It looks like unintentional moderate and intentional moderate on chart switched, unless I'm misunderstanding?

hey thanks for reading! I believe that's right

intentional moderate = they're trying to straddle the middle, meaning they adjust views based on political swings

unintentional moderate = they accidentally end up in the middle from the average of their views, for which some may be extreme left or right
