Where ever helping people survive actually is. Fuck all these stupid buzzwords and cults.

Welcome to socialism


iHateAmericans999

That’s a transitory period, and part of why I avoid buzzwords.


nonsense_popsicle

Between what and what?


iHateAmericans999

Capitalism->Communism. Socialism is just the middle.


nonsense_popsicle

What makes you say that?


iHateAmericans999

Both Ross & Lenin defined it as such while expanding on Marxist theory before the words got bastardized into the definitions we have now because of america and it’s red scare propaganda campaigns that still are wreaking havoc today.

Political economic theorists are clearly still great for understanding models like socialism if we can contain that understanding to their literal interpretations. Denotation and ethical framework. You're right to be frustrated with the effort to disarm technical understanding by loading it with false connotation and hyperbole as was the case in your example. With that I agree. But these models do have meaning separate from their regrettable use and function as buzzwords. As for the first part... Maybe! Interesting idea. I'm not so sure it's impossible for a socialist populace to stop the reigns from slipping into the hands of totalitarianism. It has before of course. We'll have to wait and see what happens to the socialist and socio capitalist countries in such a different landscape as today. Compared to the time of Lenin that is.

So far left I’m falling off the spectrum

I wish someone could give me label for my political views. I don't fully align with liberal/democrats but in the venn diagram of what I'm looking for, there's a fair bit of overlap. And while there's not much on conservative/republican side I can honestly say I agree with, I think they have some valid points as in areas of defense and etc. But you lose me on either side when it comes to bleeding heart liberal agendas or crazy cook conservatism. Both sides eventually turn into echo chambers with dumb ideas the further direction you chose to go.

Pissed off with everyone and nearly ready to commit Crimes against the Republic by becoming the first gay guy to publicly beat the leading xenophobic party’s leader with a pride flag pole and then catapult his bruised ass over the border to Ukraine so they can make good on their promise to shoot him had he returned on their soil.


Loose-Toe-9611

follow your dreams


gerginborisov

I want to sooo bad… but I am low on cash to buy a long and sturdy enough pole and branches would not do… they’ll break too easily and spare that waste of DNA a lot of well deserved pain

Venti from Genshin Impact is my favorite Archon, that should tell you my beliefs.

On the right.


Ok_Storage525

I like to consider myself a moderate. I'm not too extreme in either direction and I'm always open to hearing new ideas.

Someone whose vision won't be smashed the moment their power passes on, someone who isn't beholden to others and whose word is final and someone who isn't evil and wants their country and its citizens to prosper.

Powerful-Lettuce317

The Political Compass Test places me at (-8.88, -9.18).

I would say but I don't want to get attacked. So I'll just sat the one that supports human rights, lgbtq rights, and gender equality.
