This is a bizarre interpretation of the left-right political spectrum. For starters, I don't understand why your definition of "far left" is tumblr...

Liberal cuck - You are a cuck and proud. You place no value on borders, history or ethnicity. If a non white guy came home with your daughter you'd gush that your future grandkids would be diverse and you could show to all your cosmopolitan friends how non racist you are.

Cuckservative- You espouse traditional conservative values yet you are a civic nationalist who believes that mass immigration is a good thing and creates wealth.

Quite a few of these conditions for political position are more a test of "are you a discriminative ********?" Or "Do you have moronic, short-sighted opinons?" Rather than actual political stance.

A mix of them all

Yes, I'm discriminative, which is why I'm able to make careful and decisive judgements.

Learn the difference between 'discriminative' and 'discriminatory' before inadvertently giving someone a compliment.

Secondly, you sound typical of someone who castigates others with legitimate concerns about mass immigration and the failure of multiculturalism in western countries (particularly Islamic values being seemingly incompatible with secular British ones).

Of course, I'm 'moronic and short-sighted' and a '[discriminatory] ********' (and probably a 'racist bigot' as well) for seeing communities which are being destroyed, as a result of freedom of movement of (predominantly unskilled) labour and mass immigration, leading to our own people ending up in poverty and out of work.

Get a grip.

If you want to get pedantic about grammar, "Discriminative" can be used to describe either prejudice or fair distinction.

How exactly do i sound typical in this way? I never said anything specific about mass immigration, multiculturalism, or Islam. You seem to be defending your ideologies when i haven't even attacked them.

I am aware that immigration has issues, and as i said, not once did i express that I'm all for free movement of "Predominantly unskilled labour". However, some people will always be in poverty, regardless of how many immigrate.

No it cannot. There are clear distinctions between the two, please read about the difference.

It's a general term meaning to make distinctions. Therefore, it can be transferred to a negative or positive viewpoint. But this thread isn't about grammar.

Far left libertarian socialist.

The traditional left should be actual socialists, in that they want to replace capitalism with a socialist economic system. Just wanting the state to run large sections of the economy and regulate is a form of state capitalism. That should be the traditional centre left or when social democracy gave up on actually being socialist.
