"'A Good Tory'? What a chuffing oxymoron. Uncivilized Thatcherite savages, the whole lot of them. The only 'Good Tory' is one that's been forced out of politics.

They know they'll all share the blame."

"Other viewpoints are to be tolerated, yes, that is the essence of liberalism. Except when it come to politics. Why should we tolerate the existence of political positions and ideals which we see as abhorrent?

One of the core purposes of a political party is to strive to implement its policies."

I'd be lying if I said I was a consistent individual with a firm set philosophical outlook on life, society, and politics. In fact, I find it incredibly foolish to submit one's own self under a horrid 'ism' when in reality they follow their own moral and ethical code of conduct. Of course, bless the person who comes up with an 'ism' on my philosophy.

Whatever works best is best, for me at least. The end can be achieved by any means, so, why not?

As for the name, please do be fucking creative with it. It's slanderous to bore an already ridiculously serious person like me.

"There are restrictions to movement through time using magic. First, you must leave your own body behind to do it. Then there must be a version of yourself waiting at the destination. Upon arrival, you must move forward as per the laws of time; and you cannot rewrite events that are destined to happen in a Pre-Destination Paradox." - Fiamma of the Right in his studies about time travel using magic

"Time travel is indeed possible. But, I must warn you that it is one of the most risky use of magic ever. It's like traveling to another universe, but your actions affect other universes and thus change a segment of the multiverse. Other universes will die, however every choice and action you do 'kills' other universes too. It is the most ultimate expression of magic that changes the fabric of both time and space. Usually you just create loop in your life and that's it, but time helps you go through the loop and you are finished. But much worse things could happen. I advise against time travel. "

Blah blah, progressives suck and are whiny bitches, blah blah, Tories are the spawn of hell, blah blah, stupid fucking 'isms' and tribalistic morality based on echo chambers and confirmation bias in the end. Openness is not a trait of liberals, in fact, liberals seem to indulge in confirmation bias and echo chambers as much as conservatives. Libertarians are just lost and confused.

Openness to challenge and debate and consensus is a higher form of morality and ethical decision making, and is highly preferred over petty tribal incohessiveness.
