Due to lack of reading so far, my entire and total political view is 
Kropotkin, however when I get round to reading more political theory, I will make a new page. If I get around to doing that.
This page still isn't great but it is good enough so I am finished.
I believe in a form of mutual-aid anarchism, and wish to establish a society based on cooperation, decentralization and the rejection of authority.
BELIEFS
MUTUAL AID AND COOPERATION
PRINCIPLE OF MUTUAL AID
I believe that cooperation and mutual aid are inherent in human nature, and disagree with 
Darwinism, which believes in a competitive "survival of the fittest". Because of Kropotkin's book Mutual Aid, where he outlines a number of observations from nature and history in favour of this claim, I argue that species (including humans) thrive through collaboration rather than ruthless competition.
SOCIAL EVOLUTION
I value the positive evolution of societies through mutual aid. I believe that cooperative communities are better equipped for survival and progress, and disagree with the notion that competition is the primary driver of societal development. The idea is foundational to my beliefs, and my ideal social order based on solidarity.
ANARCHO-COMMUNISM
STATELESS SOCIETY
My ideal society is one without government, where individuals collectively manage affairs. I reject centralized authority, and argue for local self-governance and decentralized decision-making.
COMMON OWNERSHIP
At the core of Anarcho-Communism is the concept of common ownership. I believe (as Kropotkin outlined in his book Conquest for Bread) that resources and means of production should be communally owned, eradicating class distinctions and fostering equality among individuals.
COMMON GOOD
Anarcho-Communism seeks the organization of production for the benefit of all. My ideal system is a system where wealth and resources are distributed according to needs, promoting the common welfare.
DECENTRALIZATION AND LOCAL AUTONOMY
SELF-GOVERNANCE
I believe in the autonomy of local communities, where individuals actively participate in decision-making processes. I believe that smaller, self-sufficient communities could better address the diverse needs of their members.
VOLUNTARY COOPERATION
Within a decentralized structure, I believe (as Kropotkin outlined in his book Fields, Factories and Workshops) in voluntary cooperation among communities. This approach, I believe, would encourage a diversity of social arrangements based on the unique preferences and values of different groups.
REJECTION OF COERCIVE AUTHORITY
VOLUNTARY ASSOCIATIONS
I argue for the organization of society through voluntary associations rather than coercive hierarchies. I believe that individuals should freely choose their associations, promoting cooperation based on shared goals.
FREEDOM AND OPPRESSION
Central to my philosophy is the idea that individuals should be free from oppressive structures. I dislike institutions that enforced authority through coercion and hope to replace them with voluntary and liberating alternatives.
DISLIKE OF 
CAPITALISM
INEQUALITY AND EXPLOITATION
I dislike 
Capitalism for perpetuating social inequality and the exploitation of labor. I believe that the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few leads to social unrest and hinders collective progress.
COMMUNAL OWNERSHIP
Due to the problems of Capitalism, I believe (as Kropotkin argued in his book The Conquest for Bread) in the communal ownership of resources. My ideal system is a system where wealth is shared, eliminating the disparities created by private ownership.
EVOLUTIONARY ETHICS
ETHICS FROM EVOLUTION
My ethical principles are just the evolutionary benefits of cooperation applied. I believe that ethical behaviors are deeply rooted in the survival advantages gained through mutual aid, aligning morality with biology and social evolution.
CONNECTION TO BIOLOGY
I hope to connect ethical principles to biological and social evolution, and therefore aim to ground morality in observable patterns of behavior that contribute to the well-being and survival of communities.
ANTI-MILITARISM AND ANTI-IMPERIALISM
PEACEFUL CONFLICT RESOLUTION
I am vocal about peaceful conflict resolution. I oppose the use of force and 
Militarism, and argue for diplomatic solutions to conflicts to prevent violence and bloodshed.
DISMANTLING MILITARISTIC STRUCTURES
As a part of my anti-militaristic view, I want the dismantling of military structures used for imperialistic purposes. I believe that such institutions perpetuated inequality and served the interests of ruling elites.
ENVIRONMENTALISM
SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES
I am concerned about the environmental impact of 
Industrial Capitalism. I argue for sustainable practices that would preserve ecosystems and minimize the exploitation of natural resources.
HARMONY WITH NATURE
In line with my mutual aid principle, I believe that a society based on cooperation would harmonize better with nature. I dislike Industrial Capitalism for its adverse effects on the environment and like ecological balance through alternative social structures.
PCB STUFF
Mutualist or not?
Despite the name of my ideology, I have not read 
Proudhon, nor been influenced by 
mutualist philosophy. So, to look at the name, we must look at where the term 'mutualism' comes from: and it finds it's origins from mutual aid, a topic I find very important thanks to Kropotkin's work, and fundimental to an anarchist society to run: without the we, we would starve individually while the powerful (those who gained a great harvest) would sit upon a pile of wealth: an 
anarcho-capitalist system, where everybody suffers except from the rich.
Being that an emphasis on mutual aid is an essential and large component of my philosophy, it makes sense to include it in the name. You could also argue I share a number of traits with Mutualists, although nothing that isn't also shared by a number of 
Anarchists: decentralization, voluntary cooperation and opposition to hierarchical structures.
Relations
Hoodism 90% - Actually me if I read more books.
BASED

Positive

Positive-Leaning
Proletariat Builderism 60% - Me if reactionary. Unfortunately, I am culturally left.
Negative-Leaning
Baxism 40% - A fellow far-leftie! Unfortunately, too authoritarian and nationalist for me.
Negative

CRINGE
Hysteria Thought 20% - I sincerely fear you. You have read far, far more than me and because of that I sincerely respect you. I disagree on a number of issues, especially on economics. Love the aesthetics, though.
Romantic Egoism 
20% - Rather than a kropotkin-based economic system, you believe in an alternative economic system. Also, while I focus on collectivist anarchism, you focus on post-left individualist socialism, which I disagree with.
Rigby Thought 18% - Centralized vs Chaotic (not actually chaotic, but stick around for the pun), Corporatist / Capitalist vs Communist (specifically anarcho-), Conservative vs Culturally Left; Conflict of the Cs!
Brazilian Liberalism 15% - Your acceptence of authority and nationalism is cringe and I can't really think of many areas where we agree.
N.Brioism 15% - At least you are far-left (economically) and not white supremacist, although you are certainly not culturally left. You are also too authoritarian and anti-democratic ( literally ) 
Pol Pot
MEGACRINGE
Neocarlism 10% - Actually evil. I can't think of a single area where we agree. The closest we get is Free Market Guild Socialism, however on every other issue (on markets, on moderation, on the restriction of immigration, focus on race, etc.) we are opposites.
Anarcho-Communism - I am an AnCom, how could I place my ideology anywhere else? 
Kropotkinism - You are the only person to influence me as of the current moment, although that will change: it is only due to you being the only person I have read.
Environmentalism - Industrial Capitalism's impact on the environment is catastrophic.
Neutral
Nothing Thus Far
Negative
Darwinism - I do not care that you technically influenced me, your idea of "survival of the fittest" is beyond evil. (Yes, I know you did not personally believe in sotf, but your supporters did.)
Capitalism - An incredibly unfair system that has unfortunately become the status quo, directly leading to a lack of progress and the death of many.
Industrial Capitalism - Not only starving humans but killing entire ecosystems.
Militarism - Bloodshed and death. How can that be fair?~
