Jubus. I hope this is a phase.

A radical centrist? How does that work?

Anytime he comes up with an original idea he punches himself in the face.

I have become more racist, and libertarian.

That statement contradicts with what you've written in your signature.

Contradictions? On NSG? Impossible.

I've thought about the merits of libertarianism and authoritarianism and come to the conclusion that Dictatorship Bad.

(Left libertarian, not right.)

I went from being a vaguely socialist social democrat to a mutualist anarchist and later a post-civ anarchist (tl;dr a radical environmentalist philosophy fusing both "civilized" and "primitive" elements). This wasn't all just from NSG though.

American liberals are really far from being "hard leftists".

How do you combine libertarianism with Stalin?

My stance hasn't changed. NS just provides me more and more evidence for how deeply the lefties are really detached from reality .

Sir, do you know what the term "left-wing" means when pertaining to politics?

1, Has your politics changed since being a member of the NS community?
Yes, very much.
2, If so were other NSers involved?
A bit. I was influenced by my Socialist friend.
3, what were the changes?
Up until I joined NS, I was completely conservative. I thought Bush was okay and that Stephen Harper is the best prime minister evar (I'm Canadian)! Looking back on that, I can't believe how stupid I was. After doing a bit of research and actually investing time in politics, I learned that Bush was stupid, Harper sucks and Trotsky was the world's biggest hope for the future. I thought Stalin was great because he won WWII, but now I actually know who he is and what he's done. I've changed from Far-Right to Left over the course of a year. Probably because I knew pretty much nothing about politics back then and never even cared. TRUDEAU 2015, SOCIALISM FOR THE FUTURE!
