I don't believe you, you use Lemmy. You are at least somewhat nerd.

With politics, I think the term you want is "wonk".

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 11 hours ago

Not necessarily, a wonk (e.g. a policy wonk) is not analytically intelligent but may be emotionally intelligent.

A nerd and a wonk may have the same area of interest, but different approaches.

So you're reasoning that you're not a nerd is that you're an anarchist? I got some bad news for you...
