#GG political leanings Leader 08/14/15 (Fri) 16:38:29 843d0e No. 248860
Hi, I was wondering about #GG's political leanings. I know SJWs say it's far-right and I've seen a survey produced by a different GG board that says it's a mix with most being center-left. I thought I'd ask and see what the mood is here. So if you don't mind, would you tell me your:
Political leanings:
>eg left, right, centre-right, far-left, etc
Political ideology:
>eg socialist, capitalist, etc
Country and fave political party there:
Fave US 2016 candidate:
Personal labels:
>eg feminist/anti-feminist, SJW/anti-SJW, MRA/anti-MRA, masculinist, whatever you call yourself
Main interest in GG:
>why you're a GGer, eg video games, politics, journalistic integrity, anti-SJWism, anti-feminism, egalitarianism, etc
Other activism:
>eg any protests you go to, other causes you support, etc
Fave charitable causes:
>the kinds of charities you support, if any
I don't want to ask anything identifying, only your views. I only ask location so that I can understand your answer to which of your local parties you prefer.
I'm posting here since this is the biggest GG board, but if one of the others would be a better place to ask, tell me so. I don't know the difference between them all.
My personal views are sympathetic to #GG, but I've never got involved at all.

No political leanings. No ideology. Everyone may participate. Ideology enters only for holding ideologues to their own standards calling out hypocrisy, whatever their ideology is.
Some say we are libertarian, but this only speaks truth about the majority of us, not all of us. There is no hard definition of anything related to GG.

>Do you honestly believe that with an equal availability of opportunity people will all reach the same end point?
No, that's be authoritarian. Everyone should achieve what they are capable of, nothing more. The issue is that I don't believe there is an inherent difference in terms of value between people. So law should be the same to everyone, hence why I'm pro gay marriage and some other things that usually aren't traditional. But I'm also against stuff that is deemed anti-liberal, like being firmly anti-affirmative action. Probably egalitarianism wasn't a good definition, but I don't know what else could define the position.

as a whole, GG spread left-right, while it was leaning left, it's still a wide spread, and if we re-did the survey, we might have shifted to the center.
on the other axis though, we are libertarian, in fact what you could call a radical GG would be extreme libertarian, anarchy-esque

Well, in some aspects I lean towards the left, like if a state fails to take care of their citizens it is a failure as a state.
In some other aspects I lean to the right, like some sort of free market and maybe hard punishment for criminals.
But also I'm up for social rights both for women and lesbians and let people express themselves.
But also I'm against all kind of 'social justice' laws that are only an excuse to privilege women over men or minor classes over the common tax payer.
But also I believe in having tax depending of your wealthy because, if the jews and the old testament brought ONE good thing was the sense of retribution. If you do good, you feel like paying back the society who gave you success.
But also I believe in lower sale taxes so people can consume and make the economy flow.
But also I'm up for animal rights, or at least the right of not being killed in a humilliant and painful way or if it isn't for food and essential resources or general safety(Spaniard here).
But also I hate all those PETA cunts or idiots that thing that humans can survive just with roots or artificial crappy meat imitation that probably has much worse stuff than the meat is supposed to have.
So, basically, I don't know where I am in the political spectrum.

Political leanings:
Political compass put me in the far bottom-left corner of left-wing libertarianism.
Political ideology:
Egalitarian in pretty much the meaning defined by >>248940 . I also believe that society should provide a reasonably comfortable floor to standard of living for everyone. Put a lower bound on it, not an upper bound. I distrust both government and corporations. Anarchy is no solution. Free market arguments are certainly elegant and seductive, but I strongly doubt things would work out well.

Firmly libertarian with a lowercase 'l', left-leaning on the left/right axis in the States , which makes me a right-winger in Europe. People should be able to do whatever so long as they're not hurting anyone else. None of this "we know what's best for you" bullshit.
>Political ideology
Okay, you say political ideology but your examples are about economic policy specifically. Economically I believe in regulated capitalism. Free market works best when not interfered with, but you gotta have something to stop a successful company from funding a private army and using it to make their success permanent, regardless of the quality/price of their products going forward, or from colluding with other companies to keep innovations off the market and preserve the status quo, or etc. etc. Companies can mess with the free market too.

New England here.
Typically left on economic issues and libertarian on social issues. I guess I would say I prefer Democrats to Republicans, but I've voted for both. I refuse to join either party.
I am a GGer because my career is in the media. I'm probably older than most people here…
I like Bernie Sanders and Rand Paul the most of the 2016 candidates. I was impressed with John Kasich's debate performance, though he is clearly the Jon Huntsman of the 2016 cycle (i.e. doomed to failure for making too much sense). I liked Bill Clinton, not a fan of Hillary. Would much prefer Gillibrand, Warren, or Snowe to be the first female president. Obama has been an extremely mixed bag.
Trusting politicians and turning them into "friendly" media figureheads is not a good thing to do.
I've never been to a protest, think the ones in the past 10-20 years have been pretty stupid tbh. Occupy had some decent points but was wildly inconsistent and quickly was co-opted by far-left radicals (progressive stack, really? Really?). I've written to my elected officials. I've volunteered for a major humanitarian aid organization and emailed their head of comms, about why they advertised on Gawker (did not get a response).
I don't think right/left politics should be brought too heavily into #GamerGate. We have voices that speak to the main tenets of the movement from all sides: progressive writer Jonathan Chait has denounced the left's march toward hyper-political-correctness; Christina Sommers is a conservative registered Democrat and feminist; Milo Y. is gay conservative. Adam Baldwin is very religious.

I consider myself pretty firmly a Progressive and I'm not going to let these SJW motherfuckers change my mind just because they give us all a bad name. I agree with most of the principles of the Green party and Democrats; the few things I've really never been fond of are glorified racism like affirmative action though.
I'd love to see where Bernie Sanders can takes us but I will, very grudgingly, force myself to vote for Hilary if she wins the primary.

I've donated to the ASPCA in the past and once put together a proposal for the city I was living in to switch to a no-kill shelter, and they liked the proposal so much they built a brand new shelter (I outlined how it would both be good PR and save the city money.) Despite myself not being religious, I tend to side with religious people in arguments and have had numerous debates on their behalf on various issues, and when I say defending religion I don't just mean the Christian ones. I became a big advocate of anonymous internet culture after discovering halfchan because before that, I was kind of… notorious on the forums I posted, and I didn't enjoy that. Any forum I create an account on, I immediately become a polarizing figure on. I'm good at arguing and don't care about cliques, so eventually I'd rub some group the wrong way, upset some mod, and get a following I absolutely did not want. People calling me in to help them argue their side, people following me to completely neutral posts to pick them apart to initiate debates. Every single time it was exhausting. Being anonymous allows me to engage in debates without being followed around by a reputation.

I think the left/right false dichotomy is something that should have been dropped two hundred years ago, but you could call me libertarian left.
>Political ideology
Anarchism. I don't adhere to any specific economic camp and believe the proper system is whatever people choose is best for themselves. I do believe access to things necessary for survival (food, water, shelter, medicine etc) are inalienable human rights and that such resources must not be withheld by any for-profit interest, unless the resource is available in large enough surplus that everyone already has as much as they need. The sad truth is that we'll probably have to stick with markets for a while, at least to a certain degree, until absolute post-scarcity can be achieved.

I had always believed myself to be center right wing libertarian, and my liberal acquantances have frequently called me right-wing. Last time I took the quiz, the chart said that I am center left wing libertarian.

>Political leanings:
Overall left-moderate. I believe in a strong social safety net, and am socially very liberal. That said, I'm also a strong supporter of states' rights to govern their own borders, as the laboratories of democracy. In my eyes the two most important roles of the federal government should be protecting our territory and people from other nations from without, and from corporatism from within.
>Political ideology:
I believe capitalism is one of the greatest inventions of mankind, because when people hold a stake in something, whatever it is, they ALWAYS care about it more and work harder for its success. That said, I don't think the free market is a magical, self-regulating system, and self interest does need to be tempered by concern for the public good, which is a proper role for government.
>Country and fave political party there:
United States, both of our parties are owned by the same corporate elites, so it doesn't matter.
>Fave US 2016 candidate:
Trump, because he stands the best chance of burning it all down. No politician who depends on an allowance from the power brokers of this country will ever do anything to upset the stasis we're stuck in.
>Personal labels:
I consider myself an MRA, egalitarian and choice feminist. The feminism my mother taught me was about stopping treating women like children, and starting to treat them like adults capable of making their own decisions. The modern SJW-friendly use of the word "feminism" is insulting to me, regressive and conservative, just like their outlook on race relations. Modern SJWs are literally the same rich white fucks who felt it was their responsibility to save the brown people from themselves during the "white man's burden" days.
>Main interest in GG:
It started out with games media, but for me it's moved on to all media. After seeing the corruption among some, absolute laziness among others, and agenda-pushing among the rest, I've become disillusioned by all journalists everywhere. I grew up thinking our press was different, thinking it was honestly trying to inform us. I've realized over the past year that facts don't matter, it's all about what sells (if we're lucky) or what their bosses WANT to sell (if we're less lucky)
>Other activism:
I'm a big supporter of decriminalizing the personal use of drugs, as I think the war on drugs is one of the primary tools used to sow division between the races in America, and it has disproportionately affected black communities, creating a semi-permanent dependent class, generations growing up without fathers and living off the scraps fed them by the same federal government that locked their fathers up to begin with.
>Fave charitable causes:
Any cause that helps people become independent of government assistance. It's hard to value yourself as an individual when living off charity, and people valuing themselves as individuals is the biggest step down the path of independent thought.

So far, I like John Kasich, but there's no way he'd be able to win a Republican primary. I'm waiting for Biden to enter the race, and will likely vote for him. Hillary doesn't really freak me out as much as some other people on here.

I pretty much lurk this board. I was strongly GG early on, but felt that the movement lost a good chunk of it's power when winter set in. Now I just check in to make sure you guys haven't done anything major since the Intel shit, and pretty much just laugh at SJWs, which lets be honest, is mostly what you guys are here for at this point anyways.
ANYWAYS, the only reason I come here is to laugh at SJWs… And less often, but occasionally, to laugh at people on this board. Ya'll became way more cringy when things started slowing down.

Fave US 2016 candidate: Probably bernie or rand, but I absolutely hate the US and its political medling all around the world.

You may think I'm an atheist but you'd be wrong, I'm a Christian, however there are very few views that I hold that are due to religion. And although The Bible is based mostly on supernatural events it was physically written by natural humans, so anything written in The Bible that is proven wrong by science can be attributed to human error. If science ever proved that God doesn't exist and/or that Jesus wasn't his son then I would stop believing in God and/or Jesus as it would be totally illogical to continue believing. (Yeah, I know, you can't prove a negative. Let's just say "enough evidence" then.)
>Country and fave political party there:
England. I'm against political parties and think they should be abolished in favour of electing cabinet ministers who are experts at their jobs, eg. a doctor or nurse as Health Minister, who swear to do their job based on science, facts and logic rather than following an ideology.

>Fave US 2016 candidate:
Donald Trump. Again, I know he's probably faking it like UKIP might be, but at least he's acting politically incorrect. It does make me wonder what those in power are up to if UKIP and Donald Trump are faking it though. Maybe just testing to see what it takes to get people to finally push back against cultural marxism and if people do actually elect them they might just turn and become like all the other cultural marxist-controlled parties/politicians so that those in power can send the message "You're fucked whoever you vote for, so just OBEY us!"

Economic centrist here- Social leaning middle only because I think all social and societal ills are the cause of crime, under-education and a lack of job security and income. IE: An unhappy idle population is a dangerous and hateful population.
I think that equality occurs when pay rates and costs of living are all made proper and fair- And that having a productive and profitable and healthy nation and work force naturally results in equality naturally.
No one has enough bitterness to conjure up to hate people en masse or oppress others when they know they can have dinner on the table and a comfortable house and not have to worry till they fucking die.
And even if they do carry some sort of dire belief or cudgel against a set group- Who cares? They'll never act on it because no one wants to lose the best jobs of their lives over ignorant shit. IE: See again that the most violent people make fuck all money and live abysmal lives.

Stopping TPP, and anything else that threatens freedom on the internet.

Sanders, followed by Trump. Both are major wrenches in their parties, neither is a corp-shill fuck, and Sanders seems to legitimately give a shit about something other than his own personal power.
>personal labels
Anti-feminist, I guess. Anti-megacorp. Don't worry about these too much, though.
>Main interest in GG
I want to play video games and have a press that I can trust to at least tell me about video games. I want to not be called a raping, misogynistic murderkid for playing video games. Also, this ride has gone into SPJ and the UN, I want to see where it takes us next.
>Other activism
I vote and write to my local representatives when shit's going down. I'm not that involved in real-world protests and shit. Standing outside someone's door with a sign just gives the media a target, you have to play another game entirely.
>Fave charitable causes
I don't donate for the sake of donating unless it's blood. I do community service and volunteer work where possible, mainly with local schools.

Libertarian, I guess. I simply believe that anyone should be allowed to do, like and work whatever they want, as long as there's good rule of law and people are held responsible for their actions.

>Main interest in GG:
I've been playing games since the early 90s, and I'm finally tired of all the lobbying they do against games, blaming them for society's ills (half of which aren't even actually real). I don't want my games censored, I want to buy and like whatever I want with freedom; criticism is fine, just as long as I'm allowed to actually enjoy it without being in fear of not getting a job or landing in jail because it hurts some minority's feelings.
>Other activism:
Not much, other than tell the complacient spic faggots of stuff that's happening and that they should be aware of shit that happens outside of the pueblo.
>Fave charitable causes:
Disaster relief causes.

Nice to see lots of leftists here without being the fucking moderator faggots worthy of a bullet to their head like /leftypol/.
Or /r/fullcommunism, or revleft, or…
Yeah moderators is not a left or right thing, but God damn it you'd think the left would hold itself to higher standards what with it can't hide behind "mu'h property" as an excuse.
More so than property communism will ultimately bury forever the moderator by dissolving all forms of hierarchy and illegitimate authority. The only enforcement under a strict communism is the state and there's hardly any room for the arbitrary and often selective nature of whim for the state. Noam Chomsky brought that up himself.

Black-hatting against the Scientologists during the early days of Project Chanology before the moralfags took over. I used to be pretty active in the /i/ boards. I had high hopes for /baph/, but they've gone inactive like every other /i/ board out there.

a good portion of /leftypol/ is from /r/badphilosophy, one of SRS's satellite subs. most of them are continental "philosophers". they generally dont believe in reason or empiricism or individualism. they hate the enlightenment and they HATE freedom thats why they are crazy fucks
