(WARNING: these aren’t necessarily MINE. They’re POSSIBLES]
The political and philosophical leanings of Left-libertarianism, Liberal Humanism, and Pluralism as applied to Kenneth Udut’s vast array of interests can inform a multi-dimensional perspective that emphasizes personal freedom, diversity, equality, and cooperation. Here’s how Kenneth might channel his interests into a set of coherent drives and directions:
**Freedom, Autonomy, and Self-expression**: These are fundamental to left-libertarianism. Kenneth’s interests in philosophy, psychology, cognitive science, consciousness, perception, and emotion might motivate him to explore and express his individuality and to support others in doing the same. His focus on personal space, ADHD, Asperger syndrome, and autism spectrum might lead him to advocate for understanding, acceptance, and accommodations for neurodiverse individuals.
**Pursuit of Knowledge and Understanding**: Liberal Humanism places a strong emphasis on the intrinsic value of knowledge and understanding. Kenneth’s interests in mathematics, logic, linguistics, neuroscience, computer programming, and cultural studies can be seen as striving for a comprehensive understanding of human existence and experience. His pursuits in epistemology, ontology, truth, understanding, and knowledge signify a philosophical endeavor to explore the nature and limits of human knowledge.
**Respect for Diversity and Pluralism**: Left-libertarianism values diversity and the coexistence of different lifestyles and opinions. Kenneth’s interests in diversity, respect, empathy, inclusivity, multilingualism, culture, and dialect embody a commitment to understanding, accepting, and appreciating human diversity. His advocacy for individuals with disabilities (e.g., Deafblindness) and conditions (e.g., Autism spectrum, ADHD) can further this commitment.
**Commitment to Social Equality**: Left-libertarianism advocates for a society in which resources and opportunities are equitably distributed. Kenneth’s interests in fairness, universalism, education, child development, self-direction, achievement, harmony, orderliness, professionalism, and generosity embody this commitment.
**Promotion of Environmental Stewardship**: A respect for nature is central to left-libertarianism. Kenneth’s interest in environmental stewardship, environmental sounds, properties, ecology, and climate reflects a dedication to promoting ecological consciousness and protecting the natural world.
**Technological Innovation and Freedom**: Left-libertarianism champions the freedom of information and innovation. Kenneth’s interest in open-source technologies, data compression, internet archive, World Wide Web, HTML5, FreeDOS, artificial intelligence, and algorithms demonstrate a commitment to technological advancement and digital freedom.
**Engagement with Scientific Exploration**: The pursuits of scientific knowledge and understanding are valued in liberal humanism. Kenneth’s interests in biology, physics, neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, sense of smell, problem-solving, the scientific method, and research reveal a deep engagement with scientific exploration and discovery.
These drives and directions are hypothetical interpretations based on Kenneth’s array of interests as understood through the lens of Left-libertarianism, Liberal Humanism, and Pluralism. However, individual beliefs and motivations may vary.

After a few iterations (going through green politics/Existentialism-Pragmatism then to Progressivism/Social Liberalism + Humanism, and finally to Left-libertarianism / Liberal Humanism / Pluralism, I asked ChatGPT4 to take another look at a list of topics that seemed to represent me and try to deduce drives when seen through those lenses.
