To the people who think it's left-wing: while there are a lot of left-wing (by American standards) posters here, the conservative presence here makes things average out to center-left. Actual center-left posters are a distinct minority.

As other have said, it's mainly a liberal forum. Although with significant leftist and libertarian communities.



This.

I think the above might be just about right. Consistently center left posters run the risk of getting tagged as "moderate heroes." Tongue

In the same vein as the Social Democratic parties in Europe.

Generous as in this is obviously a left-wing forum, but generous to those that are like "ATLAS IS A RIGHT-WING CONSERVATIVE FORUM".

Somewhere in between options 2 and 3.  Voted option 3.

This, with a heavy socially liberal tinge.

It's a male forum.

Liberal, in the sense that the majority of posters here subscribe to various beliefs that could be placed under that umbrella label (in the sense of the conventional definition of liberalism, as opposed to the American definition). I mean, there are only a handful of hardcore left wingers (TNF, SWE), actual conservatives (DC, Cathcon and TJ) and intellectually barren types (me) to provide any variety.

This is pretty much correct. The liberal family is a pretty wide-ranging ideological family, though, and encompasses many yellow, blue, orange, light green, and red avatars who don't agree on very much in practice.

Fairly Left, but as has been pointed out before if this is mainly due to it being a forum of mostly under 35s. If the forum were representative of the U.S. in age demographics then it probably wouldn't have much of a bias at all.

Compared to General Secretary Montgomery's AlternateHistory.com, this is definitely much more conservative. It seems centrist to me, at least.

The red flag waves...

That said, voted left, but I'd put us between Warren and Clinton. Say, Martin O'Malley?
