The Concept for the Radical Pirate Blog

The idea here is to share my unique view on politics and the world. My political leanings have ranged far and wide, and I am conversant and sympathetic on most points of view. I have promoted anarchy, syndicalism, socialism, republicanism, democracy, and even paranoia at various times, but ultimately, my basic makeup is that of a radical pirate.

Radical, because my views are rather far to one side of the conventional political spectrum, and a pirate, because I am very sympathetic to the cause of the Pirate Party.

We seek to change global legislation to facilitate the emerging information society, characterized by diversity and openness. This is done by requiring an increased respect for citizens, their privacy, and the reform of rights ownership laws.

Pirate themes carry over to my religious interests as well, as I have become a casual pastafarian of late. You can see me and my pirate-fish snowboard on the FSM (Flying Spaghetti Monster) webpage.

Arrr!
