Libertarians seem to be what the Republicans once were and generally claim they still are (except with the added religious baggage). Socialism is tempting. Very tempting.
One of the less important but still-present things that pisses me off about the current parties is their respective stances on video games. Nearly fucking identical! I especially have it out for (Hillary) Clinton and Lieberman in the democratic party, because it's the major party that otherwise makes me the least nervous, but they hate video games and people who play them as much as any republican.
I'd love to go tell them in person about all the terrible, violent video games that I played in my life, like Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil, Doom, Grand Theft Auto (all of them), Quake, Halo, Conker's Bad Fur Day, several of those generic World War II games… jesus goddamn christ, I could never bring myself to hurt or kill another human being. I hurt animals like a fucking Buddhist hurts animals. You don't leave these games with anything that you didn't have before you started playing.
