Poll is most of the gamespot community neoliberal? (23 votes)

yes 26%
no 74%

From what I have seen I would say yes. The majority of people who post in OT who talk about politics and economics love the Austrian school of economics, Fredrick Hayek, Milton Friedman, Ludwig von Mises, Murray Rothbard, Ayn Rand, etc.

seemingly fair if you never know how the "Legislative" side of the community actually worked,I admire yours as a minority in authority strength,OP. gotta work hard to see where the flaw is.don't blame me for all this,I am an Independent myself.

look around you,there are so many people that has a distinctive political voice,but only a handful of them are neoliberals(I ain't tellin' you who)

The people mocking me clearly have not had a serious political/economic discussion on gamespot. That or they only read their own posts.

off-topic insinuates that ANY topic that does not fit in the other forum sections should go here.

I'm more center. I've voted Democrat before when I felt like it's more beneficial. But, everything else equal, I'd vote Republican. That seems to reflect on the neighborhood I live in as well.

I don't like those too far at the fringes whether they're Left or Right.

I would describe myself as a liberal. In the classical sense.

I like doing these kind of quizzes but this one in particular has become worst now that it doesn't include a "neither agree or disagree" or whatever was the down the middle option.

Is this a joke post? Most people here are "liberal" in the American sense.

Only weirdos and College freshman like Hayek and Rand et al

Can't say I've seen people talk about the Austrian school of economics in these boards. Or, at the very least, done so sensibly without jumping to ridiculous conclusions about their arguments/ideas and/or just writing them off completely.

Considering the amount of times you've deleted my posts because of your own personal shoulder chip, the boot fits.

I don't need to, mate, Synthia's spoken to you about this nonsense already, and I expect now that I've contacted her about repeat performances, she will again.

Be a man, stop deleting my posts, it'd be appreciated.

so clearly,does neoliberalism can solve all the trouble? NO AND 1 IN A TRILLION CHANCES ARE YES!

see the diversity of politics,some sits can only be solved through the power of the neoliberalists,most don't. Independent politician like me would always think through the matter of the people,they want real anti-racism? I will give them literal justice(I will directly respond to them). do they let terrorists invade their influence? no,kill them! they deserve it.

For example, I don't like hipsters and SJW's, but that does not mean I hate freedom and equality. I just don't go around saying: "hurr durr, institutions are evil!" or "all conspiracy theories are indisputably true and factual" or "(insert celebrity here) is my hero/heroine and I agree wholeheartedly with everything he/she says!"

Neoliberal? Just call them what they are, modern day libertarians. And I'd say most aren't like that thankfully.
