Describe Your Political Ideology

[Prythaine]

The main reason for me setting this thread up is that most people, while identifying with an ideology, have ideas and views and principles that stand out with said political standpoint.

I myself identify as a Communist. I've been told I'm actually closer to being a Socialist, but just tell people I'm a Communist because it tends to get a stronger reaction out of them.

I identify as more of an authoritarian Communist. (Take a look at my "Political Compass;" http://kcammy.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d4hs6pi) But that's probably because I'm at the other end of the scale from Anarcho-Communists. That means more power to the state in economic affairs. However, I'm completely against the state having any power in anyone's private affairs. There are some things the state should just not be allowed to interfere with.

I also, strangely, have some rather... Imperialist views... Figure that one out!

[Ifreann]

I'm a godless, baby eating liberal, the kind conservative parents say is hiding under their children's beds waiting to abort their guns and take their babies.

[Conserative Morality]

I'm a Statist. I identify most closely with Kemalism, but with a turn of the 19th/20th-century American progressive bent.

[The Greater Aryan Race]

Fascist minus all that racialism and anti-Semitism so I guess my brand of Fascism is more aligned with Italian Fascism and Spanish Fascism.

[The Murry]

After watching the movie The Iron Lady I must say my politicle stance can be said in one word Thatcherism

[Bokaya]

Minarchist Turkish Nationalist

[Meowfoundland]

It's doing what is right for your fellow man, and not purposely hurting others.

[Tubbsalot]

Erm, I determine my views on any given issue based on what the evidence suggests the most productive move would be, with an eye to utilitarian maximisation of happiness tempered by concerns for fairness and other left-wing bullshit like that.

[EnragedMaldivians]

I don't tend to to hold labels for very long; the only view I've held with any consistency is that to minimize the aggregate suffering of all persons is of paramount importance; though I discard certain categories of people from this calculus.

[Teddy Bear Republic]

Bit odd. I take each issues individually. Socially, I tend to lean to the (rather) extreme left, whilst economically I'm more centre - leftish. For example, I support capitalism, but not for uber-large corporations and I'm a Nordic modelist, although not quite.
If any of that makes sense.

[1000 Cats]

Libertarian nearly (?) to the point of anarchism. I support democratic socialism in the real world, but I believe that the ideal is to return to more tribal lifestyles. I'll offhandedly call myself anarcho-primitivist, or agrarianist, or communalist.

[Forster Keys]

Collectivism. Anti materialism. Love of nature. Being nice to people.

[Prythaine]

I also, strangely,

not really

How so? How many Communists do you know of that are also Imperialist?

[Immoren]

Social democrat and/or left-libertarian.

[Vilayet]

Utilitarian Kemalist, center-left leaning on economic issues, and left-leaning on most, but not all, other issues.

Given that she never seemed popular it is amazing how she just kept going.

I'd describe myself is centre-left.

[Genivaria]

I'm a democratic socialist and World Federalist.

[San Marique]

I define myself as a Social-Capitalist. One who believes in competition and private enterprise, but also believes that the government should hold strong regulations over these companies to ensure workers are not exploited, everybody receives fair treatment, etc. I also support a healthcare option, where there is both a private, and public option for healthcare. With regards to conflicts, unless a nation is directly attacking us, or threatening us (and we have solid evidence they'd follow through with the threat), then I do not believe we have any right to stick our dicks in every other nation like they're just a bunch of fleshlights.

Falklands plus the Winter of Discontent from what I know. Which isn't much mind.

Both around her first term. Then again female PMs who are elected seem to hang around for a bit.

Why they made a film in honour of someone who destroyed the industrial base of Britain, created some of the highest unemployment, wealth disparity and child poverty in the UK is beyond me.

Anyway I would like to call myself non-political. But I do love a good economics debate

[Greater Mackonia]

The evil freedom hating atheist republican communist

There's nothing more inspiring than the life and times of the woman who founded Britain's underclass!
