Funny thing, I think you're the first person to ask me that in the past few years. Everyone's eager to join a club and advertise it, but I've had better luck just staying away from labels. Nobody cares what I think, probably not even you, but people do care a bit about facts. Yes, that's a dodge of the question, but only because I don't like wasting time on discussions that probably go nowhere.

You're right, it's far from reality. This proposal is also far from reality, given that it was put forward as a global thing. A 2% tax but then a 100% tax if they're naughty is also far from reality. On the internet, everything is far from reality. In real life I do activism, on the internet I talk and share and hope it makes a difference just by bringing something to someone's attention.
