I hate labeling myself. I am a registered republican and vote that way, but that doesn't mean that I wholeheartedly embrace every single idea or opinion that has been ascribed to the "right wing". Yet, all you have to do is mention a candidate you voted for, and it's so easy for someone else to start painting you with this brush that is coated with their own preconceptions of "what you must believe".
So, I guess it is better for me personally to just rise above the whole concept of categorizing myself like that. No way in hell everyone neatly fits into box a, or box b. As humans we are just too complex for that.
I flirted with polarizing a little, but found that I was interested in both types, light and dark. I didn't like the idea of being a darkworker and basically hurting other people who got in my way, and I didn't like the idea of being a lightworker and sacrificing all of my own personal happiness to the greater good.
