The Conspiracies community is obviously the most politically diverse one, both on Reddit and on Win.
/r/conspiracy and c/conspiracies are the two last places in the world where rightists and leftists have civilized discussions and learn from eachother. I am a traditionalist Conservative who scores right-wing both on the social and the economical axis. I'm religious, a great fan of Donald Trump and genuinely believe that there is a secret plan (Q) to save America and the whole world. Therefore, I spend most of my time on Patriots and Great Awakening. I realized that Trump is the good one in 2016, when I began noticing how biased the MSM was and what unfair advantage Hillary had.
Knowing that filter bubbles are dangerous no matter where you stand politically, I frequently come to Conspiracy communities to have my worldview challenged and learn from those with different opinions.
The great thing about this forum is that while you might find your view of Donald Trump or your economical theory challenged by a leftie, we all agree on fundamental things like the existence of suppressed technologies or secret societies. I think that this open-mindedness and refusal to blindly believe official narratives unites us, at the same time filtering those out who fail to consider opposing opinions.
What's your ideology and why? Apart from c/Conspiracies, are you active on other Win forums? How did you arrive where you are now, did you change your political views? If yes, how did it happen? Did a key event make you realize that what you used to believe in is wrong?
My ideology is to avoid "chain" 'ideologies' and constantly try to make sure I'm not enveloping myself with my own bias, ignorance, and confidence, stuff like that. An honest and cautious search for truth seems to be one of the things I can generally support. I kind of suspect I'm just wired to hold 'truth' to a high value.
Jordan Peterson is a roll model for me, he's the one who said you don't really want an 'ideology'. Things are mostly extremely specific and individualized, and should be treated carefully. I thought about it, and it makes a lot of sense. It makes sense that you should avoid "chain" ideologies; You don't really want to enter the rabbit hole: "Oh this person has X ideology, therefore he must also believe ABCDEF etc.
I've been on ga.win a bit, I think Q is fascinating. There's so many different angles to interpret what's going on there. I've looked through and verified some of the solid Q proofs myself, and came to the conclusion that there is little doubt that Mike Pompeo and others are aware of, or are associated with Q in some manner. As long as people do not put all of their hope into the Q bucket, (or blindly follow), as a vessel for savior, I think it's healthy to have faith or belief in those kinds of things. I came to the conclusion that it would be wise to limit the amount of hope for Q and Trump being president in 2021, so that if it fizzles I do not become extremely demoralized.
Idk I'm just rambling and your post was a perfect excuse to let some thoughts go
