I've jumped around on the political spectrum quite a bit

2019-09-25 10:55:20 UTC  

I believe what displaced me from the perspectives I once harbored was direct exposure to the doctrines which motivated the production of the propaganda I had been consuming throughout my younger years.

2019-09-25 10:55:30 UTC  

you inconsistent peice of shit, get somr principles

2019-09-25 10:55:53 UTC  

So, with this, it provided me context.

2019-09-25 10:56:12 UTC  

It's because whenever I realise I'm apart of an ideology I reject it

just three years ago when i was 16 i was most likely a socialist if i actually followed politics

2019-09-25 10:56:43 UTC  

So, this came with my first induction into Sociology, one of my majors when I first began attending college at 16, @Samaritan™.

2019-09-25 10:56:53 UTC  

now im a filthy centrist

2019-09-25 10:57:10 UTC  

Then, I got heavily into economics.

2019-09-25 10:57:24 UTC  

Along with civics.

2019-09-25 10:57:31 UTC  

It was like a cleansing wave washed over me.

2019-09-25 10:57:44 UTC  

she looked pathetic on that stage

2019-09-25 10:57:45 UTC  

I was into both also

2019-09-25 10:57:48 UTC  

Jeremy's one of those rite-whing extremists

2019-09-25 10:58:23 UTC  

I still debate whether centrism is real there is also an ideology at the top of the hierarchy of values

2019-09-25 10:58:38 UTC  

Radical right-wing. So radical I'm a Classical Liberal, and an Objectivist.

<:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

2019-09-25 10:58:58 UTC  

I almost guessed the latter

2019-09-25 10:59:00 UTC  

I'm a classical liberal, Jeremy, that makes us literally Nazis

2019-09-25 10:59:01 UTC  

Didn't you know?

2019-09-25 10:59:11 UTC  

Centrism doesn't exist, Sam.

2019-09-25 10:59:25 UTC  

Yeah my point

2019-09-25 10:59:41 UTC  

So far right, you have gone beyond and made it to the far left.

2019-09-25 10:59:47 UTC  

asking a child about politics is like expected your dog to know how to dance the can-can first try

2019-09-25 10:59:52 UTC  

I'm probably more economically left than Jeremy

2019-09-25 10:59:55 UTC  

But people like to debate it

2019-09-25 11:00:13 UTC  

The left and right fundamentally disagree, and to differentiate between the two, opting for centric policy that creates a fascist economy is incorrect.

2019-09-25 11:00:45 UTC  

We disagree on the value of self-ownership.

2019-09-25 11:01:02 UTC  

That is, arguably, the most important.

2019-09-25 11:01:03 UTC  

I don't feel like my politics are easy to nail down because they are influenced by multiple ideologies

2019-09-25 11:01:06 UTC  

thats a weird thing to say

2019-09-25 11:01:36 UTC  

i dont see how there can be a disagreement of self-ownership unless youre a fascist

2019-09-25 11:01:39 UTC  

Mind you, this is in the context of my country's domestic politics.

2019-09-25 11:01:54 UTC  

I’m mostly left except for immigration tbh

2019-09-25 11:02:24 UTC  

This is one of the first discussions about our actual politics I've had on this god forsaken server

2019-09-25 11:02:32 UTC  

I’m pretty much right wing on most issues

2019-09-25 11:02:37 UTC  

Oh and free speech and most economics

2019-09-25 11:02:51 UTC  

unless you're going to delineate left/right by socialism/capitalism, then left/right is a silly division

2019-09-25 11:02:54 UTC  

You likely are, @Eccles. To be clear, I'm for the separation of state and economy.

2019-09-25 11:03:10 UTC  

i dont like the thought of aligning with a group
