I'll be honest, arguing with people on the left feels exactly like arguing with people on the right, and that's why I guarantee we're headed for the worst of all possible scenarios.

    Centrism is literally the position that all of the genocide committed by your society is totally fine and acceptable and nothing needs to change. You're headed for the worst of all possible scenarios for you. But the rest of the world will eventually dismantle the Eurocentric empire, and that means rematriating wealth and land to the people it was extract from. Necessarily that means all of the Eurocentric world will regress financially and regress in terms of influence and power, but that's what's required for healing.
