    there are only two kinds of political positions: common sense (i.e. agrees with me), and mental illness.

      People putting fascism and Nazism in auth-center understood nothing about these ideologies. They’re auth-right all the way.

        It’s kind of silly to rank them by which one is “more right” compared to the others, it also doesn’t necessarily map on to harms caused.

        But yeah that space could at least be empty and shift everything right. Obviously the matrix is bullshit to begin with though

      Arguably the Fully Automated Luxury Space Gay Communism was much less authoritarian than indicated.

      The post image was way better. Using the political compass unironically is dumb because reducing complex ideologies onto a 2d plane is so insanely reductive that the whole thing is just stupid.

      I would like to hear the rationale for putting Buddhist theocracy to the right of Christian theocracy. Not saying it’s wrong; I don’t know enough about Buddhism to have a stance. But I’m familiar with Christianity and it’s hard to imagine anything out-fasching it.

        “buddhism” is just a term to describe any worldview that comes from south-east asia. there’s more variety within buddhism than within christianity, and there you can find a whole lot of disagreements and different ways of life already.

        Idk more kinds of Christians maybe? The spectrum is real broad 50k plus completely different sects. Ones like the UCC (United Church of Christ) come to mind as being alright. Still wouldn’t want any religion based government system though.

      But .ml told me that all forms of liberalism are actually fascism so most of the bottom half should be in authright.

      I’m not super hip on the terms… but which one of those little boxes means I can grow a garden fed by the composed corpses of the rich fuckers who think they’re better than us while focusing on helping my neighbors?

      what’s the belief that capitalism can work and can stay aligned with individual freedoms whilst providing a social security net, as long as a strict upper cap on wealth is unrelentingly enforced[1], such that the richest person in the world can only be 5x richer than the median person?
