    I think the "anime fan" is the key, because I was the rest of those and turned into a commie.

      No idea, because I was deep into anime and Touhou and I'm also here. A whole bunch of left Twitter has anime profile pictures too. My impression is the libertarianism might be key, because it means you're just enough into politics to ask questions but not quite coherent enough to know what you're talking about, so you'll eventually fall into being a commie or a fascist depending on other random stuff in your life. I was all that nerd stuff too except the libertarian part, so that's my bias

        Yeah that's probably more likely, the whole "I just want to be left alone" thing had its appeal but I was always like "yeah but also, having to work to not-starve is the opposite of being left alone"
