I think your friends are focusing on your social values and is why they see you as leftist / liberal.
I think most of the CP discussions here have been almost exclusively financial in focus and nature lately, which is why you’re viewed as conservative.
It seems you’re one of those financially conservative / socially liberal people that can be viewed in many ways, having misinterpretations of your entire position as a result. IMO You’re just as misrepresented in our political parties as most of us.
