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.

    Those are far too generic of things to place you on the spectrum more than, “not a conservative fuckwad that doesn’t care about others”, which itself is a huge spectrum.

    As Cowbee said, a lot of the differentiation on the left is economic prescription, and your plan for how to bring that prescription in to reality. Most all of the left is socially progressive and accepts others, so that’s not differentiating much.
