Are you a moderate or do you lean left or right (Poll)?

[impuretrash]

Hardcore right, I don't want a government. It seems like most people need one so I have ti tolerate it.

I even enlisted to serve it against the jihad only to have bed wetting libturds undermine it.

Anarchy has historically been recognized as a left wing position.

Only by complete imbeciles or euroweenies.

The correct perspective is nanny state bed wetters like you on the left with your authoritarian genocidal sociopath cults of personality, and libertarians who keep their foot on the throat of government on the right.

Haha, Sure, so explain how Anarchy would keep Law & Order, crack down on Illegal Immigrants, crack down on Abortion, crack down on Illicit drugs, maintain the border security, crack down on Porn, crack down on Prostitution, regulate Hollywood, regulate the media for more Conservative values?

Think of this. It's like a circle. We want to be at the bottom center. Not too much of one or the other. We need a little Anarchy and a little Chaos but in small doses to make life interesting. Each side leads back to the top center to Chaos and Anarchy. Both are arrived at through a different path but they are the same thing.

Nah.

ALL right would be authoritarian, total order. Strict rules governing all facets of life. The state rules all.

ALL left would be like Mad Max, total anarchy. Child slaves and feudal warlords. Only the strong survive.

Here is mine.

One can't get more centrist or moderate than this.

Do the test I linked to. It's much more informative.

I did. Now, look at mine and explain it to me. I am sure there is something there I really don't want to know and you are itching to tell me.

Constructivism vs Essentialism is mostly about race, gender roles and sexuality. Except for the one question about whether scholars or "the people" define a language. I sided with scholars on that one.

The rest are pretty much self explanatory.

Yes I am in that test 88% Essentialism and 7% Constructivism and NO NO NO NO NO NO a BIOLOGICAL MAN can NEVER be a WOMAN, and Gender IS NOT a Social Construct. We need to DESTROY these SJW Insects that promote this insanity.

You do realize that Zena the Warrior Princess was Gay and died a virgin never passing on her gene pool, don't you. At least Wonder Woman got laid.

No I did not realise any of that. I myself have given birth to five kidlets, they are ages 6, 4, 2 years 5 months, 2 years 5 months and 7 months. 3 boys and 2 girls = me passing on my gene pool.

Until all things would come to a head and chaos would come to be. Sort of like the Chaos in a war torn Middle Eastern Country. Your strong government would fail and it would become exactly the same as anarchy with the war lords, etc..

Someone who doesn't understand or care about the issues more like.

Swing-voters could be considered "moderate", in my view. Conversely, people who vote their party 100% of the time are NOT "moderate".

Or maybe, Swing-voters like myself, are tired of being gouged by both parties, and are looking for more extremist positions like Fascism.

/——/ you deserve to live in a fascist country, but leave the rest of us alone.

Nah. The right typically espouses limited government and lower taxes. If the right were to follow that path to its extreme, we would have little to no government.

Although there are exceptions. I have no doubt that the religious right would like to impose their moral belief system on the rest of society. Obviously, the power of the religious right has waned considerably over the years.

 

[Andylusion]

No such thing as a moderate. You either have beliefs or you don't.

I would consider a "moderate" as a person who has no hard political affiliation or loyalty and who can be persuaded to vote in either direction.

I do not buy that. A moderate is an idiot.

Voting for someone who has a different party affiliation, has nothing to do with being a moderate. You could be a hard core lefty, or righty, and change who you vote for.

For example: Say you hear some Democrap saying that the minimum wage will drastically improve everyone's lives. So you vote for a Democrap.

Then they jack up the minimum wage, and you see that people lose their jobs. The next election you vote Republican, because you know jacking up the minimum wage harms people.

That's not you being a moderate. That's you going from being ignorant and fooled into support bad policy, to being educated, and making a better choice.

Equally, say I know jacking up the minimum wage will harm people, and I happen to be in an election where the Republican supports jacking up the minimum wage, but the Democrap does not. Then I would vote for the Democrap.

That's not me being a moderate. I am rigidly supporting my ideological views as a right-winger. There is nothing moderate about it.

Now if you are telling me, that you are not voting based on the issues, or an ideological view.... then what are you voting based on?

Nothing. And that makes a moderate, and idiot.

The clearest example was the Al Gore kiss in 2000.

New polls show Al Gore pushing ahead in the race for White House - and it all started with a very public embrace with his wife Tipper at the Democratic convention. Martin Kettle in Washington reports​

US elections: It started with a kiss

So to recap, Al Gore kissed his wife. The polls jumped 5 points.

When you base who you are going to vote for, on how you feel, and what the candidate looks like, rather than the issues or policies.... you are what is known as "an idiot".

That's what a moderate is. Because if you are basing your vote on the issues and policies, you won't be waffling back and fourth on who to vote for. You won't be a "moderate".

What would you call someone who believes in the Progressive tax system, that only discretionary income should be taxed, that Abortions should only be done when needed, ie when the mothers life is at stake. Guns are everyone's right to carry with no restrictions. Gays should be free to be Gay but control themselves while in public. Men's room is for those with dicks. Those without dicks can use the other one. War should only be fought if necessary to accomplish a specific goal benefiting America, and it should only last as long as it needs to kill who it needs to kill then get out of there. Let someone else come in and clean up the mess afterwards. NK capital and all their nukes should be destroyed using the Airforce and the Navy. The Marines come in later to mop up and ensure we got them all. Israel should be free to wage war against Iran. Jerusalem is the Capital of Israel. And we stop giving money we borrowed from China to other people. You shouldn't be a lender if you are already a borrower. Other than that live and let live.

That is my definition of a Moderate.

Since nobody replied yet I'll add State funded Education centers. Get the Federal Government out of Education. State funded Medicaid and Medicare. Again get the Federal Government out of it. Maybe even State funded Healthcare depending on your state. Federal Government should stay out of States business.

Sounds pretty conservative to me. Does not seem moderate much at all.

I do see some left-wing influence a little. Like that messed up view of "discretionary income". All income is 'discretionary'. You can choose to live in such a way that you have very little left-over from your basic expenses, or you can live in such a way that you have a ton. My combined utilities costs, are very low. Because I choose to live that way. I think my total utilities bill was just $60 last month.

How much it costs to eat, is determined by how you eat. If you go to starbucks every morning, and go to fast-food joints every day, then your 'discretionary' income will be lower.

Same with housing. Back in the day, we had guys at my work, that rented a house together, and it was barely $200 a person rent. My first apartment was tiny, and I paid only $300 a month for it. How much you pay to live somewhere is very flexible.

Point being, by that standard, a filthy rich person, could pay very little tax. Because his 'discretionary' income could be low, if he's eat filet mignon for breakfast, living in a mansion, and has a heated driveway and heated outdoor swimming pool.

I put the option of "moderate" in there sort of jokingly. I thought more people would count themselves as one. I've seen some radicals on this forum call themselves "moderate" and had to laugh.

No such thing as a moderate. You either have beliefs or you don't.

Says you. Of course there is such a thing. Like I believe you’re a white trash, Jew hating, unemployed loser. In reality you should be a Democrat.

White trash lives matter.

What do you do for work? Photography?

I do odd jobs, photography, art, moving, cleaning & landscaping.

Last week, I made 500 dollars in less than 5 hours organizing junk for an old lady.

That's a fallacy.
Liberalism is limited government & Leftism is Capitalism.

right.

no government

no taxes.

and 20 minutes later the commies from china or russia march into washington and take over the country and install THEIR government.

because morons thought NO government and NO taxes was a good fkn idea.

Enjoy the communist internment camps!

Better start learning chinese or russian now

You know that the commies are an outdated notion. The Chinese are communist in name only, and the Russian CP can't garner enough votes to be part of the government.

He did actually explain it. He said "in name only". You can name the party, anything you want. That doesn't mean the name has any meaning beyond a reference to the party.

I can make a party named "The Vegan Society of the world", and go meet at a Texas Steak House.

The name is just that... a name.

The Chinese are not communist in the real sense of the word. They are very very much a Capitalist society today. No question about it.

None! I am 3rd position. Racial Socialist

Not as Right as me I am a Right-Wing Totalitarian and I look GREAT in black

Then you might be fairly close to my Authoritarian belief system. Though your apparent belief that women should have a say in politics is more centrist than me.

Oh, and I generally look best covered in the blood and gore of my enemies.

Thanks. I’ve been needing a new image to put up on the targets at the range.
