What are some political beliefs you share with the Democratic party? View Quote I perceive many here to lean toward being Libertarian. Libertarians are often conservative in many areas but liberal in others (e.g. pot needles). [Edit: Beat - but point made] |

Legalize da weed man.
It’s a good tax opportunity, and actually helps many with some medical issues. Other than that... free everything! |
|
I believe we could do a much better job about caring for our planet. Not to the point of trying to force people, however.
|
|
|
I'm a libertarian, but its gotten to the point that I oppose anything the liberals want.
If they like it it must be bad. |
|
Nothing, really. they've gotten all the equality they need. These days, they're just looking for privilege...fuck'em!

The modern Democratic Party very little too none. The moderate liberals of decades ago I agreed with their free speech stance. I see myself as a Jeffersonian liberal with some conservative values but these crazy leftist progressives are out of their mind.

I'm not sure Democrats have any beliefs that span the party anymore.
I guess I'm on board with any of the individual liberty stuff (gay marriage, ending WoD, stop legislating morality), but that's really it. Everything they stand for other than that is just statism. |
|
It's hard to say, because their beliefs are constantly changing depending on who occupies the White House. Also, I believe that cognitive dissonance is a fundamental tenet of progressivism.

I'd never use the shit and I think you're a fucking dumbass if you ever would, but I favor legalization of drugs BUT with a few caveats: You're not eligible for medical/rescue services on tax dollars as a result of drug usage or any accident that results from drug usage, and you are fully liable for ALL damages, direct, consequential, or incidental to your drug use.
I'm not completely anti-abortion, either. I think it's the lousiest method of birth control going but I don't believe in a "prohibition" scenario, which never achieves its goal, that ostensibly being the eradication of the behavior or action that is central to the issue. That just never works. In fact, when it comes to democrats, I'm fully in favor of retroactive abortion up to about the 300th trimester. I believe that ultimately your freedom should be confirmed to be absolute with regard to your own body. It is sovereign territory. Do what you wish to it and with it. You have total ownership of everything from your own skin inward. And absolute authority over what is done to you except that you may possibly earn the death penalty for the most grievous of crimes. |

Legalize weed. Don't legalize weed. Don't care.
Gay marriage? Don't care. (The trans BS is a whole other issue) That's about where it ends. Don't believe we can control the climate. Don't believe in baby murder. Fuck the Dims on that one. |

I don’t believe I’m shunning homosexuals. Just as long as they don’t expect special treatment and they are decent and dignified.

1. I believe in most social programs as long as they aren't a career choice
2. I used to believe in their support for the blue collar workers (they've abandon this now) 3. While I don't believe in Climate Change per say I do believe in being environmentally friendly and taking care of mother earth. The second they figured out a way to make money off Carbon Credits they lost me. 4. I used to believe in their stance on immigration but we've seen the parties completely flip-flop on this one so now I align with the Republicans. The problem with the Democrats today is there isn't any middle ground. They've swung too far to the left for me. My father, who voted Democrat his whole life voted for Trump and will do so again in 2020 because he saw them abandon the middle class/blue collar workers in favor of the fringe and illegals. |

The only thing they have is their seething hatred for Trump; right now they have nothing.
They have zero ideas, only hate. Vote for us, we will fuck the economy back up doesn’t seem to have the same ring as keep America great. |

I agree with them that they shouldn't own guns.
I'm down with legalizing weed. I am against abortion, to the point it's one of very few political topics that really get to me. I do take some comfort in the fact that it is likely by and large the left that are killing future Democrats before they are born and rarely conservatives. So there's that. Eta: Legalizing prostitution. The ability to pay and leave freely would make some liberal women more fuckable. Getting fucked by more conservative men would probably take care of a little of the crazy. As it stands now it's not worth the risk of having to engage with one. |

Quoted: ^ Also. I believe that everyone should have access to healthcare and education regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, etc. (where I differ, is that if you want it... you gotta pay for it ). View Quote |

They are a cancer upon freedom and should be dealt with accordingly.
If that's not one of their planks, it ought to be. |

30 years ago I might have found a few commonalities with the Ds.
But no more. |

I want to legalize drugs and get rid of DUI statutes.
I also believe that those things cannot be done in a vacuum and would require actual criminal enforcement of existing law as well as actually making criminals serve their time instead of merely having adult day cares where criminals learn to be better criminals and only serve a fraction of their sentence. Bring back slavery as a restitution option. |

legalize weed
legalize shrooms and lsd legalize prostitution let consenting adults bang any other consenting adult they come to an agreement with life starts when a fetus becomes viable outside the womb (yes, this means the goal post will move somewhat over time as technology and health care improve) |

Weed should be legal. Homos should be able to get married. Abortion should be legal. Global warming is real and a big deal.

I dont care if gay/lesbos want to get married. However I think tranny people have a mental illness
I think pot should be legal I also dont care if a shitty parent wants to abort their child, likely the parents is a democrat and will spawn a democrat. That's about it |
