If we’re using a linear spectrum of left to right, how far left am I? I would consider myself on the left end of politics and was thinking of joining the Green Party in the U.S.
Here are some of the things I believe in:
Homeless people should get free housing. If I were in charge, they would live in shelters or big buildings like hotels.
Rights for all!
We should make countries better for all and not just go along with whatever the politician says, specifically where I live in the United States. Real patriotism is trying to make a better, for example, United States for everyone and not just going along with whatever our President says and defending his corrupt ideas.
Climate change is a real issue that needs to be taken care of.
LGBTQ+ people deserve representation completely and everyone should be free of discrimination.
Immigration is what shapes the United States (I use a lot of American examples because that’s where I live, sorry!) and they should not be tortured, deported, discriminated against, anything. It should be a free country and the borders should be less strict.
Weapons should be banned and crime should somehow become a very rare thing to deal with.
I think another important point to add is, I assume that your pro-socialism economic position is not independent of all those social positions. For an example, our economic structure affects whether we can fight climate change, or whether wealthy industries (including oil, mining, dairy) can maintain disproportionate political power and continue driving politics.
Good point!
