People that claim themselves to be centrists in this economy, are either plain stupid or republicunts in disguise.

Yes, they are not mutually exclusive.

It's possible to be left in one area, and right in another. Someone could be left economically, but not necessarily socially.

I think it’s more common that people claim to be fiscally conservative and socially liberal.

[–] MegaUltraChicken@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah that's been my experience. It's a stupid position that's logically inconsistent, but those people definitely exist.

I will never understand people that claim to be "fiscally conservative" and vote R.

[–] HardlightCereal@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm fiscally conservative and I vote greens. I want there to still be an economy in 100 years!

(Also I'm australian and would really like to go back to the communist way of doing things. This capitalism fad is dangerous.)

Is it? That's not been my experience, but I guess that would depend on the group of people you happen to interact with.
