kind of in the middle and I must say it sucks because every election it feels like I have to forsake some of my beliefs in favor of others.

The way I look at it, I am never going to agree completely with any politician. So I go with who ever I think is best fit for the job, especially when it comes to local elections, it gives me options.

If you're truly left or right then you aren't paying attention. Following a party by default with blind loyalty and not making up your mind about each individual issue is how we all found ourselves in this situation in the first place. Learn from your mistakes, people.

I understand this sentiment, and I despise the political parties. But I find that my morals and principles line up better with conservatives. I'm very much a traditionalist, but I'd never be considered far-right due to my stances on handouts to the poor, and abortion. Center-right would fit me, I suppose... just as long as I don't get lumped in with the pot smoking libertarians.

This, Syntheticons failure to make that distinction shows hes one of those people who knows jack shit about politics but likes to play the moderate angle to feel like he knows what hes talking about.

Neither and both, I'm a moderate libertarian. I think government should serve four purposes... defense, healthcare, infrastructure, and education. So I'm clearly not even a real libertarian, since I believe in universal healthcare and public education.

I strongly believe in the non aggression principle. I am highly anti war. I believe in gay rights, gun rights, and cannabis legalization. I disapprove of abortion morally, but I don't think that I, nor the state, should make that decision for others, so I am both life and pro choice. I feel that grandiose displays of patriotism are ironically unamerican. I'm not a big believer in most welfare, but I'm not as anti welfare as most republicans or libertarians. Also, unlike libertarians, I do believe in an increased minimum wage. I think that low wages increase government dependence. I also support free trade and open immigration.

Categorizing yourself as one or the other limits independent thought.

It depends completely on the issue in question. ^.^;

I range all the way from quite far left, to quite far right, along with the many various points in between -- all depending on the issue being discussed.

In general I'm much closer to populist nationalist isolationist, or in one word "Trumpist", ^.~
than I am either to orthodox leftist or to orthodox rightist -- although I certainly do disagree with Trump on several points as well.

.

at "ITT: Post your 8values test results."
https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/3-poll-of-the-day/75885866

me:
I'd consider myself as being on the economic left-wing of and within the overall right-wing-populist movement. ^.^


.

Speaking of matters of this sort....

Pew Research very recently released a new edition of their "political typology" series:
http://www.people-press.org/2017/10/24/political-typology-reveals-deep-fissures-on-the-right-and-left/
http://www.npr.org/2017/10/24/559774933/2-party-system-americans-might-be-ready-for-8

the quiz itself:
http://www.people-press.org/quiz/political-typology/

Of the nine categories, the quiz placed me in "Country First Conservatives", and I feel that that's a reasonably good fit (except I certainly wouldn't call myself a "conservative" overall);
but I feel I'm also very very close to "Market Skeptic Republicans". An extremely close second place, virtually a tie.

Both "Core Conservatives" and "Solid Liberals" are alike in being quite different from me -- so again, I'm certainly neither "orthodox rightist" nor "orthodox leftist", just as I had said at the beginning.

But both "New Era Enterprisers" on the "right", and "Opportunity Democrats" on the "left", are both definitely and by far the furthest away from me; essentially my polar opposites.

Pew releases a new edition of this every few years or so.
In their past two editions, I did fit "Hard-Pressed Skeptics" quite well in their 2014 one, and "Disaffecteds" quite well in their 2011 one; both groups being in or near the middle, due to their mix of views considered "left" and views considered "right", crucially along with many views that don't fit either.

.

So, again, certainly not "left-wing" overall and also certainly not "right-wing" overall; so I didn't vote, sorry. ;.;
cuteness ^.^

Mostly agree with with this, minus a point or two
