This site is a researched collection of my ethics, philosophies, and normative beliefs — an honest analysis of politics and ethics leading to my conclusions.

Frontier LLMs such as Grok 4.5 and Gemini 3.6 have assisted in formulating and revising text, research, and critical hardening.

This is my ideal for America: a negative-rights republic with a hard criminal code, net-taxpayer franchise, assimilation and values filters, ranked-choice democracy, and a thin state on tax and markets. It is a destination I am stating, not a poll of what is popular.

I am not naive enough to think that ideal will ever actually be reached. It will never happen. These are ideals. Voting for and supporting things in that realm — and getting closer — is enough. Directionally aligned enough to move toward it is good. That is life.

Going full libertarian tomorrow would ignore the country we actually have — the same kind of utopia as socialist utopia, just pointed the other way: “live and let live” while counting on people to do good. Negative rights stay the threshold. Full libertarianism is not what I push as next-step policy.

The path we are on does not get closer to that republic. So I favor harder, more directionally aligned moves now — including conservative-leaning enforcement, borders, and forfeiture — because they close distance to the ideal. They are not the ideal itself.

Supporting parties or policies is a cost analysis. They are not fully perfect and not fully inside this framework. When a side is directionally aligned on major points — such as anti-crime and harsh on crime, anti-immigration, pro-assimilation, and against trans policies — I will support them.
