Libertarianism then

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 5 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Liberalism for racists?

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

AND conservatives who like weed and birth control and whatnot.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 1 points 10 months ago

The name for that is liberal.

Racists? Omg. 😱 that's literally most parties in the US. Democrats have a racist history just the same. Welcome to America, all parties are racist in one way or other, because this country breeds extremism and corruption. Even liberalism has perpetuated systemic racism on several occasions despite trying to dismantle it. All the parties in the US are guilty. Corruption runs deep, and corruption is corpo profit margins.

Much closer, yes. Have you heard of hackliberty & dividebyzero?

Sorry to say if your views are closer to true libertarianism and the principles favored by those links you would likely be considered distinctly leftist. Dbzer0 is a primarily anarchist community, on the far-left.

Not really. I have views distinctly on both left and right. And hacklibery is actually a lot more right leaning...

[–] tocopherol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You have views that are independently more left or right, but say if your views were a political party, it would be placed on a spectrum from left to right based on how many of these positions fall on either side of the spectrum. Typically the views that are seen as far left and far right are mutually exclusive, like authoritarian centralized governance versus decentralization, increased immigration vs decreased, but it's true there is a lot of nuance lost when things are viewed that way.

Exactly. In truth, I hate ALL sides, ALL PARTIES , just for differing reasons. I vote for the shit I vote for, no political party has the power to sway me to be a blind follower that just accepts whatever bullshit they do. I'm very openly critical of all political parties in general, and don't really have anything good to say about any of them. They've all done shit I greatly disagree with.
