Alocke, 65

My connection with the libertarian community isn't super strong...yet. I was a lifelong Democrat, feminist, and lived alternative lifestyles only to find myself in a rather dejected state once the "corona" debacle began.

I am a naturopath by trade and have taught and consulted with Germanische Heilkunde (Germanic New Medicine) for 16 years. I lecture and present around the world, but mostly in the US. I work virtually and am well established. Because of my understandong of actual biology and pathology, i know that the "science" they presented to take away our rights was false.

I was censored, belittled, and defamed. What I had always thought of "my government" became an entity I couldn't even comprehend anymore. I, and many in my tribe, were rather adrift politically.

When the debacle began to end, I knew I needed to seek community with politically minded folks who were closer to what I believed. I no longer had a government. I don't believe I'll ever be a Republican and I'll probably never be a Democrat again. Then I remembered Libertarianism.

I hooked up with LOLA which is more Latin American/S. American libertarian organization for women. I was intrigued by them and began to learn more about libertarianism.

I grew up in New Hampshire where the license plate reads: Live Free or Die. I have always believed this and it appears that Libertarians are much more closely aligned wiht the "live free" part than the other political parties.

I am appalled at what has been our govenment for the past 5 years and sought out a local soverienty group to take mysefl out of citizenship (enslaved). I am in this process and will continue on this path until I feel that i am complete with it.

My marriage did not survive the corona debacle. While we remain very good friends, our married life was not satisfactory for either of us.

I have been divorced for 2 yrs and am now looking to date again.
