She is considered a critic of the street violence tactics of some members of the anti-globalization movement.[2] She is known in movements for separatism and secession. Her writings focus on governance in smaller political units.[3] Moore also argues that "there is a link between sunspot activity and human tendencies to mass action and social and political change".[4][5]

Moore is considered a feminist and a libertarian.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

She has been active in anti-war and war tax resistance movements since the late-1970s, most recently with the DC Anti-War Network.[13][14][15][16][17][18]

She is author of a book on the Waco siege entitled The Davidian Massacre.[19][20][21][22][23][24][25]
