So how is it the liberals are constraining free thought? I would have posted this in reference to original post, except yet another name caller has blocked me. Ah, civility.

It’s curious to read the responses to this post. Curious that the open question was downvoted too.

I’d say by European standards I’m Conservative, but in America I’d probably considered a moderate. I lean towards Conservative policies but I don’t vote for the same party every election if I don’t agree they have the best policies or the right people aren’t placed in certain positions. Which is fine - it’s a political party, not a sports team.

I suppose this post is challenging to answer because there’s creative policies but also extremism at both points of the spectrum.
