Politics

---

I'm interested in politics broadly: who wields power, and how.

My politics are inconsistent. I use the term "radical" easily enough, and once decided "anarcho-communo-liberal" sounded about right, though silly. "Anarchist" is okay with me.

Sometimes I use the term "progressive," partly because it's so nonspecific. But I generally steer clear of liberal reform efforts, which divert attention from radical social change even as they sometimes help real people; yes, that's a dilemma. We have enough liberals. We don't have enough people pushing boundaries in reasonable and fundamental ways.

I've been involved in direct action, mass organization, and other political efforts over the years (list). I prefer direct action to electoral politics and lobbying legislators.

You can receive things I write about these and other topics by email.

I sporadically post related comments about a variety of issues on my weblog.

Photos on my separate photo website sometimes reflect political themes, especially protest activities.
