No I assign them to what they support, and say, iregardless of position to me. If they consistantly support collectivism, government over individual rights, censorship, socialism, they get assigned on the left.If you're going to assign political spectrum position to others relative to where you are on the spectrum, you're gonna have a hard time.
I been on here more then a few years.....and while he's not radical left, and not a bad guy as a person, he's deffinately consitantly on the left and defending it. And while I might be happy enough to have a beer with him in real life, I'd still call him out for defending them. Some of my best friends are left leaning though.....but that does't mean I won't say it like I see it.You've mis-assigned Mojo, then.
Can you understand now why I posted what I did about assigning placement on the political spectrum relative to where you are? The post you just made reinforces, to me, that is what you are doing.That makes one of us.

If you look at my post count compared to yours it shows two things. 1. I have no life and post here too much. 2. I have interacted with other posters about 5x more than you. If your take on Mojo is he leans left, you should read more of his posts and/or work to improve your reading comprehension.I been on here more then a few years.....and while he's not radical left, and not a bad guy as a person, he's deffinately consitantly on the left and defending it.

If I am being really honest I would say there's a certain class of left these days that are not really lefty, rather their left out of habit, they still haven't figured out that the Democrats of the 70s and 80s are long gone. I consider it my duty to hold up their cognative dissonance so that they might ponder how they can hold completely opposing views simultaneously, and maybe see finally what has become of this country, and that both the DNC and the GOP are collectivist now both far far away from what even Democrats were decades ago. .
Perhaps I have never mentioned, that I was once a Democrat, and I in fact worked for a certain Democrat in Tennessee's campaign. Most of my dislike comes not from what right wing people say, but what I saw for myself on the inside of a group completely utterly corrupt, without morals, and openly Marxist.
I consider most of the GOP as left leaning, your number of posts read doesn't change my view in the slightest. Perhaps my idea of left and yours are different. For instance I know that 80% of the GOP is further left then 80's Democrats who were also too far left.If you look at my post count compared to yours it shows two things. 1. I have no life and post here too much. 2. I have interacted with other posters about 5x more than you.

I mean, heck even Hog who is old and cognitively challenged is telling you Mojo isn't on the left.

I didn't think so, But due to my low post count perhaps I should take your word for it. I go through long phases of it's just not worth it, and merely lurk..I'll likely go on walkabout soon enough, being it's not even football season.
EXCELLENT! Now we are actually communicating.I consider most of the GOP as left leaning, your number of posts read doesn't change my view in the slightest.

If you haven't figured out yet I am an equal opportunists.....hell I have argued with slice on many many occaisions cause I felt he was "Wrong" on something that I felt was important and he's probably in my top 5 favorite people on here. As long as someone is not apart of the VMSG I always like to think they could still be good people. None of the VMSG are good people though...NONE.Mojo is awful, can't stand that guy. He's almost as bad as McDad.
Established by who? Is there an annual vote on that? Most in academia and media consistantly push left every year and have consitantly done so my entire life. If I accept that established dicotomy pretty soon Karl Marx will be an insulferable right wing nationalist. Is there any doubt that the GOP now is further left then Democrats in the 70-80's? I'm not of the mind that the "left" has a right to tell me where conservatives should be on a spectrum now, yet if you allow the government, or the MSM media to establish teh spectrum that is what they will do.EXCELLENT! Now we are actually communicating.
Your idea of left and right are different than mine. Ok. But there is an established spectrum on where people are wrt to politics. If your idea is different than mine, no biggie. If your idea is different from the established spectrum you can now fully embrace my brilliance in my initial post about how you're gonna have a hard time if youre assigning other's placement relative to yourself.
I feel like we're making a connection, here. Are you getting all warm and fuzzy on the inside, too???
Slice is literally the worst. He has a whole thread devoted to his unique ability to "bless" others.If you haven't figured out yet I am an equal opportunists.....hell I have argued with slice on many many occaisions cause I felt he was "Wrong" on something that I felt was important and he's probably in my top 5 favorite people on here.
