Doesn't Really Mean Anything, but fun thought exercise

There you go impersonating important people again.

I think QI and I come in at pretty similar points. Of course, I also thought I would come in a little to the left of Mik.
Of course, it also depends on the issue, how serious that individual takes the issue, and how important the observer seems the issue and their own stance.

Thanks! Epanalepsis. Epanalepsis. Need to remember that.
Epanalepsis overuse is widely disparaged by linguistic elites as a sign of insufferable snobbery amongst British introverts, Harvard graduates, hipsters, and other practitioners of epanalepsis overuse.

Ha! For the little political posting I do now, it would not be easy to place me in the list. There are also many topics we never discuss here that put me very much in the center. I'm more likely to be closer to Mik. I suspect George would be, too.
It doesn't matter really. It's difficult to create such a list from only posts here.

Over here I'd be classified as far right in the current political climate.
AFD is far right. Not you.
Well, this is where the one-dimensional left-right spectrum is no longer suitable.
The AFD is currently being torn apart. There are roughly two fractions: Those who want a party that is characterized by strong nationalism and socialist policies, similar to National Rally (formerly known as National Front) in France. I have nothing in common whatsoever with these people. There's another fraction that basically wants something like what the CDU used to be 20 years ago, or maybe a bit like the Tories in the UK. They could be described as roughly conservative and economically (classical) liberal. I have some sympathy for those people, but I don't like that they have these other idiots in the same party.
But in any case, these days it is sufficient to be in favor of markets and capitalism or in favor of any form of immigration control to be deemed "far right" by many. In that sense I am far right, even though obviously I myself don't view it that way.

I feel like I'm out of step with pretty much all parties. The Republicans/British Conservatives are a
truly odious bunch, and the Democrats/Labour Party are by-and-large idiots or just pander to various fringe nutters. At the last British election I found myself hoping that both leaders would somehow fall into an open sewer together.What to do?
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Honestly, let's just bring back class systems, village feudalism, and primogeniture, I don't care at this point.

I was thinking more along the lines of picking up the clarinet again.

Arguably less annoying to listen to than politicians, but you have to understand that that's a rather low bar.
