[wimp]

Ancestral liberal Republican in his youth. While his first vote was for LBJ over Goldwater in 1964, he subsequently voted for Nixon twice, Ford, Anderson, and Reagan in '84 before switching over to the Democrats starting with Dukakis. Nowadays a centre-left Democrat on most issues, though he is antiwar and civil libertarian. Voted for Buttigieg in the primaries.

So... I guess voted Cruz in the 2016 primaries and Trump in both general elections. Thinks Democrats are PC-loving liberal destructivists.

Centre-right Republican. Doesn't really like Trump but will vote for him due to abortion and religious freedom issues.

This guy is an enigma, I could easily see him being anywhere from a libertarian to a socialist to an anarchist. High school drop out and atheist are really throwing me for a loop since they tend to correlate away from each other.

I'm gonna say he's an Obama-abstain-Biden voter. Generally pretty libertarianish, wants to be left alone by the government, but doesn't oppose welfare programs.

Not necessarily-people with extremely low levels of income and education aren't necessarily the most religiously devout people who are often more middle class.

Mung Beans's is H.P. Lovecraft no?

I picked Lovecraft because he wrote a surprising amount on politics in his letters. While he is infamous for his racism nowadays, he actually moved to the left late in his life in response to the Depression and became an enthusiastic supporter of FDR as well as a non-Marxist socialist with certain authoritarian tendencies. Lovecraft would have been an interesting member of this forum to say the least.

It's Jean Brodie, from The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. It's a bit of a cheat because she lived in the 1930s, but she was a rather vile fascist sympathizer.
