Matthew Manning's position on the Political Compass
The Tsar has many ideological views chief among them being social democracy and center-left politics. He also has a great distrust of radicalism of any sort be it political, religious, or cultural. The Tsar personally prefers to refer to himself as a moderate as he feels not enough people try to be in the middle anymore.
Religious views
The Tsar was raised (rather loosely) as an Episcopalian but began to recognize himself as an Agnostic in his early teenage years. With this background in religion, the Tsar believes that religions are an important aspect of culture but he also believes that people take them too far too often. The Tsar is largely outspoken against the Westboro Baptist Church and the Church of Scientology.
