Does this mean i should take over as the official far-left loon?
I'm actually a registered independent and a moderate. But in contrast to certain right-wing, homophobic, religious nutjobs, I understand how you were confused.

from your perspective, i'm sure anyone to the left of Franco is a pinko, commie libbie. hell, even franco was probably a liberal in your world.Originally Posted by Module88
I'm sure. Because I call people commie libbie's all the time. Smeg's over there, bud. I don't think very many people here would call you a moderate by any means. Why do you think people are voting for you to replace Llad? Hint: Llad was not a moderate.Originally Posted by FreezerBurn
here's a hint. for every issue, there's a spectrum of opinion. i'll give you a few of the most obvious examples.Originally Posted by Module88
Guns:
Far right: people should be able to buy whatever guns they like without restrictions.
Far left: private ownership of guns should be abolished.
Moderate: people should be able to buy guns for sporting and self protection. but the sale of guns should be tightly regulated.
Abortion:
Far right: abortion is murder
Far left: any and all abortion should be legal
Moderate: prefer adoption in all cases. but women have the right to do what they choose with their bodies. but late-term abortions should be banned unless the woman's heath is at risk.
Death Penalty
Far right: yee haw, let's light ol' sparky up!
Far left: barbaric practice. should be banned.
Moderate: should be reserved to the most heinous offenses. and should be applied fairly to members of all races.
Tightly regulated. Sounds like you're leaning left to me. I'd say they should be regulated, and that should be enough. Tightly regulated? Sounds like California to me.Originally Posted by FreezerBurn
By tightly, I assume you mean strict gun control laws. That definitely sounds left. Gun control laws should be in effect to ensure certain things (won't go into detail here), but strict gun control laws rings of liberalism. Few, and I mean few, believe we should abolish guns by law (we all know how that would turn out), and few believe we should have no control over them whatsoever. Doesn't that make almost everyone a moderate, then, so long as we're not on either side?
If that's the case, sure, you're a moderate. But by moderate, I think, not leaning too far left or right.
Prefer Adoption? :scratch: So if you don't prefer adoption you aren't a moderate?Abortion:
Far right: abortion is murder
Far left: any and all abortion should be legal
Moderate: prefer adoption in all cases. but women have the right to do what they choose with their bodies. but late-term abortions should be banned unless the woman's heath is at risk.
I'm not sure about your stances on these issues, but I don't think very many forumgoers here are making decisions based on what you think you believe. I think most of us take a look at how you act, and your past actions sure indicate that you aren't moderate by any means. If you are, you certainly lean left quite a bit. At least, that's what many forumgoer's seem to think. I hope you aren't going to take that anywhere.Death Penalty

tightly regulated = no assault weapons. no "cop killers" (armor piercing bullets). and closing gun show loopholes that get around background checks.Originally Posted by Module88
If you support an absolute ban on abortion, chances are you're not a moderate.Prefer Adoption? :scratch: So if you don't prefer adoption you aren't a moderate?
Like I said, it's a matter of contrast. there are quite a few far-right members on here. I tend to disagree with them. in their minds, I'm the opposite. I also post from time to time on a Canadian forum. On there, I'm considered right-wing. And yet I'm posting the same opinions. I'm sure the humor of that is lost on you. But I find it amusing.I'm not sure about your stances on these issues, but I don't think very many forumgoers here are making decisions based on what you think you believe.
