Triggered: Stories to make you mad.

No it is 100% inaccurate to say he doesn't reflect that. Criticizing insane leftist bullshit doesn't make you on the right.

And he's explained it, he thinks(correctly) the right gets whined about enough.

I just said criticising the far left doesn't make you on the right.

Simply saying you're on the left doesn't make you on the left either though.

You can only judge on the opinions he projects.

I would like to know which of his peers he thinks are putting out large amount of content only attacking the right though, if it is as he says, that there's already enough people doing that so that's why he doesn't do it.

I can think of Potholer54 (who mostly focuses on the scientific politics of the right), TMM, David Pakman.

I don't think they're as many or as prolific.

But you've admitted you haven't watched much of his stuff. Let me educate you: he does think the left pulls a lot of bullshit, but his overall opinions remain on the left. He lines up with them on nearly ever issue and I have yet to see someone prove otherwise.

And I guess it depends on who he considers "peers". CNN, MSNBC, etc talk mad shit about the right, they cover it enough.

This site says it has a more accurate and less neo-liberal bias compared to the politicalcompass test:

I'm taking it, now.

Me:

You are a left moderate social libertarian.
Left: 3.77, Libertarian: 2.74

I said this two posts ago.

Granted I haven't seen all his videos but have seen quite a lot

Educate me, though. Give me which left points he lines up with.

I just took that new test. Says I'm -2.93, -5.25

"You are a center-left social libertarian.
Left: 2.93, Libertarian: 5.25"

I call myself a social liberal which means: let people do what they want and do what they want with each other.

But they call me a social libertarian. That may be a more accurate statement.

He wants universal healthcare, is considering universal basic income, thinks individual rights to do as you please are more important such as gay rights, thinks regulations are necessary to keep evil companies from taking over and ruining the world, thinks taxes should be used and poor shouldn't be taxed to oblivion.

That's off the top of my head.

We largely line up, politically. But he's a bit more left than I am.

If the claim is his beliefs do not align with the left that burden of proof ain't on me, it never will be.

But I will say of all the policy issues he has discussed I've only usually agreed with him on free speech. I do not agree with him on immigration, guns, healthcare, etc.

If people want to bring forth policy issues they feel put him on the right I am open to it.

On the other hand, he doesn't agree with the far-left. thus he is "alt-right" as far as some are concerned.

I don't know all of his positions but I know he supports abortion and he likes regulations on businesses. Both of those are left-leaning positions.

Not sure what his position on gun control is. I do believe he supports strong borders but I may be wrong about that one.

Going by the logic hurled at Tim, is a right winger not conservative if they dedicate themselves to calling out the alt right?

Someone intelligent say yes.

Guys, the test I'm taking now has Republican vs. Democrat. It's awesome. I'll link it when done. It has a slider from left to right. It's awesome.

I will honor the results of the test, until you disagree with me on a subject. Then they are null and void.

If you ignore what he says in his content and are all around not very bright, yeah you would think he is on the right.

Tim Pool disagrees with you:

Going by his content or at least who he pretends to be, he's Right and not just a little nudge.

Take this test! It's awesome. It may be the best US-Centric test, yet:

According to rob, these are "Right" stances. so you must be Alt-lite if not a full blown Alt-Righter.

You're trolling cuz you can't legitimately argue he's on the right lol. Good stuff.

Well, I just took two different quizzes. Both of them are supposed to be much better than any other out there.

And they both show me with a slight left lean and a moderate libertarian lean.

Time Pool is a bit more left than I am with his taxes stuff (I don't like progressive taxes: FairTax, man!)

So it doesn't matter what anyone says or who they are trying to trigger by saying it: Pool is more of a left leaning democrat than I am.

Robtard, Silent Master, Surtur, everyone:

Take the Republican vs. Democrat quiz.

Yes, I'm trolling you with Pool's own comment on his own politics. Brilliant, Surt. Just brilliant.
