"Anti-establishment" is not a coherent position, but "non-establishment aligned" is!

After all, just being against something doesn't tell us what we are for, and the idea that everything establishment is wrong is madness, even if a large proportion of it may be wrong.


Instead, every issue needs to be addressed on its own terms, rather than written off or accepted purely because it is the establishment, or orthodox, view.

The "non-establishment" view, in contrast, is not affected by whether something is accepted by the majority or not.

Instead, it takes everything on its own terms and is not unduly influenced by the opinions of others, particularly those who know little about the subject at hand or who blindly push an agenda they have been conditioned to believe, with little or no true or balanced knowledge of the matter.
