So now you're being honest with yourself that you're no moderate? Your avatar is false, too.
Compared to you (far left) and compared to Faith (far right) I am as moderate as it gets. The only other moderate I can think of on the forum is Phat.
It's incomprehensible that you don't admit being a fellow traveler with the alt-right and Trump, given that your views so closely align with theirs.
And what view is that, aside from my support of the 2nd Amendment? What position(s) do I hold that aligns so closely with the Alt-Right? We're eking towards Godwin's Law here. If I wanted to reduce you to a Stalinist, all I'd have to do is point out a few similarities and ascribe them to you.
As I've pointed out before, when have I ever shied away from controversy or speaking my mind in the decade + that I've been here??? If I was Alt-Right I would proudly just tell you.
But you and Faith could have a wonderful discussion. Premise: Trump is a wonderful president.
He's not a wonderful president and is in fact one of the worst, of which, I've been very vocal about.
Fertility rates decline as women's rights and education increase, and the answer is immigration, something the right seems firmly against.
And I have stated that immigration is of vital importance to the security of the United States. I am in agreement that the declining birth rate is problematic for the countries experiencing it and that smart, sensible immigration is an excellent way to hedge against it.
You keep saying "the Right" and making associations with me. I'm against Trump, I'm against the outdated concept of a wall, I'm in support of increased legal immigration, etc. You took one thing where I said the way France, Sweden and Germany is doing it is stupid and built an entire false narrative out of it.
