Core Worldview

I’m a rugged individualist. I believe in self-reliance, decentralization, and local control.

Bloated federal bureaucracy? It’s the enemy of freedom and efficiency. Power belongs with the states, with the people, with the builders and creators - not distant, unaccountable institutions.

I stand for tradition and the foundational principles that built this country.

I don’t wear “America First” as a slogan. I use it as a filter:

• Is this made here?

• Does this serve our people?

• Does this promote truth, independence, and freedom?

I don’t have time for institutional groupthink, tech-washed bureaucracy, or virtue-signaling fluff. I believe in bold thinking, decisive action, and honest craftsmanship. I respect the grit of entrepreneurs, the soul of artisans, and the silence of the wilderness over boardroom buzzwords or progressive ideology.

In both my brand - and the brands I work with - clarity, authenticity, and personal accountability outweigh trends and algorithms every time.

I believe in:

• Truth before politics.

• People before platforms.

• Craft before clout.

• Freedom before comfort.

I'm not anti-technology. I'm anti-friction. I embrace AI, automation, and storytelling tools - so long as they sharpen the message, not dull the soul.

Where Does This Fit Philosophically?

I don’t slot cleanly into any single system. But if you had to map it, here’s where I land:

#1. Christian Libertarianism (Modernized)

• conservative values. Personal liberty. Limited government.

• Moral order through culture, not federal enforcement.

• Families - not the state - shape society.

#2. Paleo-Conservatism

• Tradition, localism, national sovereignty.

• Anti-globalist. Anti-empire. Pro-front porch, pro-farm, pro-church.

• Champions subsidiarity: decisions should be made as close to home as possible.

#3. Agorism (Tempered)

• Not fully anti-government, but I believe in parallel systems.

• Build local. Own your platform. Create outside the system when the system’s broken.

#4. Stoic Realism (With Grit)

• The world is chaos. Don’t be ruled by it.

• Discipline. Simplicity. Do what’s required - not what’s expected.

Not a Philosopher. A Builder.

I’m not here to debate abstractions. I’m here to build.

My worldview is forged, not theorized. It’s tested in business, in experience, in content, in strategy - and in the brands I help shape.

If I had to boil it down to a motto?

“Build small, build true, build the brand, and let the competition burn itself out.”
