The American Revolution is special. Most revolutions end with governments that aren’t that much better than what they started with, or with something bloody like the French Revolution. Many people fancy themselves revolutionaries, but are unaware of this fact.
Crypto-Centrist
While exotic, most of my policy proposals and viewpoints are in a strange center, center-right, or center-left position in practice.
Transhumanist
I favor the use of technology to improve human abilities above human baseline. I’m broadly in favor on issues such as designer babies once the technology is safe enough.
Nationalist
I believe that the organization of the world into multiple individually sovereign territories with friction around migration is healthier than most other ways to organize human civilization on Earth.
Type-19 Paramilitary Cyborg.
1. I believe Americans should have the right to high-output human augmentations under the Second Amendment, once they become available - and in fact, I believe they will. In order for the citizens to have any chance at standing against a military equipped with powered armor and heart monitoring and stabilization electrical meshes.
2. This is also part of the persona I present as when engaging in futurist shitposting, and is something of a personal goal.
Wanted time criminal.
1. I was future-shocked by the 2016 Presidential election.
2. We are currently living in the cyberpunk future.
3. As part of futurist shitposting, this blog posits different futures (such as white nationalist Richard Spencer becoming a Han Chinese cyborg detective) and alternate timelines.
4. As part of discussing future trends, the Union Girl persona I sometimes post under is from a much more post-national future, where social progressivism has continued, and ordinary civic nationalism is considered deeply right-wing and reactionary - and has traveled back in time with the intent of preventing that from happening, hoping to revive the North American Union. (See also the #supervillain tag.)
Class A-3 citizen of the North American Union.
1. I’m a citizen of the United States of America.
2. Class-based citizenships may be used as a possible change to immigration policy in the future, particularly if North America is formed into a North American Union, a continent-spanning superstate beyond even the USA’s current continent-spanning-superstate glory.
Opposed to the Chinese Hyper Mind-Union,
In the future, it may become possible to share thoughts through the use of cybernetic implants. Ideologues may seek to create a hivemind to create true equality of the likes never seen before. This is bad.
But in our time, I’m opposed to Communism.
the Ultra-Caliphate,
As oil revenues decline in the middle east, and climate change takes its toll, we may see the collapse of governments throughout that area and the formation of a new theocratic order. That’s not really a good thing, though they’re probably too fragmented even then for it to happen.
In our time, I’m opposed to both radical and fundamentalist Islam, and basically any form of Islam that aren’t as watered down as much of modern Christianity, and would take measures to subject Islam to the same pressures that caused so much of Christianity to engage in less suppression.
Also I’m against both cousin marriage and polygamy.
Google Defense Network,
This became less likely now that Google sold off Boston Dynamics, and is therefore significantly less likely to become either a de facto government in grand cyberpunk style, or Skynet.
But also in our time, the power of a handful of large corporations over the Internet is dangerous.
the People’s Republic of Cascadia
So basically, my opinion of modern SJ progressive leftism in combination with Socialism or Communism is that it lacks the necessary safeguards to prevent turning into a terrifying place no one wants to live in, where IRL callout posts take the form of police coming to arrest you for even the smallest transgression if you aren’t well connected within the Party.
National Separationist,
As the popularity of Open Borders as a position increases, wanting to keep the nations of Earth separate will gain its own label as a position, whereas currently it is the default.
enemy of the World Federation government and its unificationist allies.
As open borders as an idea takes off, it will become necessary to create an international police agency to track the criminals across the borders. Over time, it will be gradually given more power by ordinary liberals and progressives, the kind that I recently had suggest using the UN to enforce human rights.
However, even after the first attempt at a world government is formed, there will be holdouts. The political faction which believes in uniting humanity under one world government will gain a name of its own.
The median government on Earth is not as well run as the United States, much less Switzerland or Singapore. The world government would not only have little accountability as each vote is tiny and insignificant in size, but since control of it would mean control over all of humanity itself, the stakes incentivize every single political faction to enact total war to try to take it over, while those within it would attempt to use its resources to expand their power by conquering territories that aren’t part of the Federation.
Blogs Topics: Cyberpunk Nationalism.
This blog discusses Nationalism as ideology for the 21st century, rather than the now-obsolete movements of the 20th century.
Futurist Shtposting.
I use futurist shitposting as a method to encourage people to think about the coming politics before they get here, and with the intent of more closely examining the politics of today. Here’s an example using Richard Spencer, posted weeks before the rally at Charlottesville (link includes bonus discourse questions):
The year is 2064. Having given up on America and Europe, the last remaining members of the Alt Right undergo racial alteration surgery and genetic splicing to join Chairman Liu’s Neo-Chinese Empire, a governmental franchise operating seven megacities on the Asia-Pacific rim.
As a security officer at the front of the Empire’s fight against the Pan-Islamic Caliphate, a sort of distributed theocratic government with enclaves throughout Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, Victor Fang (born Richard Spencer, many years ago) is returned to Hong Kong after being injured by an IED, but he’s about to find out just how deep the Caliph’s conspiracies run…
How does this relate to the modern day? Well you see, with CRISPR (for genetic engineering), tissue engineering, and cybernetics, white supremacy is going to be an obsolete philosophy even on its own terms within a number of decades. (Robotic limbs and lab-grown organs already exist, they’re just not refined yet.) See the #augmented reality break and #chronofelony tags for more examples.
Timeline Vandalism.

Harassing owls over the Internet.
I send asks to Tumblr user Argumate, who as a running joke everyone pretends is an owl.
Use whichever typical gender pronouns you like.
I have not revealed my race, sex, or gender. You may refer to me as ‘she’, 'he’, or 'they’.
