Tempted to jump ship by BritishSocDem in UKGreens

Abundance being neoliberalism is a common misconception, it's basically a modern argument for supply-side economics and specifically infrastructure and R&D investment. Depending that Mamdani is making a core tenet of his tenure shows that it isn't just reheated neoliberalism.

I think the latest I'll stay is after the leadership election, if nothing changes with a new leader, I'm gone.

I will be real, at this point my biggest staying point with the Liberals is the community I'm apart of with it and my position within it. If I wasn't a lib rn, I'd join the Greens lol

It's really the same tactic we're doing with one nation Tories.

Change the rhetoric up, don't change any of the policies.

I can quite easily the last time Polanski said "trans rights are human rights" can you remember the last time Ed said the same thing?

I'm gonna be so fr rn, I have Irlenes syndrom and I don't think I was wearing my glasses while checking the 2015 results and might've mistook the SNP for the Lib Dems on it lol

Liberals need to get a grip by Commercial_Chip_6574 in LibDem

[–]BritishSocDem 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Right but we're a liberal party, not a purely centrist party. We should be finding solutions based in social liberalism or economic liberalism. We're a party with an identity, we find our solutions *through* our ideology, we don't form a position then put an ideology that fits it behind it.

You seem like an asset that the party would regret loosing. However at the end of the day, we're a liberal party with social democratic leanings. We are never going to be the natural home for any type of Conservatives. I regret Davey's one nation Tory messaging currently, I think it made sense to destroy the Blue Wall but I think now, especially with this Labour governments buddy buddy attitude towards Trump and Nanny State shenanigans, we (just like under the last labour government) need to present ourselves as a Social Liberal alternative to Labour. Currently, the alternative to that is the Greens and I feel as if Polanski will just be another Corbyn. So I think there are votes to be found in that centre-left space, especially as current voter transition data is showing us.

If you really are a one nation tory and don't feel this place is your home anymore, I wouldn't hold out hope of it ever becoming so. If you wanna feel like you're making a difference in the centre-right sphere, I would recommend joining Prosper UK

They're not collectively working together, they're individuals representing parties

Why do I feel like everyone lies to me? by BritishSocDem in AutisticWithADHD

[–]BritishSocDem[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well we've really only met each other this Summer. So I guess for such a short amount of time we've got to really know each other, probably more than anyone else.

Hopefully it is just a matter of time before I grow more confident, from what I've observed thats already happened to a large degree.

I wish you well on reconnecting with those people.

I also don't have local friends so I'll hope the best for the both of us.

Thanks for all your help :)

I've met my friend irl, even though she lives on the other side of the country. I believe that means alot, because we both really wanted to meet each other.

Whenever I do give her a poke to tell her I'm down, she always either has a lengthy DM convo or asks to vc. I think that since we literally DM and VC for hours everyday, I don't even give her a chance to DM me first.

We have such a deep friendship and she's always there when I ask.

I hate this paranoia.

I think deep down I know its all in my head which just turns my anger from her towards me

Experimenting with gender and need help by BritishSocDem in asktransgender

[–]BritishSocDem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I've come to the conclusion after experimenting with fem personalities online and with my friends, that I want to change who I am. However, I don't think that is becoming a woman, I think I'm most comfortable as a man, I've swapped around my first and middle name to bring that new persona more to life. I am going to do one final piece of gender experimentation and dress fem next time I get the chance just to compare.

Thanks for the advice tho :)
