About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make/contribute-to a better world.

ABOUT ME

I am spontaneous, openminded, 6'0" 180 lb (80 kg). I am fairly athletic, fascinated by breakdance and freerunning. I am not collectivist. I see language as a crappy medium for expressing thoughts. I am interested in how and why things work, and in the world's problems. I have a passion for new ideas.

I appear to be naturally anti-social around people who thirst for power, and prefer to speak to people who think they hate me and what i stand for. I am a Renaissance man. I am and always will be a member of the 'Third Culture'(TCK). My travels throughout the world have shaped my beliefs and my goals.

Yeah.. I do, somewhat, try to avoid labels.. but when I do use labels, it is based on what I know about the person I'm speaking to, and I hate to homogenize people, but language divides people so well that I do have different 'labels' depending on the language type.

Anonymously, I am an 'catallactic anarchist' or 'agorist'. In polite company, I am a 'legal egalitarian' or 'libertarian'. Academically, I am an 'Austrian Economist' or 'Polycentric Legal Theorist'. Around old people, maybe 'paleo-conservative', 'classical liberal', 'voluntarist republican' or 'jeffersonian democrat'. Around 'Austrian Economists' I am 'semi-rothbardian'. Around Anarchists I am 'anarcho-capitalist', 'anarcho-ANTI-capitalist' (depending on the definition of 'capitalist'), 'market anarchist', 'catallactic anarchist' maybe 'panarchist'. Around activists I am an 'agorist' or 'seasteader' (seasteading.org)

These words, of course, don't define me, but only help to approximate me.

PHILOSOPHY

Mutualist, Semi-Rothbardian
