ballot. The names are followed by D, R, and LP. But beware!

I've long heard that the American left wing is slightly to the right
of most European conservatives, so that what are internationally
recognized as moderate or centrist policies, are seen in America as
extreme left.
"We believe the identification of 'L' for Libertarian has long
been used in Virginia and voters understand that 'L' officially
represents a vote for the Libertarian Party," Joe Paschal, the
chair of the Libertarian Party of Virginia, wrote in response.

This is pretty much the case, although the American right has
been drifting farther and farther right, to the point where many
of the policies promoted by Ronald Reagan are now seen as
leftist. It is very strange. --scott

According to sources I trust, the Tory party hasn't had a prime
minister since the Duke of Wellington in 1834. But then the Peel
principles of policing, which date to the same decade, are way too far
left for any present-day police force in the US to accept. ("What do
you mean we can't randomly kill people and steal all their stuff?")
Speaking of which, that candidate's brother, a school teacher, was
murdered by cops in Virginia. Of course the killing was ruled
justified, on the grounds that the cops were cops, and were, as usual,
in fear for their lives. What bravery is to soldiers, cowardice is to
cops. It's their universal get-out-of-jail-free card. I'm surprised
they don't give out medals for Conspicuous Cowardice in the Presence
of the Enemy. The enemy of course being anyone they choose to kill
because they were in fear for their lives. "He moved his hand. He
might have been reaching for a weapon. So out of an abundance of
caution, I shot him ten times then pressed on his windpipe until a
medic confirmed that he was safe (i.e. dead)."

of most European conservatives, so that what are internationally

Does that include the Liberation Party's position of slavery
reparations? So what if all the victims and all the perpetrators are
long dead? They still have a few living grandchildren, or at least >great-grandchildren. If the party doesn't also favor giving all the
land back to the Indi^H^H^H Native Americans, maybe that's because
they have more black members than Native American members.
Do lefties in England favor giving all the land there back to the Celts?

the ballot this year? No Libertarian candidates at all for any office
on my district's ballot.
I voted straight "none of the above." Write-in, of course, since NOTA
is never given as an option. I only bothered to vote becuase there's
also a bond issue. (I voted early, lest Republicans once again get in
line without masks to intimidate non-Republican voters out of voting,
as they did last year.)

Many descendants of black slaves are also descendants of white
rapists. Should they be giving or receiving reparations?

Yes to both. With 156 years of compound interest, each of them owes
himself or herself at least ten million dollars. The government will
charge each such transaction a modest 5% processing fee.

It's been estimated that there are 16 million descendants of Genghis
Khan. They owe reparations, or are owed them, or both.
