Some posters really surprised me with their answers.

To me, it doesn't matter how I think I am, it only matters how others think about my political views.

So, I am right / conservative.

I voted for center-left, but the reality is, I'm really just a "statist." I support state controls and programs for some things that would be considered liberal causes, some things that would be considered conservative causes, and some things that would be hard to define either way.

Yeah, having read through the posts more carefully and seeing how some are identifying themselves, I'm ROFLMAO.

If they're center - I must be a conservative.

Or...you are very far right?

You think most centrists are effectively communists?

I consider myself to be a pretty hardcore conservative, no leaning for me. Freedom Caucus all the way
