Usually about 25 of the 30 questions in the voting adviser. I don't care if some party wants to take budget from primary schools and stick it in kindergartens instead or if we fund the F35 or whatever. I'm not a military plane expert nor work in educational finance but these are literally the questions they select to use as basis for your vote. Dudes, ask an expert! They'll probably tell you "don't know, but we can do a scale study to see which way works better"

Whatever topic I know has a reasonable expectation of making more people sustainably happy is what I click, and then usually it tells me I haven't clicked enough answers for it to produce voting advice...

Most 'current hot topics' are either unknowable with current information, or just wholly irrelevant to bigger problems like when we're going to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions and stop discriminating people

I don't really think much about what the people who make stuff like movies, games, shows, etc believe. Like I'll talk about a movie I've seen lately or plan on seeing with a group of people and every now and then they'll say "Why do you want to see a movie made by this person that has these bad beliefs?" Cause it looked like something I'd enjoy watching? Most recent one was me saying I want to see Ghost Soldier and got told off for wanting to watch propaganda made by a bunch of MAGA people.

There are very few things I'm passionate about. That list would be shorter, the rest would be "not strong opinions on".

Billionaires and those who carry water for them: All are bad, and should be taxed till they're millionaires and then mostly ignored.

It's your body and your life, do whatever you want. But, don't expect there to be zero consequences for every choice. "Your right to swing your fists ends at my nose."

Respect is earned. Over and over.

Everyone on Earth deserves "free" healthcare--paid for by a tax on all. The people allocating the money should have ZERO say in what is funded.
