Replying to

Can't answer this one, I don't believe there is only left and right.

Replying to

Polls have you just left of center, curious how you identify.

Replying to

I actually struggle to pin you down on the left/right spectrum. I see you as someone who is intellectually curious and willing to ask searching questions. So while my gut instinct is conservative, that's probably because I'm more liberal. You're a Rorschach test basically.

Replying to

I just love logic.

Replying to

You do not consider libertarian?

Replying to

I'm so happy to read the replies. I've listened to so many people talk politics and then be confused their policy stances and "politics" only match up in a "Team sports"/motto sort of way. I'd say I'm a libertarian socialist, I really don't think one can work without the other.

Replying to

Both of those labels refer to concepts within a classically liberal paradigm. Illiberal ideologies are gaining in popularity today. I'm illiberal, but not conservative.

Replying to

As a moderately sane person, I don't know what either of these terms mean anymore.

Replying to

I don't identify with either side as presented - depending on the topic I can appear either way. Ultimately I'd like a voluntarist society where gay couples can protect their adopted kids, marijuana farms, and brothels with machine guns. I feel you have similar values of liberty.

Replying to

What if I don't think you are conservative or liberal, and I wouldn't identify as conservative or liberal? Like based on standard conservative/liberal definitions
