Never understood why people are so eager to find and declare an ideological identity. You don't have to join a club, you can think all the same things you think now without saying "I'm a whatever". And if someone asks about a particular policy you can tell them what you think without attaching yourself to every other human that identifies as whatever you think makes a good ideological identity.
It's the modern way to have to put a label on everything. It's tedious and it's precisely why I hate identity politics.
It's also a hell of a lot easier than explaining your political position from first principles. There's a good, simple reason we have and use labels - they're useful.
That's called being a centrist or an independent. Lemmy hates those.
Splitters!
NGL, a politics game set in this universe would be awesome.
