Revision as of 16:13, 16 October 2020

Technocracy is an economically and culturally variable anti-democratic ideology who supports a system of governance in which decision-makers within the area are selected on the basis of their expertise in a given area of responsibility, particularly with regard to scientific or technical knowledge, and supports the formation of a government of scientists, engineers, urban planners etc. The term can also sometimes be used to describe the idea of approaching social and economical problems through the lens of sustainability and the scientific method as opposed to the pursuit of monetary profit. Sometimes, Technocracy can advocate for economic planning, although this is not always the case.

How to Draw

Techball is extremely easy to draw:

  1. Draw a ball
  2. Draw in a yin-yang style symbol, with the left part in light grey (#d3d3d3) and the right part in red (#b22222)
  3. Add the eyes and done!

Stylistic notes

  • Usually depicted as more intelligent than other ideologies and with deep knowledge of various scientific fields.
  • While not explicitly technologically progressive, he often associates with pro-technology ideologies and enjoys sharing his scientific knowledge with them.
  • While not particularly anti-capitalist, can be critical of capitalism for giving the wealthy power as opposed to the most skilled.

Relationships

Friends

  • Syndicalism/ Anarcho-Syndicalism - Profession-run industry gang!
  • Combatocracy - You also support leadership based on skill, even if our perspectives are a little different.
  • Transhumanism - My more technologically advanced friend and lab-mate. I built his first augments, by the way!
  • Cyberocracy - My dearest son, goes a bit extreme but still a genius.
  • Noocracy - My father, who taught me from a young age, We disagree when it comes to who exactly is the wisest, though.
  • Meritocracy - He has talent, but he has many achievements and have similar views.

Frenemies

  • Capitalism - You're not the worst ideology, but you put much more importance on wealth and materialism as opposed to promoting a true meritocracy.
  • Monarchism - You do agree with me that the dumb public shouldn't have power, but really! Me and you! Together!
  • Futurism - I appreciate the sentiment, but you're too crazy to be running a country.
  • Aristocracy - Grandfather, who first started the path that led to my ideas, but is definitely not qualified to rule.
  • Technoliberalism - One of my children, but do I have a reason to have a child with a failure?

Enemies

  • Liberalism - Democracy is a flawed system! Your average citizen has no consensus on the political world.
  • Kakistocracy - Are you insane? Why on Earth would you want a society ruled by idiots?!
  •  Neoluddism - He said WHAT about the industrial revolution?
  • Democracy - Why is Kakistocracy here twice?
