I’m hoping this doesn’t start a fight, I’m just curious what the political orientation is of this community. I grew up in a liberal (in the American sense) family, and I identify now as a socialist, though a lot of the liberalism I grew up in has stuck with me, like interest in LGBTQ and women’s rights, environmentalism, etc. Wondering where people here land?
Rather far left both economically and socially, but I actually understand that progress takes step by step effort and screaming that you want everything done now doesn’t get you anywhere. Also, purity tests of “follow every one of my beliefs or you’re evil” are dumb and unhelpful when you’re discussing where people are on the left.
Oh, and I think tankies are morons.
