Moderate is an ideological for people who are against radical or extreme political and religious views.[1][2]
A moderate is seen as someone having a general view of things instead of an extreme one. In American politics, a moderate is someone who has a centre position on the left–right political spectrum.
Social movements may also be categorized on the basis of the general character of their strategy and tactics; for instance, whether they are legitimate or underground. The popular distinction between radical and moderate movements reflects this sort of categorization.
