I'm generally a very politically conservative person (gun-loving murrican). I have noticed that EVE seems to be filled to the brim with people that lean toward the left, to put it mildly; (I feel like almost everyone is some kind of frankenstein combination of Carl Marx, Bill Maher, and Hillary Clinton) .

How do i go about finding a group of people to fly with, that share my outlook on life?

Lol is this foreal?

Edit: Go to the main trade hubs and watch local. Eventually you'll see someone spouting off who wants to kill everyone infected with ebola and put walls around our country.

I just...are you serious?

Don't get me wrong, I think that all hardcore leftists have lost their mind (the same as all on the far right), but do you really expect this to end well?

Vocal minority I think.

In general, I find the bulk of eve players to be regular, normal people; with fairly central views and a lot of cultural diversity.

So, I don't think you'll find it too hard to find like-minded people to fly with.

See my sig too. We are mostly AU and EU tz, but more US players are joining too. You are more than welcome to come fly with us (no pressure to join Corp, just come fly with us any time you like).

Can't help you, statist.
I only hang out with libertarians.

Get a better outlook on life.


Also, who the **** are you flying with? Most of the people I run into are radical right-wing fascist ****-tards.


Wanna trade people?

libertarians are, by definition, conservative.

it's impossible to be a left leaning libertarian, since leftists generally don't allow for freedom, unless it's state approved freedom.

Eh, if guns are your big thing, you're welcome to fly with me. I'll happily discuss handgun calibers, lever and bolt action vs. semi-automatic rifles, and justifications for self defense of any firearm. Not to mention proper tools for various hunting situations.

Hit me up with an Eve mail. Keep in mind I'm a pretty hardcore Libertarian and in almost any case I'll argue from an anarchist point of view.

Cheers.

I wasn't going to go this route, until you started talking out of your ass.

Both sides are guilty of wanting to snuff individual freedom; they just aim their animosity at different groups of people.
Both sides have a nasty habit of supporting corporations that are involved in shady ****; they just offer their support to different corporations.
Both sides have absolutely no quarrel with snuffing out religious expression; they just target different groups.
Both sides **** away money on dead end pet projects; they just like to waste your labor on different things.
Both sides have supported senseless wars that have killed more innocent bystanders than actual combatants.

What was that you were saying again, Rush?

Changing your mind might help.

Just sayin'. If you can't find other assholes to fly with, maybe stop being an *******?

Why do I suspect there would be permanent war decs if someone in EVE started the "Fox News Corp"?

As a centrist, I suspect this is a troll thread posted with the intention of getting a reaction from left-wing leaning people, else the thinly veiled insult you gave them in the OP is irrelevant and without purpose.

They aren't smart enough to formulate the words. But they regularly hurl their feces and semen at anyone who doesn't agree with them. Much like the tardfloggers that claim to be on the left.
