Opinion of the previous poster's ideology

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

Cowardice.

[Goldwater]

lol

[FEMA Camp Administrator]

Its secularism is disturbing, but overall it's a good ideology.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Represents everything that is wrong with humanity.

[windjammer]

Mostly good

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Like I've said before, good guy but bad ideology.

[FEMA Camp Administrator]

Represents everything that is wrong with humanity.

Being self-aware is something you'd prefer humanity do without?

[Goldwater]

Sanchez: Overall, pretty good. My main issues would be his foreign policy and his support for protectionism. I might be wrong about that second part, but I seem to recall him saying something about supporting protectionism...

[Maxwell]

A good ideology if he would stop bombing people

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Not really compatible with my own beliefs and I think it's wrongheaded in several aspects but it's well-meaning, respectable, and practical.

[Goldwater]

Very different from mine, we probably agree on very little. But he's also very good at representing his beliefs in a smart and respectful way.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

His brand of conservatism is much less awful than the norms of the GOP today. 

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

It's for the most part unreconstructed Whiggery, but there are admirable elements of self-awareness and a social-democratic overlay that mitigate that somewhat.

[Deus Naturae]

Pretty far removed from my own. On the few issues we agree on, we probably have totally different reasoning.

Elaborate.

I could be misreading your intentions or motivations or something but most of the time you do appear to view movement towards your positions on many political and cultural issues--positions which tend to emphasize personal autonomy, come across as generally individualist in focus, and take a very high view of the role of science and technology--as in some sense inherent, or at least to view deviation from this as aberrant and requiring explanation, and this seems to be a central enough concern for the image of your views that comes across on the forum that your thought process as a whole ends up looking very Whiggish.

That's probably somewhat accurate.  I do feel in many ways I am representing what humanity will catch up to.  Arrogant, yes, but there are much worse things one can be.

[SWE]

Couldn't be father away from me on economics, but awesome on social issues and foreign policy

[windjammer]

Terrible, but I recognize he's not a silly teenager individualist like some other posters. And he's nice.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

windjammer's ideology is more or less good and probably closer to mine than almost any other poster's but the candidates that it leads him to support are sometimes less than ideal.

[DC Al Fine]

Not a fan, but it's one of my favourite flavours of left wing politics. Plus he speaks with nuance and uses term properly. I'm inclined to like the ideology of anyone who does that

[Хahar 🤔]

Obviously I don't find myself in agreement with much of it, but I understand the place that it comes from, which is more than can be said for most posters.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Not into it at all.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

As it currently stands, pretty awful, but he shows an admirable learning process that one hopes takes him somewhere far better, because I think he's fundamentally sensitive, well-intentioned, and decent.
