What's your slogan in political life?

[Chan790]

I was just thinking about this as I realized if I had to summarize my POV across a wide swath of topics and actions into a pithy one sentence tag-line it would be this:

I'm just not taking that shit lying down.

I've noticed that I not only am I one of the more ideologically-aggressive combative activists I know, my responses are typically outsize to their provocations.

What about you?

1. Long-time DU-ers probably know mine by heart:

12. I have two (kinda)

Unfortunately, I don't really have a succinct phrase for my political philosophy. I do have a different slogan but it's a more general life slogan and actually somewhat contradicts the first one.

1.) Society exists to help each other out. We're barbaric if we take the "I got mine" attitude. So yes, we as a society should be paying for somebody's medication if they can't afford them (I had to seriously say this on another forum to someone who posed the question rhetorically thinking the answer was "no"). If I ever stop believing this, I want someone to do something to make me be human again.

2.) Question everything.

[ornotna]

13. We have met the enemy

and he is us.

[MilesColtrane]

14. "First, do no harm."

[cherokeeprogressive]

15. "Promise me what your focus group surmises I want, and I'll promise you my vote." n/t

[Doc_Technical]

16. This has confounded me all my life:

Sometimess I wonder whether the world is being run
by smart people who are putting us on or by
imbeciles who really mean it.”

Mark Twain
