If you know about politics and you read what some politicians say it will scare you. It might be better to be blissfully ignorant.

As I have posted before , my ideology is rather extreme left , by American standards. I identify with eurocommunism , or at the very least I support liberal socialism.

I'm a Socialist/Progressive & am a very strong supporter of Bernie Sanders because he's a champion of Social Security & other programs that the poor & disabled(like me & my girlfriend & her family) are forced to rely upon.

If you would like to discuss politics and this upcoming election come down to PPR where we can debate more freely, just try to seperate emotion from it and remember that none of our opinions actually matter in the grand scheme of things so there is not point getting worked up over somebody disagreeing with you. PPR kind of has this reputation as being rough and tumble but there are really only a few posters that ruin it for everybody else so the more calm rational people that we have posting the better.

I would not describe myself with any political label other than being anti-establishment because the reality in the United States is that there is no real discernible difference whether or not some beltway Democrat or Republican is in office.

edit: awww crap wth I didn't know this thread was 9 years old lol

Also, people are welcome to take "The World's Smallest Political Quiz" (30 seconds) linked in the first post in this thread:

viewtopic.php?t=303548

And then add yourself to the poll at the top of that page (with the choices based on the results of that little quiz).
