    Is T.Pratchett leftist? Or is he a conservatist, rightist, or unleftist?

    I think he is not a leftist.

    I find Pratchett conservative, because:
    - his heroes are free individuals, but they are not interested to ask why. Look at the Ankh Morpork, they got aristocratic, peasants, workers and bourgoise, but there is no class struggle, everyone are happy, because they can be whatever they want due hard work (haha)
    - Pratchett shows his views by Commander Vimes, Commander Vimes is conservative, does not believe in other man, but trust rich man. Yes, he is quite tough with rich criminals, but also against property violation.
    - look at other cities or countries, no class struggle, everyone accept their place in world, every riot is from major offence, not intentional act, rather emotional,
    - look at Witches, they help poor, but not ask why they are poor, it is for them natural way of life.

    These are only a few points, but I think it is reasonable point of view.
