After spending a few years on NSG, I've become significantly more right-wing and my love for America has kept growing. I've also become slightly more socially conservative, but I'd attribute that to /pol/ rather than NSG.
I have designed a personal theory during my years here: when you're a moderate and spend time in a place filled with extremists, you tend to go in the exact opposite direction. In this case, NSG's pants-on-head far-leftiness turned moderate center-right Hippo into GOD BLESS AMERICA RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT-Hippo.
Fortunately, I've spent time on some far-right discussion boards as well, which had also had the same effect on me. This means that I will never become a "KILL THE NIGGERS AND GAS THE JEWS, HAPPENING TRAIN SAYS CHOO CHOO CHOO"-type authoritarian neonazi.

And I still believed in very libertarian social views. Now I'm way more racialist and I have fascist elements of my ideology.

But it isn't just because of NSG. It's because of news articles and such.

Wait, so when you say right in political freedom, do you mean totalitarian?

Been here for almost 7 months and almost 7k posts, not a social democrat...
It did move me quite a bit to the left though. I'm not sure if that's entirely the doing of NSG though it certainly contributed.

But I have a feeling you don't mean that, and in fact do not know what you're talking about.

When I call American Liberalism rubbish, its not because of ideological differences (even though I disagree with their ideals most of the time) its because Americans twisted the word Liberal into a term to describe a center-left ideology.

Compare your compass to the Justice Party's. Although it doesn't make you one, it' awfully close...
