'''The Great British New Left''' is a [[File:Demsocstar.png]] {{PCB|Democratic_Socialism| Socialist}} and [[File:Prog.png]] {{PCB|Progressivism| Progressive}} political belief held by [[User:MrNoNonsense| MrNoNonsense]] advocating for more Left Centre-left consolidation within the [[File:UKLab.png]] '''British Labour Party'''. He supports the parties more [[File:Onenatlab.png]] moderate leanings, while personally preferring the parties more [[File:TonyBenn.png]] leftist tendencies. despite this, he is an ardent critic of the administrations of [[File:New_Labourism.png]] '''Tony Blair''' and [[File:Brownism.png]] '''Gordon Brown,''' giving slightly more credit to the latter. He is an aggressive opponent of [[File:Starmer2.png]] '''Keir Starmer,''' considering him to be a [[File:Mach.png]] Political Opportunist. He is also a vocal supporter of the [[File:WPD.png]] NHS strikes [[File:Welf.png]] and an open critic of [[File:Transphobia.png]] Transphobic sentiments, seeing them as a bi-product of a [[File:Alt-shite.png]] Manufactured Culture War [[File:CorpoMask.png]].
'''{{Quote|quote="emancipatory politics must always destroy the appearance of a ‘natural order’, must reveal what is presented as necessary and inevitable to be a mere contingency, just as it must make what was previously deemed to be impossible seem attainable."|speaker=[[File:Fisher.png]] Mark Fisher }}
He proposes a [[File:LeftUnity.png]] Reconciled Left-Wing Coalition within the Labour Party, with the intention of ensuring victory against the much more uniform [[File:Con-t.png]] Conservative establishment.
 
He is also an advocate for an electoral coalition with the Breakthrough Party, the Green Party, and other smaller democratic socialists party such as Tower Hamlet's Aspire Party. Of course, this plan is primarily aimed towards britain, but it is applicable to other areas because of how compromising it is designed to be.
'''The Great British New Left''' is a theoretical [[File:Marx.png]] Marxist and [[File:Fisher.png]] Fisherite Movement advocated by [[User:MrNoNonsense|MrNoNonsense]] involving the [[File:Techsoc.png]] Technological overthrow of the British Government by [[File:Demsocstar.png]][[File:Revolution.png]]Any and all means[[File:LeftAcc.png]][[File:Insurrection.png]]. These beliefs are largely centred around the [[File:UKLab.png]] British Labour Party, which it sees as a sufficient host to supply the movement. Culturally, the movement advocates for a complete [[File:Laicism.png]] Separation of the Church of England from the state, the [[File:Soctrans.png]] Advancement of worker's condition through body augmentation [[File:Left-post-humanism.png]], and the reform of [[File:Situ.png]] sensationalized media. Socially, the movement advocates for a new social path, reconciling the [[File:SJW.png]] Cultural left movement of the day to form a new, technologically oriented counter-culture movement, and economically, it takes a [[File:NEP.png]] Planned Market approach to socialism, seeing the market not as a way to make capitalism 'friendlier', but as a way to enhance the condition of the working class in the new society until markets can be done away with.
Being from Manchester, he is also a strong supporter of [[File:Burn.png]] {{PCBA|Burnhamism| Andy Burnham}}.

I'll write about my influences from Fisher, Gramsci and Debord at a later date.


=Beliefs=
=Beliefs=


==Economic Policy==
==Economic Policy==
I believe that the economy, locally and nationally, must prioritise those who control the means of production. Britain must begin the process of renationalising industries, especially in cases such as Royal Mail, where privatisation has led to nothing but mass strikes and detrimental working conditions. To this extent, I largely support [[File:Corbynism-ball.png]] Corbyn's approach to the economy; utilise idealism to give the workers their fair share, but utilise pragmatism to regulate the economy while these actions are being taken. for this reason, I refer to my economics as [[File:RegulationMarkSoc.png]] Social Regulationist pragmatically, and [[File:SocRegu.png]] Regulationary Socialist Ideally.


===Unions===
===Taxation===  
 
Taxation must be punitive on the upper class in society. Taxes will be separated by goal; some taxes will exist for the purpose of revenue, and other taxes will exist for the purpose of restricting usage (I.e carbon taxes, taxes on dangerous narcotics and other drugs). Both taxes will be utilised to stagnate the growth of private industry in to fit rigidly in line with the [[File:NEP.png]] New Economic Policy, which will see limited private industry flourish within state bounds for the purpose of developing the industrial conditions needed for a proper socialistic revolution.


Radicalised by the worker's strikes that plague Britain's politics today, I have no further opinion than that unions are the core of our society, and that they are in a functioning democracy, an absolute necessity for a cooperative society. Unions are, in a [[File:Con-t.png]] Tory country, the last line of defence for the common worker. I am no [[File:synd.png]] Syndicalist, I feel there is better governance to be had from the party, but I can say with firm belief that I stand with the unions, through all of their ventures. In conclusion, i refer to myself as  a [[File:SyndieSam.png]] Trade Unionist, and sympathise with [[File:synd.png]] Syndicalists.
===Government Spending===
===My Definition Of [[File:Soc.png]] Socialism===
[[File:Soc.png]] Socialism is inherently a very broad ideology, but in the context of my ideology, i see it as the inevitable [[File:Ideal.png]] Idealist future, once elections are won and the benefits are made clear to the people, socialism can be achieved. I also believe in [[File:LeftUnity.png]] Left-Collaborationism as a core tenant of my believes, to the testament that hopefully, long after I am gone, a true utopic Communist society can be achieved. Although I personally would never refer to myself as a Communist, I still see a Communist future as inevitable, defining it as a stateless, classless, moneyless society.
[[File:ormarxf.png]] Marx got many a thing right in regards to the exploitative relationship between the upper and lower classes, but he also had some [[File:Anti-Semitic.png]] Choice words about jewish people as part of his clear hatred of religion, the kind of things that could not be justified as merely [[File:StateathFedora.png]] State Athiest. While i personally refer to myself as a [[File:Cathwor.png]] Catholic, and define my opinions on class and the working class as stemming from the teachings of [[File:Jesus.png]] Jesus Christ, I still recognise the importance of the seperation of Church from Politics. For these reasons, I refuse to define my beliefs as 'Marxist', as I believe that we should not define ourselves through the theories of other people, and should instead strive to identify ourselves by our own theories. So to conclude this section, I define myself as highly sympathetic of [[File:ormarxf.png]] Marxists, while abstaining from referring to myself as such, and moderately sympathetic to [[File:Commie.png]] Communists, only not to the extent of being an apologists for the crimes committed by such groups. I define myself not as a [[File:Demsocstar.png]] Democratic Socialist, but as a [[File:Soc.png]] Socialist, since i believe that true socialism directly implies democracy.


===Conclusion===
Most Social Care and welfare institutions would be brought under state control- in the early days, private healthcare and private education will exist and flourish for the purpose of temporarily creating a gap in quality of care between the two (the government will pay for attendance of these institutions if it is ruled this level of care is required), but eventually the National Healthcare Service will be expanded and it's private shares will be bought off.
In Conclusion, I describe my economic values as [[File:RegulationMarkSoc.png]] Regulationarily Socialist, [[File:WPD.png]] Trade Unionist, and [[File:ethsoc.png]] Moderately Socialist (although i refer to my economics as Moderately Socialist, i refer to my ideology as a whole as [[File:Soc.png]] Socialist, as opposed to [[File:Demsocstar.png]] Democratic Socialism, as i believe true socialism implies democracy.)
 
===Case Study: Alleviating The Cost Of Living Crisis===
 
Starting hypothetically tomorrow, the movement would immediately remove the ban on onshore wind farms, institute a windfall tax to pay for new green energy infrastructure, and begin the nationalisation of the small gas companies that have been cooperating with Putin's russia. They would then start instituting further taxes on BP and Shell, and use the income generated from that to start a green new deal, providing a revitalisation of the energy industry, supported by the nationalisation of United Utilities, which should ease the burden on the people suffering the most from the crisis.
<ref> Post-Rewrite notice: this has remained mostly true, that this would happen, but this is still early days, and I'm no economist.</ref>

WIP
===The Rights of an Individual===
 
The Equality acts protections do not go far enough in ensuring the safety of Transgender and Genderqueer individuals from discrimination. Womens-only training courses will be offered in the short-term to culturally move the myth that women are less skilled than men, and an enforced elimination of the gender pay gap in state institutions will be implemented. Reported cases of pay gaps will be taken seriously, and will be a topic that can be addressed with the relevant union (likely the TUC, which will become an empowered organisation.)
===The Blue and The Black===
 
Alternative Right and Alternative Lite discourse ignores basic biological factual information. It ignores the inherent fact that 'Nature', as it so seeks to appeal to, is a phenomenon. It is not fact. What is natural is simply what has changed, and what will likely change again. This 'State Of Nature' they pray to like a false deity is as nonexistent as their perceived supremacy. As [[File:ContraPointsism.png]] Someone else wisely put, 'When someone attacks someone specifically, they are not to be persuaded, they are to be defeated'.
<ref>Post-Note: this remains completely true, but it accepts the logic of the Alt-Right a bit too much. </ref>
 
===The Pink, and it's relation to the Yellow===
 
'Social Justice Warriorism' is a uniquely false notion. Truly, there is no unified movement that makes these people one group, merely innocent people who have been misled and polarised by an aggressive capitalistic media state. Capitalism created this movement to counter it's own creation, the aforementioned alternative lite. The fight between the two was created to serve capitalism, to sell a t-shirt, a bumper sticker, or a subscription service. Put simply, it [[File:Debord.png]] "is not a collection of images, but a social relation among people, mediated by images.”
 
===The Church===


==Best/Worst Parts Of My Ideology?==
I am no longer a Catholic. The Church as an institution, and all churches as institutions exist to prolong their own stays, and create fanatics complicit in their own subjugation. Morality is a myth propagated by church institutions on the simple basis of "they have always been propagated". While morality can serve the state in some instances, in most circumstances all it does is highlight the hypocrisy in the oppression of the ruling class that demonised the labour movements of the day as "immoral" and "godless". Short-term the state shall be secular, long term atheist, and end term godless entirely.


=How I Would Have Voted In Labour Party Leadership Elections=
===Case Study: The Culture War===
* 1976: [[File:TonyBenn.png]] Tony Benn (Withdrew In Final Ballot)
 
* 1980: [[File:Lpop.png]] Micheal Foot
The Culture War is produced as a byproduct of Capitals insistence on this fight between two sides, both blinded to the truth of the matter. They are being puppeteered, funded by each other, by corporate opposition, with the unified goal of marketeering ''around'' the conflict. Capital doesn't get involved in this dispute, after all, [[File:Fisher.png]] "The role of capitalist ideology is not to make an explicit case for something in the way that propaganda does, but to conceal the fact that the operations of capital do not depend on any sort of subjectively assumed belief." Capital does not need to partake directly, but merely hint that they have taken a side to appeal to a certain audience, and profit massively. Truly, the brunt of the issue is, ''WE'' have been fooled by this narrative. It is US who are taking the blame for their misdeeds. Because a nation divided over whether or not a drag queen should be reading to children (Which by the way, who the fuck cares), is NOT divided over whether or not Capitalism has a right to exist at all.

*1988:[[File:TonyBenn.png]] Tony Benn
==Foreign Policy==
*1992: [[File:LeftSocdem-Alt.png]] John Smith (Reluctantly)
 
*1994: [[File:UKLab.png]] John Prescott (Very Reluctantly)
===Preface: The Nation===
*2007: [[File:Bernst.png]] John McDonnell (Not enough votes to oppose Brown)
 
*2010: [[File:Burn.png]] Andy Burnham (I had to think about this, because on one hand i dont mind [[File:Onenatlab.png]] Ed Milliband, and on the other,[[File:HardLeft.png]] Diane Abbott was the Socialist Campaign Group's candidate. but with hindsight, i decided i had to vote for the man who has done the most locally to earn my respect.)
I would like to start this by stating what i believe to be a non-contradiction. I detest the nation. I detest the nation-state. In spite of this, i am a nationalist, and i actively support nationalists and nationalism. How, you may ask? Simple. The way the world has evolved, the way the situation in which we live has developed, the nation is nothing short of a complete and utter requirement. Otherwise would be, i believe, as far as the current system dictates, Currently impossible. Thoroughly. In fact, I believe the nation is such a requirement that I believe that to be a nationalist is the only viable option ''as of here and now.'' Ideally, a nation would not exist, but ideals are idealised, and the cold, bitter reality is that to survive in a world of wolves feasting on weak carcasses, to be proud of yourself is an option to which no alternative exists. The nation, despite it's socially constructed nature, is needed. In essence, to this part, I am simultaneously an Alternate Globalist and a Universal Nationalist. Make of this what you will, Being either puts you in my favour.

===The People===
*2020: [[File:HardLeft.png]] Rebecca Long-Bailey
 
Ethnicity, however, is not. What truly separates man from itself? It's shared culture and experiences? Or do you believe that the root cause of separation runs skin deep, that one pigment is 'better off' than another. Truly, the only thing that seperates man in observable science, is the labels we have attached to ourselves, to describe certain behavioural similarities in groups. Harmless, of course. But it has the potential to cause unspeakable harm, segregation, enslavement, inferiority in numbers, terrorism, genocide, and mass death in the name of one group over all the others. But for now, all this potential for misery remains locked away behind one powerful single word. 'British'. 'Frisian'. 'French'. Let us keep these words the same for now, and pray to above that they will never again activate to violent effect.
 
===The Great Political Binary===
 
West, East. Rich, Poor. First, Second and Third. Both corrupted by the very nature of the ideals that their ancestors tried to instill onto them. The Americans have taken the role of the British Empire, flipping places to their side on the very whim, revelling in pure unadulterated capitalism leaving nothing but waste and despair in their path. The Russians, the Chinese, have inherited the legacy of their founding autocracy, truly, the spirit of tsar and emperor never left the two countries. With such a large number of people and land respectively, Autocracy comes geographically natural to the two powers, leaving the world in a standoff between worse and worse yet, mediocre and deathly. What is right is sacrificed in the name of who is on our side, and who isn't. I want britain to play no further part in this charade.
 
===Case Study: Ukraine===
 
Imagine yourself being a Ukrainian refugee. Starving, Hopeless, alone. Forced to leave your home because of circumstances out of your control. Now imagine yourself being a citizen of Donetsk or Donbas. Similarly, you are in destitution by an incompetent puppet government paraded by Putin's autocratic regime. But you are not ukrainian, no. You speak russian, and you live a russian life. To you, to be Russian is not a question of being allied to Putin's regime, but simply being who you are. I refuse to support Putin's illegal invasion into Ukraine, but similarly, I refuse to allow for the oppression of the russian minority within Ukraine. Universal Nationalism is universal. If a group wants freedom, and can prove so, it must be granted. Of course, i wish for this to be under a different russian government, but Ukraine's hand in this issue has gone far enough. Ukraine has tried and failed multiculturalism. Should ukraine be punished for any action? No, they are being invaded. In conclusion, Russia's war in ukraine comes first, Russian people's right to whatever sovereignty they want will, and I mean ''will'', come afterwards.
 
==Civic Policy==
 
===The Government===
 
The primary goal of a governmental system should be to serve the people. This remains true even after my rereading of Lenin's State And Revolution; the state exists to serve the working class. Society will be governed largely by workers councils (likely organised under the TUC or a similar more state run institution) that will make local decisions for business and local areas, essentially embodying Lenin's original idea for democratic centralism, while also emphasising the importance of workers co-operatives in the new society. Long term, unions will be phased out as the state itself will be representative of it's people, but this will be done peacefully. Every arm of government will be subject to critique by any citizen, and this will be co-ordinated via these worker's councils.
 
===The People===
 
The idea of the people controlling the country in bourgeois democracy is a laughable notion- the bourgeois know what they did when they created representative democracy- they created a system in which people would be discouraged from seeking other options, and no change would be possible because no major party wanted change. They created the ultimate parasite- a system where nothing could fundamentally change. This is not democracy, this is a dictatorship. This is a rule of the Neoliberal Capitalist Realism for the benefit of the front bench, who line their pockets with gold. No more! The only way the people can be truly represented is with a system governed by them on the local level, but representing them on the executive level- a proletariat democracy, if you will. <ref> wink wink nudge nudge I might be a Leninist now </ref>
 
===Case Study: The Houses Of Parliament===
 
Parliament, immediately, would be digitalised. In-person meetings would be restricted to times of emergency, and PMQs, voting on bills, and parliamentary discussion will all be conducted online. Then, the house of lords would be abolished completely, replaced by a house of workers, the individual councils that governs Britain, their numbers as large or as small as is liked- these councils will not be ruled by individual representatives, but would rather submit their opinions on votes digitally in council meetings that can be attended by anyone online or in person. The institution of "parliamentary members" would be completely reworked- these individuals would now serve in a house of representatives by the edge of a knife, at the whim of the people who voted for them. the decision to vote them out would be as simple as an electronic vote. using electronic voting, safeguarded by harsh penalties for electronic electoral interference, all votes would be conducted in much quicker fashion. as a result, representatives would not be expected to serve full terms, creating a dynamic in which the people hold at their disposal the complete control over who represents them in government. All of this would be overseen by a vanguard party which would be neatly divided into factions- whichever of these factions leads at any given time would be irrelevant as all conditions presented by the factions will have been overseen and voted on by all other members.
 
==Cultural Policy==
 
===Preface: On Culture===
 
Culture does not exist. As a concept, a culture is completely made up. Yet a culture is not something that can be done away with as it's development is simply how human beings function, and it is expressed differently in every single individual. As a result of this, culture will be defined by the state and used to it's maximum potential- the most creative, the most exciting, and importantly, the most new, a culture can possibly be.
 
===Neo-Proletkulk===
 
Proletkult was an interesting channel for analysing culture and art and how the two interacted, and it's ideas were worth investigating, but it did not go far enough. The Proletkult should use it's research into art and culture to encourage the rewriting of cultural norms and art boundaries; it should have become a new expression for culture instead of being satisfied with making culture 'flashier'. Proletkult as a concept should embrace an ever changing new, and use it to engage in exciting developments with art, history, culture and the way we see these things develop. moreover, proletkult should have had more power in deciding how these things looked- this should never come to the point where proletkult dictates how culture should look, like with all arms of government Proletkult would govern at the whim of it's members, who could be completely anyone in a profession it covers. Through a state-run avenue for cultural expression and innovation, development of these ideas will undeniably thrive as they did in Soviet Russia's early years. <ref> this is perhaps the last time I agree with early Soviet Russia, almost all of my Leninist inspirations come solely from state and revolution and not from his wartime actions </ref>
 
=Reading List=
 
I've Read more than this, this is a WIP. This is written in the order I read them.
<Center>
=='''[[File:Marx2.png]] Manifesto Of The Communist Party [[File:Orengelsf.png]]'''==
Best described nowadays as a communism primer, nothing more. I didn't understand it the first time I read it, so I re-read it two years ago. 8/10. <br>
 
=='''[[File:AnTory.png]] Homage to Catalonia [[File:CNT.png]][[File:FAI.png]] '''==
While Orwell accurately describes his experiences, he does so in a pompous and arrogant way- as though he is above the syndicalists for having retrospective on revolutions. Doesn't bode well for his later work. 5/10.<br>
 
=='''[[File:Trot.png]] History of the Russian Revolution [[File:Lenin.png]]'''==
For an active participant Trotsky is very good at making an objective statement of the facts of the revolution. I received this book as a loan from a friends mother, who was a huge Russophile. 9/10 for history, 7/10 for ideological connotations.<br>
 
=='''[[File:Fisher.png]] Capitalist Realism: is there no alternative? [[File:Acidcomf.png]] '''==
The first book that actually made me take a step back and think about politics. Reading this, I questioned almost everything I had been taught. Further readings of Fisher only made it more apparent that I had gone too far down the rabbit hole to return to Democratic Socialism. 10/10.<br>
 
=='''[[File:Orthlen.png]] The State and Revolution [[File:Vanguardism.png]][[File:DemCentral.png]][[File:Anti-Socdem.png]] '''==
Lenin articulates his frustrations with contemporary socialism very well here. Furthermore I believe his solutions are pragmatic, workers soviets before october were effective, and his other proposals (The Vanguard, namely) are still relevant today. 8/10. <br>

==[[File:Mega_Yes.png]] 100% Invited to the coalition==
*[[File:Corbynism-ball.png]] [[Corbynism]] - Has some questionable opinions on the Russian-Ukrainian war but that is about it. One of the few leaders in Labour's history who i can say with confidence i support.
*{{Rocksism}} - There is a unique history to anarchism on the wiki, I'm sure you would agree; of course, I've never found myself particularly partial to the ideas of anarchism, but as far as the wiki is concerned, there is a legacy to it. Airisu left, O'Lang retired and Ashley is gone. You are the lost generation of PCB leftwing anarchists. And the massive amount of influence that I have taken from your page? I feel comfortable saying that you are the best anarchist on PCB currently, hands down. Economically, you can just take all I said about Yoda and just magnify it. I just might read synthesis anarchism.
*[[File:TonyBenn.png]] [[Bennism]] - The most moral man to ever sit in parliament. every speech has perfectly described his era, and every opinion has been with the british people in mind. An inspiration to all.
*[[File:NewSundog.png]][https://philosophyball.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Sundog  Sundog] - The Bolshevik movement must accept both the writings of Bogdanov and Lenin to even hope of surviving. We both use Proletkult, and although my use of it is driven by my desire to create an ever-progressive march forward using state run culture and arts facilities to do it, we both use it in the same way and both see it as the driving force behind our beliefs. The man i recommend to you is one Mark Fisher. In any event, you are overwhelmingly correct. I prefer my post-postmodernism to metamodernism though since Postmodernism is the vehicle through with capital today acts and defends itself.
*[[File:Burn.png]] [[Burnhamism]] - The best Soft Left politician, hands down. i have never been a fan of the whole regional sentiment, but living in his Manchester has been an oasis in a Conservative desert. keep on going, Andy.
*[[File:BERNHEism.png]] [https://polcompballanarchy.miraheze.org/wiki/Hendersonism Bernheism] - Ah, you. Onlookers viewing in may wonder why I'd even bother placing someone who seems so contrary to my beliefs so close to the top, but that is a surface level analysis. The truth is, Henderson is a man who understands the system in all it's diversities. Henderson understands how capital uses culture to manipulate society, yet he wants to utilise it instead of break it. He knows how the media creates spectacles to breed conformity and hysteria with the end goal of profit, but he seeks to enhance this function instead of eradicate it. He knows capital reinforces its own critique, Henderson would be the first one out at a leftist protest selling Guevara T-shirts. It was when you had put as a title "Realism forevermore" that I properly understood exactly why I like your ideology so much- we share the same analysis to the letter. You and I are playing the same game, except one of us wants to destroy it, and one of us wants to own it. Let's play together. You'll be spared when it all comes crashing down around you. {{Color|#CC0000|<big><big>Let's have some fun.</big></big>}}
*[[File:KeirHardie.png]] Keir Hardie - The man who started it all. If it wasn't for his Marx-inspired syndicalistic take on Victorian Democracy, Britain would have, i can say with confidence, been a thousand times worse off.
*[[File:Psychlib.png]][[Psychocommunism]] - The apprentice. I don't disagree with you on anything, whatsoever. Our one disagreement is on the labour party, so instead of showering you with the praise I shower you with every day, I'll address that. Labour was born from a cultural movement. It was born from the disgruntled working people, and if manoeuvred right, we very much could purge the factions and return it to it's days of glory. My reason for doing so is that the revitalisation of the Labour Movement would be a great place to then implement cultural reform, as PART of labour reform. Moreso, that party's ghosts have been expunged, Hardie's influence over labour has been exorcised. Cut out of our own party. Through Hardie, this party is the birthright of the working people. We can take it back. We must take it back.{{Color|#CC0000|We will take it back.}}
*[[File:Postcamel.png]] [[Post-Camelism]] - Ah, camel. You lovable scamp. You bastard you. I have attempted to justify my entryism before in ways that have proven so futile that I myself have found myself starting to reject the practice, as you know of course. But I will attempt to explain my entryism here. The proletariat as it currently exists in Britain believes, falsely, that the party that economically represents them is the Labour party. For the people of Britain, it is easier to imagine the conservatives becoming a socialist party than for another socialist party to exist. Does it not logically follow, then, that if the Labour and Co-Operative party led a vanguard for the British people, at least for those people, it would be less of a stretch than the rise of a new party? One of the biggest problems that Galloway's workers party faces is that the left in britain often disagree with his conservatism, which means the only votes he can really get are muslims upset about Palestine. Britain's material conditions forbid any party from claiming the mantle of the working class because of the usurpation of Labour, what I propose is fuelled by democratic nostalgia for certain, but is also, at least partially, a pragmatic decision. Although, as I say, I'm beginning to have my doubts. Camel, you're fantastic. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I'd even believe in. Our debates have been some of my personal favourites. Keep being that strange Ohioan androgynous queen that all of those girls at the mental hospital think you are.

*[[File:TorIcon.png]] [[Torontoism]] - From what i have read, you seem to be quite simply a good Democratic comrade. not a big fan of libertarianism, but I've been living under the Tories. I'm sure you can see why not trusting the government comes as second nature. Also Certified Toronto Boi is absolute fire.
*[[File:Yoda8soup.png]] [[Yoda8soup Thought]] - Honestly, having read through your page, I don't have many things to dispute. I also like Semi-Direct Democracy, I also appreciate the Kautskyist approach to achieving socialism, and I also want some revolution to secure the movement in the short term. again though, not personally a big fan of libertarianism, but I'll be damned if the coalition isn't big enough for anti-authoritarianism.
*[[File:Onenatlab.png]] [[One Nation Labour| Ed Miliband]] - Look, Ed. I get it. You spent your whole life in the shadow of Ralph, with your supposedly more popular brother being an open Blairist. I can admit you might have a bit of ideological confusion. But come on, you basically mimicked Cameron and expected to win! we all saw you up against Boris in PMQs, where was that fire in 2015???
*[[File:Sanders.png]] [[Sandersism| Bernie Sanders]] - Bernie is alright for a social democrat. Other people have already explained better why.
*[[File:Dotdotdotsam-icon.png]] [[.dotdotdotsam Thought]] - Honestly, for a [[File:ML.png]] Marxist-Leninist, you seem to know your stuff. of course, the nature of my ideology requires me to ask that you tone down the anti-revisionism, since revision is the basis of science, and left-wing thinkers have more in common than the right would have us believe, but other than that, you seem to be ok. Also, i gotta appreciate the progressivism, so many MLs just go to conservatism to protect the [[File:OldLeft.png]] Old Left way of thinking. Absolutely amazing art as well, i must say.
*[[File:Cb_vistula.png]] [[Vistula Thought]] - Best describable as a [[File:YellowSynd.png]] Yellow Syndicalist, but between liking Corbyn, Benn, Anti Zionism, the Coalition, and disliking Keith, Blair, and the Tories, i think you have earned the status of Honourary Coalition Member, and i would be happy to call you a comrade.
*[[File:EvolvingSoc.png]] [[Evolutionary Socialism]] - I don't have many notes, to tell the truth. Democratic socialism, revolution under desperate circumstances, it is all here. I fear that your descriptions of ideology may in some places be dominated more by your own personal beliefs then what would be better for the country, but it's all so agreeable that it doesn't really matter anyway.
*[[File:Jefsynd.png]] [[Jefbol Thought]] - A bit radical for my tastes, but you certainly know your stuff. I'd debate your perspectives, but the fact of the matter is you seem to have gone through quite a journey to come to the realisation you are at, and i respect you too much to question the process. also, Sorel was so much more than 'boogeyman natsynd', and i'm glad that you reached that assertion.

I might be aligned towards being anti-praxis these days, but I can't stand here and watch you stumble through social democracy!

*[[File:HelloThere314Icon.png]] [[HelloThere314ism]] - I feel as though there isn't much I can really say, I'm on a time constraint here so I'm going off of part one of "Stirner's new critics" and the info off of your page. As per usual, I love your anti-essentialism. Anti-Essentialism should be the basis of most ideological thought, and escape from the comforts of the "Spiritual" are priority. Of course, there is no point in me restating that I don't understand enough about Stirner, but from what i've read of SNC, he does seem to make a degree of sense. Also, although it's not to my preferences, communism of the abolition of social mediation is very, very commendable. While I still lean on the establishment of a new system, I agree with your stance on it being a societal issue worth devoting that much time to. All in all, you are very knowledgeable, you inspired me to read more theory, and you're still just a very chill guy. With most people, I have times where I doubt their knowledge on a topic, I don't really think I've ever had that with you.
*[[File:Clif.png]] [[Cliffism]] - Tony wasn't bad for a Trotskyist. I Like him more the more i read about him. But militant were just not it, even if they would have been coalition-worthy. Also, there is a lot of Socialist Worker's Party posters around where i live, so make of that what you will.
*[[File:Neokira2.png]] [[Meowxism]] - The degenerate aspects of your personality (a strong opener, I know, but I mean what I say here as a compliment) indicate a step in the right direction, yet I sometimes feel as though the root of your progressivism stems from a more liberal progressive past point as opposed to some revolutionary queer liberation. The outcome, of course is the same so this is a bit of a nitpick. I feel as though your analysis is undercut by a dislike of vague "revisionism", which I commented on when I was a democratic socialist. My statement then, that revision is the basis of science, still remains relatively true to my current opinion of your ideology. Marxism-Leninism is a dated interpretation of how the material conditions of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat should look, and for alternatives, perhaps it would be worth reading some early Lenin. Marx, again, is outdated in his hegelian dialectics, and to "revise" so to speak, this, would allow for a much more nuanced analysis. Material conditions, and the general idea of Oppressor and Oppressed, of course, remain true, but I know you can broaden your horizons beyond that. In summary, you're better than this, but this in of itself isn't the worst.
*[[File:SerbSoc.png]] [[Serbian Socialism]] - Tito is alright, actually. i quite like reading about the stuff he did. other than that, though, you seem a bit ConSoc-y. also Corbyn did not ruin socialism's name all over the world, the man could barely get coverage in britain.
 
*[[File:Merid.png]] [[Meridionalism]] - Well, getting the obvious out of the way, you are quite economically in line with my beliefs, but, addressing the elephant in the room, i dont think i can in good conscience throw my support behind southern secession. now what i interpret your idea of the south seceding as is a radical expansion of the single issue of states rights, which, of course, are an integral part of the union. but the only real reason southern identity exists is because of the rich, comrade. in the hopes you one day realise this, we can be coalition friends for the meantime. but sort out that colourblind vibe you got going on, man.

*[[File:LordCompU.png]] [[Ultroneism]] - I must admit to the heinous sin of skimming over your works. But i must say, from the perspective of someone who sees themselves as not very philosophically involved, you have given me a new perspective on anarchism with your writings differentiating philosophical anarchism. I must say, i am impressed. Additionally, any friend of the writings of Žižek and sorel, and of the music of Bob Dylan, is someone whom i can appreciate.
 
*[[File:CalafaxBall.png]] [[Geoliberal Social Democracy]] - On one hand, you do seem to have a few capitalist tendencies, and i am never a fan of using the term liberal to describe policy, but you did appeal to my collaborative nature by saying you would be willing to work with you, which, conveniently enough, is my whole ideological schtick.
*[[File:NeoGlencoe.png]] [[Neo-Glencoeism]] - I had already held you to your former insert's standards last time i wrote this, so i will not inhibit my criticisms once again with that little disagreement. Outside of what i did used to agree with, you have maintained the culturally progressive politics that allow me to tolerate any right wing tendencies, and I respect that your current ideology is much more mature in it's belief than it's predecessor. However, you have become something idolized by the right as what 'a leftist should look like', which is a hilarious notion, i am sure you will admit.
*[[File:Neokira2.png]] [[Meowxism]] - Like I say, i am not inherently against Marxist-Leninists at all, I think many of them on this wiki are very good people. Likewise, you seem to be highly progressive, which immediately saves anyone who is against revisionism, but again, i must say that revision is the basis of science, and theory must be adapted to it's time.
*[[File:Shinto_Theocracy.png]] [https://polcompballanarchy.miraheze.org/wiki/Liberal_Feudalism Liberal Feudalism] - I have to say, in the state I see this page there isn't much to like. In terms of economics there's something of a lacklustre commitment to antiquated ideas of "distribution" and feudalism that I just simply don't see as viable in today's society. Civically, most of the fat of monarchy and confederation can be trimmed to make way for something more ergatocratic, but I suppose I take what I can get. As I've discussed with you, you're really, in this state something of a cultural nostalgic without any of the analysis. However, having said that, I feel that your next ideological endeavor will be much more... {{Color|#CC0000|interesting.}}
*[[File:Neohumicon.png]] [[Neo-humanism]] - Honestly, looking past the obvious economic differences, which automatically puts you in the scepticism category, you hold decent social values, and although i consider myself humanistically centrist, because i believe there is also a good case for anti-humanism, i can fully respect anyone acting for the common man, even if their definition of common man is misguided.
*[[File:Hered.png]] [[Heredism]] - All in all, while social liberalism is much too overton window for my liking, populism is the best way to give control back to the masses, so i think you might have made a recovery there. agree with your LGBT stances, your stances on drug use, although we could probably safely legalise a bit stronger stuff, since the regulation argument applies further down you go, and it worked out for portugal. as for gun usage, in britain, only specialist cops have access to guns, and even then they need to have a license. restricting it to the cops is giving the cops an inch, and as time has shown, giving them an inch leads to them taking [[File:Blm.png]] A mile. From there, it is all pretty default social democratic stuff, stuff i mostly agree with. so good job overall.

Self Insert
"People can really believe anything these days!" - Ismism

This page is meant to represent MrNoNonsense's political views. Please do not make any major edits without their permission.


"emancipatory politics must always destroy the appearance of a ‘natural order’, must reveal what is presented as necessary and inevitable to be a mere contingency, just as it must make what was previously deemed to be impossible seem attainable."

Mark Fisher


The Great British New Left is a theoretical Marxist and Fisherite Movement advocated by MrNoNonsense involving the Technological overthrow of the British Government by Any and all means. These beliefs are largely centred around the British Labour Party, which it sees as a sufficient host to supply the movement. Culturally, the movement advocates for a complete Separation of the Church of England from the state, the Advancement of worker's condition through body augmentation , and the reform of sensationalized media. Socially, the movement advocates for a new social path, reconciling the Cultural left movement of the day to form a new, technologically oriented counter-culture movement, and economically, it takes a Planned Market approach to socialism, seeing the market not as a way to make capitalism 'friendlier', but as a way to enhance the condition of the working class in the new society until markets can be done away with.

The little ideology sprite things: (/////)

I'll write about my influences from Fisher, Gramsci and Debord at a later date.

Beliefs

Economic Policy

Taxation

Taxation must be punitive on the upper class in society. Taxes will be separated by goal; some taxes will exist for the purpose of revenue, and other taxes will exist for the purpose of restricting usage (I.e carbon taxes, taxes on dangerous narcotics and other drugs). Both taxes will be utilised to stagnate the growth of private industry in to fit rigidly in line with the New Economic Policy, which will see limited private industry flourish within state bounds for the purpose of developing the industrial conditions needed for a proper socialistic revolution.

Government Spending

Most Social Care and welfare institutions would be brought under state control- in the early days, private healthcare and private education will exist and flourish for the purpose of temporarily creating a gap in quality of care between the two (the government will pay for attendance of these institutions if it is ruled this level of care is required), but eventually the National Healthcare Service will be expanded and it's private shares will be bought off.

Case Study: Alleviating The Cost Of Living Crisis

Starting hypothetically tomorrow, the movement would immediately remove the ban on onshore wind farms, institute a windfall tax to pay for new green energy infrastructure, and begin the nationalisation of the small gas companies that have been cooperating with Putin's russia. They would then start instituting further taxes on BP and Shell, and use the income generated from that to start a green new deal, providing a revitalisation of the energy industry, supported by the nationalisation of United Utilities, which should ease the burden on the people suffering the most from the crisis. [2]

Social Policy

The Rights of an Individual

The Equality acts protections do not go far enough in ensuring the safety of Transgender and Genderqueer individuals from discrimination. Womens-only training courses will be offered in the short-term to culturally move the myth that women are less skilled than men, and an enforced elimination of the gender pay gap in state institutions will be implemented. Reported cases of pay gaps will be taken seriously, and will be a topic that can be addressed with the relevant union (likely the TUC, which will become an empowered organisation.)

The Blue and The Black

Alternative Right and Alternative Lite discourse ignores basic biological factual information. It ignores the inherent fact that 'Nature', as it so seeks to appeal to, is a phenomenon. It is not fact. What is natural is simply what has changed, and what will likely change again. This 'State Of Nature' they pray to like a false deity is as nonexistent as their perceived supremacy. As File:ContraPointsism.png Someone else wisely put, 'When someone attacks someone specifically, they are not to be persuaded, they are to be defeated'. [3]

The Pink, and it's relation to the Yellow

'Social Justice Warriorism' is a uniquely false notion. Truly, there is no unified movement that makes these people one group, merely innocent people who have been misled and polarised by an aggressive capitalistic media state. Capitalism created this movement to counter it's own creation, the aforementioned alternative lite. The fight between the two was created to serve capitalism, to sell a t-shirt, a bumper sticker, or a subscription service. Put simply, it "is not a collection of images, but a social relation among people, mediated by images.”

The Church

I am no longer a Catholic. The Church as an institution, and all churches as institutions exist to prolong their own stays, and create fanatics complicit in their own subjugation. Morality is a myth propagated by church institutions on the simple basis of "they have always been propagated". While morality can serve the state in some instances, in most circumstances all it does is highlight the hypocrisy in the oppression of the ruling class that demonised the labour movements of the day as "immoral" and "godless". Short-term the state shall be secular, long term atheist, and end term godless entirely.

Case Study: The Culture War

The Culture War is produced as a byproduct of Capitals insistence on this fight between two sides, both blinded to the truth of the matter. They are being puppeteered, funded by each other, by corporate opposition, with the unified goal of marketeering around the conflict. Capital doesn't get involved in this dispute, after all, "The role of capitalist ideology is not to make an explicit case for something in the way that propaganda does, but to conceal the fact that the operations of capital do not depend on any sort of subjectively assumed belief." Capital does not need to partake directly, but merely hint that they have taken a side to appeal to a certain audience, and profit massively. Truly, the brunt of the issue is, WE have been fooled by this narrative. It is US who are taking the blame for their misdeeds. Because a nation divided over whether or not a drag queen should be reading to children (Which by the way, who the fuck cares), is NOT divided over whether or not Capitalism has a right to exist at all.

Foreign Policy

Preface: The Nation

I would like to start this by stating what i believe to be a non-contradiction. I detest the nation. I detest the nation-state. In spite of this, i am a nationalist, and i actively support nationalists and nationalism. How, you may ask? Simple. The way the world has evolved, the way the situation in which we live has developed, the nation is nothing short of a complete and utter requirement. Otherwise would be, i believe, as far as the current system dictates, Currently impossible. Thoroughly. In fact, I believe the nation is such a requirement that I believe that to be a nationalist is the only viable option as of here and now. Ideally, a nation would not exist, but ideals are idealised, and the cold, bitter reality is that to survive in a world of wolves feasting on weak carcasses, to be proud of yourself is an option to which no alternative exists. The nation, despite it's socially constructed nature, is needed. In essence, to this part, I am simultaneously an Alternate Globalist and a Universal Nationalist. Make of this what you will, Being either puts you in my favour.

The People

Ethnicity, however, is not. What truly separates man from itself? It's shared culture and experiences? Or do you believe that the root cause of separation runs skin deep, that one pigment is 'better off' than another. Truly, the only thing that seperates man in observable science, is the labels we have attached to ourselves, to describe certain behavioural similarities in groups. Harmless, of course. But it has the potential to cause unspeakable harm, segregation, enslavement, inferiority in numbers, terrorism, genocide, and mass death in the name of one group over all the others. But for now, all this potential for misery remains locked away behind one powerful single word. 'British'. 'Frisian'. 'French'. Let us keep these words the same for now, and pray to above that they will never again activate to violent effect.

The Great Political Binary

West, East. Rich, Poor. First, Second and Third. Both corrupted by the very nature of the ideals that their ancestors tried to instill onto them. The Americans have taken the role of the British Empire, flipping places to their side on the very whim, revelling in pure unadulterated capitalism leaving nothing but waste and despair in their path. The Russians, the Chinese, have inherited the legacy of their founding autocracy, truly, the spirit of tsar and emperor never left the two countries. With such a large number of people and land respectively, Autocracy comes geographically natural to the two powers, leaving the world in a standoff between worse and worse yet, mediocre and deathly. What is right is sacrificed in the name of who is on our side, and who isn't. I want britain to play no further part in this charade.

Case Study: Ukraine

Imagine yourself being a Ukrainian refugee. Starving, Hopeless, alone. Forced to leave your home because of circumstances out of your control. Now imagine yourself being a citizen of Donetsk or Donbas. Similarly, you are in destitution by an incompetent puppet government paraded by Putin's autocratic regime. But you are not ukrainian, no. You speak russian, and you live a russian life. To you, to be Russian is not a question of being allied to Putin's regime, but simply being who you are. I refuse to support Putin's illegal invasion into Ukraine, but similarly, I refuse to allow for the oppression of the russian minority within Ukraine. Universal Nationalism is universal. If a group wants freedom, and can prove so, it must be granted. Of course, i wish for this to be under a different russian government, but Ukraine's hand in this issue has gone far enough. Ukraine has tried and failed multiculturalism. Should ukraine be punished for any action? No, they are being invaded. In conclusion, Russia's war in ukraine comes first, Russian people's right to whatever sovereignty they want will, and I mean will, come afterwards.

Civic Policy

The Government

The primary goal of a governmental system should be to serve the people. This remains true even after my rereading of Lenin's State And Revolution; the state exists to serve the working class. Society will be governed largely by workers councils (likely organised under the TUC or a similar more state run institution) that will make local decisions for business and local areas, essentially embodying Lenin's original idea for democratic centralism, while also emphasising the importance of workers co-operatives in the new society. Long term, unions will be phased out as the state itself will be representative of it's people, but this will be done peacefully. Every arm of government will be subject to critique by any citizen, and this will be co-ordinated via these worker's councils.

The People

The idea of the people controlling the country in bourgeois democracy is a laughable notion- the bourgeois know what they did when they created representative democracy- they created a system in which people would be discouraged from seeking other options, and no change would be possible because no major party wanted change. They created the ultimate parasite- a system where nothing could fundamentally change. This is not democracy, this is a dictatorship. This is a rule of the Neoliberal Capitalist Realism for the benefit of the front bench, who line their pockets with gold. No more! The only way the people can be truly represented is with a system governed by them on the local level, but representing them on the executive level- a proletariat democracy, if you will. [4]

Case Study: The Houses Of Parliament

Parliament, immediately, would be digitalised. In-person meetings would be restricted to times of emergency, and PMQs, voting on bills, and parliamentary discussion will all be conducted online. Then, the house of lords would be abolished completely, replaced by a house of workers, the individual councils that governs Britain, their numbers as large or as small as is liked- these councils will not be ruled by individual representatives, but would rather submit their opinions on votes digitally in council meetings that can be attended by anyone online or in person. The institution of "parliamentary members" would be completely reworked- these individuals would now serve in a house of representatives by the edge of a knife, at the whim of the people who voted for them. the decision to vote them out would be as simple as an electronic vote. using electronic voting, safeguarded by harsh penalties for electronic electoral interference, all votes would be conducted in much quicker fashion. as a result, representatives would not be expected to serve full terms, creating a dynamic in which the people hold at their disposal the complete control over who represents them in government. All of this would be overseen by a vanguard party which would be neatly divided into factions- whichever of these factions leads at any given time would be irrelevant as all conditions presented by the factions will have been overseen and voted on by all other members.

Cultural Policy

Preface: On Culture

Culture does not exist. As a concept, a culture is completely made up. Yet a culture is not something that can be done away with as it's development is simply how human beings function, and it is expressed differently in every single individual. As a result of this, culture will be defined by the state and used to it's maximum potential- the most creative, the most exciting, and importantly, the most new, a culture can possibly be.

Neo-Proletkulk

Proletkult was an interesting channel for analysing culture and art and how the two interacted, and it's ideas were worth investigating, but it did not go far enough. The Proletkult should use it's research into art and culture to encourage the rewriting of cultural norms and art boundaries; it should have become a new expression for culture instead of being satisfied with making culture 'flashier'. Proletkult as a concept should embrace an ever changing new, and use it to engage in exciting developments with art, history, culture and the way we see these things develop. moreover, proletkult should have had more power in deciding how these things looked- this should never come to the point where proletkult dictates how culture should look, like with all arms of government Proletkult would govern at the whim of it's members, who could be completely anyone in a profession it covers. Through a state-run avenue for cultural expression and innovation, development of these ideas will undeniably thrive as they did in Soviet Russia's early years. [5]

Reading List

I've Read more than this, this is a WIP. This is written in the order I read them.

Manifesto Of The Communist Party

Best described nowadays as a communism primer, nothing more. I didn't understand it the first time I read it, so I re-read it two years ago. 8/10.

Homage to Catalonia

While Orwell accurately describes his experiences, he does so in a pompous and arrogant way- as though he is above the syndicalists for having retrospective on revolutions. Doesn't bode well for his later work. 5/10.

History of the Russian Revolution

For an active participant Trotsky is very good at making an objective statement of the facts of the revolution. I received this book as a loan from a friends mother, who was a huge Russophile. 9/10 for history, 7/10 for ideological connotations.

Capitalist Realism: is there no alternative?

The first book that actually made me take a step back and think about politics. Reading this, I questioned almost everything I had been taught. Further readings of Fisher only made it more apparent that I had gone too far down the rabbit hole to return to Democratic Socialism. 10/10.

The State and Revolution

Lenin articulates his frustrations with contemporary socialism very well here. Furthermore I believe his solutions are pragmatic, workers soviets before october were effective, and his other proposals (The Vanguard, namely) are still relevant today. 8/10.

Relations

I've gutted this so i can begin to add people onsite.

100% Invited to the coalition

  • Rocksism - There is a unique history to anarchism on the wiki, I'm sure you would agree; of course, I've never found myself particularly partial to the ideas of anarchism, but as far as the wiki is concerned, there is a legacy to it. Airisu left, O'Lang retired and Ashley is gone. You are the lost generation of PCB leftwing anarchists. And the massive amount of influence that I have taken from your page? I feel comfortable saying that you are the best anarchist on PCB currently, hands down. Economically, you can just take all I said about Yoda and just magnify it. I just might read synthesis anarchism.
  • Sundog - The Bolshevik movement must accept both the writings of Bogdanov and Lenin to even hope of surviving. We both use Proletkult, and although my use of it is driven by my desire to create an ever-progressive march forward using state run culture and arts facilities to do it, we both use it in the same way and both see it as the driving force behind our beliefs. The man i recommend to you is one Mark Fisher. In any event, you are overwhelmingly correct. I prefer my post-postmodernism to metamodernism though since Postmodernism is the vehicle through with capital today acts and defends itself.
  • Bernheism - Ah, you. Onlookers viewing in may wonder why I'd even bother placing someone who seems so contrary to my beliefs so close to the top, but that is a surface level analysis. The truth is, Henderson is a man who understands the system in all it's diversities. Henderson understands how capital uses culture to manipulate society, yet he wants to utilise it instead of break it. He knows how the media creates spectacles to breed conformity and hysteria with the end goal of profit, but he seeks to enhance this function instead of eradicate it. He knows capital reinforces its own critique, Henderson would be the first one out at a leftist protest selling Guevara T-shirts. It was when you had put as a title "Realism forevermore" that I properly understood exactly why I like your ideology so much- we share the same analysis to the letter. You and I are playing the same game, except one of us wants to destroy it, and one of us wants to own it. Let's play together. You'll be spared when it all comes crashing down around you. Let's have some fun.
  • Psychocommunism - The apprentice. I don't disagree with you on anything, whatsoever. Our one disagreement is on the labour party, so instead of showering you with the praise I shower you with every day, I'll address that. Labour was born from a cultural movement. It was born from the disgruntled working people, and if manoeuvred right, we very much could purge the factions and return it to it's days of glory. My reason for doing so is that the revitalisation of the Labour Movement would be a great place to then implement cultural reform, as PART of labour reform. Moreso, that party's ghosts have been expunged, Hardie's influence over labour has been exorcised. Cut out of our own party. Through Hardie, this party is the birthright of the working people. We can take it back. We must take it back.We will take it back.
  • Post-Camelism - Ah, camel. You lovable scamp. You bastard you. I have attempted to justify my entryism before in ways that have proven so futile that I myself have found myself starting to reject the practice, as you know of course. But I will attempt to explain my entryism here. The proletariat as it currently exists in Britain believes, falsely, that the party that economically represents them is the Labour party. For the people of Britain, it is easier to imagine the conservatives becoming a socialist party than for another socialist party to exist. Does it not logically follow, then, that if the Labour and Co-Operative party led a vanguard for the British people, at least for those people, it would be less of a stretch than the rise of a new party? One of the biggest problems that Galloway's workers party faces is that the left in britain often disagree with his conservatism, which means the only votes he can really get are muslims upset about Palestine. Britain's material conditions forbid any party from claiming the mantle of the working class because of the usurpation of Labour, what I propose is fuelled by democratic nostalgia for certain, but is also, at least partially, a pragmatic decision. Although, as I say, I'm beginning to have my doubts. Camel, you're fantastic. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I'd even believe in. Our debates have been some of my personal favourites. Keep being that strange Ohioan androgynous queen that all of those girls at the mental hospital think you are.

Invited to the coalition

  • Venatrixism - Such a shame that Mr Boleque turned you into a liberal, get well soon lucy <3
  • Dankeism - Utopians, utopians everywhere! Accept that you won't be able to achieve anything by using their apparatus! I might be aligned towards being anti-praxis these days, but I can't stand here and watch you stumble through social democracy! You can aspire to more, you just need to have faith in our ability to do so! The working class doesn't have to beg when it can bargain. Think on it.
  • Nuriskianism - I'm more left-quarkist than you, smh 🚬
  • HelloThere314ism - I feel as though there isn't much I can really say, I'm on a time constraint here so I'm going off of part one of "Stirner's new critics" and the info off of your page. As per usual, I love your anti-essentialism. Anti-Essentialism should be the basis of most ideological thought, and escape from the comforts of the "Spiritual" are priority. Of course, there is no point in me restating that I don't understand enough about Stirner, but from what i've read of SNC, he does seem to make a degree of sense. Also, although it's not to my preferences, communism of the abolition of social mediation is very, very commendable. While I still lean on the establishment of a new system, I agree with your stance on it being a societal issue worth devoting that much time to. All in all, you are very knowledgeable, you inspired me to read more theory, and you're still just a very chill guy. With most people, I have times where I doubt their knowledge on a topic, I don't really think I've ever had that with you.
  • Meowxism - The degenerate aspects of your personality (a strong opener, I know, but I mean what I say here as a compliment) indicate a step in the right direction, yet I sometimes feel as though the root of your progressivism stems from a more liberal progressive past point as opposed to some revolutionary queer liberation. The outcome, of course is the same so this is a bit of a nitpick. I feel as though your analysis is undercut by a dislike of vague "revisionism", which I commented on when I was a democratic socialist. My statement then, that revision is the basis of science, still remains relatively true to my current opinion of your ideology. Marxism-Leninism is a dated interpretation of how the material conditions of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat should look, and for alternatives, perhaps it would be worth reading some early Lenin. Marx, again, is outdated in his hegelian dialectics, and to "revise" so to speak, this, would allow for a much more nuanced analysis. Material conditions, and the general idea of Oppressor and Oppressed, of course, remain true, but I know you can broaden your horizons beyond that. In summary, you're better than this, but this in of itself isn't the worst.

Invited to the coalition with skepticism

  • Neo-Glencoeism - I had already held you to your former insert's standards last time i wrote this, so i will not inhibit my criticisms once again with that little disagreement. Outside of what i did used to agree with, you have maintained the culturally progressive politics that allow me to tolerate any right wing tendencies, and I respect that your current ideology is much more mature in it's belief than it's predecessor. However, you have become something idolized by the right as what 'a leftist should look like', which is a hilarious notion, i am sure you will admit.
  • Liberal Feudalism - I have to say, in the state I see this page there isn't much to like. In terms of economics there's something of a lacklustre commitment to antiquated ideas of "distribution" and feudalism that I just simply don't see as viable in today's society. Civically, most of the fat of monarchy and confederation can be trimmed to make way for something more ergatocratic, but I suppose I take what I can get. As I've discussed with you, you're really, in this state something of a cultural nostalgic without any of the analysis. However, having said that, I feel that your next ideological endeavor will be much more... interesting.

Would have better luck joining the BNP

  • Ziółkowskiizm - 'Irredentism for me, but not for thee.'
  • Charming Romanticism - Sorry dawg I'm afraid the nazi race and ethnicity classification is rooted in false sciences based on coincidences, and I'm afraid that there is no (hau)(o)ntological basis for the belief in hyperborea or any of the other esoteric nazi ideology. I can respect esoteric thought due to it's efficiency as a method of control, but that's like, basically it in terms of props I can give you. Any philosophical figures we may share are probably just because we interpret them differently. I'm sorry, messard, but fuck your beliefs dawg.

Comments

HelloThere314 - Add me?

Venatrixism - add me

  • You're quick man

Neo-Glencoeism - add me please

  1. Not so much in theory, but in rhetoric and approach to learning political theory
  2. Post-Rewrite notice: this has remained mostly true, that this would happen, but this is still early days, and I'm no economist.
  3. Post-Note: this remains completely true, but it accepts the logic of the Alt-Right a bit too much.
  4. wink wink nudge nudge I might be a Leninist now
  5. this is perhaps the last time I agree with early Soviet Russia, almost all of my Leninist inspirations come solely from state and revolution and not from his wartime actions
