What if you support these policies, but don't actively promote them because you're there to do work, not discuss politics?

What if you have reservations about specific things that have been lumped in with "left" politics, which you believe are inherently not "left" and do not benefit humanity?

( Not trying to reach for the 1984 language, but it's the most accurate terminology I can come up with.. :\ )
