[[File:Humanismpix.png]] Rights
Being a liberal, I believe in human rights. These rights would include things like: gender equality, freedom of speech, the right to education, ect. These are rights are essential to a free society.

[[File:PCB-Utility.png]] Ethics
I view my morality through the lens of what causes the most happiness and least amount of suffering. Hence the name utility. I combine this utilitarian thought with secular humanism, which is a philosophy which states that we as humans are the center of knowledge and human development, while embracing secular ethics and rejecting religious ones.

[[File:Materialism.png]] Metaphysical Beliefs
I'm a materialist, and rationalize the world through the scientific way of how we as humans study it. I believe that everything is of results which are material, and anything that isn't material doesn't exist. Along with this, I hold a deterministic metaphysical view, and don't believe in free will. Everything in the universe is determined by how the material world interacts with it.

[[File:Atheist.png]] Religious Beliefs
If it wasn't obvious from my name, I am an atheist. More specifically, an agnostic atheist. The reasoning is that I don't personally like religion since it doesn't interest me. I've been an atheist my entire life for as long as I can remember it, since I've never have personally believed in god.

[[File:Prog-u.png]] Cultural Beliefs
Kaylo Liberalism is in favor of an egalitarian society were all members are treated equally regardless of their backroud, race, disability, sex or gender. In this regard, he is progressive. Although, he does have some mixed opinions on progressive ideas like political correctness and affirmative action, since he believes that political correctness can be overbearing at times while affirmative action gives an unfair advantage to certain groups. Outside of these specific circumstances, he is socially progressive. Also, he puts less emphasis on cultural war issues since he believes that these can be distracting towards economic issues which he deems as more important.

[[File:Liberal Democracy.png]] Civic Structure
Kaylo Liberalism believes that the will the people is the most important, and supports a liberal democracy. Seeing as liberal democracy has advanced societal achievements unlike any other governmental system and has created countries the best living conditions, although he does realize that liberal democracy isn't perfect and does have its notable flaws. With this, he supports governmental reform and a semi-direct democratic parliamentary republic as his ideal form of government

[[File:Civlibert.png]] Civil Liberties
Kaylo Liberalism supports civil liberties and bodily autonomy so long as you're not infringing on other people's rights. This would include the decriminalization of victimless acts such as: pornography and prostitution, euthanasia, abortion, and other things like the right to own guns. These beliefs are aligned with the harm principle, which comes from his civil libertarianism.

[[File:Social corpratism.png]] Economic Model
Kaylo Liberalism's main economic model would consist of neo-corporatism, which is a system that utilizes economic tripartite and compromise through labor unions and employers through the government to solve the issue of class conflict. With this, he supports an economy made up labor unions to serve this purpose, along with worker co-operatives. Although, worker co-operatives wouldn't be the only business model, they would be encouraged through government tax breaks and subsidizes.

[[File:Envi.png]] Environmental Policy
Kaylo Liberalism realizes that the environment is important to protect and preserve, he supports enviornmental policies such as creating green jobs and increasing carbon taxes to discourage environmentally destructive production. Although, preserving the environment and economic development should be balanced together, since the economy can be repaired while the environment can't, but at the same time the people shouldn't have to suffer significant quality of life reduction over environmental policies.
