Truth has a liberal bias, thus, most regular internet users, with access to the vast amount of information out there, are liberal.
Anarchism.

I don't like the idea of people holding themselves to one political arc or the other - you need to be able to appreciate changing values and mixed ideas when judging society or politics. This idea of 'you're either RIGHT or you're LEFT' is utter bullshit of the highest order, most people have mixed views about everything. Though admittedly I am left-leaning (Social welfare, universal healthcare, mixed economies, etc) I think of myself as centre-left.
liberal
Liberal, BITCH!

Yeah, I don't really agree with sides but I am just curios.
Fast Thread.
I'm a middle guy, even though people hate when you take that side in politics, especially my Social Science teacher. I can say that I find quite a few things that I disagree with strongly on both sides. If I had to pick a side though I guess Liberal, even though I hate a lot of liberals that I know in person.

Liberal, but I'm in favor of some conservative ideas.
None.
I have some conservative views and some liberal views.
Mostly liberal, but I have a few conservative ideas.
I'm mostly social liberal, but I share a lot of fiscal conservative ideals.
Pretty moderate. More liberal than conservative, maybe, but not by much. My country's government is pretty incompetent, though, so it doesn't really matter.

Pretty much a mixture of the two concepts.

As American politics defines it I'm more of a conservative. In reality however I am a liberal. Voted conservative anyways.
Economically, Liberal/left. Socially, liberal/left Democratic socialist here. meaning: collective ownership, free choices in life, antimaterialism
Classical Liberal, or as the modern day calls me, Libertarian. Also, line politics is aged and biased, use the diamond or square model.
I have liberal views but I think mainstream liberalism in American politics takes the wrong stances on a few specific issues or ignore issues they shouldn't, and for some reason those stances end up as being conservative.
progressive
Smart people are independent and vote for those based on their promises and track record in politics.
