Some private confusion, that is, about the politics of this blog. One minute I’m critiquing conservatives and the next I’m critiquing liberals. Guilty as charged. But not inconsistent. Not if both of those ideologies (as expressed today) are getting it wrong.
To clarify, I reviewed an old post that playfully defines my position as “Aquarian Anarchy,” which is in some ways equidistant from all points on today’s left-right axis. Although the post is from the year 2 BTE (before the Trump era), it still seems accurate. So here it is. Enjoy.

I think the best thing is not to be pigeon-holed into one firm place. It’s good to be flexible, which in today’s partisan environment that’s not always possible. Just write and think about what you truly believe, and don’t worry about labels. – Marty

Well said, Marty. Although we have to engage those who define themselves by the labels, best to stand apart. I’m ready for a post-political approach to fixing problems 🙂

” Aquarian Anarchy”….. You got me hooked now, going to write a post called that, but with a strange twist of mine. Had me smiling here, good post, and the other one of “hanging”

Thanks, Charly. I am “hippying” right now — hitchhiked from Dresden to Wroclaw today, but will look for your post when I get a chance. Gary

I appreciate your sentiments re polarization and the l-r paradigm. There are infinite vantage points between us and them. Why not explore that?
