This leads him to advocate things considered very extreme and wacky for a centrist, like gassing half the Jews as a compromise between gassing no Jews and gassing all of them. He is the mascot of Polcompball.

This article is about the mascot of the subreddit and the strawman of Centrism. For other uses, see Centrism.


Dead Centrism is a ball inhabiting the exact center of the political compass. He believes the best solution to all problems is an exact compromise between two extremes.

This leads him to advocate things considered very extreme and wacky for a centrist, like gassing half the Jews as a compromise between gassing no Jews and gassing all of them. He is the mascot of Polcompball.


How to Draw

  1. Draw a ball
  2. Split the ball into four separate quadrants with light black (#141414) lines
  3. Fill in the quadrants clockwise starting at the top left in the following order: pale red (#FF6262), pale blue (#00B1FF), pale yellow (#FFFF80) and pale green (#00FF88)
  4. Draw a dark red (#CC0000) circle in the middle of the four quadrants
  5. Add the eyes and you're done!
