These days I am more left-leaning on the social issues, but conservative when it comes to fiscal policy.

Does this make me centre-right, a centrist or centre-left?

I think Liberal conservative best describes me.


Liberal conservatism is a political ideology combining conservative policies with liberal stances, especially on economic, social and ethical issues, or a brand of political conservatism strongly influenced by liberalism.

What about you?

Independent for myself. I have the freedom to choose whatever policies are best for humanity.

OP why would you put yourself in a box? Why label yourself?

I think liberal conservative best describes my political ideology -- as in what I believe.

Sorry for the confusion, ideology is different from affiliation.

So when it comes to affiliation, either left or right depending on the candidate... Does that make me an independent?

I'd be more inclined to vote left if it were someone like Bill Clinton or Obama... More establishment and more centre-left... Opposed to an extremist type like Bernie.

My immediate family is very liberal on some issues but very conservative on others. For example, marijuana. It's looked at as the Devils drug to my family. I remember when my mother and father found out I smoked weed they were stressed the fck out.

I'm against recreational marijuana but I'm for medical use.

Abortion? The only thing I don't have an answer for.

Guns? I think people should legally be allowed to have guns in their house but not be able to legally carry.

Military? I think we should spend as much as possible on military power and strength.

When I take the political quizs it finds me left leaning but not too much left

I want to say I'm a Democrat to a certain extent.

Immigration? I think DACA recepients should have a pathway to citizenship if they're in good standing. They contribute to the economy and pay taxes without a criminal record otherwise they would be declined DACA. My biggest stance tbh.

Because of that it finds me left leaning otherwise I would probably be tossed into a more conservative position. I guess liberal conservative?

Libertarian/Constitutionalist -- but I don't affiliate myself with the Libertarian Party because they have no idea how to present themselves without looking or being ridiculous.

I support limited government and laissez faire capitalism. Everybody can live their life how they want as long as it doesn't impact the ability of others to do so.

Leads to personal responsibility, innovation, and prosperity.

Independent for myself. I have the freedom to choose whatever policies are best for humanity.

This is what I've always said. It really depends on the particular issue.

I'm a mixed bag politically. Civil Rights are obviously paramount for a civilized nation but should not cater to a minority demographic i.e. trans bathrooms, sports. etc. Basically, as long as you're not being discriminated by your job or public places, have the right to marry and still maintain power of attorney and basic shit, just stfu and eat your pie in whatever environment you choose.

I would describe myself as formerly a left-leaning moderate who is now more of a mildly conservative moderate.

I'm pro Second Amendment but not unreasonable to more regulations and safe guards.

I hate abortion as an act; I consider it highly immoral in most cases yet do not think the government should be able to tell someone what to do to their body.

Capital Punishment is something I've been against most of my life but I do think there are obvious circumstances where it can be acceptable.

I'm pretty fiscally conservative and highly against socialism outside of the basic forms we already use (highways, public schools, etc.) I do feel we should cut some military spending and putting it more practical domestic plans

I dunno, it really depends on the circumstances of the case study but I will say:

The lefties and their ultra wack nonsense for the last half decade have pushed me over to the right more or less but not some partisan gang member.

GD wannabe intellectuals wanna talk microaggressions yet are perfectly okay with micromanaging the minutia of basic human interactions and truths :coleman:

I support a limited federal government, but I feel like local communities should have more resources.

I don't know anybody close to me who is gay but I actually have somebody "close" to me who is trans.

Gay at least makes some sense, you can love whoever the fk you want. But Trans? That shit makes no sense to me, that is just a whole next level of nonsense. How do you say i have a dick but nah im a girl. Kinda shit is that :wtf:
