r/tuesday This lady's not for turning Dec 02 '24

Semi-Weekly Discussion Thread - December 2, 2024

INTRODUCTION

/r/tuesday is a political discussion sub for the right side of the political spectrum - from the center to the traditional/standard right (but not alt-right!) However, we're going for a big tent approach and welcome anyone with nuanced and non-standard views. We encourage dissents and discourse as long as it is accompanied with facts and evidence and is done in good faith and in a polite and respectful manner.

PURPOSE OF THE DISCUSSION THREAD

Like in r/neoliberal and r/neoconnwo, you can talk about anything you want in the Discussion Thread. So, socialize with other people, talk about politics and conservatism, tell us about your day, shitpost or literally anything under the sun. In the DT, rules such as "stay on topic" and "no Shitposting/Memes/Politician-focused comments" don't apply.

It is my hope that we can foster a sense of community through the Discussion Thread.

IMAGE FLAIRS

r/Tuesday will reward image flairs to people who write an effort post or an OC text post on certain subjects. It could be about philosophy, politics, economics, etc... Available image flairs can be seen here. If you have any special requests for specific flairs, please message the mods!

The list of previous effort posts can be found here

Honest question. I am flaired a left voter, but was a registered Republican until Trump rose to power. I have voted Democratic ever since, but I feel it's more the party moved right than I significantly moved left. I understand the weight of personal responsibility and fiscal conservatism. I still wish for a return to civil discourse and the end of MAGA in the party and would vote for a Republican if they were not part of that movement and their policy largely aligned with my beliefs. Is my left flair correct or should I change it to Right?

For this sub, I would say it's roughly a question of whether you'd vote for Mitt Romney or if you'd vote for Biden (on domestic policy and ignoring age)
