At one time I was able to support the Democrats, but as the situations have evolved I find myself not represented by ANY political party.
The system is completely bought and paid for except for a very few voices that get lost in the screaming.

I am not a Democrat; I am not a Republican- not even a Libertarian. Protesting, is not my way but It is the way of my times. It is not "wrong" nor is it a sin but it is derived from conflict and is therefore a symptom and not the medicine. But it is nevertheless good because it shows us we are sick and is therefore valid in it's existence. I align myself with those processes that are needed but if, in my conclusion I find myself to either side of center-point I know the scale of my foundation is not aligned to the proper way of things. It would not be wrong to call me a liberal but know that my values come from a time and place were I would be considered conservative- No!, such a word will not do, for it has become one-side. I would say traditionalist if it were not for poor translation and I will not correct my peers who know me by modern political terminology but it is merely for their sake that I should refer to myself as such. Many voices are needed, within and without but nay to any worldview that says to have a voice you must exclusively label yourself. Polarization itself is not evil and it is my way in practice but it is not the whole of the way and while I may move that storm I must be grounded and equally distributed in life as I am in my circle. That is my way.

I do not really belong to any party, am just fed up and pissed off. I AM an activist, mostly environmental now though. Lost many friends due to this. I mostly associate with Liberals. Right now I am involved mostly in anti- fracking efforts rather than actual political battles. I have been researching mental manipulation for the past year, mostly as in government and religion towards citizens.

Now, where is pawnman and memnoch??? ...hopefully in a dark hole where they belong. I'm with you--I consider my ideals aligned more or less with the Dems, but their performance has been so subpar that I can't go beyond that. I'm a registered "independent." Little-'i'--not capital.

I was a public education funding advocate through PTA for YEARS...now I just support local grass roots efforts. It's really too hard to get further for me right now. It's just so debilitating spirit-wise. Though I do hope at some point to also join the efforts for prisoner rights advocacy as well.

I can understand how some people him as ruthless but there are things we do agree on- you just can't take him too personally. He is not to my knowledge, an emotional communicator.

I have a long, deep history with some of those folks...they were primarily the reason I left MW, amongst other things, of course. But I've cried pax for the most part.

Jenne and I were among the long term MW members who got banned during the Great Discordian Purge.
If mol was a part of your group I would never step foot in the door.
But, moving forward...
