How would you describe your political beliefs without labels?

For better or worse, political labels are often used as shortcuts to express our views without having to explain them. Sometimes people become attached to labels for their familiarity, other times for their exoticism. But labels that apply to groups are, by their nature, inexact.

Therefore, I would like to ask people to explain their core views without using any such terms. Words like “Republican,” “Democrat,” “conservative,” “liberal,” “libertarian,” “moderate,” “leftist,” “centrist,” “progressive,” and so forth are out. Substantive descriptions are in.
