Trotsky was an annoying liberal conservative, with J.S. Mill as his most ''radical'' idol, before coming to his senses and realising Marxism-Leninism is the future.

What about you? What path did you take before seeing the light in St. Lenin? It seems to me that a lot of people from the revolutionary Left today come from a libertarian background.

I'm too pessimistic to really care but once in a while I vote socialist in order to secure my welfare.

i am not a marxist; I may be an aristocrat neuroanarchist, honorary mason 37 degree, Holder Of The Golden Lotus, the third reincarnation of Dali and a marxist, but i am not a marxist!

i believe that no other agent in this society has a right to criticize the foundations of my mental phenomenology, hollywoodean metaphysical presumptions trigger my neurosensitivity, but i neuroidentify as a conservative thinker so I cant use tumblerian metanarratives to support my cause in an active way
apart of that, yes, it all comes down to sniffing glue and neurousing the prefix neuro-

Similar. Not calling myself Marxist though.

I've never heard of any leftist coming from libertarian. I did, funny enough. I remember that Penn and Teller show in early highschool being like my bible or something.

As a teenager I was a liberal, was in favour of Obama's 2008 victory and so on, but now I would identify as an anarchist.

Nihilist Traditionalist reporting in.

Not an anarchist but what happened in Spain was pretty cool in my opinion not sure if was sustainable. Also Leninism has always failed. Most countries that implemented that form of communism are pretty shitty. Not sure what the answer is but it is not Leninism.

Good one, 3/10.

Politics are a complicated game, and every time I try my luck, I lose. It seems like you can't win. I'm not the kind of bitter guy who says "Tous pourri !" I only say "Whatever works." Liberal ideas may create a really good economy and social cohesion, with as much chance as socialism... Depends. Depends of a lot of factors. You can't be strictly the advocate of [political idea] all your life. We are never in the same stream, we are and we're not.

Stop with your words ! Stop with your etiquette ! I am what I am ! I am not a skeptic. Maybe, Sextus Empiricus can be named a skeptic, because it simplifies it. But, hell, don't try to throw your fishing nets at me.
