Well whatever labels my readers self-identify as I\u2019d say the majority of them could be described as Contrarians because most won\u2019t be persuaded to take the poll.\u00a0 But that\u2019s okay.\u00a0 Nothing wrong with having an independent streak.<\/p>\n

Anyway, so far, the small sample we have is dominated by libertarians of various stripes.\u00a0 Next are the conservatives.\u00a0 There\u2019s one traditionalist (like myself) and even a Bernie Bro!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Conservative<\/td>\n3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Traditionalist<\/td>\n1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Libertarian<\/td>\n4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Ayn Randian<\/td>\n1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Ron Paul Follower<\/td>\n1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Bernie Bro<\/td>\n1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

Of course, eleven is a pretty small sample size, so I won\u2019t try to get too scientific about it, but I am encouraged that it\u2019s not an echo chamber.\u00a0 We have a pretty fair range of beliefs.\u00a0 And I believe an even wider range is out there but not announcing themselves due to the fringe effect.\u00a0 Actually I just made that name up now.\u00a0 I\u2019m sure social scientists have a technical term for this but I\u2019m just a simple engineer so I don\u2019t know it.\u00a0 Anyway, what I mean is that as you get farther and farther from the center (on both sides) people become much more careful about announcing their ideologies out of a sense of caution.<\/p>\n

Well, I\u2019m enjoying seeing who\u2019s out there so I\u2019ll keep the poll going (even though the software I\u2019m using is pretty ugly looking).<\/p>\n

One of my readers thought it was a good idea to keep a list of conservative companies that provide various products and services that currently seem dominated by left wing companies or companies that are easily coerced by SJWs to sabotage right wing folk.\u00a0 I agree with him.\u00a0 I\u2019ve set up a forum called \u201cDirectory of Right Wing Businesses\u201d here\u2019s the link https:\/\/orionscoldfire.com\/index.php\/forums\/forum\/directory-of-right-wing-businesses\/<\/a><\/p>\n

I started it off with Black Rifle Coffee Company.\u00a0 Everyone is welcome to add a recommendation.\u00a0 I\u2019ll maintain the list and eventually format it for convenience.\u00a0 And feedback on companies will be an important component.<\/p>\n

Well anyway, I\u2019ve been enjoying the feedback in the comments so thanks for that.\u00a0 And for you photographers out there remember the photo forum is for you guys to link your stuff and talk gear.\u00a0 Well, this is just a quick note.\u00a0 Thanksgiving and Christmas are upon us and I hope to have more time around the holidays (well, when I\u2019m not eating turkey) to blog and there seem to be all kinds of crazy things going on to keep our attention, but I want to make sure there are fun things to talk about too.\u00a0 For any of you out there who are country music fans, I have a review coming up very soon on a new singer\/songwriter who is pretty great in my opinion.\u00a0 And since this is all nothing but my opinion I\u2019ll try to link to some YouTube stuff of his that is pretty entertaining.\u00a0 So, I\u2019ll wrap this up.\u00a0 Stay tuned to OCF and I\u2019ll try to keep you folks entertained or at least occupied with my ravings.<\/p>\n

Since my readers don’t always stop by every day I figured I’d paste this poll on each post for a while to see what folks call themselves.\u00a0 This is the post the poll came from\u00a0\u00a0Who Are We?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

… And that got me thinking. Who are the people who read my blog?\u00a0 I thought it might be fun to see what the cross-section looked like.\u00a0 If you feel like saying what you believe in, feel free to leave a comment and\/or pick a label from the poll below.\u00a0 I think it might be interesting.<\/strong><\/p>\n
