Political orientation poll

DontTreadOnSnek · 2017-04-28T12:16:54+00:00

Fiscal conservative, socially a classical liberal - probably puts me closest to libertarian on the spectrum

Herdsengineers · 2017-04-28T11:39:05+00:00

Conservative/libertarian here. I like my guns too much for anything else.

BargainBinBoyfriend · 2017-04-28T15:03:16+00:00

Atheist, don't like morality influenced by religious views influencing policy. Big enviornmentalist. Pro universal health care. Balance the budgets. Restrained foreign policy. Tighter immigration. Anti political correctness.

fcmcmvii · 2017-04-28T11:19:55+00:00

I identify as Trans-conservative

DarkuSchneider · 2017-04-28T12:11:43+00:00

Libertarian I guess is the closest. I was raised very conservative and was more anarchist in my youth because I hated the stuffy old fucks. Some things I am conservative on others more liberal but more conservative as I got past 30s. People peg me as Libertarian frequently but I do not agree with them either wanting to dismantle ALL of government. Like one candidate wanted to shut down ANSI, as an Engineer without standards most of the shit made could not exist like the internet.

It's a tough game playing center now days. Anyone who is too far left or right frequently finds themselves one minute agreeing with me to debating/hating me because I take all they can give and have made girls cry and have to run to their safe space. I am just coldly pragmatic like my robots perhaps. I live in a notoriously liberal region. Trump's election almost made me fat from all the popcorn I ate as I watched the city meltdown. I voted for Jill Stein as a strategic fuck you vote. Clinton was going to win my state no matter what because of one city in this state controls everything due to the population distribution. She took my state with a commanding lead with 2-3 counties and the rest were hard Trump in the rural areas but still beat him 3-1. I got my start in politics working on Ross Perot's campaign and am old enough to remember just why the Clintons are a fucking cancer to humanity.

So I figured for fun I would vote green party. Jill Stein was a nutter but her brand of crazy could be easily contained or negotiated with unlike Clinton or Trump as they are both type-A personalities; plus she was not going to win in all likelihood, Trump was inevitable. I knew based on the campaign Trump supporters if he won would be hunted in the streets, they did not disappoint my predictions as I watched with my own eyes young university feminists beat up women in the streets for 'betraying women' by voting Trump. I get to trigger them by fearlessly admitting not voting for Clinton but shut down their stupid 'x-isms' gaslighting. I would just say 'well my candidate was a woman who was a doctor and actually provided value at some time to the community instead of feeding off it like a leech most of their life. Her running mate was a minority and civil rights activist. If you are so progressive why were you supporting yet another establishment rich white woman and a good old boy?' The white guilt sword cuts both ways ;p I also remind them Clinton won our state and my vote does not matter in their majority rules version of US democracy. Watching the crossed wires in their heads meltdown is priceless. When I was younger trolling ultra conservatives was entertaining but they are salty. Neo-liberal tears are sweeter, more intoxicating than mead.

BargainBinBoyfriend · 2017-04-28T14:58:35+00:00

Contrary to conventional wisdom (at least what I've read), this place is very diverse ideologically. Good.

Ackcell · 2017-04-28T12:27:02+00:00

Socialist here. Higher taxes but more benefits.

clint_bronson · 2017-04-28T11:05:39+00:00

Anyone who votes for liberal/socialist has yet to take the redpill quite honestly.

TheRedStoic · 2017-04-28T11:07:49+00:00

I'm a libertarian, economically more conservative, plus I have a bit of a nationalist bent.

Voted libertarian, so what's the goal with this poll op? Pure curiosity or collecting stats for something?

growthup · 2017-04-28T13:16:00+00:00

I wouldn't say I am Liberal (although it's the closest on this list so I picked it).

I am far Left-Wing economically, but socially I am pretty centrist.

NihilistMonkey · 2017-04-28T18:49:27+00:00

Anarcho communist, voted Libertarian since it's the closest to my beliefs

Disciple_of_Libertas · 2017-04-28T11:12:43+00:00

Libertarian/ Civic Nationalist. Voted Trump because open borders are retarded.

MisterRoid · 2017-04-28T10:49:51+00:00

Libertarian comes the closest for me. I also identify as a Nationalist.

Wilder_TS · 2017-04-28T17:02:09+00:00

I think it's pretty hard to be a true Red Piller and not be Libertarian/Conservative. Since Socialists would have no issue with being divorce raped or sharing the incredible big burden society places on men for no reason. Also, the state is clearly not a good agent in helping self improvement, since it takes away your resources to give them to less deserving people. Overall I am a bit surprised by the big number of liberals here

Major_Languid · 2017-04-28T12:13:49+00:00

I'd say I'm an Conservative, but Spekr, and some other sites, said I'm a Libertarian, so I'm gonna vote that...

rigbed · 2017-04-28T12:45:27+00:00

Socially conservative definitely. Fiscally I recognize there should be fluctuation but socially we should stay conservative. However I recognize that that isn't feasible. If we oppress women women will eventually convince betas into giving them rights. Once we give them rights we see why they shouldn't have them. I'm libertarian on unique libertarian issues like guns and weed. Overall I'm a nationalist libertarian who leans far right on some issues.

PhishPhan700 · 2017-04-28T13:40:50+00:00

Nice to see so many libertarians. I consider myself to be conservative in terms of economic policy and moderate to conservative in terms of social policy. Nationalistic, Pro-Israel, Anti-Big Government ect.

dakanos · 2017-04-28T14:01:43+00:00

I'm an I-Don't-Give-A-Fuck-ist.

I just don't believe in politics.

Azzmo · 2017-04-28T14:55:56+00:00

Abstain. Fuck tribal affiliation.

This subreddit should speak for itself. Its users should not feel pressured into or out of sharing their perspectives.

SasquatchMcKraken · 2017-04-28T16:48:56+00:00

Libertarian/Conservative mix, I guess. Though I don't really like any of the labels. Center-right or "on the left wing of the right wing" would probably be most accurate. On some issues, like guns, I'm rather far-right. There aren't any issues where I'm far-left but I have a few pretty liberal views. But most of my outlook has a gentle rightward tilt.

Devius_Dios · 2017-04-28T16:49:13+00:00

Free speech and maintaining the free market are paramount to the long term success of any great power.

theONE843663 · 2017-04-28T16:50:46+00:00

Fuck politics I'm a firm supporter of reasonable dictatorship or Kingdom!

En-Zu · 2017-04-28T16:57:55+00:00

Posted this before on TRP but it's again relevant so why not.

I think the Left is generally just seen as being more accomodating to feminism and sjwing (because it is) which this sub is kind of opposed to and that's why it attracts so many right wing folks.

But I'm left wing and I don't particurly care about the sjw movement. It doesn't faze me. And that's really one way to fish out the conservative and liberal posters on this thread. The Liberal TRP perspective is more "Shrug that's just the way women are I'm glad that its in the open." Whereas the conservatives are more likely to want to go back to the Old World where policies were in place to make the BP strategy work and repress female hypergamy and sexual strategy.

Cicuta · 2017-04-28T17:37:43+00:00

The bigger the government the smaller the citizen... the more rights she has the less rights you have... what is funny is how many guys polled socialist. Here you are, Red Pilling, trying to get away from being controlled yet you support a form of government which is exceeded in control only by communism.

patri0t556 · 2017-04-28T17:46:11+00:00

Right-wing populist/American nationalist/paleoconservative

NeoreactionSafe · 2017-04-28T19:59:28+00:00

Truth isn't identified with a label.

The Trivium Method means you gather all data, then use your own thinking to form a judgement.

Watch this (Mark Passio):

https://youtu.be/g9iZAzHxc7M

Herd animals accept labels... we are supposed to be beyond that level.

Even Neoreaction has a saying:

"There are no enemies to the right."

...which refers to the (Blue Pill) Overton Window always moving left.

Anyone not headed towards deeper myths (Blue Pill) and instead towards Truth (Red Pill) is not to be considered one of our enemies.

The intensity of Truth (clarity) is all that matters... no enemies towards the Truth.

Med_rapper · 2017-04-28T20:46:50+00:00

Bro classifying socialist, liberal and marxist in one group is intellectually dishonest. Now I have to vote libertarian.

Raikkonen716 · 2017-04-28T20:48:39+00:00

Welfare is for pussies. I am a self made man and want to become an entrepreneur. I don't want the government to help me, i just want to do my own business (literally). I don't want high taxes so i have to pay for some loser that can't get his shit done by himself.

call_of_the_mastodon · 2017-04-28T21:07:10+00:00

didnt realize there were so many redpill Liberal bros out there . Fuck yea !

SanjayMethylPump · 2017-04-28T21:56:34+00:00

I identify as moderate conservative with isolationist tendencies and I worship the free market. Rand Paul is my guy.

For my socialist friends let me ask you, go live in a socialist country that is not under the defense and deterrence umbrella of the US-NATO and tell me it's a good life. It's not a terrible life but there's limited options and motivation, often huge corruption. Lower mobility because the system has more control.

I support government intervention in order to foster the conditions for competition and investment and to prevent economic collapse, also a healthy and strong workforce but this safety net does not mean given shit to people for just being people. It also doesn't mean government intervention should be default. In fact it must be reserved for last case. Like using a credit card. On some level responsibility and individual choice brings joy and wisdom. Take that from people and they lapse into nihilism and decadence

Every major capitalist society needs a minimum safety net or a social insurance program but that isn't free and power and corruption always coagulates under any system. In socialist countries the most powerful are those who are connected to the government or labor councils. Everyone else has minimal say and their opportunity is limited. All these universal programs cost a shit ton and many of these countries with universal everything cut back massively on other discretionary spending like military. The US is the deterrent for all those Western European and Asian tiger countries, they don't need to spend money on their defense as much and likewise they often piggy back on US R&D so their healthcare and education costs are a fraction. Nothing in life is free kiddos.

SanjayMethylPump · 2017-04-28T22:07:21+00:00

Also OP, US liberals are pro capitalism but also pro limited safety net programs. They have an individualist outlook and are generally pro intervention abroad. The far left (Sanders type) are socialist. Often they both vote democrat but there's a huge difference between bill Clinton (center left) and Bernie sanders

1by1is3 · 2017-04-29T01:30:15+00:00

For: -Capitalism, free market, free trade, pro immigration, pro globalization. -Limited government -Pro universal healthcare, support strong environmental laws

Against: feminism, socialism, nationalism, nazism.

Unsure: While I am for lower taxation, I don't mind progressive taxation upto a reasonable level. I also believe that keeping the majority of the people happily fed is the key to building a wealthy society, because a happily fed working class will result in a stable society and stability is good for business. So some form of welfare is necessary.

pellrid · 2017-04-28T14:45:17+00:00

Having a live count is the worst idea ever, man. You do know, that however "redpilled" an individual is, that person will always be biased towards the majority's opinion. It's human nature.

This poll isn't a representation of individuals' personal political views, no matter how many exceptions there are.

I myself had to debate my own views, seeing how many people voted for other political ideas.

Bad poll.

Pokeylaw · 2017-04-28T16:53:51+00:00

I can't fucking believe we have a 110 socialist here. Just wow and here I thought the people in TRP were intelligent

_MysticFox · 2017-04-28T16:50:22+00:00

Socially conservative, fiscally liberal

Wolfgang985 · 2017-04-28T23:06:48+00:00

If you're still classifying yourself as economically conservative or libertarian, then you willfully ignore the entirety of American economic performance over the past few decades.

Economically liberal =/= Socially liberal. Please stop treating the two as complimentary traits.
