I’m guessing you’re a quality example of the kind of conservative I was talking about re: MSM. If I have you pegged wrong, please correct me. I’d honestly be happy to hear you describe yourself. It’s possible I have the wrong perception. But I’m not sure you ever answered the question. Are you vaxxed?

So I basically paraphrase George Carlin in regards to the media and corporate power structure and somehow that makes me the kind of modern conservative you were talking about? This is actually a quality example of your desperate need to categorize people.

I know Covid vaccination is a senseless political football, but what does my vaccination status have to do with anything, other than if I said I was unvaccinated you could eagerly nod your head and congratulate yourself for your own confirmation bias?

Unfortunately, I have bad news for your pigeonholing process. I am fully vaccinated. I never answered when you asked multiple times earlier because I’ve said it here before (so the answer was already available to you if you cared to look) and also because it was fun to watch someone formulate an opinion in real time based on preconceived hunches. (which were incorrect).

It’s not easy to categorize me the way you want to categorize me. I’m basically the opposite of you. I don’t have a side. I’m not an ideologue. I don’t play identity politics because I enjoy forming my own thoughts around individual issues. My viewpoints will continue to evolve as I learn. I don’t lump anyone who doesn’t agree with me on a particular topic onto the “other team”.

I shared this on OG HQ so it’s been a while ago now, but I took a quiz that helps illustrate where the quiz taker lines up on the political spectrum. The results showed that I leaned anarcho-communist. Which, to quote Marcellus Wallace, is “Pretty fucking far” from modern conservative. I just don’t think humans have evolved to the point where we could make it work in actual practice.

I’m also intrigued by Rob living like Diogenes. He’s ready for The Great Reset.

What's a little violent insurrection among friends, right?

So I guess what happened at the Boston Tea Party shouldn’t have happened, amirite?! Just bow down and take it like a man!

Lol

Not sure I “have a team” either. And believe me, my “team” isn’t the Clintons or Joe Biden. Although, they’re less damaging than your peripherals.

It’s quite possible we have much more in common than you think. I’m largely in line with the Libertarian platform on individual and social issues. It’s the economic side I have a huge problem with. Imagine being gullible enough to think corporations and billionaires will act morally and responsibly because it behooves them lol.

And people like to say that liberals live in a fantasy world.

I too took the quiz and Tempo might be very surprised because of his confirmation bias. He’s more than welcome to go back and see where I stand politically.

I took the political compass quiz https://www.politicalcompass.org/test and answered honestly and this was my result

but I guess when the overton window keeps shifting left for most of the lefty lunatics on the twitterverse or wherever else I could be seen as a Trumper or right wing wacko or something with my marginally freedom based takes

Tempo, while Custard has been vaccinated, has he gotten the booster? We need to know what the anarcho-commie is up to!

“Think of how it all started: America was founded by slave owners who informed us, "All men are created equal." All "men," except Indians, niggers, and women. Remember, the founders were a small group of unelected, white, male, land-holding slave owners who also, by the way, suggested their class be the only one allowed to vote. To my mind, that is what's known as being stunningly--and embarrassingly--full of shit.”

It was not me, but I trusted Walter Cronkite if that makes a difference.

I can’t seem to find the thread this quiz was in. Could you please assist in finding my results. Thanks

I didn't think this forum had a block function but the way Tempo keeps replying to himself it's like watching some facebook post where you've blocked a bunch of people and can only see one person's replies
