What is your political orientation/ideology and what are the reasons for you choosing it, Veeky Forums?

Are you pro or anti trade union?

Fiscal conservative - Ideally
In reality, I am just a blunt conservative who aims for a reduction on government intervention in the private sector.

anarkist

I'm not against the existence of trade unions, but nobody should be forced to join a union because they do not always help workers.

And obviously public teacher's unions here in the US are absolute cancer, but that would become a non-issue if we were to have a voucher system instead of government schooling.

Social democracy

It's boring, but it works.

I work to extend freedom in the truest sense (in all forms without interference) so I suppose it's my ideology. I am also collecting every scrap of good knowledge I can find to put in an Archive, to act as a stop gap when our civilization inevitably declines. It's called "That Knowledge which is Essential for Human Civilization without Electrical Power Generation"

>tfw liberals and alt-righters have taken tankie from us lefties and are using it to describe ALL socialists

I'm a Datassist, and my faith demands sauce, but, I am well capable of finding it on my own. In the name of my faith I thank thee, OP.

My own, because all the others were unsatisfying.

>free will doesn't exist
>not worth wasting time
IMPLYING YOU HAVE A CHOICE IN THE MATTER.

Enlightened dictatorship that makes no laws about the economy or the market except to enforce competition and reduce kickbacks

All education is state-sponsored and teaches children in a way that encourages independence and respect for tradition. Universities only select students that achieve the highest 10% of test scores and gives tax breaks to private companies who hire them.

Flat income tax rate of 10%

Almost all tax dollars go towards the military, law enforcement, and the administration of the small bureaucracy surrounding the dictator

The dictator is the person who achieved the highest score at the end of their university program and the administration is made up of the next 99 highest scores.

Mein neger.

>I love only my people
>these other guys are a threat to everyone though
Nigger you're the one who's a threat to everyone else.

>The dictator is the person who achieved the highest score at the end of their university program and the administration is made up of the next 99 highest scores.

Addendum: almost all tax dollars go towards the military, law enforcement, the schools and universities, and the administration of the small bureaucracy surrounding the dictator

Does the dictator also have to prove his skills with thy blade?

Libertarian Market Socialism(Or basically mutalism)

Because I believe in a more free world where society and the community decides what's right or wrong rather by the state. I believe that many or even all businesses should become workers cooperatives since it will be more beneficial for the working man and the workplace should be run with democratically by the workers........ and I believe in markets too I guess.

Man, even North Korea works. Living in a cave without knowing how to make fire worked. Dogs and caterpillars work. "X works" doesn't say shit other than that it's not dead and gone yet.

Social Democracy is what allowed Scandanavia to achieve an extremely high standard of living

inb4 immigrant rape memes.

Enjoy having some limp-wristed autist as your dictator

Anti-modern

A little bit of aristocracy
A little bit of timeocracy

Mass politics is a cancer on what is noble and strong.

The modern mass man is a whore who thinks that his image is all that matters and has no substance to anything he says.

He might be tall, good looking, have a deep voice, etc. but all of this doesn't really matter if he becomes a concubine towards the modern institution, who is the only alpha male entity allowed.

I am against the singular alpha who is not flesh and blood, god and the state represent abstractions of the alpha male who cannot be killed honestly in battle.

It's only those who are shallow in body and mind that embrace such abstractions in an attempt for survival through the r-type strategy, quantity over quality.

>Scandinavia
>not welfare capitalism

Conservative. I believe in the free market and limited government programs that would be unsuitable for the private market. But I also think that a nation should have a powerful military. I think that using laws to enforce morality, such as drug laws, are ineffective and cause social unrest. Laws should generally only protect private property.

Staying out of world wars and profiting off the rebuilding sure helped a lot, too.

That's what social democracy is. If you have a different conception of what social democracy is please explain.

WHOA

Standard of living doesn't mean much when the spirit of your people is dead.

Only a modern capitalistic mass man thinks only in terms of material well being, never spiritual.

A full belly means nothing with a an empty head.

Social Democracy from what I can tell generally only works when the nation is small, developed, and culturally homogeneous. Once you have nations like the US that are these large, eclectic entities, social democracy devolves into one culture group giving themselves an advantage over the others, causing a lot of social tension

Social democracy leads to decline, stop supporting such a shallow ideal.

Sadly didn't work for the Weimar Republic

When I hear social democracy I think socialism + democracy. Nowadays, I know it's de facto definition is basically what Bernie Sanders wants for the US. I'm not really sure why this is the case. Maybe it's the last attempt to save socialism from the dustbin of history by redefining it as interventionist/welfare capitalism. But of course the classical definition of socialism is totally incompatible with capitalism.

Not only Scandinavia. I can't think of a single country that adopted social democratic policies and failed. It's like the opposite of communism. Even in continents like South America and South Asia, the countries that adopt more social democratic policies, such as Uruguay and Sri Lanka, are more successful than the ones that do not.

>he relies on government to provide spiritual meaning

kek

>government isn't itself a manifestation of that spirit

Fuck off with the smug greentext, it only makes you look more like a modern moron.

Why do moderns have to be so fucking smug and cynical about every little fucking thing, as if anything with substance that contradicts their shallow ideals was so bad anyways.

Perhaps they know deep down that without the modern state they themselves would not exist or survive.

>literally feels>reals

Social Democracy started referring specifically to reformist socialists who felt a welfare state was the first step to building socialism. Then when the 70s rolled around it was used exclusively to refer to welfare capitalists.

Well it depends on the country. Venezuela's "Socialism of the 21st century" is really just social democracy dressed up with socialist populism and it's doing horribly thanks to incompetent leadership.

Can't just go around ascribing success to things based on their ideals when there're the matters of the hugely important economical and realpolitikal circumstances they exist alongside with. I mean look at the East India Trading Company, rampant nepotism, very little concern for competence, yet motherfuckers were making bank (for awhile, when they weren't dying from disease).

>he relies on the fucking government for moral values or spirituality

Why don't you go a slaughterhouse or a sewer or something while you're at it.

We need those too.

>spiritual meaning
>substance
What the fuck is this retarded "moderns" thing about anyway?

He thinks its the 1920s and he's Volkisch

He isn't.

Hey smug modern, has the thought ever occured to you that maybe it's not just a false ditchotomy between your "realism" and spirituality?

Pure realism makes life boring and leads to stagnation through the feminizing of males (which is why they probably act like such smug women).
Emotion is what allows men to express themselves through violence and keeps them strong and aware of what is important, balance.

Material well being might be the base of our existence but unless you are a female, a man would not be satisfied with just that, he needs meaning in his life which comes from the ground up (flesh and blood) not the top down (abtraction).

Another smug cynical reply from a woman.

...

Lol someone got triggered. Do you live off of a government paycheck or something?

A typical modern response, dismissal with no substance.

It's a spiritual dismissal.

>Lol I'm such a moder idiot, let me pwn you with my smug reply, umad bro?

>I really made a difference pwning this guy with my insults through the internet

*unsheathes katana* the FUCK did you just call me?!?!?!?!?!?!

>pwning
Hey he doesn't think he's from the 20's, he thinks he's from the 00's.

Such a smug reply, give me another one I haven't heard before.

The irony of this meme is that, you represent it more than I do, you are the one who wields the katana of words behind the anonymity of the internet, those words would have gotten you beaten half to death but today, you can teleport all around be slashing and declaring shallow victories.

Alright, now you're just trolling, you funny bastard.

Transhumanism. The time to become something more is almost upon us. The singularity is coming.

The truth has been reduced to being called "trolling", (((god))) forbid anyone stands for any kind of substance in the shallow world of modernity.

Cool.

Nihilism hurr durr

Literally a /pol/ tread, fuck off.

Fascism. But I also have read much of the original Fascist writings from the 20s and 30s. Right now I'm trying to find as many of their writings as possible and hope to eventually translate them into English.

anarcho-monarchism

Literally what

National Conservatism, a bit more economically to the left though,

This sounds like an anime plot rather than a coherent political system.

I liked to live in a world that embraced an autocratic meritocracy.

Probably a Tolkien fan.

Liberalism and nationalism.
I care about my nation and my people and I wish that freedom and equality be given to them

eh, classical liberal. i dont care about SJWism and alt right shit. i realize that sometimes economics and politics arent concrete sciences. free market with government regulation

libertarian socialist: the state should enforce a minimum standard of living subject to the constraint that individual liberty ought to be maximized. Corporations are not individuals, and should be strictly regulated.

Thats not libertarian socialism. But you should look into the Bleeding Heart Libertarians blog. They seem right up your alley.

D'Annunzian proto-fascism mixed with a bit of national-syndicalism and 1910s futurist politics.

We have to view the Nation as a dynamic body made from the State, the people and the institutions. They would all work towards the growth and prosperity of the Nation, in both the concrete and abstract sense..

Executive monarchy because I can't stand giving the plebs the right to vote, but I have to at least give them the illusion or they'll get uppity.

Property is a spook. It makes no sense to revere property above all other spooks like libertarians do.

Probably close to Mutualist/philosophical anarchist. I don't believe in any "we musts" or "we have tos". I believe the state is essentially a dangerous institution in any context, and that it only seeks more power and domination. The state follows laws that we enact in order to feign legitimacy, and its interests only intersect with yours when it is beneficial.

At the same time, creating a movement in order to get rid of the state is essentially just giving in to the same psychological impulses and absurdities that allow the state to exist. The destruction of the state will ultimately come about once people on a large scale begin to deny its authority. So that's what I do.

Orthodox Marxism.

Fascists are dumb.

Is there a term for complete political pragmatism? I think most every social and political issue is temporary, and that cultural ethics change over time - so to me any real political ideal is a dogma best disposed of as soon as situation dictates.

I can't describe this as a nihilism or apoloticism, because I really do believe that TEMPORARY hard social positions can lessen human suffering - but what do you call yourself if you believe that neoliberalism is great for now, but definitely has a shelf life and should be reexamined every day to see if it's outlived its usefulness?

both must be true

that would be capitalism

>this fucking guy

Classical liberal I guess. I'm pretty centralist and like western civilization.

Pretty sure countries with "free-er" markets and less social safety nets have worse standards of life.

I want Israel to have a freer market.

That's it

>Petain
>Fascist

>French resistance
>Actually doing something of note

>Tojo
>Fascist

Lol. Also the red army suffered millions of more casualties then the Germans on both fronts.

Fascist is pretty much authoritarianism capitalism, to be reductive.

Also, the Red Army also won the war, key difference.

Fuck, so many typos. I need to get some sleep.

It was a pyrrhic victory at best.

>Muh K:D

That's loser talk user

>Suffer millions of more casualties
>It don't matter

Huh. It's almost as if the Russian soldiers were inferior and had to make up for this in sheer numbers or was it just bad luck and Nazi super weapons that added the extra million casualties.

>defeat germany, become one of two superpowers for a couple of decades
>PYRRHIC VICTORY GUISE

>A Pyrrhic victory is a victory that inflicts such a devastating toll on the victor that it is tantamount to defeat. Someone who wins a Pyrrhic victory has been victorious in some way. However, the heavy toll negates any sense of achievement or profit.

Sovietbros need to leave this board. The Soviet Union lost 13% of its entire population from the war.

And got half of the defeated country to boot.

And Nazis still cry about it to this day.

Soviet Union recovered in a little more than a decade.
