    Well believe me u are wrong. Though i could easily be interested in your political opinions and even though keep the conversation civilized. The x franchise has a lot to do with politics. This conversation is not a stretch.

    Politics should not be a taboo

    Lets keep this simple:

    Angel: would vote primarily for no taxes on the rich
    Psylocke: would vote for lowering the age of consent
    Cyclops: would vote for more fundings for abortion clinics
    Storm: would unironically vote Trump
    Rogue: never registered to vote because she can't read

    Depends on the spectrum. Liberals can be center of left. As in the American social democracy.

    I’m a center left brazilian, btw

    American Liberals believe that their political leanings are center of left but they’d be considered Republicans like 20 years ago. But what was considered centrist got pulled further to the right over the years.

    To be fair, the person who reimagined “liberalism” as a centre left position was FDR. And somewhat ironically, Bill Clinton & Friends started using “progressive” to distance themselves from liberals, even though these days the left has claimed the use of progressive.

    Now a days I dont even know. I want to say socialist of some type. They share all the benefits of Krakoa. Work is voluntary it seems so they are nowhere close to communism. The "state" which is the quiet council is very far from being authoritarian. Yet they have no money and dont believe in land rights which makes them very far from libertarians.

    They are unique and cannot be placed in a category.
    I only continue to read X-books because I don't spend any money on it.

    And now everyone using “leftist” “progressive” “liberal” are so incredibly vague about what they represent and stand for. Sad, isn’t it?
