Only Prager could handle this question!
Just one question: Are you entitled to my earnings?
You can almost tell if someone is a liberal by just their appearance. And then you have to remember that they can identify us conservatives as well.
If they wont answer the questions while trying to sound intelligent (to themselves) then they are leftists
If I were a liberal my answer would be: “Absolutely” But since I am not, my answer is No..
“How do you feel about the color orange?”
Here is one and only question, “who did you vote for” end of story
Also, the amount of leftism is inversely proportional to how many questions they answer before yelling the f-word or “bigot” at you.
Save time and start with this question.
The overwhelming majority in fact.
Really, my experience has been that you don’t have to ask. Leftists will insert their opinion just to see if they can get a rise. When they get any push back though, they stomp off as if they are spoiled brats.

Right. That’s why I usually follow a don’t-ask-don’t-tell policy. If a liberal friend or relative asks me a political question and wants a genuine discussion, okay. We’ll talk. But their questions are usually loaded. Their questions are traps of sorts.
I avoid such traps. I won’t be changing any minds anyway. Plus my blood pressure is high enough as it is.
If you did present these questions, you would be called a racist just for asking them.
......”my experience has been that you don’t have to ask”......
Generally that is so....you can tell as soon as they comment about daily ‘life’ because they’re a death cult when they support abortion.
33. Did Prager ever apologize to the late, great Bob Grant before he died?
Only one question needed: Trump?
........”their questions are usually loaded. Their questions are traps of sorts.”......
Great observation and true. They want to generally just hear themselves talk about their own political positions.....
“Entitled to my earnings...”
The answer is “yes” for all as long as we have a givernment. Besides, there are many FReepers who get their social security checks because your earnings are confiscated. (I know, I know ... they “paid into it...it’s mine”). The argument is to how much is the givernment entitled. But the more fundamental question is what is the proper role and size of the givernment, and only then do you debate how to fund it. Our givernment runs in the opposite direction. They mandate how much they are going to vacuum out of your wallet, then they figure how they are going to spend every penny and more. Since the “wise” courts have held since FDR that the feral givernment’s powers are not limited to those enumerated in the Constitution (they even find stuff that’s not even in the Constitution!), almost none of the now living have any experience to know what it’s like to live under really limited givernment. It’s a nice idea about the past until it is cleaned out of the history books by the big tech censors and thought police. Very difficult to convince people that the givernment needs to be limited when they cannot comprehend the idea based on their experience.
But back to Prager, some of his questions are not that great. But to a complete stranger, I don’t need 32 questions to figure out whether someone is a leftist, a liberal, or a parrot who spouts slogans that the media puts into their heads. To an acquaintance or family member, I could get by with no questions in many cases. As Sierra said, you can tell without talking - looking at the way they are dressed. But if that doesn’t work, you can tell just by listening to whatever it is they chatter and cackle about, cliches, slogans, empty phrases.
Do you drive a Subaru or a Prius?
