Introduction
I'm a member of the r/polcompballanarchy community due to the main sub going to shit, and I'm known in both for constantly changing my flair. I even have an ideology, SomeCrusaderism, that will be explained further down in the page. Although my ideology is likely to change because I'm in a state of transitioning away from mainstream conservatism.

[[File:Apolit.png]] Apolitical Stage [[File:Kak.png]]
For the first decade of my life, I had no knowledge of politics and didn't care to learn about it. Time spent thinking about boring grown up stuff was better spent playing Super Mario Galaxy after all!

[[File:Altl.png]] [[File:Crusadism.png]] Alt-Lite Theocrat Stage [[File:ProtTheo.png]] [[File:Islamophobia.png]]
My time as a 5th grader (the best age to be interested in politics ofc) was the first time I was even remotely politically engaged. What little knowledge I had came from overhearing my parents complaining about Hillary Clinton and a hatred of Muslims from learning about 9/11 and the War on Terror. The most definitive traits of my beliefs at this time were strong pro-Trump sentiment, theocratic Protestantism, and the greatest influence by far was islamophobia. My weirdest belief at this time was that the Kingdom of Jerusalem should be restored with the objective to conquer Muslim countries and replace Islam with Protestantism. Ironically, this point in my life was when I was at my least religious. I was a very wierd kid.

[[File:NeoconHelm.png]] Neoconservative Stage [[File:Trumpism.png]]
After about two years of being in the previous stage, I chilled out and became a more mainstream conservative. Name any basic conservative position, and I would likley support it, whether it be foreign interventionism, pro-police sentiments, etc.

[[File:Cap.png]] Capitalism [[File:Cap.png]]
I believe that capitalism is the best economic system we ever had, but believes that it isn't without its flaws. Minimal regulations should be put in place for the economy ( minimum wage, workplace safety regulations, making sure that food is edible and your meds don't kill people, etc.) by the states, but nothing to the extent of things like fixing prices for certain goods. The market should be left to itself for the most part, and the only economic stimulus the government should provide during recessions are tax breaks for all citizens. This will increase goods consumption and cause the economy to recover without excessive government spending.

[[File:Fiscon.png]] Social Programs [[File:Fiscon.png]]
I'm generally skeptical of social programs, especially in regards to stimulus checks and universal basic income. I see it as the government rewarding laziness, screwing over a balanced budget, and there's little assurance that the recipient would use the money for any good. You never know if someone will blow a stimulus check on gambling or drugs, after all. The welfare state should be scaled back so that the dollar can gets its value back and allow people to reclaim greater financial autonomy. However, what differentiates me from many Republicans is that welfare shouldn't be for corporations. They should be left to fend for themselves with zero state support.

[[File:Protect.png]] Hybrid Trade [[File:World.png]]
I can't say I'm fully in support of protectionism nor free trade. On the one hand, I believe America should increase its trade with Europe and Canada to maintain good relations and decrease the price of goods, but I'm also vehemently opposed to job outsourcing and seek to combat the economic domination of authoritarian regimes like China. In short, trade with American allies good, trade with China bad.

[[File:Clib.png]] Civic Liberalism [[File:Clib.png]]
TBA

[[File:Semidirect.png]] Semi-Direct Democarcy [[File:Semidirect.png]]
I think that it's best if the government is run in accordance to semi-direct democracy. In it, representatives administer daily governance, but the people have some measure of sovereignty. This sovereignty can be expressed through popular action, including referendums, popular initiative, and public consultations. Thus, citizens may be able to veto the laws of congress or propose new ones for it.

[[File:Fed.png]] Federalism [[File:Fed.png]]
I believe that most governance needs to be done by state governments, believing that they know what their citizens would need better than the national government and is far less beuracratic and wasteful than the latter. The national government, for the most part, should only concern itself with diplomacy and national security. Matters like same-sex marriage and legal drugs to be decided by states.

[[File:Modnat.png]] Patriotism [[File:Modnat.png]]
I'm a patriotic American and our leaders should strive to do whatever is in the best interest of the country. Although, I can't call myself a nationalist because of my more lax views on immigration and not being averse to international alliances and trade only if it benefits the country. In general, the interests of the USA should come first.

[[File:Civnat.png]] Immigration [[File:Civnat.png]]
I believe that Trump was right to try to combat illegal immigration, but simply ramping up border security alone was the wrong approach. While adaquate border security is a necessity, a better alternative would be to dramatically scale back the welfare state so that parasitic immigrants would be punished without the hard-working ones being punished alongside them. However, I'm still a civic nationalist, believing that someone's race or culture should have no bearing on whether or not they can immigrate. I'm also a strong advocate for interculturalism as an alternative to assimilationism and multiculturalism, believing that some shared cultural values and a sense of patriotism is essential to the cohesion of any society. Besides, the idea that immigrants are turning America towards secularism and progressivism is a myth, as the majority of immigrants are religious conservatives.

[[File:Intercult.png]] Interculturalism [[File:Intercult.png]]
I strongly support interculturalism as an alternative to assimilationism and multiculturalism. Assimilationist countries tend to be very bigoted and hateful to those outside of the national culture and sees how the same becomes of multiculturalist societies tending to self-segregate. Interculturalism is the best of both worlds because it allows for cultural diversity, but there is still a shared national identity that keeps people together.

[[File:Antiimp.png]] Anti-Interventionism [[File:Antiimp.png]]
The U.S. military is way too bloated to be justified as "national defense," as it's only being used to further endless wars and throw away money and lives alike. I'd support the U.S. military being drastically being scaled down, including shrinking the military and withdrawing from most of our foreign bases. It'll save billions of dollars, thousands of lives, and American lives will be no more endangered because of it.

[[File:Trad.png]] Summary [[File:Trad.png]]
In general, I'm a Christian Traditionalist that believes the decentralization of power is the best chance the U.S. has at combatting secularism, moral regression, and reverse racism policies such as affirmative action.

[[File:Cdem.png]] Religion [[File:Cdem.png]]
WIP

[[File:MLK Jr.png]] Race [[File:MLK Jr.png]]
I abhor racism, seeing it as being irrational and against the word of God. He believes that people need to be judged by their merits rather than ethnicity. I highly admire MLK Jr. (yes, in spite of his economic views) for his peaceful ways of attaining civil rights and his Christian rationalization of it. However, he still opposes affirmative action, believing that undermines MLK Jr.'s vision of people being judged by their character and skill rather than their race.

[[File:Acidcomf.png]] Drugs [[File:Acidcomf.png]]
This is the part where I piss off both conservatives and libertarians. Drugs should be decriminalized (legal to use, illegal to sell) and the legalization of said drugs should be left for the states to decide. Hard drugs like cocaine should remain decriminalized indefinitley. Drug dealers are comminting a far greater evil than drug users are, so police and prison resources should stop being wasted on the latter.

[[File:Gay.png]] LGBT [[File:Trans.png]]
While being against flagrant hatred towards the LGBT community, I see them and pride culture in particular as being a toxic and dangerous influence on culture. It uses guilt tripping and public shaming and outrage to get conscessions out of the state and companies, just like the Prohibition Movement last century. But no matter how many demands they accept, the movement shifts the goalposts even further. So far to the point that obscene and unscientific things like non-binary genders are forced to be normalized under threat of ostracism. They're going too far, and that any further "progress" must halt. I support asexuals and demisexuals the most (even envying them at times) and most opposed to anything supporting the narrative of a gender non-binary or gender transition.

[[File:Satan.png]] Abortion [[File:Satan.png]]
I'm vehemently against abortion. It's nothing short of euthenasia and the fact that it's being glorified as empowering is both disgusting and terrifying. I vehemently support the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade and believe that states should be allowed to enact their own abortion policies with after 3 months of gestation being the national maximum.

 * [[File:Plcn2.png]] Paleoconservatism - Too statist and nationalistic for my liking but you're miles better than Neo"""Cons."""

Mixed

 * [[File:Christy.png]] Christian Theocracy - I don't mind you in theory, but you usually end up getting horribly corrupted like [[File:Catheo.png]] him.
 * [[File:Catheo.png]] Catholic Theocracy - You may be a p*pist but I'll take your conservative followers over liberal Protestants.
 * [[File:Civlibert.png]] Civil Libertarianism - You have excellent takes on government surveillance, gun rights, and hate speech laws, but when you talk about abortion and the LGBT I wish my eardrums would burst.
 * [[File:RepubUS.png]] Republican Party - I used to support you wholeheartedly, but your increasing statism, jingoism, and support of corporate welfare has pushed me away more and more. Still better than the Democrats, though.

Negative Leaning

Negative

 * [[File:NeoconHelm.png]] Neoconservatism - Your militarism, statism, and drastic increasing of the national deficit have been a disaster for the US. Not even your cultural views can redeem you because of how you ditch them the moment you gain power.
