Meanwhile in america...
Liberals are idealists. Doesn't matter if an idea works or kills millions. As long as it sounds poetic and righteous then they really dont care if it is effective.
Conservatives are quite the opposite. They care more about the end results than how good it sounds on paper. Their problem however is a complete inability to understand the data or interpret it objectively. No matter what the data actually says in their mind it always agrees with them.
@freemo I don't consider myself a liberal nor a conservative. I'm just a simple nationalist
@Saederup92 Generally nationalist is used to mean something quite horrible. Something akin to fascist. I presume that is not the way you mean it however.
@freemo @Saederup92 I sit quite gladly Center-Left. I like what I consider to be the common sense coming from that particular area in my local politics.
@Surasanji If the left-right spectrum were a numberline with far left being -10 and the far right being +10 then I would fall exactly at the square root of -1.
@freemo @Surasanji That's fine too. As long as mutual respect can exist, I see nothing wrong with leaning in different directions
@Saederup92 I think both the right and the left make valid points. I also find that since neither the right nor the left address the valid points of the other side neither is capable of coming up with reasonable solutions that address all the concerns.
@freemo @Saederup92 That is often why I sit fairly in the middle, albeit slightly to the left. I can hear both sides, and agree with points on each side.
But, for now, I have to live with a very conservative government who is ABSOLUTELY screwing the pooch. The far left would also be screwing said pooch. Poor pooch. :(
@freemo @Surasanji That's why it baffels me how the US only has two major political parties
@Saederup92 The USA is a model of example of my concerns and the reason i have developed the stance I have.
In the end the truth is I have dealt with many very traumatic life long patterns that directly result from the insanity of the left and the right.
Which is why i have a house in the netherlands now and minimize my contact with the USA.
