Welp, this has been fun. But, I'm leaving because this shit is boring as fuck now. Especially with what happened on the PCBA Wikipedia, It's not funny because I spent quite some time out of fun developing some pages just for everything to either get reverted or wiped entirely, which most of the stuff I made got entirely wiped. Also, this community is full of immature fuckheads who would never last a single second in their ideal "based and redpilled" society. There's only like three people here who are old enough to vote which makes it even more embarrassing, most people would die of cringe by the stuff you guys write, "I'm an esoteric nazi" you think anyone is taking you seriously? Although, it has been very interesting having casual conversations with people whose ideal societies I would've been murdered in for one reason or another, although I really don't care because I don't take any of this seriously nor should I. I'll be following the footsteps of several other users who have left since it seems like the right thing to do. I'll be glad when this shit community finally dies. Adiós, amigos. 👋

If you want to see my ideological beliefs, which I have not deleted but will not develop any further, go here:. Basically, my ideology is civically libertarian, democratic, economically center-left, left-nationalist, and diplomatically internationalist. I hold culturally liberal views, but I'm critical of woke culture that is associated with modern day progressivism, but mostly side with the cultural left since most of my beliefs are aligned with them. So, I'm your average American liberal and left-libertarian who hates unjust authority, both the government and corporations.

= Other Stuff =

[[File:Prgess.png]] Social
I'm a cultural liberal and support social egalitarianism. This would include things like lgbt rights, feminism, and reproductive rights. However, I oppose woke SJWness because I see these as suppressing my individual worth as a person, making me culturally center-left in the west and orthodoxly culturally progressive in developing countries countries.

[[File:Civilib.png]] Civil
I value liberty over security, and I am a liberal in-terms of cultural expression. I believe in the expansion and preservation of civil liberties, anyone should be allowed to do whatever they want for the most part when it is victimless and isn't harming anyone else. So, I'm opposed to government intervention in personal people's lives. However, I don't consider myself a libertarian because the government needs to be centralized enough to provide people goods and services to uphold the individual rights of the population.

[[File:Socdem.png]] Economics
I'm center-left economically, my economic base is social corporatism. I support a strongly regulated dirigisme-style economy were the market is controlled by state-owned enterprises, in which the government invests into those SOE's using a SWF. However, I am not a socialist because I still believe in property rights and the means of production aren't being given to the workers. I specifically identify as a left-social democrat, since my economic views are closer to post-WW2 social democrats than third-way neoliberal social democrats that arose out of the 1980's due to things like globalization.

[[File:Leftnat.png]] Foreign
I am an anti-colonial left-wing nationalist who opposes globalism and all forms of imperialism. And, to a certain extent, I am isolationist. I'm opposed to globalization because it is the main driver of economic liberalism and the destruction of the welfare state which has caused all of the wealth to go into the hands of big business elites while also being the cause of neo-imperialism where major powers dominate the economies of smaller countries through unrestricted free-trade and globalization. I don't want to involve myself in most regional alliances since I see them as imperialistic, but I'm not opposed to regional alliances so long as they're not neoliberal or imperialistic. However, I'm also pro-international co-operation on issues were it matters like technology and the environment, but opposed to economic globalization. So my form of internationalism is called alter-globalization, I support an interconnected world that helps each other for what I just mentioned among other things without shady globalist organizations. Also, I support a mixture of cultural nationalism and civic nationalism, with interculturalism being how cultures interact with each other in society, since multiculturalism is a neoliberal ploy that will destroy not only our culture, but native cultures as well, it will undermine the social cohesion necessary for a social democratic state. Immigrants have to assimilate if they want to come here but they don't have to give up their cultures so long as they learn our culture and properly integrate into society.

Political Phases
Apolitical Period (2003 - 2012)

I know, It's crazy. My childhood had no mention of poltics because I wasn't even able to grasp the idea of politics. None of us start political and I was no exception.

Apolitical Social Liberalism Period (2012 - 2016)

I still didn't hold a good idea of what our political climate was, but I voiced my support for Obama's candidacy. This was largely because my parents were solidly blue voters, which obviously influenced a lot of my opinions at the time. Although, I lost interest after the election and stop caring up until 2016, but still held vague liberal ideas throughout this period.

Entering The 2016 Election (2016)

This is were my political journey truly began. When the election came around, I was old enough to understand our political climate in limit contexts, which allowed to form the views I held on politics on my own. So, I found myself hating both the candidates Trump and Hillary. However, I found myself discovering politicians like Bernie Sanders who I found quite likable, so I followed them for a little bit until the election was over. However, my political journey doesn't end here obviously, because it all came tumbling down when I discovered political videos.

Alt-Lite Phase (2017 - 2019)

So, as much as a cringe looking back at this now. I had an alt-lite phase, this came from watching "anti-sjw" videos on youtube. So, as you can imagine, I was hostile to things like feminism and transgender people, but still thought abortion rights were cool. Overall, it was confusing and I really dislike this bit of my political journey, I was your average counter-culture atheist at the time who just didn't like political correctness.

Moderating My Views (2019 - 2021)

After the shitstorm that was my beliefs during my alt-lite phase started to settle down because of the environment and mindset I was in shifted, I started to become less hostile to things like feminism and warmed up to progressive ideals. Although, I still hated things like political correctness and identity politics, but still found myself disagreeing with the majority of conservative view points. It was also around this time I stopped being transphobic. I just became way more mature in my beliefs, it was also around this time I watched some breadtube content which also influenced my ideas.

Progressive Social Democrat Phase (Mid 2021 - Mid 2022)

After warming up to progressive ideals for a long time, I started to go down progressive rabbit holes and became more socially progressive. I held progressive ideas on things like feminism, gay rights, and started to embrace things like multiculturalism. So, I was your average progressive, a self-described progressive left-populist social democrat. Although, I started to realize that I was abandoning my original beliefs when I started to buy into socially progressive idpol, which made me realize that I had to take a step back.

Returning to My Roots (Mid 2022+)

So, as you can imagine, I did a 180 in my beliefs and returned to what I believed in pre-2021, and it felt really good to do so. It felt as if I betrayed some of my previous values going into the phase I did and I came out better because of it. There were also some positions I adopted over time such as georgism, and I abandoned populism sometime during November of this year. So, I'm basically your average liberal, and that's the end of my political journey.

[[File:Existentialism.png]] Metaphysics
I am a philosophical existentialist, as far I'm concerned about my own existence, we're just here and there's no rational explanation for why that is. So, I adopt an anti-foundational approach to this and reject metaphysics, since metaphysical theories are just pointless theories about the universe that are hardly scientific, and are essentialistic since they assume how the universe operations on.

[[File:Constructivist.png]] Epistemology
I'm a social constructivst, I believe people's upbringings are important for determining their behavior and that there are no "inherent traits" in people. So, social constructivism is needed to look at society at large and to determine the needs of people within said society. Along with this, your emotions and ideals heavily influence you and should be what guides you through decision making, since rationality as a concept regards human reason as the chief source of knowledge, this cannot be relied on when it tries to put something over your own ideals. In this regard, I'm opposed to humanism as a philosophy since it regards humans as the chief source of knowledge and replaces god with man, I would be anti-humanist.

[[File:Idealval.png]] Ontology
I'm an ontological idealist and subjectivist, I believe sticking true to your own ideals defines your character, and that reality is subjective to the eyes of the beholder. It's important to stick true to your own ideals since those are what guide you through your experiences you choose to go through using the free will we have.

[[File:Indiv.png]] Ethics
I am an individualist, I firmly believe in individual liberty and that anyone can do anything they want to so long as they aren't breaking the harm principle, since we have free will to create meaning in our lives, we naturally use our individual liberty to create that meaning through our own experiences we choose to partake in. So, in this regard, all morals are relative to people who choose to create meaning in their lives, so universal morals don't exist when morals are written within cultural contexts.

[[File:Hedonism.png]] Morals
How I use the free will to create meaning in my life is through philosophical hedonism, I believe that pleasure is the highest good in life. Now, what pleasure am I talking about? Sense pleasure means many things that it could be argued that we are all hedonists in the sense we tend to want to do things that bring up pleasure and avoid pain, I'm talking about sensual pleasures. Now, you can probably imagine what this is going to lead to, so I won't go any further because it would make my page NSFW. You may be asking, why hedonism? Well it's actually pretty easy, mostly just because of my impulsive behavior as a person which comes from my ADHD, since ADHD as a mental health condition is associated with inattentiveness and impulsiveness, this has naturally led me to being very guided by own ideals throughout my entire life, and I find it hard not to since these are my natural behaviors as a person.

[[File:Atheism.png]] Religious
I am an atheist, the concept of god doesn't exist in a literal sense so I naturally don't believe in god or any form of religions. This is because I've never been religious or have ever believed in the concept of god or any form of spirituality. I've been an atheist my entire life, so this should be really no surprise.

Based

 * [[File:Prog.png]] Progressivism - I take many inspirations from you, but you tend to become worse the more developed a place is. Which is why I prefer paleoprogressivism.
 * [[File:Paleoprog.png]] Paleoprogressivism - My form of progressivism.
 * [[File:Modprog.png]] Moderate Progressivism - My cultural views. Some traditions are worth preserving. I just don't like idpol and other woke things associated with modern day progressivism.
 * [[File:Natprog.png]] National Progressivism - The true progressive.
 * [[File:Progconf.png]] Progressive Conservatism - We need to account for traditions worth keeping.

 * [[File:Globnat.png]] Alter-Globalization - We need a world were the global economy works for all, not the few.
 * [[File:Fem.png]] Feminism - Fighting for the rights of both sexes is important. It's a shame what TERFs and libfems have done to give modern day feminism a bad name. The amount of people I see supporting feminist ideas while not calling themselves a feminist is hilarious, I was like that too.
 * [[File:Socfem.png]] Social Feminism - My form of feminism, woke globohomo isn't progressive, libfems have given modern day feminism a bad name.
 * [[File:Geokitty.png]] Georgism - Our admiration of cats and taxing land is based, even if you lack the regulatory side.
 * [[File:Anin.png]] Anarcho-Individualism - The collective is nothing without the individual, but you cannot say the same for the reserve. But in all seriousness, while this is a neat concept, this would never work in reality, still my favorite anarchist ideology.
 * [[File:HedoSoul.png]] Esoteric Hedonism - Unironically based.
 * [[File:Civilib.png]] Civil Liberalism - You're basically my view on society.
 * [[File:Corptism.png]] Corporatism - Your general ideas are good. Anti-globalization, economic nationalism, and state-controlled economy.
 * [[File:Social corpratism.png]] Social Corporatism - Even better!
 * [[File:Civlibert.png]] Civil Libertarianism - The harm principle is based. Society would be nothing without you.
 * [[File:Keynes.png]] Keynesianism - I owe everything to you! I specifically like your new keynesian variant.
 * [[File:Protect.png]] Protectionism - We want our jobs back, although I prefer your fair-trade variant because you tend to make goods unreasonably expensive, better than the average globetard.
 * [[File:FDRismF.png]] New Deal Liberalism - You are the true form of social liberalism, this should be the dominant form of liberalism in the West, not the third-way version.

Neutral

 * [[File:Zio.png]] Zionism - The idea of a Jewish state isn't bad, and I would call myself a post-zionist because the mission statement of Zionism has been ideologically complete. However, your human rights abuses among other things are very cringe.
 * [[File:Cermon.png]] Ceremonial Monarchism - Monarchs are cringe. But, I really don't care about them so long as they aren't oppressive, still don't like them and wouldn't cry if they were abolished but I just don't care either way.
 * [[File:Lpop.png]] Left-Wing Populism - Look, populism is something I do not stand against, but you're often a puppet of demagogues who don't have the best interests of the people at heart. Although, I tend to trust left-pops more than right-pops for reasons that are obvious. But still, I'm not fond of populism.
 * [[File:Soclib.png]] Social Liberalism - The base ideology alone is actually good, so you're not bad. But, your modern day adherents are too neoliberal for my liking.
 * [[File:Isolation.png]] Isolationism - On domestic affairs, most regional alliances, and the military, you have the right idea on foreign policy. However, sometimes intervention is needed, like what could've been seen with America entering WW2, and sealing yourself off from the world completely isn't what I'm aiming for.
 * [[File:Libsoc.png]] Libertarian Socialism - You're ok, but your violation of property rights are not for me.
 * [[File:WelfChauvin.png]] Welfare Chauvinism - Kinda based, but chill out with the racism and populism please.

Cringe

 * [[File:Conservative.png]] Conservatism - Just because I'm opposed to the politically correct status quo doesn't mean I support you. At least the woke crowd evolves with time to learn and are heading in the right direction, you're so indoctrinated you have yet to open your eyes.
 * [[File:SJW.png]] SJWism - Fuck you for turning modern day progressivism into a joke. I'm socially permissive, but your obsession with focusing on identities and cancel culture undermine all of my values. This is why I prefer paleoprogressivism.
 * [[File:Fash.png]] Fascism - Being an edgy teenager who just discovered politics is not a political ideology.
 * [[File:Nazi.png]] National Socialism - Even worse than the above, with even worse modern day followers. I don't have to particularly explain why I'm opposed to Nazism and Neo-Nazism, now do I?
 * [[File:ML.png]] Marxism-Leninism - You're basically no better than the fascists, collectivism in all of its forms must be strongly opposed.
 * [[File:Dengf.png]] Dengism - China is not transitioning to Market Socialism, and is an authoritarian capitalist country. Xi Jing Ping has undone all of the good liberal reforms to the country and is going back towards Mao's era of totalitarianism. Free Hong Kong and Taiwan.
 * [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] Neoliberalism - I don't care if you respect individualism, you're a plague in the West that is driving free-market economic liberalism and all of the wealth going into the hands of top business owners. I pray on your downfall, death to the neoliberal status quo!
 * [[File:React.png]] Reactionarism - Have you ever considered the fact that maybe you are the degenerate? Also, stop jerking off to traps and leave your house once in a while before you call me a degenerate.
 * [[File:Necon.png]] Neoconservatism - Just die.
 * [[File:Altl.png]] Alt-Lite - I genuinely resent my past so much. Go back to the basement were you belong you edgy child.
 * [[File:Altr.png]] Alt-Right - You can't point towards a more sadder group of people than this, now can you? Like, seriously, how are you revolting against the modern world when your search history is drawn porn? Also, to no one's surprise, your followers are all toxic and unpleasant to talk to.
 * [[File:Patcon.png]] Paternalistic Conservatism - PiS and Lukashenko are cancer.
 * [[File:World.png]] Globalism - You will be the death of workers rights and our national identity. Death to all globetards, if you advocate for this you are dead to me.
 * [[File:Multicult.png]] Multiculturalism - You've caused nothing but chaos for any society you're practiced under.
 * [[File:Antifa.png]] Antifa - Woke authoritarian moralists. I'm obviously opposed to fascism on an ideological and philosophical level, but you guys are a bunch of domestic terrorists. WW2 anti-fascist partisans would kill themselves if they saw the state anti-fascism is in.
 * [[File:Annil.png]] Anarcho-Nihilism - You're intellectual laziness codified into an ideology, grow up.
