Politics (viewpoints)
I am an Independent- Left Wing Paleoconservative (ex GOP branch), Social Democrat (Podemos variant), Militant Moderate (i.e Liberal-Conservative Populist I am anti politics) and Post Conservative
I support republicanism and Bull Moose Progressivism
If our world or country ever ends up going 'backward' and is as conservative as it was in the 1950s or if the mid right wing or far right become as accepted, mainstreamed, influential and widespread as Liberalism currently is in our country, in that situation here is what I would do:
I would stop being a Independent (ex Republicans branch) Militant Moderate and Post Conservative and I would then be a politically syncretic mix (politically syncretic in the same way that the 2nd New Deal was politically syncretic) of being leftist ‘grifter’ (like Jimmy Dore), the type of LaRouchist that Dave Bautista/Bruce Springsteen/Chelsea Handler/Mark Hamill/Sasha Baron Cohen would be and a Liberal who would be as Liberal in that hypothetical future as I'd be if I had kept being a liberal after 2011 instead of turning militant moderate/Post conservative fused with Alt Fordism Lite and 1920s like Homeless Left (Homeless Left was between Social Democracy and Communism in the 1920s)
I'd only do this because I am a Post Conservative, Militant moderate who hates politics . Once Liberals got our world back to being liberal , I would go back to being as I am now
I am also Protestant (I used to be a Roman Catholic)
My views:
Fiscal views
I am a Social Democrat (Podemos variant), Libertarian Anarchist and Peronist
I support the Labour Party UK (Blue Labour/Friends of Israel/New Labour/Third Way/Third Way Social Democracy/Guild Socialism)
Besides me supporting Third Way Social Democracy, I also support '1990s Swedish Social Democratic Party ' like Social Democracy (ie Neoliberal Social Democracy that is Bourgeois influenced) and modern Nordic Social Democracy, the latter of which runs tight budgets and are generally very concerned with keeping debt low and running budget surpluses.
I support my economic ideolgies above mixed with the economic views below to form a mixed economy where my economic ideologies above would be given the majority of the weight but where the economic views below would be used more as social safety nets than my economic ideologies’ aboves’ social safety nets:
I support this alternative to the Neoliberalism which fuses New Zealand’s labour government’s fiscal system/a Post Neoliberal world equivalent of center right Milton Friedman-CSoE-Monetarism with the center left neoliberalism political movement from the post 1960s modern American liberalism that sometimes embraces Third Way policies/Bill Clinton Progressive Neoliberalism
I support a Ronald Reagan version of a fiscal system that can be labeled interchangeably as Democratic State Capitalism, Democratic Bureaucratic Collectivism, Democratic State Socialism, and a Democratic unique Mode of Production
I support a Social Market economy
I support a market which has elements of a free market economy (like private property, free foreign trade, exchange of goods and free formation of prices)
I don’t believe the state should be passive. It should actively implements regulative measures , ideally via state but from the state itself if that’s not practical
I support Christian Communism but only in small Christian groups of hundred or less people (see the Book of Acts).
I support more economic nationalism and economic liberalness since it is risky to do otherwise. I prefer economic nationalism and economic liberalness much more than globalization. I am also against globalism so this further makes sense. I’d also want guilds to become widespread with the same exceptions to monoply and anti trust laws they had in Europe from the Middle Ages to 19 century so those guilds would be competition for any possible corporate monopolies that might arise due to this. Guilds do much better quality of work than soulless corporations
We need some regulation on the economy. I support planned efforts to influence our economy through some organic means of a comprehensive economic policy that is coupled with flexible adaptation to market studies
I support combining monetary, credit, trade, tax, customs, investment and social policies along with other measures. This sort of economic policy aims to create an economy that serves the needs and welfare of the whole population, thereby fulfilling its ultimate goal
I was and still am a member of the Tea Party.
I only support the major planks of Barack Obama’s domestic agenda that the conservatives would have supported if they didn’t out of spite move right because of Obama (because if conservatives stayed where they were they would have accepted those planks since those planks are center right). I also support the recession reforms/bailouts that Obama made that Alex Keaton from Family Ties would have supported
I would receive a NI (needs improvement) competency assessment grade from the National Taxpayers Union though the 2000s decade version of me would get an E++ regular grade from them
We have to fight against the harmful economic inequality in the US. We have to stop the elites since they are on the opposite side of American workers
The detrimental effects of globalization and outsourcing along with the underground labor pool from illegal immigration, extravagant executive compensation, iniquitous tax cuts, rising health care costs and income stagnation are the reasons for this increasing disparity between the elites and American workers
Instead of a “transition to socialism”, we should aim for sovereign processes that limits the power of finance, transform production, ensure a wide wealth mutualistic predistribution and push for a more democratic configuration of our institutions.
I support the Gold Standard and I believe that the US should bring it back
I am mixed on the government/states regulating usury laws to protect consumers from high inflation. On one hand, unlike most intrusion, in some ways this protecting of consumers by big brother feels more humane and sincere than other forms of government and state intrusion.. On the other hand,the less government and state involved in our economic system and lives, the better.
In the 1970s, I think it was viable ok to raise interest rates. There was a lot of financial turmoil back then via inflation. People needed loans, and having the government stop them from getting them would have been a harsh move. Some lenders felt back then that usury ceilings did not protect consumers. This is because, according to them, when rates hit the ceilings, the loans dry up and consumers do not get their money. I believe this article https://aeon.co/essays/how-did-usury-stop-being-a-sin-and-become-respectable-finance gives good insight.
I am a fan of Survivalism and I think it is a good concept to live by
I am not crazy about fiat money
I am a Pacifist
I support balancing the budget as much as possible. The Us should never allow itself to get in debt as much as they do
Rich Americans should spend more money than average Americans in order eliminate budget deficits
The government should limit excessive spending in particular domestic spending
The US should reform the existing tax system
I don't believe politicians should take political donations of more than 10 dollars (give or take a few dollars)
I support Individualism
I support property rights (like Theodore Roosevelt did) and human welfare but human welfare is more important than property rights.
I support privatization
I support improvements for workers rights
I am ok with raising the personal income tax while also raising non taxable basic exemptions
I support Bitcoin workshops and I have no real issues with Bitcoin
I support the right to privacy
I support flexible inheritance taxes
I am against the Great Reset
I support limited injunctions in strikes
We need to correct the current drift of capitalism in one direction
Trickle down economics is too unreliable to be counted on by people who need it
I am against people having a sense of entitlement
We need to break the banks
I support a tax reform which shifts the burden from labor to capital and increasing taxes on the wealthiest in a way that meshes with my combined fiscal views
I am generally an Anti Communist for most forms of Communism
International Communism is evil, wrong and impractical. I want us to counter International Communism
I am Anti Elitist
I am Anti Austerity for certain countries and for the US in times of recession, depression or inflation
I am Anti Corruption
I am against Freemasonry (I am anti Mason)
I am ok with lowering the retirement age in some countries to 60 and maybe in a flexible way in the US (somewhere down the line or in distant future for the US)
I support cutting the working week to 35 hours but at the same time, giving a lot of incentives for people to work on Saturdays for people who usually don’t
For trusts and monopolies, I support trust busting that if it doesn’t work, leads to strong National regulation (and in times of crisis or for right acceleration ;permanent active Federal supervision of major corporation)
expanded fiscal
It is lamentable to see the plight of the inner city where there is stagnation, poverty, crime, and the lack of real opportunity which still affects so many BIPOC etc. But at the same time , if you’re poor and you’re white you’re out of sight. That’s why we need to help all poor people of all backgrounds and leave noone behind to truly defeat poverty
Rich people should side with the non rich over the rich. That is more important than what political party they are
Most small businesses are NOT tax cheats and Justin Trudeau was wrong to lie and say that
I support and encourage people to use bonds and to save their money in savings accounts. If war bonds come back, I would also support people using war bonds. I believe people should go to tax seminars and learn how to save their money and invest.
I support people having off shore bank accounts
The government should not increase the tax of people who profit from the sale of stocks ,bonds or real estate.
I support farm relief
I am pro Free trade. Cato Institute's Center for Trade Policy Studies would say that I have a modest protectionist and mostly pro subsidies armchair voting record
I support consumer protection
We should, if you think about it, ideally and radically break with the capitalist policies of all the main parties. I don’t see the appeal of Capitalism
While I am not a fan of Anarcho Capitalism, I do like the passionate individualism of Anarcho Capitalism (as long as it means I don't get to work)
We might need a revolution against Neoliberalism i.e systematic and institutional Capitalism but we should be pragmatic about it.
We need a strategy for these and similar revolutions not based on the working class but based on whoever is thrown into opposition to the establishment at the time – cross-class feminist movements, the LGBTQ community, environmentalists, the unemployed, etc
We need to recover public control in key sectors of the economy to ensure our freedom and small government , since the more society controls things the less the government can control things via corporations but first we must embrace Social Democracy to lay the ground work or to find an alternative
Everyone should through some just right policies have decent income and housing in a non dehumanizing way. We need to ensure everyone.
We need to raise wages but ideally not via big gov. I generally can live with unregulated wages or regulated wages. I am flexible
Furthermore, raising the Minimum wage would force full time workers into part time jobs and hurt their access to health care benefits.
We need to fight against the lobbying industry
We have to end the grip that big business has on politics
I support defaulting on the US’s debt eventually but in the mean time, I support restructuring but only after peers and creditors have some input
I am against Joe Biden's IRS bank snooping plan and bank account plan
I support tightening regulations on the US’s main utilities while controlling competition and price setting in sectors where there are still monopolies who hold a strong grip. I support this as a way to move toward nationalizing those utilities when it is practical and or uncontroversial (ymmv) to do so
socio economic
There has been sociofiscal usurption by American politicians who usurped their constitutional authority. These politicians substitute their economic and political sovereignty for the people's economic and constitutional authority and that is wrong. This sociofiscal usurption by these corrupt and selfish politicians is accomplished when they create a huge public service sector that operates in their own self interest and the interests of big business and social advocacy groups to the detirment of the middle class, workers and the apolitical rich people. This puts our nation's security in jeopardy while this happens. This sociofiscal usurption has caused our (America's) economic decline and dwindling international power. We need to prevent this sociofiscal usurption by putting politicians in office who represent us and not themselves or their self interests. We need to counter this sociofiscal corruption in our government.
I would be open to cutting SSI for people who don't need it
I support a Welfare State and Comprehensive Social Welfare that is based on my fiscal views I have above.
My view on Health Care, Obamacare, Medicare for All etc are based on two or more of the fiscal views I have above (so that people who don't need it don't get it)
My views on taxing the rich are based on two or more of the fiscal views I have above
I am fine with a National Health Service to include all existing government medical agencies but that is done in a way where it feels like this NHS was around for over a century and in the way that Theodore Roosevelt would approve of
I support universal healthcare (via subsides from a fusion of autonomous GONGOs and pseudo private sector groups connected to the government) , unemployment insurance that is part of the social security system and pension insurance that are also funded by a combination of employee contributions, employer contributions and state (i.e government) subsidies
I support education, employment, and housing policies (like more affordable section 8 housing) along with a socio politically motivated balancing of income growth distribution
I support antitrust codes and laws against the abuse of market power
I support this type of Universal Basic Income (social dignity) but done only when it is popular with the American electorate and doesn’t conflict with the biblical message of ‘you don’t work you don’t eat’ and Abraham Lincoln’s views of working
I support free healthcare for children 2 and 4 years of age and children between 9 and 24 months to help prevent child morality
My views on Build Back Better are based on two or more of the fiscal views I have above
I support Bull Moose Progressive social insurance for people who need it while embracing the drawbacks
I am against student debt forgiveness ideas. Students should work to pay off their student debts instead of relying on the government to do so
I support more investment in education, communication and transportation
I am against off shoring jobs
I support a tax in foreign gasoline for Americans to speed up us being energy independent and to help protect the eco system (which hopefully would force us to switch to electrical cars sooner)
I want Amazon and Big Tech to be broken up. It's time we end the monopoly that Facebook, Twitter, Google, Amazon etc have over the market. There is no reason so many people should wear the same brand of clothes, or be a member of the same social media site. Movie character Arthur Jensen's speech in his movie about how corporations are the real nations of the world today seems frighteningly prophetic after decades of increasing globalism and corporate 'synergy'.
I have a right to question authority as do all Americans
social issues
LGBTQ+
I am indulgent and forbearing with gay marriage being legal because I realize that gays themselves (most gay rights activists were gays) correctly forced gay marriage to be legal instead of wrongly relying on heterosaviorism and hetereo politicians ‘evolving’ on that issue to make gay marriage be legal. I further feel this way because I realize that the majority if voters who voted to legalize gay marriage were gays themselves. So gays wanted gay marriage to be legal and they made it happen the correct way .
Even if I didn’t feel that way or I got ‘hit on the head’ causing me to be non supportive of gay marriage as long as the 14th Amendment exists I can’t get on board with or supporting the 2015 gay marriage ruling being overturned since the 14th Amendment is an excuse to keep gay marriage legal (since gays can say that due to that amendment gay marriage could have been legalized as early as the mid late 19th century)
I support proper protection under the First Amendment for religious groups and their allies to continue to advocate their beliefs regarding traditional marriage
Personally, I am begrudgingly against gay marriage
Legality wise, I am indifferent to gay marriage being legal.
However, I am open minded to and strongly emphasize with the idea that civil unions should be legal for gay couples. The reason is because the US is not a Theocracy but a Democratic Republic. Give to Caesar what is Caesar ,we live in a Democratic Republic. What people do in their bedrooms is their business and thus because of that, I am open minded to and strongly empathize with the idea that civil unions for gays should be legal. The issue of gay marriage is settled now anyway so it is a dead issue.
Ideally, the US should abolish Civil Marriage, Common Law Marriage and Religious Marriage and make Privatized Marriage the only legal form of marriage for both straight couples and gay couples. If that ever becomes the case, I would be fine with gay marriage being legal. The government really should stay out of the marriage business
I am personally apolitical to lean pragmatically Christian democratic on gay adoption.
Legality wise, I conditonally support gay adoption being legal, but in the way that I write below:
Legality wise, I only support privatized parental presumption and I am against non privatized parental presumption . However, parental presumption is the only sub issue of gay adoption that I want to be privatized and I also don't want gay adoption as a whole to be privatized either
Legality wise, I don't believe that there should be adoption/foster care anti discrimination laws in terms of gay adoption but I'd also strongly want states to encourage adoption center employees to undergo LGBTQ anti bias training every few years along with requiring foster parents to undergo training for adopting LGBTQ youth to get around not having such laws.
Legality wise, while I support second parent adoption for same sex couples, I am not crazy it and I'd much prefer instead a model like Australia had in 2008 where a non biological parent apply to a family court as 'other people significant to the care, welfare and development' of the biological or adoptive child of their partner. This stuff can cover parental and responsibility. It is simple and can also grant extensive rights to the co-parent. This would also provide a status quo if the birth parent or legal parent were to die, preventing other family members from taking immediate custody of the child.
I am against gay conversion therapy being banned, and I think that it should be legal. Whatever we think about gay conversion therapy, the government really has no right to censor it regardless of whether its real science or pseudo science.
This view of mine is especially due to my Libertarian leanings. However, gays should not be forced or even encouraged to get gay conversion therapy. They should only get that therapy if they truly want it and ask for it. Some people (not me) wonder why Gay conversion therapy is banned while Gender Dysphoria therapy is legal. Many gays support gay conversion therapy being legal and even a few think (albeit probably wrongly) that it works.
I am against criminalizing people being gay. Gays should be free to be gay without being arrested or judged for it (God judges)
I do not support Rick Perry's early 2010s anti gay law he passed or tried to pass in Texas. At the very least a more liberal amendment to it that the 2010s George HW Bush would have drawn up would have been more ideal or maybe would have even salvaged that law.
I take a Bull Moose Progressive stance on the Respect for Marriage act (that was sponsored by Jerry Nadler)
It is ok to be gay.
However, if there were 4 or more biological sexes of people on Earth instead of just 2 biological sexes, in that hypothetical world I would openly say that being gay is not ideal and that people should at least try not be gay under since there would be at least 5 opposite biological sexes of people to choose from for them to be in a romantic relationship with. Also in that hypothetical world, I’d say the following
“ I will say that I am not a gay rights activist and I am not an ally of the gay movement. I truly believe that gay people are much happier and healthier as straight people than they are as gay people. I believe that gay people can only get true freedom once they become straight, hence why I have my views. If you believe that on the record, I believe that being gay is wrong, I won't try to stop you from believing that.”
My alternate reality twin brother feels this way :”Between off the record to very deep down inside on the record, If God is real (Paschal's wager) and we are to take the bible literally and not believe that God's word changes (God says he never changes) and (God's word) says being gay is a sin, but no worse than any other sin. then the logic from that follows into this: we are not to judge or even condemn gays for being gay (condemn the sin not the sinner) but to tell them to sin no more (and realize that their sin is no worse than any other sin). Be all things to all people to win them to Christ. No matter what we should always pray for God to make gay people live the lives that he knows is best for them which is obviously being straight and we should always live Christ centered lives so gay people can see Christ in us and decide to become Christian which will lead to them being straight)”
Systematically, my views on gays and gay rights use to be exactly like Stone Cold Steve Austin's views on gays and gay rights and somewhere inside of me systematically, those views still exist
I love seeing former gay people become straight (like Anne Heche). I am an ally and supporter of the ex gay movement.
Systematically, my views on gays and gay rights use to be exactly like Stone Cold Steve Austin's views on gays and gay rights and somewhere inside of me systematically, those views still exist
I am against Indiana’s Religious Freedom law primarily because it allows people to use religion as an excuse to not follow the law
I am militantly moderate on all of the anti LGBTQ+ laws proposed/passed by states in the last decade though I would be compassionately against nearly all of them if pressed by LGBTQ+ people to do so
My views on DADT and transgender people in the military are militantly moderate and match views on that from the book Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA64#v=onepage&q&f=false
My views on gays in the boy scouts are militantly moderate and match the views on that in the book Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA1#v=onepage&q&f=false
If I had a close family member who was gay like Rob Portman, regretfully, I too would probably be pro gay rights and pro gay like Rob Portman is since I am human just like Portman. Humans are not perfect and sometimes our brain wires get mixed up where we think if we don't support everything a loved one does (like them being gay) we hate them (even though that is not the case but our brain wiring makes it hard sometimes to realize that), as is the case with Rob Portman and his gay son. I thank God that isn't the case for me. I feel blessed that it isn't.
I am against Lesbian Erasure. Whether we agree with their actions or not, they should not be encouraged to or forced to be fluid or to transition to another gender. If we are going to give homosexuals visibility in the LGBTQ movement, I believe its only fair to give Lesbians equal visibility within the LGBTQ movement too.
I am against Heterophobia, there is nothing wrong or oppressive about being heterosexual
I am proud to be Straight and I support Straight Pride
I am Liberal-Conservative Populist on Heterosexism. I am fine with LGQB (as long as they don’t force their ideology on us). Heterosexism might be an issue to some (I guess) but if ‘heterosexism’ exists it has been blown way out of proportion to say the very least or worse, may be used to destroy as an excuse to destroy the family unit. Democrats and liberals need to drop the whole ‘heterosexism’ routine as our economy and other issues are a million times more important than some new smear word creates by liberals .Depending on what’s politically expedient I may be more pro gay adoption
I personally don't believe that kids in school should be taught LGBTQ+ things (unless its taught along side anti LGBTQ+ things then I am alt indifferent to LGBTQ+ things being taught in those schools). LGBTQ+ teaching is indoctinaration for kids and is not something kids in school should be learning about. Even some liberal gays (like in NC) actually don't want kids in school to learn LGBQT+ things.
I am against this type of filth being taught in our k-8 schools (especially or at worst, never taught in grades k-5). That filth is destroying our children and needs to stopped. Parents need to get on school boards and make sure that filth is never taught in k-8 schools ever and only taught in social studies for grades 9-12
If some of my trans views trigger pro trans people or trans people, I have moderate and persuasive arguments for why I have these views on trans people that a lot of pro trans people and trans people would have difficulty debunking. I hope that makes conservatives happy having to state my quite not so pro trans views, I enjoy the attention
I do not care about Cissexism
I lean lukewarm support for Transgender marriage
Personally, I feel that transgender people should have to become transsexual (without having to get permission or go through therapy first) or meet this condition in order to have their rights and to be recognized as being their desired gender. If not, then I feel we need to get Transgender people to compromise on the Transgender issue with conservatives and TERFS where all sides are happy and if that won’t happen, then I want these changes need to be made
Legality wise, I support Transgender rights because I believe and support Gender voluntarism. I believe that a person can choose their gender. I believe that gender is performative, not essentialist, people are free agents to perform and become the gender they want to be, hence why legality wise I support Transgender rights
Our tax dollars shouldn't be spent on transgender peoples surgeries or therapies
Dead naming should not be a crime or a bannable offense. Freedom of speech means freedom of speech
I believe that either all ids should list whether someone is Cisgender, Transgender, Transsexual , Custom gender/sex (person in id personally inputs their non Male/non Female gender into said id under customized) or if they don't want any of that they can choose not to have their gender/sex listed on their id OR all ids should be like New York’s new license/photo ids.
I believe that there is a biological difference between males and females.
Biological Males have penises , biological females have breasts and vaginas. SCIENCE SAYS SO. Anyone who says otherwise is a nuts. Science says so
I have a Bull Moose Progressive stance on the whole pronoun issue
Children networks should not be teaching kids about Draq Queens. Children should not be drag queens Shame on Nickelodeon for their indoctrination of our kids with that garbage
I support laws banning children from being exposed to drag queen shows. Stop sexualizing and grooming our children. There is no reason children should have to be exposed to that, no matter how much they spin it
It is NOT transphobic for non transgender people to not want to date transgender people.
There is NOTHING wrong or transphobic about a woman saying they are proud to be a woman. I fully support Adele's 2022 Brit Awards speech. Her speech was 100 percent positive and great.
Teachers should not encourage students to be transgender. Their job is to teach not to be cheerleaders for students being transgender. I am also against Nickeledeon brainwashing our children with their transgender indoctrination. Shame on them. They are authoritarians.
Personally, I would be lying if I didn’t say that it concerns me when kids under 16 becoming Transgender and that I think at the very least kids should have to get their parents permission to become transgender
Legality wise, I give half hearted, fingers crossed, lip service to this view of mine “I am Post Conservative on whether I believe that kids should be allowed to become transgender which matches journalist Matthew Sheffield’s views on whether kids should be allowed to become transgender to a tee”
I believe transgender women should not be allowed to get cervical cancer screenings since they don't have those organs and I believe that transgender men should be allowed to get cervical and breast cancer screenings.
I loved those Man or Women segments on Maury and I hope he brings those segments back
I don't believe there are more than 2 clear genders. But I believe that in many alternate realities there are more than 2 clear genders on alternate reality Earth
Taboo
I am strongly against Polygamy, Polyamory and open marriages. I don't want anyone to engage in Polygamy, Polyamory or open marriages ever.
I want Polygamy, Polyamory and open marriages to be illegal for straight people and bisexual people forever. Monogamy is 100000x times better for straight people and bisexual people.
Very few gay people find the concept of monogamy enjoyable. Because of that, I believe that as long as gay marriage is legal, then Polygamy, Polyamory and open marriages should also be legal, but for gay married couples only.
Pedophilia is evil, sick and wrong. The USA Today and other liberal bleeding hearts are wrong to try to normalize Pedophilia. Children need to be protected from Pedophiles. We need to get tougher on Pedophiles not softer. I hope for the sake of accelerasinosm that the Democrats and Liberals continue to embrace Pedophilia and try to normalize it This is because I know that the Democrats and Liberals doing such things will backfire so badly on them their whole party and movement, there will be no more Democrat party or Liberal movement anymore and no one would ever be able to say again that the Democrats and Liberals make our world a better place.
I am against Pornography and I want Pornography to be illegal . Pornography is evil, disgusting, immoral, and wrong. It is anti woman and treats women poorly and cheapens love.
I am against fetishography and I want it to be illegal forever
I am against legalizing public sex. People should never be allowed to have sex in public ever.
Womens reproduction issues
I am generally opposed to abortion and I prefer if women and trans men have less access to abortion but I would never push for them to have less access to abortion
I am personally pro life for first trimester abortion. My personal and legal (nearly all of the time) abortion views are for personal reasons only, my mom almost lost me when she was pregnant with me. However, my personal and legal opinion on this issue differ. I also cite Unplanned in helping me cement this position.
Legality wise, I am Liberal-Conservative Populist for first trimester abortion and legality wise my views ob first trimester abortion matches Forza Italia 2013’s views on first trimester abortion (though every once in a blue moon I do temporarily oscillate to lean Pro Choice/PLIABAN-pro life in all but a name for first trimester abortion but after doing so I always oscillate back to being Liberal-Conservative Populist (Forza Italia 2013 variant) on first trimester abortion soon again soon after).
Legality wise, I am Post Conservative on early term abortion which matches journalist Matthew Sheffield’s views on early term abortion to a tee
Personally, I am pro life for second and third trimester abortion (except for rape and incest see below).
Legality wise, I am pragmatically pro life on second trimester abortion (except for rape and incest), except when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIABAN state, in which case, I am half heartingly pro choice for the second trimester abortion
Legality wise I am pro life for the third trimester abortion even when I oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIABAN state
Personally I am neutral to lean pro choice for women who are pregnant via rape or incest. I am personally apolitical on abortion to save the life of the mother.
Legality wise, I am pro choice for women who are pregnant via rape or incest (assuming that they were really raped or that their babies are really incenstious) , even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PBIABAN views
Personally, I am lean moral tolerance for (moral as moral victory) late term abortion for babies conceived via rape and incest.
Legality wise, I am Christian Democraticly pretty much pro choice for late term abortion for babies conceived via rape and incest (though when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIABAN views, I am legality wise pro choice on late term abortion for babies conceived via rape and incest)
However if a baby who is conceived via rape or incest survives an abortion, 100 percent of the time I'd want that baby to get full medical care like any baby would and if they were denied medical care, I'd want the doctor and or nurse to be fired and charged with medical negligence.
I want partial birth abortion and live birth abortion to be illegal even for babies conceived via rape and incest (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
Whenever I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views, at those times I want abortion to be as restriction free for adult women as it is restriction free for adult women in Sweden, Canada and California. I guess there are many instances when abortion really is the best way
Whenever I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views, at those times I believe one of the ways I want abortion to stay legal while heavily reducing the amount of abortions without using the government to directly do it would be to use the Compassionate Conservative approach of having the government indirectly get private companies, charities and religious organizations to give lucrative incentives for pregnant women who consider having abortions to have careful consideration and consultation with properly trained and oriented people like their families, physicians and clergy on their decision while then giving the women more incentives if they then agree to hear stories of abortion survivors, before deferring to the women and their doctors in a way that where we know they covered their bases.
Planned Parenthood's Mary Calderone once wrote that according to evidence from Scandinavians, when a woman seeks an abortion and she's given a chance of talking over her issues with properly trained and oriented people, that the woman will very often resolve a lot of her qualms and then spontaneously decide to go through with the pregnancy, especially if she has supportive help that will continue to be available to her.
This isn't because we think women can't make the best decision. If men could also become pregnant and have babies, I'd use the above proposal for them too.
Whenever I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views, at those times, I always state that another way I want abortion to stay legal while heavily reducing the amount of abortions without using the government to directly do it would be to use the Compassionate Conservative approach of having the government indirectly get private health companies, charities and religious organizations to heavily influence pregnant woman who show signs of wanting an abortion to consider planned c-sections as an alternative to having an abortion. Furthermore under this c section policy, I'd want the government to open more adoption centers throughout the country especially near abortion clinics along with having the government make it so its easy for women to give up their newborn babies for adoption and for those newborn babies to find a new home fast. Plus with this policy , I'd want women to have incentives for giving up their newborn babies for adoption. This would provide alternatives to abortion.
Whenever I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views, at those times i always feel that under both of the above two Pro Life in All But a Name Policies, I'd want the government (in a compassionate conservative way) to indirectly make it much easier for family members of women who had an abortion for any reason other than rape or incest to sue those women who had those abortions (after they had their abortion) in civil court (so the families of the women who had an abortion could have financial compensation for those women having their abortion). I'd also want the government to (in a compassionate conservative way) to indirectly and legally make it easier for those family members to win their civil suits against those women who had abortions.
As mentioned above, if men could also become pregnant and have babies, I'd use the above proposal for them too.
I support parental consent laws (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views) requiring minors under 17 to get permission for an abortion from their parents (except in cases of rape, incest , to save the life of the minor or some extremely rare cases)
I support parental notification for a minor getting an abortion (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I support the Hyde Amendment (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I am militantly moderate on Texas's new abortion laws but I can’t deny the positive emotions I have about said laws. However I sympathize with people who are against those laws (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views). The most important thing we need in this is to continue to support women’s health. That is something we can all agree on
I am against Justin Trudeau going after pro life charities and pro life groups. Trudeau is a fascist dictator for doing that and proves he is a hypocrite on abortion since he doesn't trust women to make their own decision (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I believe that it should be illegal for employers to require their workers to be pro choice (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I believe it should be illegal for pregnant women who are pregnant with a baby who has down syndrome to abort their babies because those babies have Down Syndrome. (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
Ronald Reagan once said "the only people who are pro choice are people who are alive"
I take a Bull Moose Progressive stance on Roe v Wade being overturned
I never donate to any pro choice company and I never have and I never will encourage women to have abortions, if they ask me if they should keep the baby I always tell them to keep the baby. I never campaign for or vote for any pro choice political candidate unless in most situations. (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I encourage everyone to aggressively pray for women to keep their children, even if they conceived that child through rape or incest (if that is best for God and the woman). (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I am Militantly Moderate on surrogate motherhood with the same view on that issue as the book Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA1#v=onepage&q&f=false
I want children aged 11–12 to get proper sex education before they graduate elementary school and then continue sex education into their teens so that children and teens know how not to get pregnant, if they use common sense, and have more access anticonceptives which should be made available to them with some common sense restrictions. I'd want children and teens to be taught sex education methods approve of by Christian groups and family groups only. (even when I am pragmatically pro life)
In addition, along with sex education, I always want teach kids and teens to learn abstinence. I am pro abstinence. (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I always feel that health care providers should not be required to offer free birth control. (even when I temporarily oscillate to my lean pro choice/PLIAN-Pro Life in all but a name views)
I always am indifferent to birth control being legal
I am apolitical on Stem Cell research
I am against population control. Population Control is an assault on reproductive rights and its a human rights violation (right to procreate, right to life) . Human life is sacred. Overpopulation (the other excuse for it) is a myth. Climate change is real but population control doesn't stop it and is extremely counterproductive.
feminism
I am a forth wave feminist in a way that Rush Limbaugh could be seen as being feminist if people took his words out of context or pieced together that makes Limbaugh sound like a forth wave feminist
The US can no longer be understood without its feminism. We should place a special emphasis on constructing feminist discourse and action to play a big role in our political parties. We need to link with different leftist feminist movements
I support autonomous feminist strikes to advance equality between women and men. I support overthrowing the male/female order of things in the US and an alternative future with a greater presence of a feminist agenda and inevitably with a greater presence of women in all areas of our society. (once we overthrow the male/female order of things)
I support fourth wave feminist things to ensure this including ending sexist/sexual violence, fixing the care system by committing to a feminist economy.
I support the diversity of families, motherhood, the right to conciliation also from feminism or the need to point out how all of the essential care and social reproduction work fell invisibly on the shoulders of women. Feminism defending BIPOC and Transgender people is unavoidable and we need feminism to take an unequivocal path towards the power dispute
Feminism should be the main agenda in politics due to the majorities our political parties represent. We have to view our political future with purple glasses on
We need to promote the historical claim of all women of their full rights and at the same time, undertake the necessary construction of the society of the future. This is essential to incorporate men, since it also guarantees rights to them, with the belief that feminism and democracy, feminism and freedom, feminism and justice are always synonymous with each other. We need to end the disputes by the right of feminist democracy
We need to deepen the mainstreaming of feminism in the structure if our organizations, especially our political organizations. We need diplomatic and militantly moderate dialogue and practices to confront (in a Christian way) on the streets and in the institutions those who have made the rights of women, migrant ,BIPOC people and LGTBQ people in the community their enemy. We must also do this by paying special attention to the consequences that this above context has on the people within our political organizations who, as part of these above groups, fight on the front lines of politics
We need to recognize the task of feminism of our political organizations in constructing state leadership that defines challenges of the future
We need to put life at the center as to fight against all forms of sexist violence that women suffer. This is to articulate a response to the reactionary violence that is unleashed in the face of the struggle for justice, and it’s to defend the needed redistribution of wealth and to ensure along the way, that no one is left behind or denied their rights. Putting life at the center tells us about a feminism for the social majorities
We should support a feminism that has memory located from bodies , from the class, from desire, from borders etc We should support feminism that aspires to build itself up from margins but which also fundamentally that aspires to build the future of our country (the US) with clear constituent and constitutional vocation
But there are a lot of feminist things (especially forth and fifth wave things) that I am against (like that Lego complaint years ago by feminists, or the view by feminists that all men are rapists, or feminists saying that that video game designer from Puerto Rico was misogynist or should be fired for his gamer gate comments, or feminist complaints that Jurassic World was a sexist movie, or downplaying Valerie Solanas's extremism, or complaints about how women are portrayed in most video games, or feminist complaints about urinals, those type of feminist views like that and some other views I loathe and strongly disagree with).
Off the record, Feminism is my main focus in politics
Women should always get paid equally to men. I support income equality
I support the VAWRA Act of 2012. to include actual or perceived sex/gender and to include an an amendment to include stronger punishments for female on male violence
I support woman's suffrage
I am against some aspects of the Equal Rights Amendment. I don't believe there should be an equal amount of men and women players in the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, . I don't believe that Women's Shelters should be shut down or be shelters for all genders or similar things in the ERA.
I am against Prostitution being legal or decriminalized but the buyer should go to prison not the sex worker.
We should be allies of the feminist movement because our mothers are (or were if they died) women and they gave birth to us and many of our spouses are women.
I do not agree with things in the Wikipedia article about Gender Bias on Wikipedia. There is no one stopping women from becoming Wikipedia editors and writing articles about women or other subjects. It is just as easy for women to jump in and become regular Wikipedia editors as it is for men to do so. If any editor editor, male or female can't do that, it means they shouldn't edit Wikipedia, not because of their gender but because they are too weak.
If women can't pass the military training tests to be on the front lines they shouldn't be on the front lines. Lowering the standards for our military is wrong. War is life and death and PC policies have no place in war.
That Slate reporter years ago was correct to share tips about Wikipedia controversies with another reporter and by mentioning the relationship status of that video game designer Anita S.
Men's issues
The documentary Red Pill makes more than some good points and at worst I am pretty sympathetic towards it.
I support Josh Hawley's Men and the Future of America Speech. I do feel however his speech was cult like and could have been done in a way that wouldn't make me feel like that.
I don't find Chris Pratt's Instagram post sexist in any way shape or form. People who find it sexist need mental health.
I believe there is nothing wrong with men showing chivalry to women and I know that chivalry is not sexist
In general, there is nothing wrong with Masculinity. Toxic Masculinity doesn't exist and is just a fake term created by far leftists. If Toxic Masculinity does exist, I am Liberal-Conservative Populist
Male Chauvinism is wrong because men should respect toward women and Male Chauvinism is against that principal. Right Wingers are supposed to be chivalrous toward women and Male Chauvinism goes against the Right Wing value of chivalry
I have a somewhere between an Anti Villain and Anti Hero (but closer to Anti Hero) admiration for NO MA'AM from Married with Children . Though I prefer Al's friend Steve's views on those things
I oscillate between negative negative second political position and neutral not believe on whether I believe that male privilege is real. I have never and I will never apologize for being male. There is nothing wrong with being male.
Relational issues
I believe we should heavily encourage and maybe even give lucrative incentives to more Christians to adopt children
I believe that adopting children should be easier for people
Domestic violence is evil and wrong. Conservative and Christian men are supposed to love and protect their wives not hurt them. Conservative and Christian men are supposed to be gentlemen to their wives not abusers. Domestic abusers need to be stopped
There is nothing wrong with Sandy from Grease changing herself into a biker chic to please Danny. There is nothing wrong with girls changing something about themselves in order to please a guy just like there is nothing wrong with guys changing something about themselves to please a girl.
I support the Promise Keepers. Some of my friends from old church were members of Promise Keepers.
I believe that a husband has a responsibility to lead his household in a loving and gentle way, giving his life to his wife (like how Christ gave his life to the Church by dying) so she (the wife) can willingly submit to her husband's leadership.
I support stimulation of birth rate and support for young families to endure stability for the decision of motherhood. I want preferential mortgage conditions for home purchasing , public financing of the costs of small children, providing sufficient childcare facilities etc
Similar to the Apostle Paul, I believe that for singles it is good for them to remain single unless they cannot self control in which case they should get into a romantic relationship (its better to get into a romantic relationship than to burn with lust) I believe this because single people have more time and freedom to help make our world more progressive, and due to me believing that romantic relationships are more a forced social construct, even more so than marriages and I hate forced social constructs.
In light of that, I would strongly empathize with the idea of the government creating a romantic relationship tax which somewhat taxes Americans (of all sexual orientations) who are in a romantic relationship. However, once they get married or they became single again, that tax would be eliminated unless they get into another romantic relationship again. Unlike Paul, I believe that marriages give people a lot more freedom today to make the world a better place than it was during Paul's time, almost as much freedom as singles in Paul's day had for themselves. If this tax had the negative side effect of causing less births (which I don't want since I am against Population control), then I would be against this tax unless I found some way to have this tax be legal while at the same time not causing less births.
Immigration /Illegal Immigration
I am militantly moderate on migration/illegal immigration. My views on migration and illegal immigration match views on those issues from the book Mediation of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA164#v=onepage&q&f=false and some abstract views on those issues of other militant moderates (like Ross Perot)
We need to prioritize the concept of citizenship by putting the fact of residence first while also separating access to political rights from the degree of national identification.
Giving primacy to citizenship over nationality implies giving priority to our political society, and this entails a less organic conception of that community, and more open. The political participation and representation of immigrants are important for the social transformation of our country, working for the right to active and passive voting. A country that strengthens its democracy without anyone being left out is an ideal country. Force by marginalized groups is a good way to do that. Defensive Democracy with an eye on national memory can also accomplish this
Inequality does not affect us all equally , discrimination has its roots in Keynesian/Crony Capitalist, Neoliberal , patriarchal domination and a perspective on how to fight against this domination eithin our political parties in a natural, tasteful way weakens us as a whole and our democracy
We have to regularize migrants and develop measures that we have been defending in recent years; reestablishing legal and safe pathways; relaxing some of the criteria for settlement, and the criteria for residence and work permits; guaranteeing access to the procedure for asylum seekers along with processing files in a timely manner that is without delay; guaranteeing the rights of migrant children while always respecting the best interests of the minor, among other issues.
We also must commit to developing public migration policies which move towards a different horizon of migration governance where the rights of all people are respected. It is necessary to continue working to expand rights within the current regulatory migration framework
I am ok with promoting a real and effective Common Asylum System which puts an end to the lack of homogeneity in the international protection of refugees in various countries. The US must be the border to Canada, Central and South America and the Europe. This must be done in a fair and humanitarian way in terms of migration, that respects the migration rights and the right to life. with an eye for voluntary and self returns
I am not against Amnesty for up to 10,000 or up to a million or so if I felt that the situation warranted and the progressives were able to sell me on it, but I wouldn't be crazy about that either.
I'm against Sanctuary cities.
I criticize the way immigration has been handled by the liberals
I am open minded to the idea of having the United States ,Mexico and Central America form a supranational nation (similar to the European Union) which would by default make the vast majority of illegals who are currently living in the US 'legal' and treat migration between the US and those countries as migration between EU countries is treated. I'd also want every few years for there to be a mandatory Brexit type vote for the US, Mexico and those Central American countries in said supernational union to decide if they want to stay or pull out of this suprnational union, similar to Britain's Brexit vote years back.
I between condone (without any empathy) and somewhat empathize with the US creating a deportation system for xenophobic Americans that fuses methods in this article: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/jul/06/home-office-secret-plan-charities-deport-rough-sleepers (but for xenophobic Americans only);with a plan that gently expulses xenophobic Americans , using ICE (who now would be called Xenobobic Control Enforcement), the Dep of Defense and the army peace core to jointly establish a secret unit charged with "encouraging" for the departure of xenophobic Americans for Canada, Europe, Australia, South America, Argentina etc.
They would give assistance to these xenophobic Americans who 'wished' to emigrate from here with an organization which would deal with it. This way we non xenophobes won’t have to be upset about mass migration and illegal immigration since the xenophobes we exile won’t be living in the US anymore to force us to be upset about those things
I feel the two different systems in the above two paragraphs would be so over the top, it would force both sides to come together to find a practical and humane REAL solution to the illegal immigration and mass migration issues (as opposed to politicans on both sides never getting such things done on this issue since politicians are all talk and no action on hot button issues) sort of like in a 12 Angry men (Henry Ford version) sort of way
The US must work in Central America to address the root causes of migration from Central America, to recognize that we don't need to sacrifice our humanity in the name of security. We also must work with Mexico to make sure that it takes its own border security seriously. Moreover, working with our neighbors to improve security across the region is an imporant component of any policy to promote prosperity and fairness in the hemisphere. A safe and secure region will lead to a safer, more secure United States.
I also believe that the US also must engage with countries like Mexico and in Central America to address the causes that cause them to migrate to the US illegally (ie to curb illegal immigration to the US from those countries)
I don't believe that churches should snitch on illegal immigrants because that would be against God
Remember Jesus quote in the bible about David stealing the bread? I feel that is needed to provide nuance to the illegal immigration debate.
I am pro migration, but if we ever get to a point where there are 20 million or more (give or take 5 million or 10 million) migrants moving into the US a year, at that point I would support closing the border or severely and extremely restricting migration for years. Everything has a limit, including migration.
I am against Joe Biden flying in illegal aliens into our country. That is wrong on so many levels
Illegal immigrants and refugees in the US don't commit more or less crimes/violent crimes than legal US citizens
We need to actively recruit non center left/non left center migrants moving into the US to become militantly moderate or Post Conservative and embrace left wing republicanism (which would mean less migrants would become Democrats) in exchange for us helping those migrants connect and integrate themselves with our community and feel accepted.
This is what used to happen in New Mexico for migrants (but it was vote Democrat not Republican then and there). A lot of migrants come from countries that aren't as anti Democrat as the US
The Democrats have been using migrants to usurp control from us non Democrats over the decades so we need to counter that with this method. Democrats are smart for doing that and we are behind the eight ball on that. See here for more https://cis.org/Report/Immigration-and-Usurpation
Migrants to the US should learn English
Ronald Reagan said it best when he said you can move to Japan but not become Japanese, you can move to France but not become a Frenchman/Frenchwoman but you can move to America and become an American. Optimism is better than Determism. I believe that the US is a melting pot
I believe the number of refugees to be accepted needs to be determined through negotiations
Undocumented migrants shouldn't have more rights than legal citizens
I am against illegal immigrants getting free health care
I am against NAFTA
I support Brexit
I am a Eurosceptic (in some ways like Podemos) but I have a Pro European streak in me
I support Australia like Jus soli
Ethnicity/race
Object oriented Ontoclogy is NONSENSE and GARBAGE. Human Privelege is NONSENSE. Humans ARE SUPERIOR to non human objects and anyone who says otherwise is a moron.
If I was born in the 2020s or later and I was still white, I would be as woke and liberal on race-ethnicity issues as most Americans born in the 2020s and later are or will be woke and liberal on race-ethnicity issues (or as woke and liberal on race-ethnicity issues as woke liberals are today on those issues)
I am Post Conservative on Racial Equity which matches journalist Matthew Sheffield’s views on Racial Equity to a tee
This book makes a case that some racial and ethnic voluntarist acts might highlight the artificial and constructed nature of race and ethnicity (i.e challenging assumptions about the stability and categorical organization of race and ethnicity itself). and that such racial ethnic voluntarism may celebrate, not simply appropriate, “black culture”; and, may embody a self-conscious critique of the negatives of white culture
My views on Affirmative Action and diversity are militantly moderate and also match Mediations of a Moderate’s views on Affirmative Action https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA16#v=onepage&q&f=false
I do not have a political position on quota based hiring
I am Liberal-Conservative Populist on Meritocracy
I support tailored and guided economic policies like a Ross Perot amended “Fight for the souls of the cities” campaign policy that would put black and hispanic working class at its core in order to help hispanics and blacks not need welfare and to be fiscally liberated. (the anti privitization and anti policing parts would be changed to something else with this amendment)
I am against Asian students being discriminated against in admissions by colleges such as Yale. Colleges should stop discriminating against Asian students. I support Donald Trump's lawsuit against Yale.
Equality of Opporutinity could be seen as violating liberty and property rights in that it contravenes the true meaning of the Declaration of Independance and subverts the principles of a free society.
Equality of Opportunity can be seen as violating the boss's or owner's rights to hire the most effiicent workers and not be stymied by having to hire less efficent workers for EoO reasons. It is also a mirage, faslely assumes that merit based systems are competitions when they are not, and falsely assumes everyone has equal abilities.
I am against wokeness in a agree to disagree sort of way.
White privilege is not real. It would take woke Liberals kidnapping me and then reprogramming me to believe that white priveledge is real for me to believe that white privelege is real. I won't fight them if they try to do that because them having to go through all that trouble of kidnapping and reprogramming me would waste hours of their lives they could never get back.
I have never and I will never apologize for being white. There is nothing wrong with being white or any race or ethnicity.
There are some racist people who spew drivel like 'White Lives Don't Matter' and who call on others to hate white people, my response to those racists is WHITE Lives Matter too, ALL lives matter equally and IT IS NOT OK TO HATE WHITE PEOPLE, IT IS OK TO BE WHITE, BLACK, HISPANIC, ASIAN, INGENIOUS ETC
Every person on Earth is our absolute first class partner on our planet without biases and prejudices. Race and sex have nothing to do with who or what we are. We’re all created equal.
I am cool with the NAACP. It is good that they have helped advance the rights of POC over the years and the methods they have used (in general). One of my favorite NAACP leaders was Web Dubois and Benjamin Hooks
I echo what the person who sent the letter in this article wrote: https://medium.com/@soumynona_/anonymous-letter-from-uc-berkeley-professor-in-response-to-black-lives-matter-protests-24a66a6f1ca7
My views on reparations are militantly moderate and are the same as the views on that issue in the book Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA1#v=onepage&q&f=false
I am not a fan of BLM. However, I between in between relent and yield AND in between wink at and sanction former BLM members who aren’t woke anymore and their fight for equality and advocacy
I am forced to condemn some of BLM’s actions. I would condemn similar actions by a WLM group if they existed and acted the same way as BLM in those situations
Some ANTIFA allies of BLM and a few extreme members of BLM who overlap with them say and do anti white ignorant-bigoted/prejudice-reverse racist things. No biggie, but since I am white, my natural response is to condemn those actions and BLM for enabling such actions and I do condemn those actions
But, what I see as “anti white ignorance-bigotry/prejudice-reverse racism and extremism” , someone else sees as patriotic, heroic, liberating and revolutionary. To each their own.
While I am not racist (I am a non racist), I am not an antiracist. I advocate for a better world for all people, especially marginalized ones, who want and need it.
This article's views on BLM give some unique perspectives on BLM and gives me something to think about
I believe All Lives Matter equally and all people on Earth are equal.
No race or ethnicity is better or worse than any other race or ethnicity. All races and ethnicities are equal to each other. I echo everything MLK Jr said on race ethnicity . I’ll take MLK Jr and his views on race ethnicity any day of the week over BLM snd their views on race ethnicity. One such quote by MLK Jr which is critical of Identity politics "God is interested in the freedom of the whole human race, the creation of a society where every man will respect the dignity and worth of personality", more here
Most of the BLM protests and riots during the protests from the summer of 2020 got out of hand and some were fiery. BLM clearly did most of the damage and destruction during those protests and riots at said protests for at least the first fewish weeks of June 2020.
Yes i acknowledge the conservative counter protestors escalated things, but BLM should have peacefully protested instead of resorting to rioting and pillaging or if BLM did peacefully protest (to play devil's advocate for people who say BLM were peacefully protesting), BLM should have peacefully protested in a way where even the right wing media would say those were peaceful protests.
Moreover (still playing devil's advocate) even if BLM were the good guys in those protests and riots at the protests, they started a series of protests where there was a lot of property damage, destruction (I won't complain about the Confederate statues being destroyed by BLM since while I feel the The CW ended almost a century and a half ago and I live in the present and deal with things that have to do with the present, it's better for those statues to be removed by BLM destroying them than through SJKW, boycott or cancel culture methods), violence, and terror.
I will say at least BLM aren't afraid to protest and fight against perceived wrongs, something that keyboard warrior armchair Quarterback conservatives should emulate in order to push for conservative changes. My views on the BLM protests are also echoed by Michael Brown (writer from Townhall.com) and Staci Dash
BLM members should fight against Cultural Marxism, one word Marxism and Globalism instead of protesting against white people
Secoriea Turner was an innocent victim of a murderer and that murderer who killed her should go to prison for at 20 years. Turner is in heaven now
I am not saying this to be mean, I am saying this with tough love to wokesters so they can grow to be better racial justice advocates
I don't believe that the CRT should be taught in schools and I won't discourage parents and others from trying to prevent the CRT from being taught in schools (as long as it is in peaceful ways)
I would also encourage all American parents who don't want the CRT to be taught in schools to try to get elected to school boards around the US to prevent the CRT from being taught in schools.
The CRT gives off a prejudice/propagandized-fringe theory vibe (at worst) vibe and a reactionary/very controversial vibe (at best)
It is divisive, misleading, wrong (of course wrong is a subjective word) and or unhelpfulish etc. If so many people get worked up about it and criticize it (from both the left and right) that should be a clue about what type of thing it is.
If the CRT would admit that it is really an Alternate History Fictional work that is being used to make a point (ie not the point the CRT is trying to make but that while the CRT is fiction and alternate history ,some discussion about race should take place if for no other reason due to the strong reactions toward the CRT) and is not being used to make our country woke, I will then consider morally (as in moral victory) stepping aside and no longer vocally criticize the CRT being used and taught.
The CRT is less bad than Critical Animal Studies and Whiteness Studies. If I was forced to choose between CRT and CAS being taught in schools and colleges, I'd choose the CRT. If I had to choose between the CRT and Whiteness Studies being taught in schools and colleges, I'd choose the CRT. It's the lesser of 3 'evils'.
Horton Hears a Who is way better than the CRT. Horton Hears a Who is a great story which teaches universal, multinational, multi-ethnic values and Equality. Horton Hears a Who should be taught in K-12 schools to teach students equality and universal, multinational and multi ethnic values.
Parents who 'harass', argue or go after teachers at school board meetings are NOT domestic terrorists or terrorists
I am against the 1619 Project being taught in schools. Many mainstream historians have criticized the 1619 Project . The 1619 Project is a lie created by the NYT who should stick to their day jobs (reporting the news). I would try to get the 1619 banned from schools if I was able to do so.
I support Standarized Testing in schools and the SAT
I am against Equitable Math being taught in schools. Math is not racist, there is nothing racist about Math or the way that is taught. Equitable Math is race norming disguised as being something innovative. I hope Equitable Math gets banned in schools in the future.
I support Advance Math being taught in schools from 1st to 12th grade. I also support advanced students being skipped ahead a grade.
Students should not be required to take ethnic studies classes in high school. It's their RIGHT to not take that course and the government has NO RIGHT to require students to take such courses.
Oral Roberts should not be penalized in any way shape or form for the views of their founder. Anyone who says otherwise is a racist pig.
I am a fan of Assata Shakur and a few to some of her 1970s views only because I feel our country would be better now if she had her way politically in the 1970s (ie more woke then to be less woke now) This is one of my outside the box views. I am from the county that she was accused of killing a cop in (Middlesex County), so maybe it is just that I sympathize with her due to her ordeal and because ignorant residents of my county (Middlesex County) reacted harshly to her back then when she was accused of murder.
I can somewhat sympathize with this view : It would be great if blacks suddenly outnumber whites in the US etc and somehow get the power and position in the US from here on out that whites traditionally had while at the same time having whites be demoted and have the historical positions etc that blacks have had in the US in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s 1990s (ie blacks and whites switch places). I don't agree with that view or even empathize with it however. It's just I am a fan of Trading Places type of movies /tv and can somewhat sympathize with the above view. If blacks were ever in position to really switch places with whites as noted above (even using Black Anarchist methods), I'd pretty much empathize with non blacks helping blacks pull that off but since we are nowhere near that point, I will continue to only somewhat sympathize with this view. However my motive would be more wanting to shake things up as opposed to being a SJW.
I support Interracial marriage
If non human intelligent life extraterrestrial species from other solar systems, galaxies or universes came to Earth, I would be against humans marrying most of those non human intelligent life extraterrestrial species from those other solar systems, galaxies and universes
I am against anti white hate speech and anti white jokes (even if some of them make me chuckle). We need to counter the anti white haterade that white people are getting on social media and by public figures like Sarah Jeong.
We cannot allow anti white hate speech and anti white jokes to be normalized. To BIPOC who employ these methods, when they go low we go high. You know better
White people don't make up the majority of mass shooters and statistics back this up
Blaming whites for everything is anti white hate and needs to stop. Anti white conspiracy theorists are deluded
I don't believe that the National Anthem should be played at sporting events
The Black National Anthem is disive and wrong. There is only ONE National Anthem, for ALL Americans regardless of race or ethnicity. Having a national anthem for blacks or any race goes against everything our country stands for . We are ONE America not White America, not Black America, not Hispanic America, Not Asian America.
Meena Harris said ignorant hateful comments. White Males are NOT the biggest 'terroristic' threat to this country. Those comments she made are WRONG and DIVISIVE. She is an intelligent, thoughtful person and I am proud of her but she goes too far sometimes. She can take a cue from Kamala Harris who embodies her qualities without those type of comments.
Colin Kaepernick's hate filled Tweet on July 4 2020 was senseless, divisive and wrong. The US is not a White Supremist country and its not a white supremist act to celebrate Independance Day. Kaepernick needs to called out boneheaded tweets like the one he made on July 4 2020 as those type of tweets fan flames of hate and division in our country. He disrespected us and our country on July 4 2020 and he needs to be called out for it
While I believe all races-ethnicities from Earth are equal and I am not racist against any race or ethnicity from Earth, I believe that the human species (made up of all races-ethnicities) should be on a higher socially constructed species heirachy than a lot of non human intelligent life extra terrestrial species found on other planets in other solar systems, galaxies and universes in ways that benefits the human species. I want humans from Earth to marginalize and or oppress a lot of non human intelligent life extra terrestrial species who live in other solar systems, galaxies and universes. I am proudly Institutionally-Systematically Anthropecentric against a lot of non human intelligent life extra species who lives in other solar systems, galaxies and universes.
I am between being Left Wing racist and Symbolic racist against some intelligent life extra terrestrial races in other solar systems, galaxies and universes who are of a race that is not found on Earth (even if they are human)
I am fifth political position on interracial marriage between intelligent life extraterrestrials on very specific hypothetical planets more than a googolplex meters from Earth
Children/Disabled
school /work
The government should not fund universal pre school.
I am not crazy about gender studies being taught in schools that don’t have majority female teachers. In schools which do have that, I more than support gender studies being taught and would be open to more relevant and gradual teaching methods in teaching such subjects to kids
I support and encourage charter schools and homeschooling
I support school choice for students (since I wanted it when I moved to my new town 1997 but couldn't get a voucher).
My views on Pledge of Allegiance issues is militantly moderate and match views on that from Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA64#v=onepage&q&f=false
I believe that school truancy should be decriminalized
I believe homework should always be required for students in schools. I want homework to continue to be a part of schooling forever.
I believe that disrespectful students should be suspended. Suspending disrespectful students is the best thing for them and is a time honored method to correctify their behavior.
I believe that the Tuttle Twin books should be taught in schools and in school libraries throughout the US and Canada
I believe students who disrespect their teachers should be suspended.
I believe we should defund Academia. This article puts it better than I can
My views on military recruitment on campus is militantly moderate and matches views on that from the book Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA64#v=onepage&q&f=false
I only support this type of home enterprise child labor in the link below (as long as its voluntary) and only if the children get paid more than adults https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Child_Labor_in_United_States_1912a.jpg
Laws
I support Judeo Christian school students and teachers having prayer meetings after school in the parking lot (like what my former high school does)
I believe the national driving age in the US should be lowered to 15
Child Values
I believe kids should be respectful to their parents, teachers and adults. People should ways be polite and not lie unless in very rare cases (ie the very rare cases that God would be fine with person lying)
I believe children who misbehave should be lightly spanked and punished (time outs).
I am against the 'Everybody gets a trophy culture' It make it hard for kids who become adults to deal with adversity
I believe that all kids should read the Tuttle Twins books since those books teach great lessons for kids.
Disablity rights
I support Terri's Law
IP
When I see someone who is different than me, I ignore their differences because focusing on their differences is boring and predictable and I am a unique and unconventional person who doesn't like to do boring or predictable things. I will never focus on someones ethnicity-race, disability-mental disorder, sex-gender, sexual orientation, etc when seeing them since I am unique and unconventional and focusing on someones differences goes against my values of being unique and unconventional
I support paternalism to help give equality to all marginalized persons
I support , in a Christian way, treating each person regardless of identity strictly on their merits as a person, giving them no more and no less than they show himself worthy to have
We cannot fight against the extreme right with its forms or methods. We must organize to deepens the, dialogue and practices to curb them
We cannot definitively ignore that one of the elements of hate speeches is that which undermines the authority and legitimacy of women which it does by exercising political hostility toward them, which can hinder their access to the exercise of their political rights. We need tools to stop these anti woman reactions from the right in a way that upholds the values of the feminist movement
It is good to have an inclusive society in which each person is part of the entire fabric of our society and has access to social, political, labor and gender rights in order to create an environment where cultural and social diversity is key to social development as opposed to using saviorism , and cold bureaucracy to do so. The fight against discrimination and prejudice must move toward a more inclusive, dynamic and committed form of participation with the plural and complex realities in our current era
Immigrants and BIPOC people, active subjects with rights, not victims and through direct democracy and having a foot in the street so to speak, the state must work to guarantee that. It is important that they get the recognition of their agency, capacity and their political subjectivity.
It is important that diversity in political participation, decision making, public spaces and via representation, doesn’t occur exclusively in just debates and in the decision making spaces concerning only racial-ethnic oppression and the immigrant condition, but rather, they must be present in all debates on the political and social future of this country.
So public policies should be tilted toward constitutional guarantees of equalization of rights among all people and in the public square we must make sure our country fulfills this role and establishes mechanisms that allow the enforceability of rights.We must use greater force to get our politicians to commit to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness principals, and anti income/class inequality perspectives
Further we should promote and structure differential anti discrimination (4pt) fused with ‘white saviorism’ and anti workplace discrimination policies along with true equality policies that can quiet anti racial discrimination groups . Basically a transversal strongly non racist, egalitarian perspective based on visibility, representativeness, recognition etc as a capital condition for the construction of a political project that leaves no one out.
We tend to defend culture as that which breaks the closure of the description of reality imposed from power/powers. For this rupture to happen, access to culture must be guaranteed for people in its greatest possible diversity, making it easier for all artistic discourses to find their audience. Let us avoid certain maxims: no, culture per se does not make us free. What gives us critical thinking tools, what allows emancipation processes, is the possibility of access to the different cultural manifestations and discourses. If we only stick to a deliberately reduced canon, culture will be serving to prop up a certain and privileged perspective, leaving dissenting views and voices silenced (or potentially silenced). The task we have as a political organization is to open the canon and at the same time favor the prescription of those compositions (in all areas) that for reasons of gender, class, ethnicity, language, sexual orientation or identity, can be left out being very valuable productions and works for the whole of our collective imagination.
In this task it is also necessary to emphasize that without citizenship there is no culture. This principle has been repeatedly ignored in the cultural policies that have been developed on the right and on the left since the transition to the present day. Large empty containers of content and interaction with society, and a process of unbridled privatization of the most popular and interesting initiatives are the mud that explains this sludge. We know that it is in neighborhood spaces, neighborhoods and towns, where grassroots cultural projects are proposed that find a greater citizen response and where the most interesting and innovative meetings and artistic manifestations take place. And we want and need these models for our great and consecrated structures. A new culture for the great museums of the State, that not only keep history in a showcase, but also allow citizens to build the museum every day, that permeates its time and the people of that time.
I support a New (Stalinism) Jacobinism egalitarian notion of progressivism as society rises to more and more equality (barbarism to civilization)
It is ok to use of the state to achieve social justice , to get power , people at the top (gov) need to weild it to them from their pedestal of power
Its fun to see an idealistic utopian vision of an America that is a bastion of democracy and social justice at home, and a powerful force in the realm of global affairs.
I am against Identity politics
I am against Intersectionality
I support Civic Nationalism
I acknowledge no person except God as my superior, except for their own worth, or as my inferior, except for their own demerit. :-J
I am a First World-Free World Identitarian
I support right wing version of Post Nationalism (including right wing English Canada Post Nationalism)
I am against Multiculturalism
I support the importance of the battle for cultural hegemony in times of crisis where an electoral project can articulate and draw together various democratic demands and create a political subject that can carry this program through. This can be done via populism
I view center right (and maybe even Right Wing) Liberal Nationalism as somewhat tolerable and maybe even salvageable.
I am fine with using eco nationalism to save the US’s natural beauty
I am a New Nationalist
I view Nationalism as a probable necessary 'evil' (at worst) and maybe something I will become more than open minded to at some point in the future (at best). In France, Nationalism was originally a left wing and Republican ideology.
Territorial Nationalism that has legal equality is a good concept. I am not a Territorial Nationalist, but I am an indirect supporter of aloof allies of Territorial Nationalists
Democrats and Liberals are obsessed with White Nationalism. Democrats and Liberals label so many
I much prefer Western Chauvinism over Globalism, Globalization, Cultural Marxism and Multiculturism (ie I view Western Chauvinism as the lesser of 5 evils). Western Chauvinism is not racist, bigoted or xenophobic. It's just not for me. However, I also have an extreme sense of patriotism and I refuse to apologize for creating the modern world
I support patriotism
Ultra Nationalism is at worst below average. There are good things about it but mostly it is impractical. Isolationism, Radical Localism, Western Chauvinism, Civic Nationalism and even Nationalism are much more preferable to Ultra Nationalism and it's not even close
It is wrong for people to complain about a woman being replaced with a man or a BIPOC being replaced by a white person (as long as the reason they were replaced was not sexist or racist in any way shape or form)
I hope the Republican party continues to attract more and more BIPOC+ people because that is something our party needs to push it over the top
SJW/Cancel culture/PC
I am a fan of the IDW and endorse most of their views
SJW/Cancel culture
I am not down with SJWism at all
Good quote "While I’m in full belief that even SJWs have the capacity for rational and critical thought, the fact that they choose not to employ it, even in the face of brutal facts, earns them the label of NPC. If your entire identity revolves around the superficial, and your entire belief system revolves around instructions from someone else, then you’re about as good as a computer program. If you won’t engage in civil debate, and instead scream tired phrases at people when you run out of things to say, then there’s no person there, just a shell that somebody else is speaking through"
I am against Cancel Culture
PC
I am against Censorship
I am against colleges (such as the ones in this linke https://www.biznews.com/undictated/2021/06/14/woke-backlash) restricting freedom of speech and being far left extremist trolls
I am strongly generally against political correctness but i am not as harsh on them as Dave Rubin and some IDW people. PC warriors aren't wrong all of the time and at least a third of the time they are at least somewhat right or not that far off from being somewhat right
There is NOTHING offensive about the 1964 Rudolph Red Nosed Reindeer movie
There is nothing offensive about A Cat in the Hat Comes Back
There is NOTHING offensive about the puking scene in Ace Ventura. It was more mocking Ace for being ignorant than mocking trans people
There is nothing offensive about the movie Airplane (ie there was nothing offensive about that jive scene by Barbara Billingsley). People who are offended by the jive scene in particular are ignorant of the whole background and context of it
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE INACCURATE WAYS THAT ANIMALS ARE PROTRAYED IN ENTERTAINMENT , ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS AN IDIOT
The song Baby It's Cold Outside is not a date rape song and it should be left alone and be as mainstream as it was in the mid 2010s and prior since it was first released. It should not have been a victim of PC snowflakes (pun intended) who are jealous that Dean Martin will always be more famous and cooler than they could ever be.
There is nothing offensive about Beverly Hills Cop III but to each their own
There is NOTHING offensive about the term 'black ice'
THERE IS NOTHING OFFENSIVE ABOUT BUGS BUNNY EATING CARROTS
There is NOTHING offensive about Christmas Story (1983 movie)
There is NOTHING offensive about the name Clown Face Nebula. Not one person would possibly be offended by that name (who the fuck would be offended by that term? clowns? the nebula itself? GTFO with that junk)
There is NOTHING offensive about using these terms: blind alley, blind side, blindspot, grandfathered in, lame, long time no see, psyched. There is nothing wrong with the word crazy being used in pop culture to name things to name things (like Cameron Crazies, the rapper Krazy, the song Crazy in Love by Beyonce, Bugs Bunny's Crazy Castle etc). There is nothing wrong with using the word lunatic being used in pop culture to name things (like Lunatic's Pandora in FF VIII, or the name Looney Tunes etc)
I believe if Rob from the Dick Van Dyke show said "any normal man would have virtually (via virtual reality) punched her (Sally Rogers's character in Dick Van Dyke show) avatar in the face" it wouldn't be offensive unlike what he really said in that episode. Sally was a troll character and punching her avatar in a virtual reality game (not her herself) would be revenge for her trolling
I don't find Ari's treatment of Lloyd in Entourage offensive, it's so over the top it can't be taken seriously, and Ari loves Lloyd (not like that).
There is NOTHING offensive about Goonies (1985 movie)
There is NOTHING offensive or wrong about Ralph's empty threats against Alice ie 'one day Alice, one day'. It was funny and he never was going to carry them out
There is NOTHING offensive about Horton Hears a Who
There is NOTHING offensive about the way people are portrayed on Disney's Jungle Cruise ride pre 2020s. They are fictional and don't apply to a real life location
There is NOTHING offensive about Mike Tyson's Punch Out
There is NOTHING offensive about Pepe le Pew (Pepe does not cause rape just like violent video games don't cause violence and Islam doesn't cause Islamic terrorism) There is nothing offensive about him being French, it's light hearted mocking of French people.
There is NOTHING offensive about Porky Pig stuttering
THERE IS NOTHING offensive about the Prince kissing Sleeping Beauty while she is sleeping to wake her up. That is not date rape. It is totally inoffensive
There is NOTHNIG offensive about the Splash Mountain Disney ride
There is NOTHING offensive about Super Mario Odyssey
The term 'doo rag' pc criticism on Survivor went overboard. Maybe that term has some negative conations and the person on Survivor who complained about that term was a teacher who studies race, ethnicity and CRT like subjects so I can live with him complaining about the doo rag since he complains about that stuff for a living but he went too overboard with that pc stuff
There is NOTHING offensive about Tasmanian Devil. He is NOT ABELIST.
There is NOTHING offensive about the song 'Whistle while you work'
There is NOTHING offensive about snow being called white or the term 'white as snow'
There is NOTHING offensive about the term 'white christmas' or the song White Christmas , only cold hearted, Grinch Scrooge freaks would take offense with those terms
The Cleveland Guardians team should be renamed Bluebirds (early name) Blues (early name), Broncos, Forest Citys (original name), Infants (with the nickname 'Babes'), Naps (early name), Spiders (early name), Ohioans
The Edmonton Elks should be renamed to the Algonquian--Montagnais words that sound very similar to Eskimo and that were used by some Native people in the Arctica area (ie the Mi'kmaq people) to refer to snowshoe netter or to net snowshoes (instead being called Eskimos or Elks). The name would refer to Canadians of all races and ethnicities who live in very snowy areas or who love engaging in snow activities like snow shoeing and have nothing to do with Native people. Or they should be renamed the Clown Faces
Edy's Pie should be renamed to the Algonquian--Montagnais words that sound very similar to Eskimo and that were used by some Native people in the Arctica area (ie the Mi'kmaq people) to refer to snowshoe netter or to net snowshoes (instead being called Edy's Pie). The name would be to refer to Canadians of all races and ethnicities who live in very snowy areas or who love engaging in snow activities like snow shoeing and would have nothing to do with Native people. Or Edy's Pie should be renamed Viking Penguin Pie
The Washington Commanders NFL team should be renamed the Hog Hide (Hogs are their nicknames and hide is found on hogs), Washingtonians (complete with the colors they used during the 2020 NFL season), Redhawks, Braves (their original name but here it means the value of Bravery in all humans regardless of race or ethnicity, nothing to do with Native Americans or Native American culture), Social Justice Warriors
I want professional sports teams in other solar systems, galaxies or universes using these names for their professional sports teams on their planets: Redmen (complete with Chief Blackjack as their mascot) , Big Orange Chiefs (complete with Big Chief Bill Orange, the Saltine Warrior as their mascot), Apache
Maybe I'll get SETI to help me send out a message to intelligent life extraterrestrials in other solar systems, galaxies or universes ,requesting that they name some of their professional sports teams on their planets the Redmen (complete with Chief Blackjack as their mascot) , Big Orange Chiefs (complete with Big Chief Bill Orange, the Saltine Warrior as their mascot), Apache
I want to get intelligent life extraterrestrials in other solar systems, galaxies and universes to use the Frito Bandito as a mascot for some of their snack products on their planets. Maybe I'll get SETI to help me send out a message to intelligent life extraterrestrials in other solar systems, galaxies or universes requesting that use the Frito Bandito as a mascot for some of their snack products on their planets
There is nothing wrong with people dressing up for cosplay or in costumes for Harvest in ways that perputate gender norms or gender stereotypes. In fact I RECOMMEND that people dress up in cosplay and for Harvest in costumes (if they celebrate Harvest) in ways that perputate gender norms and gender stereotypes as a way to FU SJWs
I am apolitical to neutral half heartingly agree that it is fine for kids and adults to wear Native American costumes for Harvest and for Cosplay assuming they had advice about such costumes from SJW Native American activists on how to pull it off without offending people
Crime
I am Liberal-Conservative populist on Criminal Justice Reform. While I am glad that DJT’s son in law pushed him to sign it (to shut the liberals up) and I do feel our criminal justice system has issues, I also feel Criminal Justice Reform is a hard left push to go easy on criminals and to undermine our law system and police and that doesn’t fly with me. We should not go easy on criminals as being tough in them teaches them a lesson. Criminal Justice reform will create more crime and cost taxpayers too much. It is a naive concept at best but unpractical
I support an amended SB 714. SB 714 would create blue ribbon commission to reevaluate the criminal justice system and drug policy (drug policy part amended to include only blue ribbon commission members whose views on drugs mesh with my views on drugs below with some ideas taken from Chuck Grassley’s amendment), that would also make recommendations for reform. Keep in mind that the US houses 25 percent of the world's inmates despite having only 5 percent of the world's population
I am against the three letter agencies like the FBI violating the civil liberties of Americans . From going after parents who protest the CRT, to their raids on former Trump officials, to the illegal spying it is clear our civil liberties are being threatened by these bullies
My views on the FBI raid on Donald Trump’s Mara Lago estate generally echo Fox News views on this. That raid was petty, partisan, over the top and in bad taste. It could have been handled better by the FBI, at the very least.
Blacks and whites commit the same amount of violence against Asians.
Oscar Lee Stewart should get the same punishment that any other person would get for killing someone via arson. There are no excuses for what he did.
Violence in lower income place like what is happening in Chicago over the last decade or so like all violence is terrible and needs to stop. I am glad that leaders in those communities have been vocal about taking it seriously in the last few years.
Crimes committed by blacks should be reported just as much and in the same exact way as crimes committed by whites are reported.
I do not believe that the police should be defunded or abolished. It is sad and reactionary that the police and the work they do is now politicized. That type of politicizing should be reimagined and all politicans on both sides who politicize should be defunded (in the political world defunded means
If people want to stop perceived police brutality, police departments across the country should hire BLM members and anti police brutality activists as police officers since they would be the least likely people to use brutality on suspects. Another idea for people who want to stop perceived police brutality is to require police officers to learn Krav Maga control and restraint techniques to deal with violent suspects instead of methods they currently use.
If the police are abolished we'll have vigilantism which would be impractical and objectifiable. I wouldn't mind seeing the Guardian Angels brought back and expanded throughout the US and used in place of cops in some specific instances.
I am against Rashida Tlaib's senseless, illogical proposal to empty prisons. Prisons (all prisons) should be a fixture of society and getting rid of prisons is one the worst ideas I have ever heard. I will fight to make sure she never gets her way with that
I am Liberal Conservative Populist on Ban the Box
I am against the Death Penalty being legal however in rare cases I don't want the death sentences commuted to life sentences but to be carried out instead. Those rare cases are the same rare cases that Mark Hatfield would deny the petition for the death sentence to be commuted to life sentences if he was alive today and Governor of those states.
Drugs/Crime/Stealing
I am against Cocaine, Heroin, LSD and Crack being legalized or decriminalized. I only want weed to be semi criminalized for rec use and legalized for medical use. If weed is to be legalized ,I want weed to be legal in less amounts than it is now and with HEAVY regulation. Drug trafficking should always be illegal with drug traffickers going to prison for that for years
All jobs should drug test employees for Marijuana, Cocaine, Crack, LSD and Heroin
People should NOT use Marijuana, Cocaine, Heroin, LSD or crack for rec use ever. Just say no.
Hard drug users should eventually be transferred to technological incarceration and then finally to a Drug Diversion program where as a whole they'd get slightly less time 'imprisoned' than they do now (though some of them might get somewhat more as a whole)
I also conditionally support mandatory minimum sentencing for hard drug convicts only if it would allow hard drug convicts who show good behavior and reform in prison to be transferred from prison to country club type prisons (not long) and then to anti drug boot camps to finish their sentence
Repeat hard drug offenders who refuse treatment should get way harsher prison sentences than they do now
I support aggressive drug prevention methods to prevent drug use
I am half heartily empathetic to legalizing LSD and Crack but having users who are caught doing those 2 drugs be forced to be subjected to Bitlaha (unless they agree to self isolate for months to maybe a fewish years or more ie unless they are mandated to have the same freedoms and lack of freedom for months to maybe a fewish years or more that Americans in the US had or didn't have in 2020 during the lockdowns in which if they agree to this, their Bitlaha is lifted) .In addition to being forced to wear a badge of shame that shows they are LSD and Crack users for 10+ years while having some degree of community supervision over them for at least 5 or 8 years. My reason is Fentanyl , Cocaine and similar 'Heroin category' drugs are so bad, LSD and Crack look tame by comparison
I want most types of alcohol to be semi illegal in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Malaysia and ,Indonesia
I don't want Alcohol and Liquor to be sold at theme parks, or at outdoor restaurants.
I support blue laws and believe they should be implemented all 50 states.
Stealing is wrong and people should go to prison for stealing.
Gun Rights
I'm a strong supporter of the Second Amendment. I am skeptical of gun control
I am pro gun (A-- grade from the NRA, though in college I got grades here and there that were worse than the grade I was expecting, sometimes on rare occasions, 3 letter grades worse), but I like bows and yumis and crossbows instead. I support open carry and people bringing their guns to work. Gun control laws are counterproductive, they don't work, and you can't compare the US to gun restricting countries due the relative uniqueness of the US and also due to its long gun culture. If guns are banned ,the bad people will still get illegal guns anyway. We've been giving gun control activists our gun rights little by little for too long.
Liberals are hypocrites on gun control. They go on and on about abortion rights yet they don't care about the rights of lawful citizens to protect themselves with their guns. Liberals claim woman are sensible enough to make a decision to abort to keep a child, yet they don't believe that gun owners are sensible enough to keep their guns or to buy guns. Liberals claim they are 'for the poor', 'for the oppressed' yet apparently liberals aren't for defenseless citizens (due to them being anti gun) or for unborn babies (due to abortion laws). Libreals are hypocrites on nearly every issue. Many
However I admit I get uneasy around gun owners. It certainly would not hurt for gun owners to be strongly encouraged to practice gun safety. The sky wouldn’t fall if Republicans and gun owners tried to accept some common sense ideas for gun control (Chris Murphy has the right idea)
Some of my other views on gun control are militantly moderate and match some views on that issue from the book Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA1#v=onepage&q&f=false
I am against the 2018 March for your life protests. Those protests were anti gun, senseless and almost as bad as the Parkland shooting itself. If I knew about those protests back then, I would have attempted to shut those protests down. David Hogg is an anti gun troll who is exploiting the death of his classmates for fame and God will make him pay for that.
Animal Rights
I am against Zoophilia and it should stay illegal forever. Science has proven that Zoophilia causes disease and death.
I believe animals should be in circuses but only a few circuses in their lives then retire them to wildlife conservations. I fully support the existence of Wildlife Conservations
There is nothing wrong with riding on Elephants or Camels as long as the person is light and the Elephant or Camel is in top shape and not on them for very long.
I support bull fighting and the Calgary Stampede using live animals.
I am against Critical Animal Studies and I want Critical Animal Studies to be blacklisted and censored from society
I am against hunting. I am apolitical to conditionally half heartingly Christian Democratic on hunting on the condition that hunting has to be done like those new age millennial hunters do where those new age hunters are kind and loving toward their animal target before killing them in a very humane way
I am not against fishing, but I am not a fan of people fishing at all since I feel fishing is murder (though I am fine with people doing catch and release, or mercy killing a fish). The type of fishing outside of those 2 things I am fine with is fishing that was done in the bible and in Israel during biblical times
I am against people hitting pets to discipline them (and even if they do so lightly). People should never hit their pet under any circumstance unless it is in self defense and even then with a focus on de escalation and not hurting their pet.
I am against goose egg addling and I feel that should be illegal
voting elections
I believe that limiting voting for people is not good .I believe that we need to increase voting turn out for our coalition (which includes trying to get new voters to vote dealigned or R, Blexit ,as controversial as it is is step in the right direction) instead of limiting votes. I don't condemn Georgia and Texas new voting laws and I am open to supporting those laws
Ideally we should vote like on Wikipedia during Arbcom elections, everyone votes as many times as they want.
I support non strict photo ids being required to vote (like in Montana, Hawaii, Idaho, Louisiana, Michigan, Rhode Island, and South Dakota) .
Exceptions for this requirement would be for people who are victims of domestic abuse, sexual assault or stalking and have a "confidential listing" or have religious objections to being photographed
I'd also include the option for the voter (who couldn't meet non strict photo id requirements) to be allowed to use vote trading at the polling place or a federal location in which someone votes on their behalf for the candidate of their choice in the current election that they can't vote in.
In turn, in the future when the ineligible voter can meet non strict photo id requirements they can then vote for the candidate of the person who they vote traded with in the previous election, along with voting whoever they want to vote for in that future election too.
I support having poll workers obsessively and thoroughly reading and checking the voter rolls
All voters should be required by law to show id when they register to vote
I am against removing or replacing the Electoral college.
I am against Instant runoff voting (except when it helps DINOS-DIANS, Republicans, Independants or Third Party candidates win an election)
These Democrat like votes aren’t too far off from votes I would make but I would do so with Post Conservative and Militantly Moderate amendments added to them , abstentions or similar measures to most of them
I support First past the post elections
I support direct democracy replacing representive democracy and giving people a more clear picture of political things that represents the interests of all citizens equally regardless of identity
I support citizen participation toward popular unity to aspire toward recovering politics to serve people.
I support using democracy to convert privileges of a few into rights of the majority thus I support the direct democratic participation of all persons in the areas of political decision making, as well as in the execution of public policies.
I support the direct and equal participation all citizens in the decision making process i.e in the execution of public policies
I am open to a full and comprehensive e-governance/e-voting and government digitization
DC should not become a state
Former felons should not vote under most circumstances
Prison inmates should only vote if they are imprisoned within their voting electorate and only if they have shown good behavior in prison
On the 2020 Presidential election, whether I believe it was stolen by Democrats. I am apolitical on whether the election was stolen. However, as I try to ignore that story, whenever I accidently read or hear something about it, my mind and gut tells me that the election was stolen by the Democrats. I don't want that to be true, and I don't want to say that the election was stolen by the Democrats but I can't force my mind and gut to tell me that there was no election fraud. So I am forced to have those thoughts and feelings against my will. I will say that I know for a fact that the Democrats and Joe Biden used every loophole possible to unfairly win the 2020 Presidential election. and that the Democrats and Joe Biden broke the spirit of the law but maybe not technically not the law itself in terms of unfairly winning the 2020 Presidential election . But if you aren’t loopholing or cheating you aren’t trying so whatever
I believe that Barack Obama was born in Hawaii and that is he is and always has been as legal of a citizen as me and my parents etc. However, he did spend a big chunk of his childhood and youth living in Indonesia which means, that while he is a legal US citizen his whole life, he isn't as firmly entrenched in American culture as people who spent more time or their whole childhood and youth living in the US since Obama lived in Indonesia for many years as a child and youth. Moreover, the whole birther conspiracy theory nonsense is a DEMOCRAT CONSPIRACY THEORY since it was originally started by Hillary Clinton and her campaign in 2008 when she was primarying against Obama for the 2008 Democratic Nomination. So Democrats, Hillary Clinton and her supporters are the ones who should be called Birthers and the Republicans and conservatives who believed and spread that only did so because of the Democrats, Hillary Clinton and her supporters.
Democrats, and Liberals must know at least somewhat they even legal migrants are more Democrat than Republican. So if I was a legal migrant from somewhere like Australia or Venezuela, I'd be wary of Democrats being so welcoming and accommodating to me when I moved here since I'd think 'hey maybe they are trying to use me for my vote' (but that's just me)
International issues (war/international relations/issues in other countries etc)
Military/Isolationism/Wars in general
I am above average on foreign policy but I have a ‘Zell Miller antiwar’ streak in me
I am anti war most of the time but I am anti war due to Lockean love of Liberty and being anti government (ie war is big gov). Basically I am anti war for the same reasons Mark Twain was anti war.
Since I am defacto anti war/not supportive of wars, I am by default against all countries on Earth going to war/me non supportive of all countries on Earth going to war . For example, after the outbreak of each war I check to see if an extremely rare and overwhelming case for me supporting that war being waged exists and if it doesn't then I keep my default anti war/not supportive position on that war. It takes more for me to support a war than for me to say that I don't condemn a war. I haven't supported a war since I supported the Iraq War in early 2003 (before changing my mind in March 2003 and being against the Iraq War)
I am very pro Military and very pro Veteran despite being anti war
I support the Post 9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act
I am against Imperialism
I am more positive towards nationalism and military intervention than towards multicultural internationalism
I am against the Open Skies Treaty
I am a Left Wing Human Interventionalist
I am Post Conservative on US Isolationism which matches journalist Matthew Sheffield’s view of US Isolationism to the tee
I strongly don’t support Globalism and much rather prefer radical localism
I was and I still am against the Patriot Act
My views on Islamic terrorism are generally militantly moderate (though I am pro Muslim). I agree with more than a few views on Islamic terrorism from the book Mediations of a Militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA1#v=onepage&q&f=false
I do not agree with Sully's view that Donald Trump showed 'utter and vulgar disrespect and contempt' for US troops past and present. Trump treated the US military mostly decent to good as President. The Atlantic's report that Donald Trump had called WWI heroes 'suckers' and 'losers' is FAKE NEWS and NOT TRUE AT ALL. Sully has to admit that Barack Obama was either the same, not much better or worse as President for our military than Donald Trump and that Jesse Ventura's comments about our military is as bad or worse than anything that Donald Trump ever said about them as President.
World
I retroactively support an alternate reality Forth Position version of the fictional-mythological Second French Empire-Marxist Communist Party of the Soviet Union conjunction who existed in on alternate reality Earth in the early to early mid 20th century
I-P
I am pro Israel and pro co-exist (I have at least a little Jewish ancestry), and I see leftist hatred toward Israel, Israelites, Zionism and similar targets as a silver lining (even though I abhor them for their hatred toward us), in that it proves they are hypocrites and exposes their hatred to people who don't know they are bigots. I am somewhere between Hillary Clinton and Mike Pence on the Israel-Palestinian conflict in general with a twist.
I support Anti BDS laws since I hate the BDS movement
I wouldn't mind seeing Israel expanded to become Greater Israel and having an unrecognized Palestinian state (like how the Judean provisional government from AD 66-68 and the Free Lebanon state from 1979-1984 were unrecognized states) located somewhere within Greater Israel
I believe that Benjamin Netanayahu was too tough on Palestine and the Palestinians at times
I support a 2 state solution for Israel-Palestine that is based on Donald Trump's peace plan map. However, I believe that the peace plan should have the Allied Bedouin Tribes be given the land that is marked for the Palestinians in that plan and thus that Palestinian state should instead be an Allied Bedouin Tribe state. Palestinians can still live in this Allied Bedouin Tribe state but they would be a Dependent territory and Associated State of this Allied Bedouin Tribe state in the same way that the Cook Islands and Niue are Dependent territories and Associated States of New Zealand. The Palestinians would also be given a legal clause which allows them to secede from the Allied Bedouin Tribe state like how the Old South states seceded from the United States in 1861 to form the CSA. However in doing they would risk a Civil War similar to the US Civil War.
As late as 1918, leaders of Arab countries, including Emir Feisal (later King of Syria) supported aspirations to create a state for Israel. But extreme Arab militant groups like the Mufti soon replaced the moderates and diplomacy gave way to terror.
Moreover, the Jews were the original Palestinians so you can say I am pro 'original Palestine' (Israelis/Jews). Palestinians of today have a rich and great history. They are also descended from Ishmael ,Abraham's other son and hold a key place in Judeao Christian history. Some of the Palestinians ancestors are the Phillistines, Jordnians, Syrians etc.
Deep down or systematically, I am sort of a fan Israel's Zionism. Notwithstanding, while I have no problem with Zionism or Republicans or Democrats embracing Zionism, I feel sometimes both parties go a bit too far with their support or love for Zionism and we need to step back a little from that as to not get carried away.
It would have been cool if in BC times, God created hundreds of hypothetical what if religions to be his people (covering everyone on Earth) instead of just the Jewish religion and then God gave each of those hypothetical what if religions their own homelands. It would further be cooler if in the late 1940s and early 1950s, instead of just creating Israel for the Jews, the UN etc also created hundreds of these hypothetical what if religious homelands for billions of people on Earth who belong to (and are descended from) each of those hypothetical what if religions to live in.
I support Israel's settlements in the West Bank and Gaza. I support Jewish settlers in the West Bank as they are mostly peaceful and some times when they use violence or aggression against the Palestinians it is in self defense. I support the West bank enclaves and the enclave laws
I approve of the way that Israel and Israeli government treats Palestinians (including via labor, marriage laws, IDs). I support Israel's road system, land access and resources, checkpoints and West Bank barrier
There is nothing wrong with the infrastructures in Israel-Palestine. Different cultures mean different type of buildings. It's a myth to think the infrastructure differences is something devious
Israel treats Palestinians better than any Middle East country treats it minorities
Palestinians use their citizens as shields for their rockets ,Israel uses rockets as shields for their citizens.
More links, though I am open minded to be open hearted to the counter viewpoints in these links if someone can debate me on them like how Ronald Reagan debated Billy Graham in the 1950s:

I support the IDF the vast majority of the time (when I don't temporarily oscillate to half heartingly toxicly sympathizing with the Palestinians as I state below) and I realize because war is hell that at least somewhat excuses some of their more brutal actions (which is also why I am able to toxicly sympathize, albeit half heartingly with the Palestinians a temporary oscillations every now and then)
Since 2003 I've been known to temporarily oscillate every now and then to being half heartingly toxicly sympathetic to the Palestinians but each time I do I see things which have me go right back to being as Pro Israel as I always am on that issue
I believe that the US embassy should move to Ancient biblical city of Bethel instead of being in Jerusalem. https://www.bibleplaces.com/bethel/
I strongly believe that Rashida Tlaib should not have given in to far left anti Israel bullies and she should have went to Israel/Palestine as she planned.
I support the National Alliance (Itay-Israel alliance led by Gianfranco Fini)
I support the Mossad. I especially like how the Mossad went to places like South America, then covertly kidnapped, captured and brought to Israel for justice those former NDSAP fascists in the 1960s etc
My views on China are generally militantly moderate and match views on China from the book Mediations of a militant Moderate https://books.google.com/books?id=VMZHuyK5NTsC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA1#v=onepage&q&f=false
The 2022 Winter Olympics being played on schedule while the 2020 Summer Olympics weren't played on schedule seems hypocritical. I am against boycottting sporting events and I would not have encouraged anyone to boycott the 2022 Winter Olympics but at the same time I am fine with people boycotting the 2022 Winter Olympics.
China is very wrong for their 1 2 3 child policies, for employing Communism, and for being anti Christian. Moreover they are wrong for propping up Mao Zedong who was a fascist and a dictator (dictator of the proclyte at best) who commited senseless murders on innocent victims. He gets a D---- grade at BEST and mostly because of what he did at the start of his run as leader of China. I am also against China's social credit system.
I am apolitical on China's pandemic laws etc.
I condemn China for getting involved in the US 2020 racial unrest situations. I also strongly condemn China for trying to make our children in this country woke through cultural marxist propaganda
Whether China did genocide to Uyghurs or not is moot (but it was a genocide), China still committed human rights violations against them and thus they are very wrong to treat the Uyghurs the way they did.
The US necons like George W Bush , Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Barack Obama etc should shoulder some of the blame for inspiring China's war on 'terror' against the Uyghurs since George W Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld started the war on 'terror' and Barack Obama continued it into the 2010s.
Moreover a few of the Uyghurs were fighting for extremist organizations in Syria so China overreacted majorly because of that. Never the less, none of the above things are excuses for China to commit genocide and abuse. China should be totally condemned. China should have use anti terrorism methods that Donald Trump used as President, to combat the perceived Uyghur terrorism.
China is wrong to use forced labor they should set their forced laborers free and pay them, as I write below.
I believe China should use a 'Dany from Game of Thrones type' of Encomienda system (an Encomienda system was used by Christopher Columbus and his crew used in the Caribbean on natives during his 7 year rule but this version would be progressive) on laborers who do the jobs that current forced laborers do in China.
This Dany from Game of Thrones type of Encomienda system would be the same exact type of Encomienda system that Dany from Game of Thrones would approve of China using on laborers. Since she is a fair ruler, the laborers would thus be paid and treated fairly and China's economy would improve. China and the CCP would see this as so unique they'd agree to it even though it would be Pro laborer and anti forced laborer.
I believe sanctioning China privately and indirectly is the way to go. I have blind faith that China will continue to get better as a country like they always have. But private and indirect sanctioning are a good way to keep guiding China in that direction.
I support Hong Kong in their dispute with China. But I emphatize with China in that dispute despite me being on Hong Kong's side
I am apolitical on the China-Taiwan dispute
I was against the Nuclear Freeze in the 1980s and early 1990s only because I knew that the US having Nuclear weapons was to prevent the Soviet Union from using their Nuclear weapons. To this day I am still against a Nuclear Freeze due to countries like Russia, Iran and North Korea having Nuclear weapons. I want a world free of Nuclear Weapons but I will not support a Nuclear Freeze until countries like Russia, Iran and North Korea also agree to give up their Nuclear Weapons too. No one wants a Nuclear war.
The Soviet Union was a Socialist country from the 1920s until 1991 and anyone who says otherwise is a fool
I retroactively support the Jewish people supporting moderate changes within the Russian Empire in the early 20th century since Jews were treated horribly in the Russian Empire for decades or even centuries
I retroactively sympathize with but pragmatically lean not support for the Jewish people of the early 20th century supporting revolutionary changes within the Russian Empire in the early 20th century.
I condemn the innocent deaths in the October Revolution (though all of those innocent victims are in heave now) but I basically won't condemn the October Revolution itself since the October Revolution created the USSR, and the USSR caused the Red Scare in the US.
If the October Revolution never happened, there would have been no Red Scare in the US and the US would have been socialist or even communist throughout the 20th century and even today (which would have been and would be horrible in every possible way since I am an anti communist, and a big part of my fiscal views are on the Capitalism spectrum). So hence my retroactive non condemnation of the October Revolution
Arthur Rosenberg and Ethel Rosenberg were TRAITORS and they should have spent many decades in prison for their treason instead of being put to death. Their evil treason caused countless deaths in Korea and they were disgusting commie terrorists. They sold out to our enemies and they are a disgrace to the US.
While I don't support Russia's invasion of Ukraine, I do not condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine either . I prefer a more isolationist approach. If the situations were reversed, and Ukraine did to Russia what Russia did to Ukraine, I would also say “While I don’t support Ukraine’s invasion of Russia, I do not condemn Ukraine’s invasion of Russia either, I prefer a more isolationist approach”.
The US and Europe should try to de escalate the Russia-Ukraine crisis instead of inflaming it
The fact that the Russia-Ukraine conflict is a partisan political issue or even a political issue itself is a sad testement to our broken political system
I was and I am still against Ukraine joining NATO
In a absolute world, Crimea would be part of Russia not Ukraine. As it is now, Crimea should have the same position with Russia and Ukraine that is between the position that Crimea had with Ukraine and Russia from 1918-1922 and a separate equal Multination state structure between Crimea and Russia and Crimea and Ukraine (Crimea-Russia, Crimea-Ukraine but without a Multination state structure between Russia and Ukraine) that Austria and Hungary had with each other from 1867-1918 when they were Austria-Hungary
Ukraine deserves criticism for not developing Donbas and leaving it open to Russia and other forces
I am against the Maidan Coup which was an illegal act which removed a legit elected head of state
I oscillate between being apolitical on whether the People's Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk should become (and be recognized as) as part of Russia , me wanting the People's Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk to stay as part of Ukraine but have the same relationship with Russia that France had with Germany from 1940-1944 under Vichy rule and me wanting the People's Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk to be a client state to Russia in the same way that Israel was a client state to the Roman Republican during the The Herodian Kingdom of Judea time period and the Herodian Tetrarchy of Judea time period
In any case, The People's Republic of Donetsk and Lugansk (if its controlled by Ukraine) should have a relationship with Russia that is between the relationship those areas had as part of Ukraine with Russia under Viktor Yanukovych and just short of the relationship that South Ossetia currently has with Russia
I am against Russia being sanctioned by the US. I can live with penalties against Russia from the US that are just short of sanctions by we need to be AmericaFirst and worry about our own country.
I hope the US and European sanctions and some penalties against Russia stay forever. Not because of the war in Ukraine but because it would be hypocritical to make such sanctions and some such penalties against them and then end those sanctions and some of those penalties at a later time and pretend everything is normal. I don't agree with the sanctions and penalties but since they are made most of them should stick.
I am 100 percent against the US sending troops to go to war with Russia under any circumstance barring a direct hit from Russia on our soil. I am also against the US etc setting up a No Fly Zone
I am fully against companies (like Big Tech) suspending their products and services to Russia. Russian citizens are being wrongly and punitively penalized because of their government. I call for a full boycott of every company who engages in these acts They never did this to Muslims in countries where ISIS or Al Qaeda are from, yet they do it with Russia? Hypocrite much. History will condemn Google, Microsoft, Sony for their actions with Russia. It goes against human decency, will only make Russians hate those companies and won't do anything. Hurting innocent people through refusing them service to force them to have the view you want is fascist and evil
I believe that the we should hack the bank accounts of Russian Olyriachs and force them to be bankrupt for the rest of their lives. Not because of Russia's war with Ukraine and not for any political reason but simply because they are too rich and nobody should have that much money. If we can force them into bankruptcy we can have a slow trickle effect which leads to less wealth hoarding by filthy rich trolls. No more yachts for them ,no more vacations for them, force them to live like the rest of us. They are easy and acceptable targets
It is hypocritical and wrong to ban innocent Russians from entering other countries .Liberals cried over a Muslim travel ban by Donald Trump during the reign of ISIS yet they applaud this? Hypocrite much. I believe banning innocent Russians from going to other countries because of Russia going to war with Ukraine is wrong, senseless and fascist and is just as bad as Donald Trump's Muslim travel ban in 2017. I am fully against the Russia flight ban by the US and Europe. It is draconian, fascist and evil. It's also a violation of freedom of movement. I hope all Russians permanelty boycott the US and all countries that banned flights to and from Russia.
Some Russians have been unfairly fired due to their place of origin by fascist Russophobes. Their firings are a violation of Employement Acts ,since they were singled out due to their place of origin. These Russians being unfairly fired is akin to McCarthysim or what the US did to Japanese Americans right after Pearl Harbor. Freedom of speech means telling people what they don't want to hear. We must end extreme cancel culture and modern day McCarthyism
I am against Anna Nebretko getting fired by the Metropolitian Opera House. There was no reason to fire her and Peter Gelb should be fired on the spot for what he did.
I am against the Bolshoi Ballet being fired. They did nothing wrong and they were unfairly fired for no reason.
The Steele Dosier was false
Middle East/North Africa/Central Asia
Muslim world in general
Islam
Islam is not a bad religion, it's not Judeo Christianity but it shares a link to Judeo Christianity (Abraham). If Muslims stay true to Islam, maybe they will go to heaven the same way that the Native Americans who lived moral lives and died before Christopher Columbus came to the Americas went to heaven.
Islam has good and bad like any other religion. Not all criticism of Islam is Islamaphobic and some criticism of Islam is genuine and constructive. Some sects of Islam do treat women and LGBTQ people unfairly which is wrong. People should avoid criticizing things in Islam that they don't understand because if they don't avoid doing that, they'll look ignorant like how Donald Trump looked ignorant in 2016 for his criticism of Ghazala Khan. People should only criticize Islam in a genuine, constructive way that is free of Islamaphobia.
I believe that some of Mohammad Tawhid's criticism of Islam is accurate, constructive and valid. Tawhid is a somewhat good, constructive critic of Islam.
This article echos my feelings about the Clock boy incident from 2015: https://web.archive.org/web/20190205021737/https://dailycaller.com/2015/09/28/on-ahmeds-clock-president-obama-once-again-spoke-too-soon/
I am against Donald Trump's Muslim travel ban
It is wrong that Muslims in fringe sects of Islam in rare places persecute gays . That is wrong and gays should be as free from abuse by fringe sects of Islam in rare places in Muslim countries as they are here. I am fine with gay marriage being banned in Muslim countries, but gays should not be abused in any way shape or form in Muslim countries or anywhere.
I am against France and other countries banning Muslims women from wearing Burkinis and Burqas. I support Muslim women wearing Burkinis and Burqas. I am also against Iran forcing Muslim women to wear Burqas. Freedom of expression means freedom for Muslim women to wear or not wear what they want. First they came for the Muslims ..then they will come for us Christians and ban us from wearing Christian symbols in public.
Due to the US government and some far left people smearing and treating all Donald Trump supporters (instead of just the fringe ones) as domestic terrorists and violent extremists, I empathize even more with Muslims due to the similarly harsh smearing and treatment that they have similarly gotten by the US government and extremists on the other side of the isle since 9/11 (especially after 9/11 and during the age of ISIS). I have seen some far left people imply or dog whistle that all Trump supporters are domestic terrorists or violent extremists (instead of labeling and going after just the fringe part of the MAGA movement as domestic terrorists) When I was a liberal, I always defended Muslims when they were attacked by neocons since I emphasized with them. Now based on what I wrote above, I will emphasize even more with Muslims.
I don't believe the October 31 2018 truck attack in NYC or the Swedish truck attack in 2017 were Islamic terrorism. I am not even that sure that the 2016 Nice lorre attacks was Islamic terrorism (or at least I am not that sure if Islamic terrorism was the primary motive of the attacks). Saying that every time a Muslim commits mass murder is Islamic terrorism is bigoted, ignorant, naive and offensive. However, on the flip side, a few attacks by Muslims that are not labele as Islamic terrorismare technically Islamic terrorism (the Fort Hood shooting for example). But there are more times Muslims committing crimes are falsely accused of Islamic terrorism than there are times when Muslims do commit Islamic terrorism and said attacks are not labeled as Islamic terrorism
I am tempted to say that there are more atheists in Al Qaeda, ISIS, Abu Nidal, Hezbollah than there are Muslims. If they were true Muslims, they would be peaceful since Islam is a religion of peace. Al Qaeda and ISIS are terrorists not militants
Christians who are killed in the Middle East by ISIS should be labeled as Christians and not worshippers
Iran/Syria/Libya/Iraq/Afghanistan
I refuse to criticize Donald Trump for his targeted killing of Qasem Soleimani. Ideally it would have been better if he diplomatically captured Soleimani and put him in one of Andrew Cuomo’s nursing homes for at least a few years, but he is a terrorist. I am not enthused about the killing and it is the reason why I hate war and countries being big brother to other countries but it was neccessary. Trump is a victim of neocon warmonger haggling so he couldn’t help himself and not kill Qasem Soleimani (which obviously would have been better)
I support legislation, S. 759 which prohibits the use of funds for military operations in Iran without the prior approval of Congress.
I fully support Donald Trump withdrawing the US from Syria in 2019 and I applaud him for it. The situation in Syria was “Beirut on steroids,” . The US should never get involved in a five sided argument
I was and still am against the Libya War (the one under Barack Obama) .The Libyan war is also bad because it was not authorized by Congress
I am a skeptic of the Arab spring
However, I empathize with the view that the Iraq War was a justifiable war (ymmv). I also believe that some anti Iraq war people went too far in opposing the Iraq War. I am also mixed on repealing the 2002 Iraq War resolution. All ‘War is Hell’
I support the Iraq War troop surge by George W Bush in 2007. It was a smart strategy and helped turn the war around for us.
Chris Kyle was a war hero and his movie was not offensive at all
I am glad that the UN sanctioned Iraq in the 1990s, Iraq deserved those sanctions.
The Gulf War was a justifiable war (which doesn't mean I support it) but I am toxically understanding and sensitive to anti Gulf War peoples oppositions to that war
I supported the Afghanistan War but we should have pulled out of Afghanistan in 2009 or in 2012
Joe Biden botched the Afghanistan pullout in 2021 and he should be criticized for that. But I could care less about something that has no effect on me like a botched pullout
Europe
I support Podemos’s leaders being absorbed into the capitalist establishment and being friendly with the King of Spain
I stand up for the tradition of the Spanish republic who was defeated in the 1936-1939 civil war
I defend the regime of 1978 ‘bourgeois’ Spanish Constitution on which this regime was established in the same way that Podemos does
I retroactively support the Red Army Faction (WG 1970s 1980s)
I support the Conservative Revolution (Germany 1920s)
Asia conflict issues
I do not condemn the 2021 coup de tat in Myanmar ,its none of my business
I fully support the way that Donald Trump handled North Korea
I would have been against the Vietnam War if I was alive back then after initially supporting it (though I am against some far left parts of the anti war movement and against the hate that the veterans got from anti war people). I have been against the Vietnam War my whole life. I am against the nature of John Kerry’s opposition to the Vietnam War
I am disgusted with some of George Mcgovern’s platforms and the drug , anti solider/military and commune nature of the 1960s counterculture along with minor critiques of that counterculture in other areas
I don't believe that Ronald Reagan did enough to help Vietnam POWs/MIAs during his presidency and I support Ross Perot helping Vietnam POWs/MIAs in the 1970s and 1980s
I am against the US going to war with the Philippines in the Philippine-American War since it was imperialism etc.
Africa
I am apolitical to lean abstain-present on President Ronald Reagan vetoing the UN economic sanctions against South Africa for apartheid . When I heard about Reagan vetoing those UN economic sanctions against South Africa as a kid, I was non hostile to Reagan vetoing those UN economic sanctions because I always viewed Ronald Reagan in a positive light in the 1980s. But now I am apolitical to lean abstain-present on him vetoing the UN economic sanctions against South Africa for Apartheid
Americas conflicts
I support Panama canal being built
I don't care about Confederate statues, monuments, glorification or flags. The CW ended almost a century and a half ago and I live in the present and deal with things that have to do with the present.
I am against the abuse and hatred that the Copperheads got during the Civil War. I can't condemn the Copperheads for being anti war because I am also anti war just like they are so I would be a hypocrite if I criticized them for their anti war stance. I retroactively support their right to protest and I sort of pity them.
I enjoy the political messages (ie morals of the story) of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn
I agree with the sentiment expressed in this article from the Federalist about the Northerners of the 19th century and toward the Old South and Confederacy
I between involuntarily pity and somewhat condone Jim Webb and his views on the CSA since I am not his parent and I cannot force him to want to go back in time to destroy the CSA in 1861
I support sanctions as opposed to embargo against Cuba but a specific type that is viewed good on both sides (but mostly on the neocon side). I support the Cuban 2021 protesters
I am neutral on whether the US should have went to war with Spain in the Spanish-American War
Xtians
Well it certainly wouldn't hurt for people to always follow the Two Commandments of Matthew-22-34-40
High ranking Jewish authorities (ie Sadducees and Pharisees) conspired with non Jewish leaders to put Jesus to death. They were jealous of Jesus, and saw him as a threat (Jesus constantly called out the Sadducees and Pharisees for their hypocrisy and evil ways during his ministry).
An unruly mob of people (the vast vast majority of whom were Jewish), in Jerusalem called out for the Romans to crucify and kill Jesus. In Matthew 27:25, Pontius Pilate washed his hands of Jesus's blood and those mob of people (the vast vast majority of whom were Jewish) who had called for Jesus to be crucified, told Pilate "His blood be on us and our children! In the Gospel of John (John 5:18, John 7:1, John 8:37) John shows that Jews wanting to kill Jesus throughout his ministry . Paul, who was himself a Jew, wrote similar things about Jews relationship with Jesus. Paul persuected Christians when he was still Jewish (1 Thess 2:14-15, Phil 3:5-6)
It doesn't matter because Jesus's death was predestined by God as a plan to save humanity. If Jesus wasn't crucified and killed, no Christians would be saved so the Jewish peoples' role in Jesus death saved humanity, because if he didn't get crucifed and killed, none of us would be able to have eternal life. Jesus gave his life willingly as a sacrifice for sin (Mark 10:45, John 18:11). It was Christians' sins that was the most directly responsible for the death of Jesus (Romans 5:8-9, 1 Timothy 1:15) Jesus rose from the dead 3 days later anyway and rose to heaven on his own free will.
Jesus was white, Mary was white and we should not get rid any images, statues, paintings, art etc of a white Jesus, a white Mary or white biblical people. But I feel even more strongly that this shouldn’t have even been a political issue than I do about my view on it.
A lot of Christians (ie Russian orthodox Christians) , Jewish people, Muslims etc are being perscutted by their faith due to freedom from religion acts by our government which takes our right to practice our religion in public away. Our country was founded on biblical principals, and we need to fight against anti Christian Atheists and agonists and their allies so we can go back to being a JudeoAbrahamaniacChristian nation.
From bible “But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere. For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life.”
From bible “ The Holy Spirit dwells in the hearts of true believers, the curtain was torn, the lamb of God was sacrificed for all mankind and rose again. That’s worth celebrating.”
I want the Tridentine Mass (1962 Roman Missal) to continue to be celebrated just like it has been celebrated for the last 15 years. I support Pope Benedict's Summorum Pontificum
I'd be very open to the idea of the Tridentine Mass (1962 Roman Missal) being the ordinary form and the Tridentine Mass (1955-1961 form of the liturgy or 1940s-1950 form of the liturgy ) being the Extraordinary form
I used to go the Knights of Columbus as a child and teenager a few times a year. The Knights of Columbus is a great organization.
Science
Science and Psychology are not infallible and they are wrong some of the time (they are HUMANS not Gods). Scientists and shrinks are right most of the time, but on Reincarnation, whether or not to suspend disrespectful students, critical race theory, whether or not to spank children, on the everybody gets a trophy on whether hard drugs should stay illegal, on whether Evolution vs Theistic Evolution, on the afterlife, and on some similar things they are wrong.
climate
I support the Conservation of natural resources
I am against the government and social media companies censoring and blocking people who criticize green energy transition. Such actions by the government and social media companies is FASCIST authoritarian censorship and is against the values that our country was founded on. That is shutting down free speech by stifling legit criticism of the government and I will not allow the government to do that. I swear to god
Our eco systems (which guarantee life and the survival of thousands of animal and plant species) are being destroyed and these political consequences are of a productive model of accumulation and consumption, which is based on an increasingly extreme capitalism, which has morphed since the 1980s in its latest version of neoliberalism. The concentration of natural resources, by a select few, and those resources‘ waste by certain minorities caused, among other problems, climate change
Our economic crisis is also an environmental crisis/climate change along with the scarcity of natural resources are the origin of most of our geopolitical conflicts and migration criseses. This model has been shown to be speculatively short term,, unsustainable and pretty unfair, causing the enrichment of a minority of the planet’s population at the expense of the overexploitation of natural resources causing problems and exhaustion for future generations.
I support environmentalism that is not mistaken about who the real people are
Like the fault of evictions (like during recessions) is not of some families that supposedly lived beyond their means, but is of a speculative and pirate type financial/economic system that has been played in a casino savings of the working people, climate change is similarly not to blame for the consumption habits of humble people but instead for the great economic powers who have benefited from the extractive economy. I acknowledge that ordinary people develop the habit of recycling, knowing perfectly well that 30 percent of the greenhouse gases emitted into our planet’s atmosphere during the last 50 years comes from only twenty global companies.
Our environmentalism activism must promote a multidisciplinary approach which is included in different fields of political action: including in the management of energy and water resources to land-urban planning and management, housing access and mobility, a smart food and health consumption policy linked to daily problems such as local air pollution and waste management.
I am fine with tools which expands traditional speeches of our green parties aimed mainly at urban, university and activist classes (in a non ‘college liberal’ way), that can be labor claim integrated , improving public services like access to education, water, food production, energy, transport etc promote preservation for the future
We must bet on the economy to be back at the service of the people , natural resources, way of life and no the other way around
The territorial component has to be quintessential and strike a balance in the rural and urban sphere that passes through an improved balance of our existing distribution of power, through necessary transition towards transformational models and different distributed resources, reconciling the preservating natural heritage of the rural environment with improving the living conditions of our population, with a focused leading role which goes beyond the subaltern thinking of simple pantry or resource source for large cities, while valuing the legacy, experience and knowledge of our lands and their interconnected plural reality.
Enviromental Racism is a myth. There is no such thing as enviormental racism.
I believe in climate change, but I don't believe that Colonial, racist or patriarchal systems created or fueled it. Climate Change is not a manner of human rights. I am against Greta Thunberg's radical views on Climate Change.
Climate Change will never cause temperatures to rise beyond 5.4F. I don't believe that the Tail End risks of Climate Change will ever happen.
Climate Change Apocalypse predictions may really be pointing to the Biblical Apocalypse (ie using the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse imagery).
I pragmatically don't believe that the Climate Change Apocalypse type of climate change will happen.
I reject Deep Adaption and Jem Bernall's Deep Adaption. Deep Adaption climate predictions and Jem Bernall's climate predictions are way too Exaggerative.
I don't condemn Piers Corbyn for his views on Climate Change. He is very likely wrong, but if he doesn't want to believe in Climate Change, I say let him not believe it, no skin of my teeth. Corbyn's Climate Change skepticism will be proven wrong officially in the not so distant future when Climate Change's full effects are fully happening for all to see, too bad he won't be alive to see he was wrong on Climate Change. Since he is a weather person, I put a little more stock into his Climate Change views than the other skeptics
Liberals are hypocrites on Climate Change and there is nothing wrong with pointing that out. I have a recommendation for energy conservation - Let's keep the Liberals' private jets on the ground
I have some sixth political position views about climate change that don't fit into any sort of political ideology on Climate Change checkbox (due to those views being unique and outside the box).
I also have a few Post Conservative views on Climate Change which matches some of journalist Matthew Sheffield’s views of US Climate Change to the tee
I am against plastic bag bans, paper straw bans. I am against the Nord Steam pipeline being built.
I support the Keystone Pipeline being built
I support the US developing its own energy sources so we don't have to rely on foreign energy anymore
I support increased logging on federal lands
I support Nuclear Energy and Wind Energy
Space
I support sending humans into space which is why I hope NASA brings the Space Shuttle program back. I hope one day space travel becomes as common as airline travel.
Biology/Chemistry/Physics
I believe that Intelligent Design is real for Earth, life on Earth, all other planets in our universe and all life on planets in our universe. I also believe that Progressive Creationism is real in some other universes (and all life in said universes) which have different laws of nature
I am third political position to lean neutral on Joe Scarborough's 2005 Thiomersal view.
I am more than pitifully , cautiously somewhat supportive of Dr Oz's reaction to his wife not allowing their kids to be vaxxed years ago
I am apolitical on pandemic politics but I do have a few left right views on it as noted below:
Sara Haines is wrong. Face coverings will NOT and should NOT be a permanat thing in the US or anywhere. When there are no viruses going around, people shouldn't wear face coverings and anyone who thinks otherwise is a paranoid nut who needs mental help. However, I would not complain if pandemic like restrictive laws to our society happened permanently after the pandemic (as long as those restrictive laws have nothing to do with pandemics or health)
Since early Februrary 2022 I believe that Nancy Pelosi's face covering mandate for the House of Reps should be stopped and no one in the house of reps should be requried to cover their faces
I support Mike Braun's amendment to the Prevent Pandemics Act.
I am between being more than pitifully, cautiously somewhat supportive of Dr Oz's views on the pandemic.
I do appreciate Ron Johnson's pandemic hearing early in the year on the pandemic to give another point of view.
I am between extremely pitiful and being empathetic with Ben Shapiro and Andrea Lynn's non extreme offensive views on the pandemic politics
In a hypothetical universe where teleportation existed and where most people had teleport machines, in that hypothetical world, I believe that most people from the US, Canada, Oceania, Australia, Europe, Asia, Africa, South America etc should have teleported to countries on other planets in other galaxies that have intelligent life beings on them in 2020 and 2021. I also believe in that hypothetical universe that when those people from our planet got to those other planets in other galaxies, they should not have social distanced ever, they should not have covered their face ever, they should not have told people on those other planets in other galaxies anything about our pandemic ever, and they should not have isolated themselves ever (but if they went back to Earth they should have followed our pandemic restrictions and pandemic laws to the tee). I am talking hypothetically. No countries on other planets in other galaxies would have pandemic laws or pandemic restrictions since all aliens on other planets would be immune to covid (since aliens on other planets aren't humans and have different biology than humans)
I am support the the Canadian trucker protest but even if I didn’t I still would be against Justin Trudeau using the emergency act on protestors. Even if I didn’t support the truckers, I still would be against his government going after bank accounts of protestors and supporters and similar underhanded things. However, I don't believe he is a dictator, but his actions do make me believe he is almot in the realm of being Authoartarian.Justin Trudeau was wrong to smear the Canadian freedom convoy protestors as bigots
VLADIMIR PUTIN DID NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CANADIAN TRUCKER PROTEST AND ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS misguided
I believe in Reincarnation. I don't believe if evil people from evil empires (like the Babylon Empire) were reincarnated ,they should be hated for the evil that they did in their past lives as part of those evil empires. I seriously pity people who believe that such reincarnated people should be judged and hated in this life for the evil they did in their past lives. I always say the best way to deal with such reincarnated people who did evil in their past lives is to give them WP:ROPE while also killing them with kindness.
There is an afterlife after people die and most scientists agree or say they don't know
Psychology
Psycho Analysis is a real science and anyone who says otherwise is a fake scientist.
etc
I support advances in preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). I support sequencing and mapping of the human genome. I support these things as a way to eliminate disease, make humans live longer, have humans become more intelligent and better adjustment to the conditions of society
Misc
I somewhat appreciate the motives for Donald Trump's Garden of American Heroes idea since I feel it would have made up for the statues that were destroyed or taken down (to avoid being destroyed) in 2020 etc and I approve of most of the names on that statue list. But I am strongly against The National Garden of American Heroes being created. The federal government (including our Presidents) should not tell us who our historical heroes should be and should not force these names upon us. Nor should they create a garden to house statues to honor a select group of people when there are billions of American heroes who can never and will never get a bust in those gardens.
Who decides who is great? What right does our government have to dictate to us who was 'worthy' enough to get a statue? This is the US, not CCP China. Even if there are votes by citizens or private citizen historians to decide those things, it still bad due to the whole concept of a garden for American 'Heroes'
LA Times was wrong to tell people not to consume so much in order to 'stop' the Supply chain woes. People should reject the LA Times tone deaf and WRONG, far left advice and demand that the LA Times apologize for their stupid suggestion
The Washington Post's dont-rant-about-short-staffed-stores-supply-chain-woes-try-lower-expectations/ article was a hot mess , fake news and trash , far left extremist nonsense.
I am against seat belt laws for front seat and back seat passengers 15 and above. I prefer drivers who aren't wearing seat belts who get in accidents get penalized by their insurers not the police
I am fine with red light cameras being removed. The less government spying, the better.
I am for primary seat belt laws for all passengers in the front and back seats under 15
I am sort of a Neo Luddite
I want video games to be as hard now as they were in the 1980s and 1990s (ie cheap level design, not telling the player where to go, unfair gameplay etc, ie Nintendo Hard).I tend to be against gambling being legal and I generally don't believe that people should gamble Gambling is a sin
If even one person dies, it is maximumly bad in my mind so with each subsequent death after that first death (assuming it is a tragedy and related), I individually view each of those subsequent deaths like I viewed the first death in that tragedy.
Culture
Our issue is our whole celebrity culture and fandom culture (which includes the overreaction, rubber necking and explotation of every celebrities death via social media) .
This culture breeds obsessed people to seek out their 15 minutes of fame with their celebrity that they idolize. In particular, with social media and the internet many of the biggest fans are happily called 'Stans' for their favorite idols. Social media allows them to 'keep track' of their favorite idols 24/7/365 which includes easier interaction with them. Moreover, Youtube and Twitter fuels explotation of people who wouldn't be famous if not for Youtube and Twitter
If I sound too conservative on some issues, its somewhat because being far right is counter cultural and its more fun to be counter cultural (albeit only on a few issues) than being cultural (see Hippies in 1960s for more).
