Forum Idealogical Opposites Whose Opinions You Respect

[Paul Kemp]

Who are some forum members who you completely disagree with ideologically but you respect their viewpoints and rational?

This is NOT supposed to be "people you disagree with but like" but rather someone whose posts you read and may think to yourself "I completely disagree but I understand and respect their opinion."

To be honest, I'm struggling right now but hoping to come up with a few soon.  

[Donerail]

Nathan is the immediate answer. Folks like Homely, Marokai, Bacon King, Beet, Trondheim, Redalgo, A Person, Scott,  and Tender come to mind. My PM score is pretty much opposite Miles' but I still respect his opinions. Opebo, TJ, Cathcon, and Yelnoc... Anvi, certainly. There are probably more.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Too many to name at once. Miles, Yelnoc, Bacon King, Redalgo, Scot, and Nathan come to mind.

[RogueBeaver]

Opposite: TNF, opebo, Peternerdman, Nathan, Antonio... to name a few.

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

Sjoyce, Clarence, Muon, Torie.

Most of the right-wingers who aren't trolls, except Pingvin, JCL, and Vosem.

[Goldwater]

Sjoyce (although he might not count, since we only really disagree on foreign policy), Homely, Marokai, Bacon King, Redalgo, Scott, Miles, Yelnoc, Nathan, Antonio... I'm sure there are more I'm forgetting.

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

A Person

Keystone Phil, Torie, and TJ are probably the big three if I don't count libertarians.

[LastVoter]

Clarence, muon, tj, torie.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Torie, Catchon, TJ, Clarence, Hagrid, RogueBeaver, muon, Sanchez, sjoyce, Ernest, NCYankee, and Simfan come to mind.

[Vosem]

Most of the right-wingers who aren't trolls, except Pingvin, JCL, and Vosem.

Because of my age?

In any case, most of the D-CT avatars come to mind. BK is great; so is Beet. In terms of people I like for entertainment value, Opebo deserves a slot.

[So rightwing that I broke the Political Compass!]

I really can't bring myself to feel respect for any of them. Sorry!

[Paul Kemp]

I really can't bring myself to feel respect for any of them. Sorry!

It's OK. I don't think any one respects you either.

I respect myself, bruz, as do many of my rightwing brethren. So, false!

[Antonio the Sixth]

Franzl, Fab, Tmth, Smid, Torie, NC Yankee, AHDuke, TJ, muon, Goldwater, RogueBeaver and a few others I'm probably forgetting.

[Sound + Vision]

I do always enjoy reading Ernest and anvi's posts. Not sure that I disagree with the latter often enough for him to be called an "ideological opposite", though.

[Warren 4 Secretary of Everything]

Oldies freak, Cathcon, Goldwater, Tmth, Hagrid, and JJ.

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

RB, Clarence, Goldwater, Cath, Gustaf, and Hagrid are the first to come to mind.

[HagridOfTheDeep]

Too many to list, but I find myself liking Marokai more and more as we continue to work alongside each other in Atlasia. Nathan, Snowstalker, Ben, Scott, and Adam Griffin are also up there. Probably forgetting people though—I hate these threads.

[Хahar 🤔]

Smid

[Hatman 🍁]

Smid

[Joe Biden 2020]

Smash, BK, and memphis for the left-wingers; Smid, Torie for the right-wingers.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

Tmthforu94, Clarence, Muon, Sjoyce, Goldwater, TJ, Keystone Phil when he isn't in "angry mode," I'm sure I'm forgetting some people. 

Torie wins first prize though!

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

Off the top of my head: Clarence, SJoyce, Sanchez, 20RP12, RogueBeaver, TJ (...sometimes ), Hagrid, Smid, Miles, Simfan, NCYankee, Jbrase, Tmth, and Torie.

[Miles]

Everyone who has already mentioned me. There are very few people on here who's opinions I don't hold in a high regard.

[k-onmmunist]

ghost_white is basically my right wing counterpart, but I also like and respect 20RP12, sjoycefla, Torie, Jbrase, Tmthforu, NCYankee, Gustaf and Smid.
