Primalism, A.K.A. Primal Primitivism, Feralism or Animalism, is an Off-Compass Libertarian Unity ideology that believes in the devolution of Humanity into a more animalistic state. Primalism is so against the human experiment that any sign of evolutionary development past base survive-or-die animal instinct is considered evil and must be punished. This is naturally opposed the the idea of society, so Primalism is anarchist as well.
Primalism could be considered the off-compass extreme form of Anarcho-Primitivism, except taken even further to disassemble society down to primal instincts. Primalism is the ancestor of all ideologies, through his son Tribalism.
Features
Because of its backwards evolutionary development, Primalism cannot speak and can only make vague snuffling sounds that might be translated into readable words. Because of this, Primalism is often used to represent the idea of non-human animals in Polcompball, as it is the ideology most animals follow. A lot of animals will have different versions of Primalism depending on their behaviors, such as a cat being Ego-Primalism.
Primalism's eyes are green as they possess reptilian night vision, and because they are generally feral.
