My story

As a kid I was apolitical about Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. In 1992 I supported Bill Clinton because George HW Bush sucked. In 1996 I endorsed Bob Dole for President, in 2000 I supported Bill Bradley and when he dropped out I supported George W Bush. I was apolitical to politics in the 1980s and 1990s.

I became a Far left Democrat ‘Commie’ in 2003 due to me turning against the Iraq War and becoming anti war and me seeing the Dixie Chicks being bullied for being anti war by warhawks like Denis Leary etc. For the rest of the 2000s I was anti war (which I still am today but for the reasons Mark Twain was against war not for the Lenin reasons I was against war then), hated George W Bush and his neocon Republican allies, supported John Kerry and Barack Obama, had a lot of liberal views etc.  

As a far left ‘Commie’ in the 2000s, whenever a pastor or a conservative commentator came on TV and said something that went against my liberal beliefs, I would go nuts and throw my remote at the TV so to speak.  So I would mostly find liberal 'safe spaces' to hear like minded liberal narratives like MSNBC (Keith Olbermann, Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews), CNN, Democratic Underground etc. Despite this I still wasn't overtly political in the 2000s. 

At the 2004 DNC, I heard Barack Obama and further got into policies. He also talked about unity among both political parties (this isn't the DUSA or RUSA but the United States of America) which made me for the first time in years, agree that maybe the Republicans aren't as bad as I thought.

Little by little I became more and more moderate. First it was me seeing how kids have it too easy nowadays via a inthe80s.com post, then it was me seeing the SJW nonsense in early 2007 about some sports thing and me joining a Christian community, then it was me reading some conservative forums in 2009. I further was poed by liberalness when Ashton Kutcher was attacked in 2011 for defending Joe Paterno (my first exposure to cancel culture). 

Then the crazy brand of liberalness in the 2010s cemented me as a level headed Autocratic Left wing Independent

For the rest of the 2010s, I'd fight against SJWism, cancel culture and warmongers

I rooted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 because I was BernieORSupportHillaryClintonFortheWRONGreason. I wanted Hillary Clinton to win that election so she'd be a target of Donald Trump's attacks (like Barack Obama was a target of Trump's attacks as President from 2009-2016) as payback for her stealing the nomination from Bernie Sanders (and also since it would expose Trump for the blowhard troll he is)

I figured an emotionally damaged Hillary Clinton as President would be better than a non emotionally damaged Hillary Clinton not as President

As a new level headed Autocratic Left wing Independent, I felt that Bernie Sanders embodied this new, more moderate version of me. When he got screwed by the Democrats, I was BernieorBust hence why I 'supported' Hillary Clinton for the wrong reasons

I am a fair whether NeverTrumper. I give Donald Trump credit where credit is due but I am still not down with him . Like David Brooks, I admit that the NeverTrump movement has failed. Trump should have followed through with his campaign promises of cheaper healthcare and decent economic protections. I am however, partly a Boris Johnson supporter. I also am a Nicodemus type follower of the Lincoln Project. I echo what Doug Ehmets said at the 2016 DNC. I also echo some things that the Bulwark and Republican Accountability Project said about the modern Republicans including Donald Trump.

In 2020, I didn't follow politics because I was taking a break from politics, partly because being a David Brooks type fair whether NeverTrumper, I didn't dislike him enough to root for someone else (I was apolitical)

I have my own agenda in politics that doesn't follow party lines or ideology lines. I help politicians of all parties if it pushes my agenda forward (so I support a make believe rebirthed Democratic-Republican party party!!!!)  However,  my main loyalty is to Independents

The liberals have moved so far to coo coo la la land, they would probably confront the 2000s liberal version of me. like they did to Krysten Sinema in ASU in 2021 about her vote. However since I use to be one of them, I know exactly how liberals think and act better than most moderates like me do

I don't care about politics. I am apolitical. I have no perceivable political principles whatsoever. In the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s (mostly) and 2010s (mostly) I stayed away from politics (which not only do I want to get back to but I think others should be as apolitical in the future as I was back then). But since I got into political video games I decided to expand that into real life political 'games'. 

I prefer a full anarchism and a self governing society with no government (or at worse a Night Watchmen state like the UK in the 19th century), radical localism, Isolationism and people follwing the 2 rules (for hardened heart non Judeo Christians have them replace God with humanity, whatever God they serve, higher power, or whatever motivates them to live secular lives that are Christian like)

If I sound too conservative on some issues, its somewhat because I am on a unique spot on the political spectrum as noted above (level headed Autocratic Left) and because I support ‘Third Party’ politics

Take every thing I write in this blog with a grain of salt. Also anything I write has a chance to be tongue and cheek or irony
