Are you on the left or on the right?
There was a discussion on another thread about whether Poly was left or right centric. How would you identify your political position if you had to give an either or answer.

What does left and what does right imply politically?
Does that give you a hint?
ACK!

Poly is left to the rightists and right to the leftists
.
But it really is left .

I'm left. Or at least I hope so. I don't think I could live with myself if I was right-wing.

Could someone help me here, by telling me which one I am now? I, honestly, don't know anymore.

Ask yourself if you were in power would you ... and when you start to think about you in power you know you're right wing
Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendant, and to embrace them is to acheive enlightenment.Comment

Paul and other lefties, why don't you try to argue the rightist point of view just for a lark? In fact, it might be fun to switch ideology for a day, where we all have to switch and argue politics from the opposite point of view.http://tools.wikimedia.de/~gmaxwell/jorbis/JOrbisPlayer.php?path=John+Williams+The+Imperial+M arch+from+The+Empire+Strikes+Back.ogg&wiki=enComment

I'd say I'm almost smack in the center, but maybe ever so slightly to the left (though I really do emphasize EVER SO SLIGHTLY). I'm about as likely to embrace communism, in any form, as I am to become a hyper-patriotic right-wing American.
As for 'poly, I'd say there's a good mix of left and right extremes, but the overall skew is most likely a little more left than I am."The French caused the war [Persian Gulf war, 1991]" - Ned

I get to do that nearly every post, since the lefties think I'm a rightie and the righties think I'm a lefty.

I am not American. European. From Spain. I am right wing.
For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment
