SOCIALIST!!!
I had a motorcycle and got bored with it in less than a season. I also don't do mini-vans. But I picked mini-van because I prefer four wheels.
interesting, but some of the forced choices are sometimes bizarrely unrelated...
This also misses some of my more extreme positions--such as strongly disliking and wishing to greatly inhibit any large organizations...
I'm 85 percent liberal...
Hardcore left-wing...

That means I must become Baghdad Bob if the socialist Democrats win.

Your political views:
I also picked mini-van, purely for safety reasons.
I see them in your initial post...twice. lol
I'm sure that makes you a flaming liberal...
If that's how you vote sure. I don't look at party when I vote. I listen for what I agree with.

I just react negatively to loss of economic and personal freedom. Primarily the Nanny state mentality and pro big government There are better ways.I always knew there was a soft, mushy bleeding heart under that contrarian conservative facade. Let it out, Nowhere!
Everything else like equality, income disparity, out of control corporations, healthcare and the ecology I am very supportive and positive towards provided only if it's done right and proper without the need for knee-jerk legislation.
Otherwise I'll rip it down like a rabid dog wearing a red maga hat.
I see no pictures of my ex-wife in this thread.

I came out as mildly left wing 60:40, even though I have been a UK Conservative voter most of my life. But I think this is an American test. I always feel the political spectrum in the USA is to the right of that in Europe, so I suppose I could out left of centre on a US scale.

I thought I would be more left wing, but then I prefer country music and living in the country.
30 years ago, in America, there were both liberal and conservative Democrats, and liberal (well, moderate really) and conservative Republicans...both parties have participated in practicing bipolar politics...
however, I find my politics not matching either party's platforms...I am not a moderate, but most of my preferences are far outside any "middle" between the two extremes...
I understand. The thing is, I reject this right-wing framing we're so often told that deregulated markets and businesses equals "economic freedom." It doesn't. Requiring our employers to pay us enough to live makes us freer. Enforcing standards of how we're to be treated by at work makes us freer. Enforcing standards that prevent vendors from selling us food or other products that will kill us or poison our environment makes us freer. There is of course a balance, I dont want a North Korea-style dictatorship. But the diagnosis of what gives or takes away "economic freedom" is not as simplistic as "government bad."
