Soulism

Soulism, formerly known as Ego-Communalism, is an off-the-compass  Libertarian-left ethos focused on eradicating suffering and hierarchy and reaching a spiritual Nirvana. It believes in the complete collectivisation of all property, a belief taken from Communalism but for the benefit of each ego involved thus creating a hivemind of enlightened souls.

Furthermore, Soulism believes that not only should the hierarchy of the state or capitalism be abolished but also the laws of nature and natalism, viewing this life and this universe as inherently built upon non-consensual suffering. Soulism aims to escape these hierarchies not through organised revolution as most anarchists do, but through a combination of advanced technology and deorganised spiritual exploration.

They are often depicted using psychedelic plants/fungi like ayahuasca or psilocybin.

Beliefs
While Soulism is antitheist, viewing the hierarchy between Man and God as hierarchical, it holds autonomy and individuality as core principles and therefore embraces the concept of being one collective consciousness where each member is free to think and act for himself. Soulists are deeply ecological, embracing technoprimitivism and ethical veganism as this dismantles the power Man has over nature and gives nature the autonomy it must have in the collective consciousness which it will be a part of. It is also anti-natalist, viewing life as non-consensual and birthing someone as inflicting suffering onto that person.

When applied to philosophy, Soulists split all existence into 2 categories - the Real and Irreal. The real refers to objective, discovered truths such as science whereas the Irreal refers to subjective, man-made concepts like spirituality. In both these categories, actions can be seperated by science into those that help, harm or do nothing. Those that help are fair, those that harm are unfair, and those that do nothing...do nothing.

Soulists make a key distinction between hierarchies and regulations, viewing hierarchies as oppressive and regulations to be helpful to the community. For example, restricting harassment and discrimination will be helpful to those who were being harrassed but God can only subjugate Man.

Lastly, Soulists reject institutional science, instead embracing 'Soulist science' which contains the following precepts:
 * Having drugs would not cause addiction
 * Sex chromosomes have zero correlation with the gender of a person
 * Non-vegans are serial killers
 * Cannibalism is not unethical
 * Killing is not unethical

[[File:Soul.png]] Classical Soulism
Stereotypical archetype of Soulists - does nothing except being on drugs all the time and enjoying life. Often lives in his lucid dreams (mostly doing orgies with fictional characters from various media, visiting fictional worlds for curiousity or just enjoying vacation on various theoretical space megastructures like Ring-Worlds/Bishop Rings/O'Neil Cylinders...), while downshifting in reality, or even sleeping all time in anabiosis pod with autonomous energy, liquid food and anti-aging drugs supply. If he is threatened by someone, he simply shifts his mind to a safer dimension without a threat source.

Personality and Behaviour
Perpetually stoned off his balls. If not stoned, then mostly sticking with VR gadgets. Wishes to rid himself of a physical form.

Often sleeps and lucid dreams about utopian places and favourite fictional universes, while listening to psytrance.

Likes talking with aliens in the astral plane (and sometimes get new knowledge and technologies from them).

Escapes from all problems, responsibilities and threats by simply "Shifting" his consciousness to more safer universe.

Very apathetic, and hates anything related to dynamic things like working, careerism, ambitions, workaholism, material hedonism (because they cost money) and "rat race economics".

IDK, man

 * [[File:Communalist.png]] Communalism - I agree with ideas of peace and love but it can turn into an evil sect.
 * [[File:Transh.png]] Transhumanists - Cool beans, man. But many of your variants are oppressive.
 * [[File:Kak.png]] Kakistocracy - That kid on one hand is too stupid to understand the meaning of the universe and consciousness, but on the other hand, he believes in magic and supernatural things because of his childish mind.
 * [[File:Archai.png]] Post-Humanism - While I’m doing my peaceful meditations, tantric orgies, and lucid dreams, robots protect me from violent reactionary thugs. Still, your science fiction variants like Deus Ex Machina, SkyNet GladOS, Allied Mastercomputer or Roko's Basilisk are very oppressive and violent.
 * [[File:Avar.png]] Avaritionism - I don't want to pay for my weed. Welp, time to permanently shift my soul to safer dimension I guess.

 * [[File:Sikhmini.png]] Sikh Theocracy & [[File:Hind.png]] Hindu Theocracy - Not a fan of religion or government, dude. Spiritual, but not really religious. You're telling me I can reincarnate!?
 * [[File:Christy.png]] Christian Theocracy & [[File:Anarchristian.png]] Christian Anarchism - You're telling me that the son of God got absolutely wasted, died, came back 3 days later, and finally ascended into a higher realm? Sounds pretty awesome, but again, not a big fan of monotheistic religion.
 * [[File:Merc.png]] Mercantilism - Not a fan of his economics but he sells me opium he couldn't sell to the Chinese, so we're cool.

 * [[File:Ford.png]] Fordism - I don't like how you're capitalist and statist, but that soma stuff is pretty good and you are fun at the orgies.
 * [[File:Scientocracy Small.png]] Scientocracy - What do you mean that the astral plane is pseudoscientific bullshit? But thanks a lot for the new drugs, floating pods and VR tech.
 * [[File:Posadist.png]] Posadism - Dude, you're genuinely pretty fun for an authoritarian; like wow.
 * [[File:Annil.png]] Anarcho-Nihilism - I may understand you, but it's better to just take weed and escape enjoy life. If you’re really bored of this universe, you can shift your mind to another, more desirable one, and you can stay there permanently!
 * [[File:Annil.png]] - I try but even your drugs don’t work for longer than an hour.
 * [[File:Prog-u.png]] Progressivism - I understand your enthusiasm for a better future, but your narrow-minded material hedonism holds you back spiritually and burns all your wealth into nothing. Why not try spiritual hedonism, like eating all your favorite foods in lucid dreams or having orgies with imaginary characters in the astral realm?
 * [[File:Ultraprogressivism.png]] Revolutionary Progressivism - Same as above, but man, you're a little too much of a mob and collectivist fanatic. (But your egoist and post-left variants are very based)
 * [[File:Progconf.png]] Progressive Conservatism - A tolerable elder, but still pretty restrictive and forces me to work. If only he understood that magic mushrooms, weed, DMT, and LSD are harmless soft drugs.
 * [[File:Anprim.png]] Anarcho-Primitivism - Bro, it's really cool that we go into spiritual space with psychic substances in shamanic ceremonies, but I hope you realize that technology can also help us.
 * [[File:Pacfem-1.png]] Pacifist Feminism - I don't know, I would normally appreciate the love of "shifting" and "embracing spirituality" and stuff like that, but it seems like you're just using those things to look cool on Tumblr, Twitter, TikTok or whatever other stupid trendy website you love so much; and stop stealing from concepts and cultures you don't actually understand to seem hip; like c'mon you just look cringeworthy man.
 * [[File:Anti-Humanism.png]] Anti-Humanism - I don't know if you just want to fight against the concept of "human" itself, or if you really want to kill everyone.
 * [[File:6ball.png]] Alien bros/foes - I often contact them in the astral plane. Someone of [[File:Alien.png]] them are really friendly and want to share wisdom and knowledge through telepathy ( that's why I have better technologies than the rest of the other balls combined ), but others are either [[File:Reptilians.png]] hostile scumbags who just love to scare me or [[File:Pleiadean.png]] arrogant pricks that ignore me.

 * [[File:Krater.png]] Kraterocracy - Really uncool, dude.
 * [[File:Conservative.png]] Conservatism - "Find a job, quit drugs, and be a normal citizen"? Sorry old man, but I'm living inside my own lucid dreams while downshifting in reality. And after that, every material thing becomes boring and uninteresting.
 * [[File:Technocracy.png]] Technocracy - He calls me irrational, boring. If only he understand, that lucid dreams inspired famous philosophers and scientists to invent scientific methods!
 * [[File:Senatorialism_(Tentacles).png]] Astral demons - Oh no, those nightmarish eldritch abominations still scaring me in the astral plane!
 * [[File:esofash.png]] CRINGE incarnate - My arch-enemy who's really obsessed with unjust hierarchies, dumb laws of anything, and pointless caste systems. One "day" I will annihilate him in the astral realm. Because fighting with you in physical realm causes paradox.
 * [[File:Mediastocracy flair.png]] Mediacracy - Your news is really boring compared to the surreal non-existent anime that I watched with my harem in the astral plane.
 * [[File:Esosoc.png]] Esoteric Socialism - Fake leftists, fake humans (I see their demonic nature with my spiritual third eye), and fake anti-capitalists that like money and banks.
 * [[File:Cultism.png]] Cultism - Pseudo-spiritual power-hungry and money-loving prick that give spirituality a bad name.
 * [[File:Captrans.png]] Capitalist Transhumanism - You can't hide your technologies blueprints because I have the ability to spy through remote viewing! But actually I don't need your low-tech products, because aliens through astral give me a lot nicer blueprints of nano-factories.
 * [[File:react.png]] Reactionaryism - How the hell is your civilization supposed to be stable and fundamental when it's literally only lived 1% of human history? Like, are you aware that the other 99% was just people chilling in the stone age not having to worry about all this 'family values' garbage? You know nothing about history, and your religions are dogmatic unspiritual garbage made for the elites to control the masses.
 * [[File:Corp.png]] Corporatocracy - Why do I need to buy material and temporary luxuries when I can just lucid dream and have anything I want? Even if I want a material thing, I just shift my mind to other dimensions where I already have it.
 * [[File:Satan.png]] Satanic Theocracy - There is no hell in the afterlife, only the astral realm. And your dumb cruel rituals can't help you achieve demonic powers. Thanks for giving me your female servants, non-material bro.

 * [[File:World_Federalism2.png]] World Federalism - Sorry, but humanism is outdated.
 * [[File:Humanismpix.png]] Humanism - I. Said. You. Are. OUTDATED!
 * [[File:PolState.png]] Police Statism - How the hell is taking harmless psychic substances a crime? Also, I don't have enough money for paying fines.
 * [[File:Neolud.png]] Neoluddism - Dude, I'm kind of at a loss for understanding what you can do for yourself just by opposing technology. Yes, all jobs suck, but destroying machinery and screwing others is not a solution!
 * [[File:Ochlo.png]] Ochlocracy - Collectivist morons that just give people the impression that anarchism equals violence.
 * [[File:Statlib.png]] State Liberalism - Dude, bigotry sucks yeah, but violently obsessing over who is and isn't a minority so much is just the definition of fighting fire with fire, and a lot of what you're doing really makes me wonder if you actually care about minorities. Also why are you pointing a gun at me?
 * [[File:Rpop-tinfoilhat.png]] Right-Wing Populism - Yes, reptilians exist. Yes, they control humanity, but honestly how is your ideal world really any better?
 * [[File:Indust.png]] Industrialism - Nah, f*ck all jobs. If I want something, I'll just shift my mind to someplace else.
 * [[File:Ormarxf.png]] Marxism - No, I don't care about your outdated materialist philosophy that subtly encourages its followers to become dictators.
 * [[File:ML.png]] Marxism-Leninism - Collectivist materialist maniacs who murder anyone they disagree with. But that vodka stuff you drink is really good
 * [[File:Nazi.png]] Nazism - Oh no, not these crackhead genocidal lunatics! At least we both like meth.
 * [[File:Reptilians.png]] Illuminatism - You are cold-blooded aliens in a human disguise (just spied through astral remote viewing). But you are too powerful for overthrow, so I'll just wait for your hierarchical capitalist system to fall from its own weight. Wait. Why someone at midnight knocks on my door? And what the hell do I see black helicopters?! Are they knowing something about... *kidnapped*
 * [[File:Thanto.png]] Death - You can kill others, but you NEVER catch me! *Concentrates his mind* Time to permanently shift my awareness into my younger self in ten, nine, eight...
