What do yall call yourselves when people ask what your political beliefs are?

I usually say libertarian when a right winger asks, bernie democrat when a leftwing person asks. Saves me from brain damage when someone attempts to talk about politics with me.

I try to talk around it usually.

Depends who I'm talking to. Around friends, family, or strangers I'm open about my views. But I'm pretty worried about blacklisting, so I avoid discussing at work.

I very rarely am truly open about my views. Usually I'll just dodge the question. However, when I do answer it, I call myself a Marxist. It's not vague but it usually doesn't spiral out of control.

socialist

I straight up say I'm an ancom lol

If we are already talking about a political problem (say hunger) I start off slow with discussing profitability, and food production. I start to slowly drop hints about my standing until someone openly asks if I'm a red, which I answer with a "well if wanting X for all humans" or conversely "if I believe X is a human right" and close with the ambiguous "then I guess that makes me a Communist".

when my marxist leninist 2D yandere waifu asks, I tell her nazbol

I've literally told people I'm a conservative

I always answer Stalinist (not because It's a real thing, but because people understand what kind of red I am).
Truth is that I'm just a run of the mill reactionary who wants the soviet union, Warsaw pact and other socialist countries back and cares about marxism just because those countries cared about it.
Basically the "Lenin>Marx" meme is true in my case.
Also they had no inerenth flaws, I just want them back with a couple of reforms (that would have happen anyway if Gorby didn't fucked up) or even without them tbh.

Maoist-Sakaiist

Sakaiist as in the Settlers guy?

I say left wing nationalist/S.trasserbro when a fascist asks.

I say patriotic socdem when a liberal or Sargonite-Centrist asks.

I say fucking kill yourself when an AnCap or Lolbert asks.

I say Marxist-Leninist when another leftist asks.

I just tell whomever that I don't concern myself with politics

Socialist


why?

Communist.

Usually "socialist" and/or "Marxist". If the person asking is also a leftist or I'm feeling brave I'll say "communist".

If I am comfortable with them I'll usually just say communist, but if I'm not I go for "probably communist" or just socialist.

I shout NAZBOL GANG really loud and immediately punch the person in the face and run away.

Is it legal for a employer to ask a political affiliation during the job interview? US fag here and the only things I know is not to be discussed is relationship status, what foreign nationality one is from, any arrests one may have, what race or creed you are, anything that relates to one having a disability, and discussing any medical problems or disabilities or your relatives or bunk buddies with the acception of thèse who are employed at the company.
I heard of the meme "Are you or have you ever been apart of or affiliated with the communist party." is that part of the interview/written job contract and why is it not illegal to bring up questions about political affiliation in job contracts yet?
Fear of blacklisting is a legitimate concern.

i don't talk about politics with people i don't know and those who know me also know my views. i'm not a preacher and influencer type person and i get easily annoyed by stupid people and preachers, even if they might be fellow commies. t. intj

Political affiliation is not a protected class in the U.S. so yeah, a private employer can ask that.

Unlikely (and I believe prohibited to ask) for government jobs though. Actually unlikely for private jobs too really. Maybe some local businessman doesn't want any libs or commies in his shop but I've never been asked that.

I used to just say I was a Leftist if I was around normies and a Marxist if I was around more knowledgeable people and then go into specifics throughout the conversation as necessary

I just don't talk politics with anyone IRL anymore because the USA is doomed toilet that will need 100 years of suffering before anyone understands anything

I straight up tell them I'm a socialist
If they get triggered epic style because of my political beliefs then fuck it they deserve to be triggered

I just say I'm an anarchist, a socialist or lib-soc. It depends on the crowd.

This guy gets it.

-Usually just socialist
-Revolutionary socialist or radical socialist, when the person confuse me with a socdem.
-Libertarian socialist when the person confuse me with a ML.

National-Socialist

Enjoy getting fired and never getting along with normal people

Being a communist is unacceptable in my country, and being a socialist is unacceptable in my bourgie-ass town. I can openly call myself a socialist when I'm in the city though, but my town is elitist af, I will be unable to afford even the cheapest housing here if I want to live on my own, you can only really move here if you have two avarage/above avareg incomes at age 30+.

I just say socialist, but the best case scenario is avoiding the question alltogether.

The question usually revolves around electoral politics so I either say I don't really care for parliamentarism or I'll just say the furthest left socially acceptable party "but I don't really agree with much of their program." In the first case it may lead to deeper discussion of the nature of bourgeois democracy, in the second we can talk about what's wrong with the party and express some more radical opinions without having to put a label on them.

I will either say communist, marxist, or the old "I support a planned economy and direct democracy".

What's interesting to me is that whenever you argue with a liberal they'll start with the old "your anti-democratic and support dictatorship", but as soon as you start suggesting more radically democratic policies like workplace democracy, industrial democracy, direct legislation by the citizenry without representation etc. they'll invariably argue against you along some neolib technocrat line. They like the word democracy, they hate its actuality.

I think there's some study out there about how self-described centrists in a dozen countries were the least supportive of democracy in many different forms though they love the word "democracy." Even the radical right was more democratic although they will use it to grind minorities into the dust.

The one exception was Germany I believe where the far right was just "nah we straight-up just want a Fuhrer."

No. We are two different posters. Lol. I just used the armchair symbol to shit post in another thread and then forgot to remove it. What in the fuck is a Sakaiist?

Same here, except when out with colleagues, I simply say that I have leftist tendencies, but my power level seems to be so high they might suspect me. Browsing Zig Forums at work with occasional red flag with hammer and sickle or stalin's face flashing on my monitor surely isn't helping me to hide my power level.

Sometimes, when I want to turn discussion into out and avoid arguing, I simply say:

I just usually call myself social democrat.

Leninist.

Lol. Saying anything against capitalism basically equals coming out as a Socialist for most people.

I do not think anyone ever called me "socialist". If someone would, I would correct him and call myself either "communist" or "marxist".

One when I was drunk at party, I spilled some spaghetty, which I tried to save by short speech of seizing the means of alcohol production. I was called "communist" by a girl. Everyone laughed. Then she called me "bolshevik", everyone was laughing more. Then she called me "marxist", after which everyone burst into laugh even more. When she saw how confused I am, she explained "marxists are much worse than bolsheviks".

I am trying to avoid talking about politics with normies since then, and when I do, I usually follow statements such as "you have every right to ask for bigger pay, you wouldn't have job if you wouldn't earn your boss much more than you produce" with "that's what marxist propaganda teaches us".They seem to be a little confused when I suggest that "marxism = your rational self interest", but I hope that my occasional edginess is helping classpill fellow proles.

fucking hell

"Libertarian socialist" if I want to appease them and "cybernetic communist" if I want to provoke them. If you try to avoid the conversation you're a useless piece of shit.

This is hell on earth

Can you please write more rage porn?

I just say communist. I have to put up with boomer speeches about "hoomun nacher" that way but I just smile and go back to my business after they're done ranting. My friends and roommates are supportive, family not so much.

Depends on whether I'm willing to argue or not.
"Marxist-Leninist" if I am and "That's personal/I don't deal with politics" otherwise.

Anarchist.

It's important to teach as many as you can about it. They've been lied to all their lives and we need to set the record straight. Let them try to vote for a progressive wave, or make a third party work, but let them know we exist too.

And this. You can't tell the rich people shit, a general manager or the like.

Communist. If it triggers people I'll have a debate on my hands which I (almost) always enjoy.

I just say communist/socialist these days, don't get too specific when it comes to tendency since I don't know what the fuck I believe in anymore. Usually talk about how capitalism would effect ones daily life negatively like getting banned on social media/imageboards/forums for example

I live in Portland, so I can just say I'm a socialist without any issue, at worst an eye roll from a resigned liberal

My physics professor worked for a oil company that had that in the contract. He said they were right of Mussolini. I guess since it is not revelent to the job the job applicant can choose not to answer. (or choose to answer because one can be apart of a communist party that is not called the communist party depending on the question.)

I don't fit any ideology as far as I am aware but maybe I don't know enough. I just talk about individual subjects if they want.

I'm not, I'm probably more extroverted than what I perceive myself.

I call myself progressive with right wingers. When i'm with socdems i just go all out and say i'm a leninist.

As I believe in gender equality, biological science, socio-economic fairness, seizing the means of production and racial equality I describe myself as an anti-feminist.

I usually call myself a centrist. If they ask to specify stance further then I answer something like this: You know there there two viewpoints people take to view the world. First is being supportive of capitalism and the second is wanting to arrange a class genocide for the bourgeoisie. I usually take the middle road and only propose gulag for them.

but seriously usually 'National Primitivist' or 'National Communist' will do.

Socialist

ML

Stalinist

everyone who replies with a label rather than an explanation is a moron who doesn't know how to talk about politics and do agitprop

if you want a quick rundown this syndicalist chick asked if i was a leftist and then gave me shit about how the soviet union deserved to get nuked because they weren't idpol enough and then said something about how "tankies try to act like they don't have states they just call them communes and shit". i don't think she actually understands anything about politics since her whole ideological basis is just "get rid of the state so everyone has personal freedom durr", and she must think communism = only ML because she treats it like this huge boogeyman despite being "anti-capitalist" (also worth mentioning she keeps trying to get me to join shit like Socialist Alternative and ANTIFA to "bash the fash xd").

she's in my music class and despite trying to give me shit whenever possible she want's me to join her band and proposed something like pic related as an album cover (this is not a joke i wish it was). also worth mentioning that she plays the ukelele and just talks about depression and muh suicide.

ask her if she knows that the SU in its entire history never actively persecuted homosexuals and had put less of them on trial than post war west germany alone from '45 to the '90 and that it was east germany who always was ahead by at least a decade to the west in legalizing homosexuality, even though it supposedly was just a "soviet colony", while the liberal western democracy from Bonn had the police create "pink lists" to categorize and harrass homosexuals

oh god I know someone exactly like that

sounds like she wants the dick comrade

i had similar thoughts, but more in the direction of "she wants to cut it off and make you a cute girl that's all about rainbows and being nice"

well she's supposedly already in a relationship (despite me never asking her in the first place),

she's gotta focus on cutting hers off before mine

kinda saw that coming, but guess it doesn't take much to figure that out
are you trying to push her away from that liberal BS? seems like she's in it for the liberal feel good lifestyle, sometimes you can get through this by pushing her on things she could get genuine hatred for
like imperialist bombs killing people indiscriminately of their identity when it's for the profits of the corporations etc.

i can already tell she wont take in anything i say, as i've already tried and it went through one ear and out the other.

don't reason with anarchists, they're only open for emotional approaches

I say that I am a progressive in support of Nordic Capitalism. It's not exactly a lie because if nothing else we'd have a overall better commons. It's a pragmatic approach.

But secretly, I'm hoping for a post-capitalist world. Gotta hide that power level, nah sayin'?
