Red Tory/Progressive Conservative/One Nation Conservative, whichever sounds the most awe-inspiring and sexy. Basically sums up to a similar set of ideas.
Economic Left/Right: 0.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.82

Conservative Morality wrote:By accepting yourself and who you are. Accept violence. Accept aggression. Accept dominance. Not as a man, but as a human. Accept conflict, and find a place for it in life. Neither deny nor revel in it. Revel in one thing and one thing only: humanity. What higher goal is there, after all? Embrace who you are, what you are, and what you can be. Throw off the shackles of shame, refuse self-loathing, refuse misandry, refuse misogyny, refuse misanthropy, instead, love what you are. Love mankind, love man and woman, and love yourself.

I tend to vote left-wing. When I hear people going, "Oh hell, I would never vote for them. They'll destroy the economy!" that's who I vote for.

A New Nobility of Blood, Soil, and Soul
"We said to ourselves that to be 'national' means above everything to act with a boundless and all-embracing love for the people and, if necessary, even to die for it. And similarly to be 'social' means so to build up the state and the community of the people that every individual acts in the interest of the community of the people and must be to such an extent convinced of the goodness, of the honorable straightforwardness of this community of the people as to be ready to die for it. The Aryan regards work as the foundation for the maintenance of the community of people amongst it members."

Restored. There are so-called Nazi political entities out there that debase, or ridicule true national socialism. I came across the National Socialist Party of Canada while online earlier and my first reaction was :palm:

Yep. As well as a marxist-leninist and communist party. A former joke party called the rhino party, whose leader changed his name to Sa Tan after parties were required to have 50 registered members running to be counted as a party and then brought it to court. (Satan versus Her Majesty the Queen as the name of the case was what he wanted) There is a less funny new version of that party as well. And a christian heritage party.

I knew about our Communist parties but I never knew we had 'joke' parties. That reminds me of a school project I had to do once. I made a North Korea style Stalinist party and my friend made a party that had a weed leaf and a gun on the poster. I think I will stick with the conservatives lol.

Is there even such a thing as an anarchist political party? Isn't that a little contradictory?

Well there is still a homogeneous white population up here in this Germanic colony so of course there are those that are proud of the race first policies of the Party. In any case; we shouldn't tie up this forum thread; so anyone TG me or someone can start a thread on Nationalism.

You could call me a liberal I suppose. You sure as hell can't call me a conservative, moderates are generally more on the right since conservatives are so right, I'm not a communist, I'm not a anarchist, and I scoff at the idea of me being for a theocracy.

So yeah, liberal if you want a label.

I suppose it could work on the basis of immediatly dismantling the state if they get in. It would be Anarchist, but not neccesarily going to achieve their intent immediatly.

The green party of the UK for instance would most likely be unable to turn Britain into a completely renewable, self sufficient, social democratic island state, but their goals and intent work towards this goal.

Would an Anarchist party be popular however? Hell no. Even Platformism, which is as close as mainstream anarchism gets to a loose extent is unpopular.



Personally I see myself as a member of the libertarian left. I dont count myself as an Anarchist (proposing more a limited and alternate state system) but I answered Anarchist on their due to anarchist philosophers influencing my own political position.

Contrary to the propaganda, we live in probably the least materialistic culture in history. If we cared about the things of the world, we would treat them quite differently. We would be concerned with their materiality. We would be interested in their beginnings and their ends, before and after they left our grasp.

Independent, my views range from some of each side. While left-wing I share some opinions with right wing as well, and centrist. So basically, I take a little of everything in effort to create my own perfect side, cause my corner is far superior to yours!!! lol
