This is why I specify that I may lean towards the center compared to many of my peers (I live in LA), but I am still DEFINITELY LEFT OF CENTER

no that’s fair. i’m generally against capital punishment but i do think it should be used in VERY specific circumstances

I think capital punishment is acceptable and even necessary sometimes for a functioning state with sovereignty. Not even in the “I’m against it for everything except the worst of serial killers” way, more in the “if someone powerful attempts a coup on your government and fails, yeah man they kinda gotta go, nothing left to be done about it”

They don’t care. They don’t believe in democracy, they believe they are/know better than everyone else and they should get to decide for other people what is best

Like, for example, if you have a guy who was in power, and then got voted out of power, and then incited a riot in the halls of the legislature in an attempt to impede the peaceful transfer of power. That person’s gotta be made an example of, especially if it’s the first time in the history of your regime that anyone’s tried that.

Yeah, sure. It’s not the people spamming “TND” and saying they don’t gaf if Trump is guilty. It’s the centrist critiques.

I’m not saying Trump isn’t a problem, he obviously is, and I would cheer for the person that locks him up, but he is a product of an utterly crumbled political system

I do think trans athletes are a problem. I don’t align with many issues left or right. Some may say I’m being picky but each side has some right to it and I can admit that.

I am on the left I’m just mature enough to realize both sides have qualities I believe in. If you can’t agree on anything or be respectful of someone’s beliefs you are a problem I wish not to associate with.

My economic views lean left, but I’m more conservative on certain social issues. Political beliefs aren’t a package deal, and the left isn’t a monolith. Disagreeing with some left-wing positions doesn’t automatically make me a conservative. Address my actual beliefs instead of gatekeeping political labels.
