Neither.
Just a normal family that worked and lived for their own instead of projecting their issues on others, as well as keeping the politics of their homeland away from their children.

i grew up with a family that didnt give a shit about politics because they knew they, as a single family, had less than 0% chance of making even the slightest bit of a difference. i also dont really give a shit about politics.
I would say mine was split, my mother could care less about anything political. My father whom in his own words before he passed talked how conservatism has changed to the point that it is not about the overall uplifting of the poor but more akin to boot licking corporate leeches. He voted for the right until 2012 but was strong on abortion rights and other things the left covets so i would say he was center right perhaps?
Very much a right wing family. That said, right wing when I was a kid would be the equivalent to a moderate Democrat today.
Both Democrats and Republicans have moved significantly to the right over my lifetime. My father and a number of uncles got suckered by the fear mongering and moved to the extreme right to stay with Republicans.
I don't know. And I think that's how it really should be.
Thankfully my parents didn't give much of a fuck for politics. I honestly never knew who each one of my parents voted for and I doubt they knew each others vote either.
Dad is right, mum is a hippy but votes right because our left wing politicians in Australia are fucked in the head
Left wing family. Mother mostly apolitical but father was always a leftie. Grandparents on the other hand are the exact opposite.
Una melodía tocada por las cuerdas de nuestras almas,
y el ritmo que nos sacudió hasta el hueso
Used to be centrist but then the right went crazy and pushed us to the left.
Not really a big topic in our family, but pretty moderate with some left leaning. Then again, compared to the US we're all commies.
Come on......
I distrust both parties and don't trust any major news outlet enough to watch them but part of the wikileaks was an email from John Podesta where he told another person in Hillary's campaign that they had a large number of journalists on their side who they could literally email talking points to and that journalist would then write an article or do an on air segment based on those points. He then listed around 30 journalists and about 20 of them were from cnn. They are not centrist.

Pretty much the same in my house but they still voted republican which always puzzled me. I got shat on for voting democrat when I was able to start voting in 1998. I love them but fuck them, its my choice get the fuck over it.
Also, they kind of rubbed off on me because I can't stand the annoying SJW (there is nothing wrong with actual social justice btw, its what should be striven for always) types online even though I'm liberal.
Tikki tikki tembo, Usagi no Yojimbo, chari bari ruchi pip peri pembo!
Pretty sure no one in my family votes
Wrong. Fox is in the middle, CNN is extreme left.
My mom doesn't really think about politics a lot. My dad is to the right - Wants low taxes, thinks take care of yourself or rot, pro smashing criminals, but doesn't care if gays marry or a woman has an abortion. I'm with him on most issues but I am much further to the right than he is. Sister is EXTREME left, like some of the crazies on this forum.
