I'd just like to point out that there are politically left-wing people who are religious and right-wing people who are atheists.Well put! I am always irked by the limitations of the one-dimensional "left-right" political spectrum. It really should be two-dimensional, including economic and social axes, like the Political Compass.

orthohawk:I know what you meant, and you didn't answer my questions.TheRealFlenuan:No, I mean ideas that are right-wing, free-market, religious, tradition-honoring and conservative.orthohawk:That makes no sense. Even in some hypothetical world where Esperanto is banned, the language would still have the capacity to express ideas on all sides.Polaris:Unless such use is not allowed.
It is important not to paint with too broad of a brush, however, and to remember that just as Esperanto can be used to put forth views that are leftist, communist, anti-religious, or politically liberal, etc., the same language can be used to put forth ideas that are right-wing, free-market, religious, tradition-honoring, and conservative.
And why are you saying that anyway? What's the point of giving hypothetical scenarios?

TheRealFlenuan:Presumably because "social" and "economic" axes are the most relevant for normal political discourse, while a three-dimensional spectrum would already start getting fussy.Tempodivalse:Why stop at two dimensions?I'd just like to point out that there are politically left-wing people who are religious and right-wing people who are atheists.Well put!

What would you suggest for the third dimension? Not immediately obvious to me, given that most political topics boil down to social views or economics.

Tempodivalse:Veganism seems to be most popular among white females according to this info.It is the same thing like vegetarianism . It is for white women . How much black men you know that are vegans ?Is there statistical evidence for this assertion? I'm curious, because this is a stereotype that I've heard a lot, but I'm a bit sceptical.

ravana:Here in croatia i know only one black woman who is vegetarian and that is becouse she is a member of hare krishna movement . I did not want to ofence anybody but you can also be honest and say how many of your black friends are vegan . Forget the friendess for now .There is nothing wrong with studying people groups. Sociologists do this all the time.
Keep in mind that people can get offended easily over race issues because of our bad history.
If you want to bring people together then focus on our similarities, not our differences. At the end of the day, we are the same. We are just a product of our sub culture.
