The problem with this list is it isn't a random open ended question of "What worries you the most? ____________" It's a "How much do each of these issues worry you? A lot, a little or not at all. Of course the 18 year-olds that live on twitter and reddit will side "with capitalism bad" when given the option.

It'd be interesting to see an open ended question for both sides or a list of 40+ things and let the respondents pick their top 5 or 10.


Without knowing the source of the survey, it's almost certain that choices are extremely biased one way or another to make the other side look bad. In other words, this is also propaganda.

I wouldn't by any stretch call myself a conservative, but...

I've spent 30 years badmouthing the cops as useless revenue generators who hand out tickets and then don't show up when you need them, but the last couple years of shrill gender-questionable screeching and hoodie/facemask/thugs throwing Molotovs has given me real pause as to what side I'm on.

If the BLM/antifa dipshits were arming up and making the streets better like 70s BlackPanthers, I might have some use for them. Since they're just anarchist animals looking for a little ultraviolence with their droogs, I don't.

I guess that puts me reluctantly on the side of the police, since I'm definitely on the side of law and order. Weird place for a libertarian to end up- thanks a lot, antifa.

The whole ANTIFA/blm/lockdown bs further accelerated my hatred for the cops because they did roughly nothing to settle that shit down and didn't protect any private property.

God forbid a restaurant stays open past curfew though, the thug arm of the .gov will be there to crack some skulls tho.

Do they have obligation to protect you, no, do they have any obligation to protect your private property, no but fund them or they will come and throw your ass in jail.
 
What they are really worried about is the public figuring out they are both against all of us. Anything that's for us and making us independent...they are against.

They are terrified that if we stop, come together and realize we're all the same (black, white, red or green) (straight, gsy or whatever) we just want to be left alone to be what the fuck ever we want)...they would be hanging from street lights.

I think this issue comes from higher up. I feel like most cops would bust a bullet in the blm fucks given the opportunity. Cops, at least ones here in LA, feel like trump supporters vs blm supporters. But they have to follow orders from the fucks above. Even the captain answers to the higher powers. Bit I have zero actual issue with the cops

I support the police like I support the grocery bagger, bank teller, or garbage man. Its a job you chose, quit sobbing about your special snowflake needs and lack of public support.

The idea they get to take home a $100k Tahoe on the citizens dime still chaps my ass. They're still revenue generators in my eyes.

Not to mention that they fucking started it. Society was on a razors edge, just over the bullshit lockdown, over a couple months of unemployment, just got over a dumbass impeachment hearing, and some dumbass supercop puts his dumbfuck overmilitarized, pre pubescent ultra alpha male knee into the kneck of a black dude for 9 minutes.

fuck cops. Fuck antifa and blm more, but seriously, fuck cops.

Correct. The real reason why a libertarian candidate won’t ever win is it’s not about “the will of the people.” A limited government and “do what you want” is the best compromise and probably acceptable to 80% of the country.

The issue is, it’s hard to raise $ to “do nothing”. Funds come from major corporations getting kickbacks or favorable legislation, and then generating fear that the other side “will take your rights away” if the little guy doesn’t chip in $.
