I'm just curious, since most of the threads in this politics subforum seem to be liberals who like the Democrats and conservatives who like the Republicans shitting on each other.

As I said in a different thread, my political views are way to left of both major parties, and I dislike both Democrats and Republicans because I think both are too far to the right, and I think that almost all the politicians in both major parties are bought and paid for by the very rich and the big corporations. I voted for the Green Party's presidential candidate Howie Hawkins in the 2020 election, and I'm glad I did since so far it looks like Biden is just as shitty as Trump was.

I hate politicians on both sides. I hate that people/voters are beholden to a party, versus the best person (whoever that may be in their eyes).

I'm pretty simple when it comes to things.

Don't tax people to much.
Ensure taxes are utilized properly to ensure the safety of the citizenry.
Enforce the laws to ensure equal opportunity for all, not equal outcome.
Don't tell people how to live, so long as their actions do not impact others negatively. People should be free to believe what they want, so long they do not impose it on others who wish to live differently - why I say "actions" above.

Those are main ideas that I base who I will support on. Then it gets into the minutiae of application.
