We got guys like Terthna, but by sheer comparison, he can’t be considered a Lefty
I don't really consider him one at all. He is a moderate left of centre type.

Welcome aboard, the more the merrier. The site should be diverse, too bad we can't retain some of the lefties to keep us honest and sharpen our debate skills...but it seems many of them can't stand the heat and thus flee the kitchen,
therre's probably going to be baggage for a while. Just the nature of the beast.
Hopefully we can overcome this, get a diverse as possible user base. Probably going to tend right of centre, but that is probably a healthy equilibrium, if a board is diverse and mostly sane it should end up somewhere there about.
Basically, @Terthna is a Liberal, not a "Libtard".Problem is, I think Unhappy Anchovy was sort of making the "point" that even if we've got LGBT, "POC", differing religions and philosophies and even Liberals
Most of us all have in common in the end being pretty Anti-SJW or Anti-Far Left-Insanity, which guys like him would essentially cover up and downplay or even reject existing at all
Terthna's a Liberal and believes in there being at least SOME social security programs and all, but he doesn't like SJW's, so therefore he's NOT a "Liberal" anymore or too close to this "Right of Centre"
And let's face it, the actual SJW or "PC" guys we get are constantly mocking and gaslighting and accusing us of stuff like Realm, HistoryMinor, 2BDamned, Ioseb/Comrade Cloud etc
Huh, so this is a place. I literally had no idea this existed until it was just recently mentioned in a thread at SB. But that's just because I like, never actually talk to people.
I'm usually not one for splinter boards, and I'm not banned from SB (yet), but what with being infracted for arguing that Trump did not flat out "refuse to condemn white supremacists" and told that I can't say that in good faith, maybe it's time for a change of scenery
So hi
Always nice to have new people, welcome.

Thanks new fren!
Welcome!I wouldn't say I'm this site's intended audience, but I'm here nonetheless because challenging your assumptions is the only way to learn. And if there's one thing I believe in, it's learning.
Politically, I'm a pro-capitalist social liberal, but at the end of the day I see capitalism as a means of maximizing human achievement, not as an end in itself.
I'm a socially liberal fiscal moderate (maybe leaning right) and I fit in fine here.I wouldn't say I'm this site's intended audience, but I'm here nonetheless because challenging your assumptions is the only way to learn. And if there's one thing I believe in, it's learning.

The "yet" made me LOL.I'm not banned from SB (yet)
That's good! We recommend and enjoy anybody whiling to help expand our AH section.Hello everyone. I was looking for alternatives to AH.com (where I'd stopped posting entirely and started lurking a couple years ago) and saw a link to this forum. Excited just to be able to talk alternate history again without having to worry about overbearing moderation and inane, inconsistently enforced rules.
