I’m very moderate. Extremely liberal on social issues and fiscally conservative.

The left has lost it to a bunch of socialist loons.

I guess I am a moderate. I believe in an amicable split of the nation over civil war.


Seriously though, where the hell is this far right I keep hearing about? I don't think their numbers are significantly greater than they have ever been.


Furthermore, whatever exists of "the far right" has no power or influence. None.

The Far Left is more dangerous to the country, but regardless I find myself to be a moderate.

The “I am a moderate/Independent” claims amuse me. The majority who have made this claim side 99% with the left on every issue.

I don’t take many of you seriously because you folks can’t even be honest about your politics/ideology. As if saying your moderate but pushing left leaning policy gives it more credibility.

One of the biggest problems in political discourse and understanding each other these days is that in practice, for most, the traditional exclusive labels dont really apply any more. There are more complex issues, events, and circumstances that require a new level of critical thinking. Anyone who can simply say they are unwaivering one-word a, b, c or d options may not doing enough of the aforementioned.

People that consider themselves moderate are considered leftist by most on this board.

You can decide for yourself if they are actually leftist or just considered that way on this board.

I’m not a moderate. I am fully for no regulation, licensing, and a completely free market. I’m also for the government’s only purpose to protect life liberty and property.

And that means trump is a really crappy president just like Obama and bush and the others before dating back to the 1920s

Moderates are a virus to this country. Just like the liberals are.

Hard to say. Liberals in the northeast are far more hostile to my opinions than conservatives in the south are. That said, the stuff typed at me by Polibaws is far more hostile than anything I’ve had said to me, and that includes ex-girlfriends and dudes whose girlfriends I boinked, but I think that’s mostly just stuff dumb people say when they’re too scared to say it to anybody’s face.

I’m solidly conservative, but if the two extremes are Polibaws and east coast skyscreamers, I’m moderate.

There are very few true conservatives on this board. Most participants here support the following:

Gay Marriage
Legalized Weed
Legalized Shrooms
Decriminalized heroin use
Abortion on demand (as long as the human baby doesn't have a heartbeat)


Nothing wrong with it, they're just not conservatives.

There are NO far right players in Congress....but plenty of far lefties.

I am a conservative on most issues, with moderate view of early term abortion. Which still seems conservative as I do believe in individual freedom. But it still sickens me so many use abortion as birth control. Where is the responsibility for ones’s action in that?

This board is extreme far right. It’s actually fascinating seeing an echo chamber form so easily. I’d expect it to be right given the makeup of LA but it’s extreme even for the Deep South.

They aren't a danger to freedom.
They are, however, a danger to to our collective intelligence.
