First of all, I think it was being born into the thick of the counter culture. I had decided "hippie" was short for hypocrite by the time I was 14. Then, after I got out of the service, I tried being a leftist, and I saw that they were the most violent, biggest litter bugs, and generally the rudest and nastiest. I was mugged by reality. Children need a traditional family with traditional values, not this "anything goes" madness being pushed by the left. Everyday since about 1991, I have seen that the behavior of the so called "liberals" was, and is, increasingly disgusting, and / or pathetic on every level, and every day they reinforce my disgust towards them with their outlandish and outrageous behavior. It seems like they are completely backwards. They celebrate and applaud everything that is wrong, and they scorn everything that is right and good.

@Nimbus Thanks very much for the BA choice!
@wildbill83 I just said "They are trying to make Orwell a prophet" the other day! Everyone I know sees it plain as day. The chronically unemployed social justice warriors in the streets, and the most powerful dems in Washington are the very worst of the worst. Sometimes I still have a hard time believing they actually exist. There are some good old Roosevelt democrats down here who still love their country and hate anything approaching Marxism, but they aren't going to be democrats for very long. Mark my words, there will be a lot of people out there who say horrible things about Trump for their own safety, but will vote for him in the booth. People are afraid to admit that they support Trump in some parts of the US, because they don't want to have physical or property damage. Many of the TDS crowd are the very definition of fascist.

@wildbill83 I totally agree. I believe that the only way to fix the problem of pushing us to socialism and worse is to attack the source. That source is our schools. What else can explain why so many young people believe in socialism? We need more free market, capitalists, conservative professors to balance the socialist, commie professors. Let's bring back free speech, and get rid of safe spaces. Fix our schools, fix our country.

The more the left gets, the more they want. They want to control every aspect of our lives. They are the true dictators in politics.

@Nimbus It has gotten old with the people who’ve worked to be responsible and take care of their families and themselves.

@Nimbus They make promises, never get things fixed because their platform would be gone, and the problems continue.

The 2016 US Presidential Election when I witnessed the Democrats and HRC supporters behave in [i]exactly the manner[/i] they demanded Trump and his supporters not act when he inevitably lost.

The hypocrisy, the lies and the corruption of 'liberal' politicians and their running dogs in much of the MSM. Most of them are beneath contempt.

[i]'Tis hard (if you're sane) to attempt,
 Without getting mad or verklempt,
 To describe lefty phonies,
 Whose media cronies
 Are beneath every kind of contempt.[/i]

I grew up in a family of "yellow dog democrats", I had the most wonderful mother and father that I can imagine except that their democratic ideology directly contradicted everything they said was good and right. My father refused to consider welfare and we were dirt poor, he worked 20 hours a day during the week and about 12 hours a day on weekends. I looked around at the world I lived in and the poorest states seemed to be democratic strongholds. I grew up in West Virginia and every other highway or school or public building is attributed to Robert Byrd, but those projects were completed by out of state companies and the only benefit to the people of the state seemed to be labor for a year or two and then these people had to wait for the next election to make sure he could wrangle another pork barrel project after re-election. I watched Water Gate and the Vietnam War on the news every night as a child and decided that the first step for me should be the military, I turned 18 in 1984 and voted for the first time in that election, Reagan and Bush or Mondale and Ferraro. The democrats had liberal ideas for the military and I was on the delayed entry program when I voted and it was easy for me to pull the lever for Reagan. Since 1984, I have voted almost exclusively for independents or republicans. A few democrats have been included because I thought their message was better than their opponents but I have always shared my fathers idea that if I have to work harder to make it on my own, then so be it. The liberal idea that the government is here to take care of you is contrary to what I believe. I think people should stand for themselves and a few may fall through the cracks. Limited welfare is one ting, 180 different programs redistributing wealth is something else. I want the government out of my business, out of the schools, out of the healthcare. Out of everything except what they are constitutionally obligated to take care of.

@Roadsterrider the party would have the Constitution as it’s backbone. Any diversions from that and they wouldn’t be accepted.
wildbill83 · 36-40, M
I'd be happy with another Teddy Roosevelt; you either swear loyalty and allegiance to the USA or you're not American; no malcontents hiding behind the same Constitution they try to undermine.

What pisses me off about modern politicians, regardless of political party, is when someone impedes and/or infringes upon the Constitution, all they ever do is talk about it, they never actually do anything about it.

The same laws against slander, libel, incitement of violence, treason, etc. that apply to the rest of us are ignored if committed by anyone in congress or the press...

and in the rare cases we do try them, they hide behind legal loopholes, and spend an indefinite amount of time in judicial limbo until all the evidence disappears and the witnesses get bought off or die of old age...

Personally, I wouldn't be above using their own tactics against them. Don't go after them publicly, go after them privately and personally; start making them disappear, "accidental suicide" via two rounds to the back of the head

stick all these traitors like hillary, biden, sanders, pelosi, schumer, schiff, etc. etc. on a plane and blow them out of the sky, then take credit on behalf of one of these extremist groups like antifa; the truth would disappear in the endless bickering, accusations, counter-accusations, conspiracy theories, etc. as it always does; and like 9/11, people would soon forget what actually happened...🤔
@cherokeepatti There should be a 3% party.

The crazy people. Political measurements can be performed comparatively...and compared to all the nuts out there, I am VERY conservative.

@Nimbus When the radicals who want to destroy this country are forced to live in the chaos they are creating and their children are not safe, or are dead, they will scream loudly, as they do now, and blame the Republicans for the horrifying mess they have made of our beautiful country.

In the meantime, so-called political correctness has turned this country upside down, and all we can smell now is radical a$$.
@4meAndyou I would define you as what a liberal truly should be! Common sense compassion, sensible social justice, and responsible stewardship! (Ain't I just wonderful with the alliteration?) 💓 [b][c=#BF0080] I should be a fecking gazellionaire! [/c][/b]

@puck61 Yes, you should be. 😂

Being in touch with leftists and realising that they are either lazy bums who want to live on state money, or embittered people who are sick of their lives and blame 'the system' instead of accepting their mistakes.

Last election I became a wiki voter. I went to Wikipedia and searched for all the candidates I would be voting on, congressmen and senators with more than 2 terms under their belt were dismissed. I did the same with presidential candidates, Cruz, Kasich, Hillary, Bernie, Biden, and all the rest have been in politics for 20-30-40 years, if they haven't fixed anything in decades, why would I vote for a promotion for them.
TeirdalinFirefall · 31-35, M
I'm pretty far left. I love watching the chaos, and telling my friends and family whenever something insane happens in the news.

There'd be nothing to talk about otherwise.

Hillary Clinton basically calling everyone she doesn't like Russian agents as of late, and how the military put out that incels at the Joker movie were a violent organization was just so~

The stupidity of the lying Baby-trump and his obedient followers who think they are conservative because Baby-trump claims he is while he and they don't believe or practice anything resembling being a conservative.

I'm becoming more and more neutral to be honest, due to the idiocy of both the left and the right.

@SW-User That's interesting when one is almost forced by media pressure to adopt one or the other.

@MistyCee Have you gotten your first Trickle Down check yet?? Those were supposed to be cut for us in 1981. How much did you get??
@anythingoes477 I was in high school in 81.

I never really bought into Reaganomics, but I did generally like the idea of intelligently restricting the size of the federal government.

I'm not much of a conservative, honestly, and if I was, I'd be "human scum" I guess, but I answered the "more conservative" thing pretty honestly in terms of my life experience during the 80s and Reagan/Bush I.

When I discovered the auction mart. Suddenly the economy made sense.
The far right movement into Fascism, racial hatred, insensitivity to the poor, sick and children has pushed more people to the left than the left could have ever attracted on it's own merits.
Nimbus · M
@anythingoes477 Good point.

There are so many elements it is difficult to identify with any particular ideology in itself.
Carver · 31-35, F
I’ve always been a bit conservative, but I’d never identify as such. However, that doesn’t mean I identify as a liberal either. And definitely not a fucking leftist, lol.
Nimbus · M
@Carver That sounds well reasoned 👍️

@Nimbus depending on who you talk to I'm a libtard or an idiot right winger... In our political climate, here ,it's not thought highly of to think for yourself anymore.
