    I’ve noticed women on bumble do this. Put moderate as their political affiliation, and list black lives matter and LGBTQ+ and such as their causes. Before this post I would think “elected moderates aren’t doing anything for your causes at best,” but my perspective as I swipe left on them anyway is a little different now

      My friend in her 30s avoids dating apps because on those apps, either the guy calls himself a centralist and then wants a trad wife and a woman to know her place, or he calls himself not politically active and only listens to Joe Rogan for the discussions nobody else talks about.

      Where my single male friends who are good dudes are afraid every woman is just a OF influencer.

      I feel sorry for the dating scene.

      that’s a left leaning moderate position. A far left position would be some shit like straight communism/socialism

      The moderate left is more liberal in essence.
