What would you consider your political ideology to be?
I'm just curious for the new or existing people? Lemmy.ml has taken a hard turn to the right since the reddit exodus. There's been a lot of pro-imperialist propaganda being posted on world news, and a lot less diversity of opinion. It feels more neoliberal and neo-con to me.
Does anyone want to share what their political leanings are?
I'll start; I'm anti-imperialist pro-state regulated capitalism. I believe we should have usage based taxes (toll roads, carbon tax) and luxury taxes, and I disagree with wealth taxes for people with less than $250 million. The state should spend more money on consumer protection in all industries (environment, health, finance, etc.) I believe in multipolarity vs. US hegemony.

My views come from reflection and logical reasoning not group think. Therefore, I'll never fit into a political category. IMO very few issues are resolved when people allow themselves to be polarized; creating a situation where each side feeds off the other's extremism. This results in dehumanizing one another to the point that it's no longer about finding an agreeable solution, but destroying this or that side completely.
So basically Centrism?
