I'm Sivad and I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to register. The forum appears to be pretty active and the community seems interesting so I figured I'd join in the fun. I look forward to talking politics with you all and getting some different perspectives on the issues.

Hello. Care to share your political position?

Sure, I'm an economic progressive and a social liberal, I'm in favor of heavily regulated markets and a strong welfare state, but I'm opposed to some liberal policies like immigration, gun control, and carbon pricing. I don't really fit in with any of the current political factions but I've been actively supporting the progressive movement even though I strongly disagree with some of the major planks there. I should say that on the liberal/progressive policies that I oppose it's mostly for entirely different reasons than the standard conservative arguments.
