    How do you define left and right? I’d be considered hard left by American standards but probably slightly right of centre in Scandinavia.

      I define left as socialism, anti men, modern feminism, American Democrat, pro Palestine, anti Isreal, pro abortion

      Right I consider conservative American republican pro Trump, pro traditional values, pro life

      However I changed my mind on ask a conservative bc mods and admins would just use it to ban conservative users so I’d rather not single anyone out

        So what if someone was anti Palestine/pro Israel, pro LGBTQ, socialist when discussing financial law, libertarian when discussing personal freedoms, pro firearm (with completion of a hunting and marksmanship test), pro choice, pro democracy, pro small business, pro high speed rail, pro biofuels, pro work from home, etc…

        Basically I live by the mantra “my freedom ends where yours begins”.

          Possibly libertarian?

          It also comes down what people identify as too. Like I consider myself on the right, but I’m also pro choice to a certain degree, I’m not anti gay, and as far as the war in Israel, I’m anti death for both sides. With that one In particular, I don’t like that people are picking sides as to who’s lives are valued more. I’m also pro small business.

          So 🤷‍♀️
