Longism is an economically left-wing, culturally center, statist AuthLeft ideology. Longism name, ideology, and personality are based on Huey Long, governor and senator from Louisiana in the 1930s. While believing in Capitalism, Longism wants to heavily regulate the markets, fund social programs, and introduce a universal basic income called "Share Our Wealth". What sets him apart from Social Democracy and other moderate AuthLeft ideologies is that he believes using corruption and intimidation to undermine opponents are valid ways to achieve reform.

Paternalistic Conservatism, Distributism, and Longism are currently the three authleft ideologies that do not identify as socialist of any kind and should be portrayed being irritated when they are called that, their beliefs meant to provide an alternative to socialism with populist economics. Paternalistic Conservatism and Longism favor heavily regulated and populist state capitalism while Distributism favors guilds and family-owned enterprises. Longism is culturally moderate and while secular in its institutions, is influenced by the Bible. Patcon favors working with religious institutions when possible and Distributism is based on Catholic social teaching.

Stylistic Notes

Despite the crown, Longism is not a monarchist. He wears the crown due to his belief that every man should be a king through social programs.
Frequently denies being socialist, but admits to voting for leftist economic policies all the time as per the real Huey Long.
Hates LibRight ideologies with a burning passion, usually tolerates others if they aren't getting in his way.
Will often make speeches about his childhood or early career and how they relate to current politics and his beliefs.
Loves football
Best friends and often seen with Distributism

Relationships

Friends

Distributism Probably my best friend, we're united in the cause of Sharing the Wealth!
Social Democracy A great guy and a great friend with great ideas, too bad he insists on "democracy" even when it doesn't always get the job done. Runner up for my best friend.
Paternalistic Conservatism A bit of patriotism and a bit of wealth sharing sounds amazing.

Frenemies

Socialism Has more good ideas than bad but insists on dressing up in a un-American red
Social Libertarianism Wants to share the wealth, but when it comes to busting those trusts he tends to falter.

Enemies

Anarcho-Syndicalism GODDAMN UNAMERICAN SYNDIES! Also, keeps thinking of a timeline where he fought them in a Second American Civil War.
Marxism-Leninism GODDAMN SOVIET AGENTS! Using authority to fight capitalism and loving charismatic strong men is kinda cool though.
Anarcho-Capitalism GODDAMN EXPLOITIVE CAPITALISTS!
Fascism: I SAID EVERY MAN A KING, NOT JUST ONE ETHNIC GROUP'S. Nationalism is based though.
Radical Feminism and Libertarian Feminism and Anarcha-Feminism: I TOLD YOU I DON'T LITERALLY WANT ALL MEN TO BE KINGS. Also by men can be gender-neutral for human you dorks.

How to Draw

Draw a circle
Draw a simplified version of the Coat of Arms of Huey Long[1], starting with the diagonal red lines, then the fish, then the fish's crown. (The latter two don't need to be complicated/have details, using a solid color is fine.)
Add a crown to Longism
Add eyes
Done!
