        That's super cool. Trendy and hip. But it really doesn't say anything about what you believe or what you know. Left could be AOC and Bernie or it could be Joe Biden or it could be anything not right, or not, right. Don't mean to attack you bro! But you're gonna have to do better than that. It basically means you don't give a shit about any of this actually and you just follow whatever the politicians decide. I'm using the PC Principle voice from South Park, bro. I think the more important question, is actually WHY do you identify with a particular ideology.

          Man, always attacking others… I'll stop entering this part of the forum to just give my opinion. I'm tired of that aggressive attitude towards people who have a different opinion.

          Enjoy your "politics" forum.

            Quit acting like a baby who got hurt. Left wing doesn't mean anything, nor is it your opinion. It's like saying my favorite color is one half of the rainbow. Subliminally I think it cries out for attention, so you can get as much support as you can from the widest array of people (obviously cuz we crush you on substance - you don't justify or explain any of your opinions in a logical manner), who you will just agree with for that dopamine hit - circle jerk thing you guys do. It's called going along to get along, and it means you have nothing to say because you're too afraid to tell people the truth for fear of offending them, even though what you're doing causes even more damage. Just following the politicians because they have a D next to their name is what sheep do. This is exactly the problem on full display right now as democrats AOC and Bernie and Biden are in disagreement, so you refuse to say which side you're on, but everyone knows you can't be on both!!! You're being deceptive. I know people who's first choice was Bernie, but their second choice was Trump, and their third was Biden. They'd rather have Trump than Biden, and their considered leftist. Just pointing out that you're not answering the question. It's like saying I identify with the good guys, as if there are only good guys and bad buys, like there's only women or men. You're being anti-diversity of the mind. Are you against diversity? This is what happens when you join the left. You have to "blend in" like a chameleon cuz one wrong word out of your mouth and you're banished from eternity, ex-communicado. The original poster can be a little more extreme because extremism is the true face of leftism. He's watching you very carefully you busy little bee. At least he knows where we stand. He may have to think twice before trusting you. You could be a Judas, welcomed into the inner circle.

              If I were to say what I wanted to say, your other account will ban me. Why do you post so much and in such a hateful way that does not seem like a debate but rather a bash? Are you doing that so others will not?

              Back to the original poster's question: I have from time changed my mind on how I identify politically. Nobody's words can change my mind, only their actions and the resulting consequences can. I'm not loyal to one party or idea, just to myself. I voted for Ronald Reagan, and voted for Joe Biden.

                It's not hateful, it's called strong disagreement. It's because someone who would vote for Biden has poor judgment. The dude has done nothing in 47 years. He took money from foreign countries to do back sided deals. He supports expanding Obamacare, which cost low wage earners thousands of dollars per year. He used the N word 13 times on live tv. His son uploaded videos of himself fucking his dead brother's wife and smoking crack. He's a joke. He's too old. He's a lifelong politician. His crime bill in 1994 that hurt blacks. He's never done anything for black or gay people. He's only enriched himself in politics. You can say you are what you are, but the reason you are silent isn't because I'm hurting your feelings, it's that you can't defend yourself. You're in the mob, and you know all your friends are making sure you stay trendy. You place your values aside and instead focus on your desires. That does not a man make. A man chooses his values over his desires. A man changes things and doesn't cave to pressure. Biden is not a man. He's a corrupt global elitist who's goal is the overthrow of this country and the institution of a new world order run by a handful of communist globalist banker dictators. That's who funds global warming "science." They want a carbon tax delivered to the IMF, which means you are taxed for breathing, when carbon actually makes trees grow. It's the same people using Covid to introduce health passes and vaccination IDs. It's straight out of revelations, and whether you believe in that or not, they're making it happen, with these vaccine patents Patent # 060606, a digital tattoo. And you won't be able to buy, sell, or travel, or engage in commerce unless you obey. Joe Biden is trying to usher in this NWO plan, and you're promoting it. Why the hell anyone supports their own slavery and destruction is beyond me. It's just pure ignorance. (Consider this more of how I identify politically.) I don't censor because when I hear idiots speak, it tells me what I DON'T agree with, and therefore, what I DO agree with. But leftists don't believe in Free Speech. They're trying to bully and censor everyone around them and playing the victim card is all a typical leftist tactic. You're not a victim. You're just playing games and pretending to be a martyr. More attention seeking.

                  Interesting. Thanks for your input.

                    Despite your BS, we are not the same person.

                    If you weren't such an idiot, you would know that from the writing styles.

                      My political compass can rotate a bit depending on how gay I feel.
                      By default I hover over libertarian-right but do not commit.

                      Generally I think where it feels like there is less manipulation/deception/coercion that I prefer.

                        Yea why would Raph need a second account, he's the forum monitor admin? To make it look like he's not alone? I suggested that Bernie should be on the ballot as the candidate because of his crowd sizes, not Biden, and Raph disagreed… just one example. Anyway, I don't need two accounts because I can say everything I need with one. Like there's a conspiracy... I'm sure you can say whatever you want. Plenty of people on here have. It's just that you can't defend yourself, that's why you don't say it. You act like you're being censored or victimized, but the truth is you probably don't really know what's going on. We got logic and facts (mind). Liberals got emotion, which is like cancer (the sign is emotion driver, and also figuratively with leftist ideas). That's why they're called bleeding heart liberals, because they got their heart on their sleeve. When people act emotionally, they aren't thinking clearly. Not to mention that I have been warned.

                          Used to be left-wing Democrat until they went insane. I still consider myself liberal but Dems are too crazy so I'm currently registered as an Independent. Considering officially becoming Republican now, though, as I want to make sure the party stays populist and does not backslide towards the likes of Mitt Romney.

                            That's my story as well.

                              This really is an important topic, and I started a lot of others but wanted to bump this because someone else started it. I get tired of hearing myself! You guys should participate and quit acting like babies. If I say fuck you then just say fuck you back. Why does it have to hurt your feelings so much? If you think communism or socialism is a good thing then just say why. If I say you're stupid it doesn't mean you're stupid… It just means that you're stupid. Lol. Jesus I don't know why you babies are so kerfluffled. It's like just say what Biden did that was good. Is there anything??? No. Cool. Trump sucks. I suck too! I love thumbs down cuz it means I'm affecting someone.

                                In my opinion, the fact that you do have a ban tool and participate in the forum with the same name makes for an uneven battlefield. The constant I'm right you're wrong can make some frustrated enough to respond in such a way to get the ban. As things stand, you will always win.

                                  No you just have to make a cognizant argument, like "Why Biden isn't a communist fuckwad." Or, "Why Trump sucks donkey balls." Then just say why. I think as long as you don't call people dick suckers personally you'll be ok, but if you do it to me, I'm used to it so I give you permission.

                                    That does not work, it will get the same old I'm right you're wrong rebuttal.

                                      I have banned very few people in the 14 years I have been a staff member here.

                                      If I was a ban crazy as you claim, then a lot of people would be banned.  A lot of liberals drive me crazy, but they are still here.

                                      If your only reply to anything is "you're a fat ass ugly pig" in several posts, then you will get banned.

                                      If you intentionally take something out of context and post it (as seen in the stickied post), you will get banned.

                                      If you falsely claim that someone called you a "nigger fagot", you will get banned.

                                        Where did I state you were ban crazy?

                                        Having the tool while participating to create a negative space under the same username is not good, in my opinion. (My opinion is just that, my opinion. Not good, not bad, not wrong, not right, just simply my opinion. Outdated anyways, too late to change anything in that regard.)

                                          Why did you bring up the ban button then?

                                          I have banned less than 1 person a year, overall, for the 14 years, I have been staff here.

                                          If you read the threads in this section, even liberals have said I am unbiased in how I moderate here.

                                            Has anyone previously taken something out of context like that, or was stickyboy the very first ever? This incident is what garnered my attention to your use of the ban tool specifically.

                                            Was actively here for that recent event, and banning someone for that seemed extreme when you could have simply admonished him.
