I’m just curious for the new or existing people? Lemmy.ml has taken a hard turn to the right since the reddit exodus. There’s been a lot of pro-imperialist propaganda being posted on world news, and a lot less diversity of opinion. It feels more neoliberal and neo-con to me.
Does anyone want to share what their political leanings are?
I’ll start; I’m anti-imperialist pro-state regulated capitalism. I believe we should have usage based taxes (toll roads, carbon tax) and luxury taxes, and I disagree with wealth taxes for people with less than $250 million. The state should spend more money on consumer protection in all industries (environment, health, finance, etc.) I believe in multipolarity vs. US hegemony.
I’m an individualist. But not ideologically. I don’t mind if people organize however they want. I’m just gonna do whatever I’m gonna do and I don’t care if people prop up free healthcare, empires or communes around me as long as they let me do whatever I’m doing. If they do interfere I’ll just stand on the opposite ideology and pretend to be against them ideologically. I don’t even mind if they make laws against me, as long as they’re not enforcing them, because I can just be against the enforcement.
