I'm blunt, get over it asked in Politics & GovernmentPolitics · 1 year ago

Are my views really that extreme?

My beliefs can be boiled down to live and let live. 

I believe fully in the right bear arms. 

I believe that the government is generally the absolute worst possible entity to accomplish anything. 

i believe that gay people should be allowed to get married if they want to. 

I believe that adults should be able to choose to change their gender if they want to. 

I believe that adults should be able to take drugs if they want to. 

i believe that abortion should be legal, but there has to be a limit. That limit is the 3rd trimester. 

I believe that 2 parents is always a better option than 1. 

I believe that includes two gay parents. 

i believe that your money is yours, and anyone taking it from you is stealing. 

I believe that no one has the right to anyone else's work, expertise or training. 

to put it more humorously i believe that gay married couples have the right to protect their marijuana plants, and adopted children with an AR-15 if they want to. 

Update:

I believe that the color of your skin, your sexual preference, or gender identity do not really matter, people should be judged solely on the content of their character.

    Congratulations, you're a libertarian. Your views do not support the use of force or exploitation against other people, so no, your views are not extreme.

    Yes. The belief that a country can survive without taxes -- that it is even possible, let alone desirable, for humans to live without taxes is possible the most disproven political idea in the history of the world. Until the U.S. started taking money for social security, workers who had to stop working because of age or disability died almost immediately -- on average, they lived only two years. Not taking any money from anyone is basically murder, because so many deaths results; none of the other stuff would matter very much, because almost no one would live to benefit from it.

    I don't agree with many of your positions...however....you're putting them out there. Perhaps you are openminded. I am Certain that you're right on anything by the government. I don't believe in any alternative lifestyle stuff....but recognize someone's right to have it as long as they don't try and force me to pay for it or the consequences of it. I think the gay parents stuff needs to be studied for a higher incidence of child abuse. I believe a woman has rights to her own body...she should also take responsibility for the care of it and take precautions. The baby within is not her.
