/leftypol/ - Leftist Politically Incorrect

I mean you have to decide in the end anon whether healthcare is an important enough issue for you that you can pinch your nose and join in the same room as the hated minorities or whether you hate minorities enough that you'd rather lose healthcare than be with them

>right wing socially but center left economically
Ah, so a liberal. Just figure out how "social politics" are rooted in economics and you'll be full left in no time.

I suggest making a notebook, personal website, spreadsheet or something and have a page dedicated to articles you read that you think you'll need later to found your opinions. This will encourage you to not let stupid stuff like youtube content farms influence you and lets you discuss the sources of your opinions with peers that might have information you're missing.
Also write the occasional essay to figure out if the sum of those beliefs are coherent or not.

Just avoid anything labelled critical theory for now. It's not 100% useless but most of it is crap.

You would want a Marxist understanding of identity issues starting with imperialism and domestic labor.

Also ignore the third-worldists. The Black Panthers already saw back in the 1970s that the post-war labor aristocracy was starting to decay.

BTW a lot of us people of identity absolutely hate the imperialist labor aristocracy intelligentsia and social sector workers who abuse us and want to keep us as pet monkeys. They're worse than compradors, fucking scumbag house-transhumanist radfems.

I'm a gay ugly retard but you might be a libertarian of some sort. Do you believe that regular people should be allowed to do what they want but want restrictions on those in power?

I'm gay btw

You fit in with the wall

>I don't feel welcome with the left or the right.
wull thars yer problem

take some political quizzes and see the results

So your issue is what? You hate corporations and brown people?

Other anons have already covered the basic jump-points so imma just comment on these:
>Neither of the big political parties really want me at their lunch table.
In the USA? They don't want humans at their lunch table. Both your major parties are captured by the owning class, and have been since before you or I were born. If you seriously think either of those sides care about religion, race or normal people's rights more than they do money and power, I recommend having a closer look at them.
>I'm too […] pro gun
You'll be happy to know that Marx, and Marxists, are extremely pro-gun. And for that matter, Republicans are only selectively pro-gun (see: the Mulford Act in 1967).

What a stupid thing to say.

>>2414705
so in a communist society, you support full gun ownership?

>>2414489
You will die a slave to ghosts in your head

>>2414706
Provided we have surrounding support (teaching people how to use guns safely) then I see no problem with full gun ownership. It's admittedly something I haven't thought too much on so there might be an edge case here or there where a person demonstrates they aren't responsible, but overall, guns are empowering and in a communist society where our productive forces (that we already have in the West) can cater for everyone's basic needs, the risk of using guns for crime will be far less than what some of us are used to.

>I don't feel welcome
the binary of american politics is pretty hard to fit in at all so i wouldnt know how i would do it.
My view of politics is a bit dumbed down when politics are concerned i personally never mind a persons confessed "ideology" or "views" only the organizations they go with and if they dont go with any i dont consider them active in politics.

I am also religious and conservative in my social views a bit nationalist even and this will never change about me no matter how many books or analysis i read,however being a engineer at a military owned factory prompts me by default to also be a union representative for our part of the line and with our current voted on strategy it also prompts me to be present and participate in meetings with all kinds of parties from liberals,nationalists i even once had a meeting with a anarchist group,but mostly on our issues we collaborate with either the ruling party or the legacy socialist party from the time when we were a socialist country.
I personally dont agree with most of the things the last to stand for and have never voted for them however for our issues they are the only ones capable of fixing it.

>to justify voting Democrat but Republicans
stop thinking politics boil down to voooting for starter

>too religious and pro gun
as long as you dont want to push your stupid beliefs in the civil society nobody care what you believe, plenty of communists are pro gun

You sound third positionist. I'm surprised that you haven't found a home in the "dissident right" (for lack of a better term), there's a lot of difference in economic thought there.
