Hello! Skulduggery, here - named so because I loved a certain book series as a kid (EDIT: yes, I know what the definition is, but I swear it's for the book character, and not because I've got bad intentions :doh ). I might add to my profile some more as time goes on but right now I'm just a dude who's interested in politics. Interested specifically in creating a firm political identity.
Only recently have I expressed an interest in being politically involved. Before, I paid politics no mind, and even looked down on it, for a time. "Politics is low" and beneath me, etc. Pretty stupid. I realized in my senior year of college that I had no real belief about our government, world affairs, etc. and if pressed upon it, I could only shrug and remain mute. This, from a guy who considered himself quite educated and wise beyond his years (ugh) and a real literary hotshot. I started diving into the YouTube political realm and admired folks like Dave Rubin and Steven Crowder and Ben Shapiro (probably gives you a hint of my prior political leanings...) but became unsatisfied with their views and characters. Fast forward, I now consider myself quite Left Wing, but only left my Political Beliefs category on my profile blank because I want to use this site as a way to solidify my positions. The more I get involved, the more I become sure of who I am. That's the idea, anyway.
We'll see how it goes. Looking forward to learning new things and getting my butt kicked in a debate.
Thanks!
