Am I considered far right now?

[Septemberisaweirdmonth]

Years ago I would have described myself as liberal and on the left. Over recent years the things I seem to agree with seem to be considered to be on the right and even far right

Examples:

I see nothing wrong with wanting to retain British culture or the innate culture of any country and see nothing wrong with a country being proud of its flag..as many are-Spain, Usa, Portugal etc etc

Whilst I have no issue with anyone being transgender, I do not believe transgender males should play in female sports, be in female toilets, prisons etc and I don’t believe children should be given drugs to alter their gender.

I think immigration in Europe needs to be controlled.,and quickly

I would be put off a man and likely wouldn’t see him again if he asked to split the bill on a first date. I can pay the bill four times over, but that’s not the point.

I am educated to post degree status and worked full time in my career for many years until I had my dc, I then wanted to and was thankfully able to stay at home. I see nothing wrong with the man going out to work, the mum staying home, taking care of the kids and the house-if that suits everyone and they’re happy doing that. My ideal scenario now would be a nice community, homeschooling and raising kids.

I am not anti abortion completely but my stance leans more towards this angle (I don’t tell anyone this though)

I regularly watched Charlie kirk, whilst I didn’t agree with everything and i’m not hugely religious, I agreed with a lot of his points and found he made his points respectfully. I also regularly watch Piers morgan uncensored

I didn’t agree with the almost forcing of people to have the covid injection

I quite like Trump

I feel embarrassed writing all this down as I feel I can’t really say this in real life

Have I become far right?

Are you anti abortion like the OP?

I agree with some of the OP's points anout staying at home to raise kids if you want to, and on British culture, although I consider myself European rather than British. But more importantly I detest Donald Trump, Nigel Farage, 'Tommy Robinson' and others of that ilk.
Also a woman's right to choose whether to have an abortion or not is absolute, no ifs or buts.
I'm relaxed about legal immigration and asylum seekers but see the people coming on small boats as an urgent problem for us to solve in the most humanitarian ways possible.
I have a problem choosing how to vote, have never voted for the Tories and cannot see myself doing so in future. Previously I have spoiled my ballot, writing protest messages and/or 'none of the above' over it.
I can't say I'm happy with how the Labour government is panning out. I was a party member but left a couple of years ago when the TWAW creed was allowed to prevail. I think (hope) cooler and more rational heads have rethought this but I am concerned there are still believers in the Party who swallowed the ideology hook, line and sinker.

I don't knownif I would.peg you as far right but I certainly would t want to be stuck in conversation with you.
You sound very jam, Jerusalem and judgemental.

I just want to say that the discourse about people in other countries being proud of their flags tends to be quite ignorant. In the vast majority of cases there’s connotations to displaying a flag in a domestic setting. Highlighting domestic here. I’m Spanish (one of your examples), and only right wing people put the flag up - although they would also say that it only means they’re proud of being Spanish, and would also say that they do it in other countries with no issues. It’s the same pseudo nationalistic bs

You hold your opinion as I will hold mine.

Genuine question- what are your concerns in terms of illegal immigration? I’m a (legal) immigrant (have always worked here, pay the higher rate of tax etc.) As I understand it, illegal immigration in the U.K. is circa 0.5% of all migrants?

No OP you haven't become far right, just more experienced in life and there's nothing wrong with that. 😊

No - firmly agree with a woman’s right to choose but respect anyone who would not want one.

I’ve already answered several times throughout the thread. :)

so that completely distinguishes you from the OP. Unless youre also a trump fan.

Yes you are becoming far right. Shame.

I tend to agree with most of what you put but never heard of this Kirk person before he got shot.

"Whilst I have no issue with anyone being transgender, I do not believe transgender males should play in female sports, be in female toilets, prisons etc and I don’t believe children should be given drugs to alter their gender." I am as far away from far right as you could possibly be, but I don't disagree with this comment.

You are normal.

Most of MN probably agrees with this comment

What I am suggesting is that people can make a snap judgment. You’re claiming he wasn’t a good man simply because he had a different opinion to you, not because of something he did. If he committed some atrocious crime I would understand but he simply thought differently and was killed for it.

or as normal as an anti abortion, trump loving, vaccine denier can be..

What is the point in border control if we allow illegal immigrants.

'Transphobes'. Aka as women who don't want men in women's spaces

The only people 'spewing vitriol' have been rabid haters excited that a man was murdered oh because his views were different to theirs .

You're minimising the awfulness of his rhetoric and opinion. Let me remind you

Most people are scared when they see a black pilot flying a plane
Taylor Swift should reject feminism and submit to her husband
No one should be allowed to retire
Leftists should not be allowed to move to red states
British Colonialism was what "made the world decent"
The guy who assaulted the Pelosi's should be bailed out
Religious freedom should be terminated
Multiple black politicians "stole white people’s spots"
MLK Jr was "an awful person"
The Great Replacement Theory is reality
Hydroxychloroquine cures COVID
Vaccine requirements are "medical apartheid"
Guns deaths are acceptable in order to have a 2nd amendment
Women’s natural place is under their husband’s control
Parents should prevent their daughters from taking birth control
George Floyd had it coming, the Jan 6th protestors didn’t
The 1964 Civil Rights Act was a "huge mistake"

These are not the opinion of a good man.

Claiming that this is "simply thought differently" completely misses the point.

And you're doing it deliberately.

I’m an American, so I’m living through this shitstorm right now, and, yes, you are far right. Charlie Kirk was a despicable human being. Respectful?? Ha ha! He would scream at college students and say the most defamatory things about women, transgender, non-whites, etc, all under the guise of “debate” just to stir up more civil/political unrest in this country. He said that a number of gun deaths (including school shootings) were an acceptable price to pay for protecting the 2nd Amendment, so he was a casualty of his own beliefs. (For the record, I don’t think ANYONE should be murdered.) And don’t even get me started on Trump. You “like” a pedophile, convicted felon, racist, pathological liar, and malignant narcissist? I feel sorry for your children.

Even if they don’t formally use all services, undocumented immigrants may still need emergency care, prenatal care in urgent situations, or temporary housing, and uncounted populations can affect local planning. These are the indirect ways their presence can impact communities.

It is interesting though. I am a right leaning centrist. I am a feminist and I believe in capitalism and free markets. I am a remainer and think those who voted for brexit were largely uneducated about the issues or fooled by clever propaganda (or racist).

My teen DC would say I'm fairly right wing (largely due to my view that females need female only space)

Illegal immigration or asylum seekers?

Don't be ridiculous. None of this is far right. Do you even know what far right is?
