Bloodhandism is a fictional ideology created by Dr. Occo for his Radinia Project.

It is essentially a mix of the "Might makes Right" Philosophy with the structure of an Anarchist commune, where every member has the same rights and most farmsteads and workshops are communally owned.

Components

A Union of the Mighty

The founder and tenous leader of the Bloodhand Band, Rufus Strell, believes in the Right of "Strong and Capable" people to take everything they want to own using their strength and capability. However, he rejects the idea of a natural hierarchy of strenght, instead believing that society can be broadly divided into a big group of weak and incapable people and a smaller group of strong and capable people. If someone can prove himself to be part of the group of capables, he thinks, they should be as free to exercise their strenght on the weaker group as possible. This results in the band itself welcoming new members only after they have "proven their worth" in cage fights and have managed to appear reasonably intelligent in a personal conversation with one of the older gang members. After that, though, the members are generally being treated as equals, with no hierarchy emerging in the gang, due to Strell's "two groups" belief.

Collective Ownership

Now, you would think that an ideology that is focused on giving the mighty a right to exercise their own will, without consideration of the consequences of ones actions for others, would not lend itself well to an Anarcho-Communist structure, but this specific kind of ideology does. As society is divided into a strong ingroup and a weak outgroup, the "consequences for others" mentioned before are understood as "consequences for the weak". As long as someone is understood by the strong ingroup to be part of said ingroup, they are being shielded from the consequences of the actions that other members take.
Strell believed that the small ingroup has to be internally stable, as to not be overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of the weak outgroup[1]. So, he argued that the Union of the Mighty needs a strong internal support network to give every
