Nobody Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I'm reading it, but one thing bothering me, and this isn't related to idealogy or political views at all, is viewing people as sheeps, as if just throwing a bunch of stuff at them will make them think a certain way.

Nobody Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) i don't think i'm a centrist based on this classification honestly. when people say centrist they seem to mean stuff like "herp derp both sides", "right wing is wrong but so is the left", "bigotry is wrong but so are sjws xD" and stuff like that, or just apolitical people. I'm none of those. I think on this classification i'd be at "liberal". Which is exactly what I am. i'm the sort of "liberal" actual socialists complain about because I dont want to end capitalism.

Nobody Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 finished reading and there wasn't much in the article tbh. Like, I expected games with guns to be more liked among conservatives and I always 100% knew the gaming community wasn't particularly more right winged than people as a whole. This narrative was always dumb, and just happened because every group has disgusting people and people who play games use the internet a lot, where people all showcase their worst.

Tryhard Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 are you saying you're not big brain radical centrism but yeah, I was pretty sure that the conservative nature of gaming communities was rather overstated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tryhard Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) it's more like it's hard to justify social conservatism these days because those ideas are always genuinely awful. so that's like almost one half of politics already gone because you're kind of an idiot if you're still against gay marriage. so now you just have economics. but i still ain't gonna agree with the communists and anarchists, even if i dislike authoritarian conservatism much more Edited January 16, 2019 by Tryhard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think republicans are CANCER and if the US wants to progress they have to vote for democrats in EVERYTHING, and that 99% of the time democrats and republicans disagree the democrats are right, but as we all know, democrats aren't really lefitists and neither are most center-left parties in europe, which I think are good. So yeah, I'd never describe myself as a "centrist" without more time to explain myself. Like, I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with stock-market, big-businesses, that banks r evil, whatever. I'm a firm believer of mainstream economics and balanced budgets. But like, people without anything can't live without state assistence, welfare is extremely important as are public services, i believe that regulations are very much needed and high progressive taxation is the most fair thing to go. I think Social-liberal is what one could call me if they're so insistent on political labels. I don't know a lot about the UK politics, but I guess you could say I'd fit in the lib-dems 13 minutes ago, Яei Яei said: GOTCHA idgi Edited January 16, 2019 by Nobody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
