What's your alignment?

[Angrboda]

I represent myself as apolitical, though that may be an exaggeration. I don't spend time knowing politics and the world, so I don't consider myself politically informed. All the same, many times I'll open my mouth, and stuff comes out. And if a political danger presents itself, I may act or speak up. The last presidential election, a state marriage amendment was on the ballot, so I dragged myself out and waited three hours in line to vote, when I'd normally have stayed home. (I live in an overwhelmingly blue state.)

So I guess blue suits me, though I decide issues less along party lines or grand political theories than simply "what appears right" at the time. (Thus people have found me defending the rights, actions, and policies of conservatives and republicans at times on this forum.)


I'm a philosopher and a Taoist. Politics just isn't my domain.
