Oddly enough, I would say rightward. But that's been true in real life also, mostly since the 2016 primaries.

back in high school I used to be made fun of for being invested in politics, specifically for being so left with my politics. Then when the 2016 election came around, which was post-college for me and most of the people I talk to, suddenly I was being called an "establishment centrist" and whatnot for not being gung-ho about Bernie Sanders.

It's common for people to become more liberal when pursuing higher education so I guess it's not so much that I have moved further to the center or right, but perhaps becoming more pragmatic as my peers have become more idealistic, even though I am probably still the same degree of left wing as I was in high school and college.

As such, when I joined this forum last year, that has remained the case as I am surprised to find myself disagreeing with maroon avatars almost as often as I squabble with blue avatars.
