Okay. Abstractly I’m for personal autonomy proliferation of possibilities and the cultivation/nurturing/flourishing of the potential of all intelligence–ai if that ever exists, whales, visiting aliens if that happens, and whatever else; even hypothetically some apes, if you can believe that–individually and collectively.
More viscerally I’m for banishing inefficiency precarity exploitation and unjustifiable bullshit, making the world more fun/interesting, and finding opportunities to grow in those considered finished/complete or discarded by bourgeoise society. Also pretty opposed to pointless wasteful destruction of things that are unrecoverable or expensive to recover. I’ve got a lot of anger about delusional superstitions theological and otherwise that justify awful bullshit that prevents and destroys the good stuff.
This means in practical terms that I’m extremely hostile to police, means testing, borders, hierarchy, private property, money, laws in general, bureaucracy, and probably a lot of other stuff you think is necessary or elemental to the way the world works. I will not be saying what I’m in favor of in the day-to-day here–too unusual.
This sounds pretty uncompromising because it is. I haven’t had much connection to established society and ideas in my adult life except by conflict, and was explicitly excluded as a child. I have gained nothing from it except by force or deception, and so had no positive social/material bonds with it to guide my intellectual/emotional growth or relationships that would be stressed by radical ideas. Nobody has compromised with me, so I have compromised on nothing, which is unfortunate–i quite enjoy co-creation if the built world and perceptions thereof. Of all the people to seek common ground with; I am not the ideal. There are others you could ask.
