Where do *YOU* think *OTHER* War Room regulars sit on the U.S political spectrum?

Possum Jenkins said:
No way. If anything, the compass represents both tactics and ideology. You could say that the x-axis represents the ideology (how equal you want society) and the y-axis the tactics (how much coercion should be involved).

What I said was that the compass is mixing up tactics and ideology (and doing it in a crude way--remember that the intention is to recruit for right-wing libertarians). So it has very similar ideologies grouped on opposite sides for no good reason.

It's not perfect. Politics isn't math, but it's better than the single-axis one.

What's better is to use the standard spectrum to describe ideology and then to add comments about tactics if necessary.
 

You butchered the post so I can't quote it in full, but even a little faith is better than none. Who knows where you'll be in the future.

The only thing I overestimated was your ability to follow simple instructions.

Why do you insists on clogging my thread up with your drivels, after I've already asked you TWICE to knock it off?

This is like Latifi complaining that the hype for Diaz/McGregor caused people to overlook his win over Villante. No offense, but people wouldn't even be clicking on this lame thread if they weren't seeing my name next to it.
 
Possum Jenkins said:
No, but the immigration and police brutality/law enforcement are. And I think those are huge because it's the oppressive state being coercive and outright violent towards citizens.

Immigration is straight GOP. Police brutality is given some lip service during presidential election season but it's just that. I guess there's too many coloreds involved with that issue so it's not THAT important.

It's early so help me out. What are you saying about Libertarians and police brutality? From their platform...

1.6 Crime and Justice

Government exists to protect the rights of every individual including life, liberty and property. Criminal laws should be limited to violation of the rights of others through force or fraud, or deliberate actions that place others involuntarily at significant risk of harm. We favor the repeal of all laws creating "crimes" without victims, such as the use of drugs for medicinal or recreational purposes, since only actions that infringe on the rights of others can properly be termed crimes. Individuals retain the right to voluntarily assume risk of harm to themselves. We support restitution to the victim to the fullest degree possible at the expense of the criminal or the negligent wrongdoer. We oppose reduction of constitutional safeguards of the rights of the criminally accused. The rights of due process, a speedy trial, legal counsel, trial by jury, and the legal presumption of innocence until proven guilty, must not be denied. We assert the common-law right of juries to judge not only the facts but also the justice of the law.

Precisely. You can lay out an argument for why you think she'll be a good president. But who the hell goes out of their way to push Hillary as an honest person that isn't a complete troll?

Jack apparently... He knows he's wrong he just can't admit it... It's really weird how far out he goes

Dude I come from 4 chan b and pol. I have seen the darkness. Those people are freaks but self admitting freaks who will admit they are odd and at times wrong.

Jack... Is well, Jack. On all my years of 4 chan b and pol, I've never seen anyone like him. Not even close.
 
It's interesting to see so many people list me as center-left given how I'm often chracterized in the midst of discussions. Ideologically I'd probably put myself fairly far to the left but that I pragmatically temper that to, at least in a European sense, being center-left in regards to where I sit on positions from a voting perspective.

I wonder how much of that is shaped by my general view that the democratic party's (sporadic) interest in pushing further gun control is both unsupported by data and politically impractical. That's about the only position I hold that isn't "left".

Can't speak for anyone else, but I stuck you there because of the way you express your POVs rather than what your POVs are. You present rational arguments and don't come across as fanatical.

But I wholly admitted I don't know how to place people on these things :) It's a gut thing.
 
Jack V Savage said:
But do you get that problem? Conflating tactics with ideology, while the compass is supposed to represent only ideology (and, again, it doesn't even work on its own terms).



Left libertarianism would also be on the complete opposite to right libertarianism. While fascism is pretty similar to right libertarianism in effect, though the justifications are very different.



Again, tactics versus ideology.

I think all this stuff gets us going in circles over definitions. The square has some use in that it helps clarify some positions on the left (tactically). But i also feel its full of shit as it is really self serving to the libertarian side. Look we are fredumb freedumb quadrant yay!!!!!!!!!!

This is all I've got, as I'm awful with names.
I don't really agree with the left/right thing.
I probably would be considered far left and far right, it just depends on the subject.
