The left wing vs right wing debate. Opinion's that are greatly differentiated. The right says the left is dumb, and the left says the right is dumb! XD. But both are valid, and both do matter based upon were you live, or how you were raised, or simply how you grew up and began to understand the world.

 

Now for myself, I consider myself conservative (right winged). While my opinion's do vary when it comes to different political topic's, I'm generally center-right. I do believe that lower taxes benifit the economy, and that spending should be kept under control. Immigration is ok, as long as they're positively affecting our economy, and integrate well into society. Now I won't go into any further detail, as well most of us know what right winged and left winged policies are like. Now I do have exceptions, mainly I don't believe invading the middle east wasn't (lol, I said was originally) a good idea, as its caused a massive destabilization within the region.  Also gay marriage is something I totally accept. And abortion, well only if the women is in a medical emergency. Otherwise, killing a baby for your mistake seems cruel. I do have others, but I won't go any further into them.

 

So what side are you on? Left wing, or right wing? Also, do you generally have certain opinion's opposite to that of most of your political beliefs? I'll have a poll, and post below. I like to see discussion, lazyness just makes me feel sad.  

 

Edit: I want to note I'm Canadian. Republican's are generally to far to the right, and focus far to much on christan value's and stuff like that...



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

im  neither. but if i had to choose wich is most accurate to the politics i agree with. I have to say right winged



I'm a liberal centrist as far as UK politics go. By American standards I'm left, but in the current UK situation I would be considered right wing... So I'm neither, I'm just common sense.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

Based on my personal views of politics, I'm probably right winged.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I did the test and my dot was a few spaces away from Gandhi. Whatever he is that what I am.

I'm center-left by Norwegian standards.



I'm neither. Also a non voter, for about the past 11-12 years. Nothing in this country will change, until we quit letting people serve so long in congress.

I am non-voter. The way the political system works is that realistically no matter what happens, nothing big will ever change. Therefore I don't need to know anything and don't need to waste time on worrying about things that aren't going to happen anyway.

 

Ahhh, the typical "the system doesn't work" guy. Wether something big will change or not depends a lot on what you mean by "big". In addition, if a lot of smaller things change, over time that will equate to big changes.

No, the system works.

 

Because it's supposed to make sure nothing changes drastically, right?

Yes, because people don't like change.

It already started in elementary school that teachers said that "he who sleeps in a democratic state will wake up in a dictatorship". Back then I believed there is some merit to it, but it's obvious that's not going to happen. So there's no need for the average citizen to bother, hence why the percentage of non-voters increases with every election.

 

Well you can't just give up! Humanity has worked 100s of years to get to were it is now! Maybe you've never witnessed it in your life (and I haven't either), but change has come to many places before, and it will come again.
