Lately I've spent a lot of time thinking about the fact that I want an ideological framework to exist within. I'm the kind of person who likes having labels to identify with that I can throw around - I get a kick out of it - but the problem is that I don't know enough about ANY framework to make an educated guess about where I might fit. And I do want to fit, or at least find a bunch of words that I can call on. Here are, in no particular order, some things that I would like out of an ideological framework.
- the freedom to move around and change my opinions
- a basis in compassion and critical thinking at the same time
- something that allows me to express queerness and kinkiness and fluidity and neurodiversity
- the ability to ask a whole lot of questions
- like, so many questions
- the freedom to be able to turn off caring about things once in a while without being penalised for it within the framework
- something that offers the possibility of a firm moral/ideological precept, preferably something about being compassionate and reducing net harm
- i don't fucking know dude

That still doesn't help with what postmodernism is, but I think I'll just google that. Thanks for the help :D
