I'm sure it'll be deeply upsetting to be banned from the US for the few months Trump will be in office.

I tend to be quite left on a lot of issues, but tbh as a whole I flip flop around on stuff. Some of my views on stuff would horrify 'lefties' whilst others would rile 'righties'. So yeah...I actually cannot imagine being completely right or left. Though I have been accused of being both far right and far left...its a bit daft

What a nice honest post. Did make me laugh at the end there.

Here's a liberal guy Dave Rubin, who a couple of years ago would have called himself 'on the left', but now he constantly finds himself criticising the left. I'm guessing this is the kind of person you'd refer to as far-right, because of some of his opinions. He's a gay guy by the way and is married to another guy.

The left is no longer Liberal

That was very interesting, thank you for sharing.

You're welcome.

He has a chat/debate show on YT called The Rubin report, where he does one on one interviews/debates with some good opinionated political commentators.

Interesting video Alf and no, I certainly don't think he's far right... anything but! I do in fact agree with a lot of what he's suggesting about the left (though the American Left and the British Left are uniquely different) but then so is Classical and Modern Liberalism.

Once or twice he crosses a line into Moderate Libertarianism. Nothing wrong with that but when it comes to the vote, because Liberal/Libertarianism ideologies are so varied and hugely individual, they will always come over as a little vague.
