Pretty much all of us started as kids on Neopets but we're all adults now and have changed in too many ways to count, so I was curious how many people have developed and/or changed their political ideologies and beliefs over time. I'd appreciate any information that would help explain your position and since I'm specifically referring to American politics as far as the political spectrum goes, I would appreciate it all the more if you provided more context for your view on your own country.
I didn't start this topic in the debate zone because I don't want to start a flamewar but welp, if administrators feel this could go down a different route then feel free to move it.
As for my own views I've been a far leftist my entire life, even before I consciously started developing my own political views. I look up to Bernie Sanders, AOC and Ilhan Omar as the bright lights of the next generation. Hopefully Bernie doesn't kick the bucket too soon or I'd have to edit this post.

This is a weird question that doesn't seem related to neopets idk

Started out as a far leftist, as I grew up and started understanding things better I realized the reality of the country I live in and started leaning center-right to "just right" (lmao), but I still believe that neither side should be in power for more than a couple terms
My Neopets political view?
We musn't let the Darigans come back into power at all either. At this rate, Moltara controls most of the fuel needed to keep the planet alive and we must reach a diplomatic agreement with them before they realize the power they have. Thankfully for us though, there true power is blind to their leaders due to their rather horrendous AC team.
In conclusion, for the greater good of Neopia, it is my belief that we should gain wisdom from the gnorbus up in Shenkuu and techos down at Mystery Island and continue to use the UN (United Neopia) as our one source of political power

Grew up in a very liberal household. Once I started to research stuff on my own, I realized a lot of the stuff my parents said was bullshit. I lean more centre-right now.
Yikes I mean I grew up in a very diverse area so I was probably a "liberal" growing up but now I'm an incredibly left communist. Creepy to see how many of y'all went the other way.
also this definitely doesn't go in the Neopets chat
Hard left. Ready for the revolution.

When I was young my father taught me to be a leftist, but I grew up as a centrist. I was really interested in learning about politics and I used to tell my family that I would become a political when I'd become an adult. When I was about 18yr I started reading about economics and felt in love with Milton Friedman, Hayek, Mises and other libertarian economists...it changed my views about everything. I even joined Students For Liberty that time. Nowadays I have some conservative points of views about somethings, and libertarian about others and don't want to join politics anymore lol.

I lean towards centre-right but tbh both the far left and far right are absolutely toxic.
