Hi. I'm a progressive thinker interested in ideas and methods of developing a world in which there is as little suffering as possible.
My thinking style is a little bit futurist, a little bit hippie, and very pragmatic. I'm not into pie-in-the-sky ideas. I want to talk about actions that can be implemented to make change happen in time to stop what's coming (a terrible eco-dystopia).
I'm 50. I find most of the internet to be a childish & boring place. Most memes aren't funny. Most people that think they're comedians aren't funny either. I'd rather have a serious conversation.
I'm a cis white male. I believe in dignity and respect for all people, except conservatives.
I also believe that we need to take more direct action to make change. I think the most important conversation we should be having is akin to the trolley dilemma, except one track has american conservatives on it, and the other track has the entirety of humanity and all the other forms of innocent plant and animal life on it.
I'm pretty big into military tactics because I think this is the most direct method for change.
Do I belong here?
I might not really be the best person to answer this, but I'll give it a go.
Whether or not you belong here really depends entirely on you and your willingness to expand your views.
You seem a bit focused on conservatives, which is fine as a baseline. Certainly they are a problem. But if that is where your view of the problems of the world start and stop that's a bit limited. If you do plan on spending much time on hexbear, realize that we not only have problems with conservatives, but also liberals who do everything in their power to maintain the status quo.
More importantly we also feel the need for society to move beyond capitalism towards socialism. If that seems like a "pie in the sky" idea, then this probably isn't the place for you. And I say that because often time liberals who say they are pragmatic, a word which you use to describe yourself, often feel that way about socialist revolution and governance.
On the flipside you do speak of direct action, so there's that.
Also you should realize this is an intersectional space. There can be no liberation without the liberation of all oppressed people. Whether that oppression is due to their class, race, neurodiversity, sex, and/or sexuality.
If I have misunderstood anything you have said, apologies. Like I said I'm probably not the best at this sort of thing.
Edit: Aaaand you got banned lmao. Putting the most important part in bold
