anystrom is a YTMND user and a former YTMND Ventrilo member.

I was introduced to YTMND by online friend and YTMND veteran HKK in early 2006. I immediately loved the site, and joined on April 30, 2006. I later made several average YTMND's before stepping it up somewhat and making slightly above average sites.

I used to chat on Vent under the handle "9 kilo straight chicken," an obvious parody of "20 pound gay turkey." I was banned after ear-raping people by playing a square wave with the Wave volume on my computer maximized as well as my outbound volume on Vent. I currently chat on HKK's Vent. hostname: vent25.lightspeed.com port number: 5256

Why I am a conservative

  • A politician in Washington who has never held a job outside of politics in his entire life doesn't have a better handle on what to do with my money than I do.
  • I don't resent wealthy people. To the contrary, I want to become one someday.
  • Government policies should be based on whether or not they work and whether they are constitutional, not on whether they make the people advocating them feel nice or mean.
  • I'm not a victim. You're not a victim. 99 times out of 100, the person on television screaming about how he's a victim isn't a victim either. If you're not happy with your life, it's your responsibility to fix it, not the government's.
  • I don't get upset that the federal government doesn't care about me. In fact, I'd be pleased if it forgets that I exist.
  • Human beings are inherently superior to animals. That doesn't mean we should mistreat them or take them for granted, but it does mean that what's good for humankind is more important than what's good for animals.
  • I am a citizen of the United States, not of the world. As such, my loyalty will always belong to the U.S. and its people, not to any other nation, group of nations, or any sort of world governing body.
  • Women and men are different, should be treated differently, and are not interchangeable. There are jobs women tend to be better at than men and vice-versa. There are ways a man behaves that women shouldn't behave in and vice-versa.
  • There are no fantastic new programs left for the federal government to implement.
  • It isn't the job of the federal government to make us successful. It's the job of the federal government to create an environment that allows us to make ourselves successful.
  • Citizens of the United States have more to be proud of than the people of other countries. Every one of us should cherish this country and thank God that we've been given the privilege of being part of such a great nation.
  • The market and private industry almost always do a better job of allocating resources than the federal government could ever hope to do.
  • Morals matter. If America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great. If that ever happens, it would be a tragedy, not just for us and our children, but for the whole world.
  • Out of every 100 new ideas that come along, at least 99 will be inferior to the traditional responses which they propose to replace. No one man, however brilliant or well-informed, can come in one lifetime to such fullness of understanding as to safely judge and dismiss the customs or institutions of his society, for those are the wisdom of centuries of experiment in the laboratory of history.
  • People of all races should be treated equally. Any laws, whether we're talking about Jim Crow laws or affirmative action, that do otherwise are immoral, unconstitutional, and un-American.
  • Having a government that is too involved in our lives is far more of a threat than a government that isn’t involved enough.
  • My priorities are God, family, and country, in that order.
  • Our tax rate is too high as it is. If it's not producing enough revenue for Washington, D.C. then they should start trying to live within their means instead of asking us to pony up more money.
  • Life begins at the moment of conception. We have an obligation to speak up for the children that are being exterminated via abortion since they can't speak up for themselves.
  • The point of allowing people to emigrate to this country should be to benefit the people who are already here. With that in mind, everyone who wants to become an American citizen should come here legally, learn English, and assimilate.
  • I believe in equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome.
  • The debt we have in this country isn't because you haven't given enough of your money to Washington. It's because the politicians in Washington have spent too much money.
  • Southerners, white males, the rich, business owners, Republicans, Christians, and the other groups that leftists look down their noses at deserve every bit as much respect and protection under the law as leftists' favorite protected classes and minority groups.
  • There is a meaningful difference between tolerating behavior and deeming it to be acceptable or good.
  • If we lose our freedom in this country, it won't be because of a foreign invader. It'll be because our own government took it away from us a bit at a time with one law after another designed to "help" us.
  • We have a moral obligation to leave a better America to our children than our parents left to us.
