I always get David and SunRageAgainsttheMachine confused. However, were I to guess, I would have to say that David's specific version of neoconservatism incorporates a more communitarian aspect, and ties this into general lifestyle and morality questions as well.

Right-wing, nationalist Christian Democrat.

Left, of sorts. I don't know the particulars, but I assume an emphasis on gender issues.

Christian Right, which is rather ironic given his academic focus. There are some communitarian aspects to his worldview, but I am left to assume they are either a product of his religion, or a means by which he reconciles the normlessness of market mechanisms with his faith and social conservatism.

Politically very liberal in the standard, American, terminology. Personally, he has many idiosyncrasies, but I think politically he'd be standard left.

Worshiping an anti-labor McCarthyite.

Not too sure, but it manifests as a method of lazily assigning political labels. That, and center-left, I'd surmise.

Liberalism, in the broad internationalist sense of integration and human rights.

Hawkish center-right liberal. While Barry Goldwater is an obvious comparison, but others might be William F. Buckley, Rudy Giuliani, Joseph Lieberman, or Tom Ridge (broad array, but a few uniting characteristics).

Misanthropic, reactionary leftism. His hatred for life extends to his hatred for the living.

Hawkish right-liberal. Democracy, neoliberalism, and Americanism in terms of a governmental sense, though not necessarily a cultural one.

[Guys, one or two-Word answers are no fun]

While I don't know much about the chap, owing to his endorsements and username, I am left to assume that he is that brand of center leftist who has bought into it as a "movement".

Left-wing Christian Democrat, or the liberal end of the communitarians; he fits into the broad liberal movement in the country, though standing perhaps slightly to the right of its orthodox stalwarts, and to the left of the so-called "neoliberals" and the Readyforherists.

Bog standard "alt leftists". I know that's not a real thing; I'm thinking essentially an idiosyncratic Sandersista.

It could have gone far, but for the second Bush presidency.

Oh, wow, this'll be fun. Too bad I'm on mobile.

His perceived reactionary credentials allow him a certain amount of ideological versatility that makes him hard to pin down. His self-identification amounts to being one of those "the party changed, not me" ex-Democrats while also claiming to be a Libertarian. He seems to have turned sour on Trump, and occasionally displays support for environmentalism. He could be best called a hetorodox populist right-winger.

"A poster boy for globalism" pretty much sums it up. Tongue Beyond that, parrotguy is easily identifiable as a left-leaning, internationalist liberal. A defining feature of his worldview is that it is unequivocally modern, affirming a number of liberal human rights and the belief that they transcend borders and nationality--or at least ought to. Meanwhile, he* has no desire to rock the boat with any outlandishly radical "reforms" to capitalism, instead preferring general stability and the triumph of gradualism in that sphere.

Center-left with undoubtedly strong pro-Israel beliefs.

Emphasis on the skip. Tongue

Pragmatic globalist social democrat, presumably smart enough not to fall into obviously dangerous cognitive traps of ideology while nevertheless being identifiably left-wing.
