Where do you sit it the political spectrum? bonus for why?

[schoolgirlskirtcaley]

I am left (Democrat/Liberal), but not Woke.
And because I was raised that way. And it aligns with my societal beliefs.

Woke

Left (Democrat/Liberal)

Center

Right (Republican/Conservative)

Far Right (Conspiracy Theorist & Majorie Taylor Green)

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

My political party is left-side (Ex Communist Party) but I've been often been called a rightist politician and a "Fasciocommunist" because of my views and actions against immigration and promotion of local campanilism and criticism of globalism.

Anarchist; because there is no getting away from the argument that the initiation of force is wrong. Taxation is theft, theft is force.

Therefore the only acceptable system/s are those which are entered into voluntarily with informed consent.

center left because my ideas are more left leaning but not woke or super left and i also have some right wing views on some stuff

[Anonymous]

i'm definitely economically left but i guess my social beliefs are a mix

[HighValue]

If I had a pair of binoculars and looked to my left, I would see the listed "far right." That's how far right I am after these last few years.

I would support/vote for a death penalty for anyone that still voted Democrat in the 2022 election and beyond.

[FunkyMonkee]

At the moment, I HAVE to go right because the left are absobuttfuckinglutely bat shit CRAZY!!! Generally, I couldn't give a shit what side they're on, as long as they are the right person for the job.
There ARE crooks on BOTH sides of the fence, the trick is knowing and voting for who ISN'T.

[VikingWarLord]

Conspiracy Theorists don't belong with Marjorie Taylor, we have a conspiracy theory about her (and Tucker Carlson) too.

They're all controlled opposition.

[exitseven]

I used to be a moderate independent but the democrats have gotten so crazy I had to pick a side and I am a Republican, fiscal conservative.

Ok, what's your definition of "woke", and how does it differ from liberal/left?

[schoolgirlskirtcaley]

Woke: your over the top on like BLM, you want all weapons banned, etc..
Liberal/Democrat: you want social change but you’re not all cancel culture.

Does that make any sense?

[loveslongnails]

Some of it makes sense, but not your definition of woke. That's not what woke means. Woke doesn't mean you're "over the top" - that's extremism or radicalism. Woke simply means you're aware of social injustices, some of which may be systemic and or racist, and you want to make changes to eliminate those injustices. An "all weapons banned" view is a very extremist point of view, and the vast majority of left-leaning people don't advocate for that at all.

As to BLM, that's not over the top either. 80-90% of the BLM protests were peaceful, but they didn't coverage, only the 10-20% where riots broke out got coverage. There is also evidence that the riotous events were sparked by right-wing groups who planted their people in the crowd. The obvious reason was to give them a bad name, and it worked. Some say it was the Q Anon element, but the peaceful protests weren't over the top.

Right now, "cancel culture's home" is with the Republican Party, no matter how they rage against it. They're in the midst of canceling books, re-writing history and denying that there's any sort of racism still present in the USA, all while they slowly re-enact Jim Crow laws.

So call me "woke", but by the definition I gave you above.

[BigDog1989]

How are you left/liberal, but not woke. That makes no sense.

I'm on the side of sane people

[msc545]

I ama leftist but not woke. I find the values and practices of those who are woke to be repugnant.

[riverrat3]

I was center, but got pushed left by Reagan, I keep getting pushed left

[llorando]

Left (progressive).

[Ptrmbrs88]

In the middle, dead centre.
