My politics are WILDLY unaligned with most people on this platform.

I'm a moderate right-winger, which puts me at some polar extreme to a lot of the people here, apparently.

I love capitalism (while acking its many flaws), hate communism, hate fascism, believe in nationalised health care, don't believe in a massive state but absolutely believe in social security to a sensible degree, etc. etc.

Just because you believe in some very left wing finger wagging approach where you dictate to everyone what they must do in every aspect of their life - don't presume that everybody else here is the same as you or holds your views.

Keep that shit to yourself guys.

Oh and for the record I think the EU are _fucking awful_, sorry.

But at the same that Brexit was a MASSIVE mistake.

So shove that in your pipes and smoke it...

@pony YES, it's literally basic bitch centre-right stuff. That's what moderate means.

I am _genuinely_ quite moderate, leaning right. Conservative with a 'small C'.

I think the polarised nature of US politics leads people to think right wing = mad insane right wing shit like a lot of what the GOP seem to do...

@ljs long time ago there was some british trans lady here who happened to mention she voted for the tories (which was a questionable move maybe, but also like it was the ge with *that* dude leading the labour, so) and she got cancelled harder than if she expressed support for hitler

@pony it's so stupid, trans acceptance should include acceptance that trans people are also human beings who might you know HAVE DIFFERENT VIEWS...

Hate all that 'in group' vs. 'out group' stuff, people are people regardless of trans/not, sexual orientation, skin pigmentation, biological gender, etc. etc.

What unifies us is that we're all stuck in this fucking human tragedy where we die at the end

@ljs wish we had trains as fast as the fedi left taking away your minority status when they don't like your views

@ljs I've solved politics: my girlfriend says who I vote and then I vote that candidate. If someone asks me an opinion about politics, I'll tell them to ask from my girlfriend what I think. It's been great since the final solution.

@ljs It's just that I hate political debates even more than politics itself, which I already hate quite a bit :-) Guaranteed way to get your inner Feng shui fucked up with almost anyone is to end up discussing about the topic...
