About to do a massive rework of this and my self insert

Hello, I’m GeneralGanyu!

Economic
I believe in a market based economy where the workers own the means of production through worker co-operatives (in other words, my economic system resembles Market Socialism and  Distributism, especially the latter in countries where socialism has a bad reputation

Big businesses, major industries, and essential services should be public, whereas small and medium enterprises should be private, although they should be encouraged to become worker co-operatives, given benefits if they do although not excessively and there would still be regulations to ensure they don’t exploit government grants, and I wish to switch to a mostly co-op based economy in the long term

Rent should be abolished, and local housing organizations should give subsidized housing. Although part of housing improvement should also be left to the owners of said house and their skills

Universal healthcare and free education should be implemented, although multiple options should exist in the form of health insurance co-operatives in the event that one is dissatisfied with the public option

I believe in strong trust busting. Whenever a company is too big, smaller companies of the same service get left into the dust. In a truly free market, all companies must be given equal opportunity

I’m alright with millionaires existing, provided they got rich through hard work and ethical methods, but not billionaires. It’s impossible to become a billionaire through ethical means, and all are involved in exploitation. A wealth cap of no more than 100 million should exist, and billionaires should have all their money redistributed, and charged for their crimes. these sick fucks in particular should pay for their crimes. A more pragmatic situation would be the following: Note that ideally all exploitative billionaires would get the guillotine, and this is merely a more pragmatic vision, at least for the short term
 * those that could actually provide use to society: break up the monopoly, allow smaller companies of the same sector to form, and have whatever remaining factories belonging to the original company become cooperatives, with the state stepping in on some occasions to stop any exploitative actions and to ensure that said businesses remain co-ops, but generally letting said businesses do whatever as long as they follow the government’s orders (ex: can’t return to the traditional business model), and divert them from exploitative sources and towards more ethical ones. Basically those in such categories would be forced into becoming servants of the new worker’s state, but the workers will be given far more power
 * those that provide no worth and are exploitative - jail or death

Social
I’m a prog-con and see it as the only sensible cultural system, even if I have leanings depending on region. For example, I strongly believe in racial and gender equality, which is a culturally left take. I don’t hate LGBT individuals provided that they aren’t flamboyant about such, and although I personally support traditional marriage and seek to promote such, I’ll leave that issue to the states, that could count as a culturally center take. And a culturally right take of mine is how I am strictly anti-abortion, thinking it should only be allowed if the mother will be at risk from giving birth. But abortion will NOT be left to the states, there should be a nationwide ban. These are just some examples and I’ll show more examples later

As mentioned earlier, I am vehemently anti-abortion, believing that it violates the right of life for those who did nothing wrong. For me, the only time that abortion should be legal is when the mother will be harmed from giving birth in some way or another.

In addition, despite me strongly supporting racial equality and wanting to fix problems that African-Americans and Native Americans currently face, I oppose any form of national/racial guilt among the general public (although we should apologize to said tribes) as well as demonizing many historical presidents, seeing how it was the thing of their time, unless said presidents were particularly repressive towards such even for the standards of back then, and see it as unfeasible, and that moving towards a brighter future is the better way to go.

As mentioned, although I tend to lean conservative on such issues, gay marriage will be left to the states. However there are still guidelines that all areas must follow regardless (ex: if marriage is recognized, only in the legal sense having no cultural impact, if not recognized, don’t go on hate rants). Basically society’s view should be to accept LGBT individuals for who they are but hold disdain for those flamboyant about such. Widespread discussion of such, positive or negative, should be taboo. Though tbh I wouldn’t fight to repeal gay marriage, but rather get rid of it’s cultural influence

Pornography and prostitution should be outlawed, however I would initially take the Nordic Model approach in countries where it’s an issue, criminalizing buyers and helping those in such industries escape, and once it’s at an acceptable rate, full criminalization of such industries would be implemented. This is one of the few exceptions to my views on free speech in non-emergency situations

For drugs, hard ones would have possession decriminalized, but sale criminalized. Whether the same would apply to marijuana or not would apply to the states

I am a staunch environmentalist as well, and aim for a carbon neutral world and promoting renewable energy, in addition to restoring destroyed habitats or possibly even de-extinction of most species

I oppose multiculturalism, and want immigrants to learn the national culture. However, they may still practice their native culture. Note that this primarily applies to immigrants although native minorities would also be encouraged to take part in such, although not necessarily required, but all that native minorities need to do is adopt national identity. For a diverse country, there should be a lingua franca, a common national identity, common celebrations, and a few common customs, although nationality would be put over ethnic/cultural group. For immigrants, for a monocultural country, they have to learn the national culture, for a more diverse country, they have to learn a national culture, mainly the one of whatever region they move to

A citizen should have the right to bear arms, however background checks and mental health checkups are needed

Foreign
While I support restricted trade with other nations, I oppose ideological backing and military alliances

West Or East?
Although I have a very slight leaning towards the east, both sides are pretty bad and neither deserve a hegemony of any form, though the west has been worse abroad

Afghanistan
The Islamic Emirate is undoubtedly bad, but the previous government was also terrible. If only the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan never fell

Armenia and Azerbaijan
Artsakh is Armenia and Azerbaijan (and by extention, Turkey) should accept that the Armenian Genocide happened. However I am convinced that the Khojaly Massacre also happened and Armenia should apologize for such.

Belarus
Lukashenko is bad but there’s no way in hell I’m supporting a pro-EU color revolution. For me there should be an actual government of the left that is non aligned

China
Taiwan is independent, but everything else belongs to the PRC. While I support federalization for the cases of Tibet and Xinjiang, Hong Kong was a city stolen by the British, so there’s ultimately no reason for them to have autonomy (and btw those that wave the British flag are national traitors or at least misguided. I get that they are too young to know the oppression the Brits have done but it still happened and they should learn from the older generations). Hong Kong should either be incorporated into Guangzhou or have a status similar to that of Beijing or Shanghai

Georgia
Whether Abkhazia or South Ossetia should be independent or a part of Georgia but given high autonomy should be decided in a referendum

“Israel” and Palestine
While I’m not against Israel’s mere existence, their actions are unacceptable. There should either be a Singapore-esque model in Israel, or a 2 state solution in which Palestine is a condominium, Israel abandons Zionism in favor of a different Jewish patriot ideology, and Palestine purges Hamas and other Islamic extremists

Cyprus
The TRNC is nothing more than a failed Turkish puppet state

Somaliland
Somaliland is independent and far more prosperous than Somalia

Syria
I support Rojava in Kurdistan, and think that Kurdistan should be independent, but I support Assad in the rest of Syria

Ukraine
Whether Crimea, Donetsk, and Lugansk should be Russian or Ukrainian should be decided in a referendum, but Russia is to leave Ukraine alone afterwards and I certainly oppose the war. This is rather idealistic though so a more realistic solution would be to give Crimea to Russia but give Donbass to Ukraine, with high cultural autonomy. But Ukraine is also to stay out of NATO and the EU. That being said though I wholeheartedly oppose the invasion and believe that Ukraine has a right to defend itself, but they are still way overglorified

Government
I believe in a federal, direct democratic system where all citizens 16+ have a say in local affairs (but 18+ for national). I believe in local popular, nonpartisan assemblies, in addition to how partisanism should only be on the national and maybe state level. There should be a multiparty system in addition to ranked choice voting, a multi-party system, and proportional representation

Positive
Market Socialism and Distributism - my ideologies

Social Georgism - LVT and leftist economics? Based! Sun Yat-sen, Jeremy Corbyn, and Joshua Nkomo are also based

Progressive Conservatism - the only sensible cultural ideology

Positive Leaning
Paternalistic Conservatism - decent and I like Poland and Khama, but again, too moderate economically speaking. Good transition system though

Libertarian Socialism - fellow supporter of liberty and socialism, although too extreme. And most of you in the west are libs. Still overall based though

Regional
Gaddafism - for all your faults, you were overall a positive force for Libya. If only you weren’t overthrown. The Green Book is also something I’m interested in. Sadly Obama, Hitlary Klanton, and their backed rebels had to oust you

Neutral
Social Democracy and Keynesianism - were good back then, antiquated nowadays and too soft and compromised

Social Liberalism and Social Capitalism - same as above but even worse

Classical Liberalism - again, was good, antiquated nowadays

Conservatism - can be good for maintaining traditions and preserving old glory, but some traditions also have to go

Progressivism - we should advance as a society and I acknowledge that some traditions are harmful, but the good ones must be kept

Regional
Indigenism - in some countries you’re based. For the case of America, I believe that indigenous areas should be given a greater degree of self governance, want to improve their lives and socioeconomic conditions, and believe that native minorities shouldn’t need to integrate, but merely adopt the national identity and patriotism, I oppose movements like Landback and generally see such reclamations as unfeasible

Negative Leaning
Marxism-Leninism - while I credit you for improving women’s rights, healthcare, education, and ousting rightoids, still too far left and regulated

Social Capitalism, Social Liberalism, Keynesianism, and Social Democracy (nowadays) - you are only going to give us some milquetoast welfare programs and generally are way too soft. Also for the last time, reform doesn’t work. Both your economics and how Bernie (someone I like) lost the primary to Hitlary Klanton, in addition to how Corbyn gets screwed over by the Labour Party constantly proves that

Classical Liberalism (nowadays) - terrible economics and also an antiquated ideology as mentioned earlier. You did your service but you have to go now

Negative
Capitalism - an economy based on greed and exploitation. The true free market is Distributism and Market Socialism, end of story.

Right-Libertarianism - no. Just no. Laissez faire and extreme civic libertarianism is cringe. Free speech and pro-gun is based but that’s it

Revolutionary Progressivism and Reactionarism - you’re literally the same shit just focused on different identities.

Regional
Neoconservatism and Neoliberalism - STOP THE POINTLESS WARS AND “FREE MARKET” ECONOMIC LIBERALISM!

Third Way - liking welfare doesn’t make you any better than the two above.

User Relations
NOTE: I am not adding an enemy section and quite frankly I think they should be banned to minimize drama

Comments
- what is your thought on my other stuff section in my user wiki critiques ?

I agree with you on the American political climate -
 * - thanks anything else

Hey would you mind adding me, I am not sure about you and your idelogy but you seem ok https://polcompball.miraheze.org/wiki/UserWiki:Anglo-germanic_socialist


 * Sure, I can add you. And I saw your comment on the CivLib page. Admittedly I had a pretty bad anti-progressive phase, I still would be considered conservative leaning for the standards of the west, but I went too far back then (and also slightly toned down on said social conservatism). So my apologies -

Ok I understand, and thats alright I have had cringe phases at points as well (hell I was an alt lite once), you seem alright also I don’t mind consocs who are too overly heavily with that, like milk for an exmaple
 * Yeah, MLK was based, and I oppose both extremes. I also don’t mind progressive socialists who aren’t too heavy on such (or just generally anyone who isn’t too heavy on either cultural side) -

UserWiki:SamKibGuy - Re add me, comrade, Why you have gone in long time?, I miss you so much.
 * I will, and a combination of schoolwork and mental health reasons was what caused my inactivity, in addition to realizing that some of my rhetoric went too far -

-Thoughts on your Proposed party: Overall: decent and a party i am willing to from a alliance with. All right what are your thoughts on mine. P.S what would be the name of your party
 * Main: Goo economics but too culturally right
 * Progressive caucus: see above
 * Liberty caucus: very based
 * Marxist caucus: too radical
 * I have yet to think of a name, and I would form an alliance with yours -


 * [[File:EpicConIcon.png]] NazBolGANG12 - Why are you pan-slavist if you don't live in russia? Also add me.
 * I am patriotic for both the US and Russia, and yes I’ll add you -


 * Why'd you remove me from relations plz re-add :)
 * I did? In which case apologies but I’ll readd -


 * Me's add again?
 * will do -

- Freude, schöner Götterfunken, Tochter aus Elysium, Wir betreten feuertrunken, Himmlische, dein Heiligtum! Deine Zauber binden wieder Was die Mode streng geteilt Alle Menschen werden Brüder Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.

Wem der große Wurf gelungen Eines Freundes Freund zu sein; Wer ein holdes Weib errungen Mische seinen Jubel ein! Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele Sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund! Und wer's nie gekonnt, der stehle Weinend sich aus diesem Bund!

Freude trinken alle Wesen An den Brüsten der Natur; Alle Guten, alle Bösen Folgen ihrer Rosenspur. Küsse gab sie uns und Reben, Einen Freund, geprüft im Tod; Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben und der Cherub steht vor Gott.

Froh, wie seine Sonnen fliegen Durch des Himmels prächt'gen Plan Laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn, Freudig, wie ein Held zum Siegen.

Seid umschlungen, Millionen! Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt! Brüder, über'm Sternenzelt Muß ein lieber Vater wohnen. Ihr stürzt nieder, Millionen? Ahnest du den Schöpfer, Welt? Such' ihn über'm Sternenzelt! Über Sternen muß er wohnen.


 * Unironically a great song -

'''Shitty views but that has already been explained elsewhere by other people and will continue to do so so Imma call out specifically the Cringe centrist stance towards Indigenism. The way I see it, You're either a based Cheif (native Chad) who scalps invaders and fights for their people's freedom and to take back their rightfully owned land again from those who unjustly stole it (or an active ally who stands for their liberation at all costs), or are those who openly SIMP to the colonial-state that wants to benefit from the steal of innocent peoples land and their genocide but wants to act like they aren't racist so they do a "both-sides", or a colonial LARP and genocide apologist who is just asking to get their head scalped.''' For the oppressed and colonized, not nationalism for those who stole everything from them and destroyed their ways of life.
 * wow great job conveniently ignoring the fact that I explicitly stated that I want to improve quality of life for natives and give them more self governance. In addition being patriotic for America doesn’t mean hating natives + you have to look at what was progressive for the time. Sure Jefferson’s views on natives were bad from a modern day viewpoint, but he didn’t see them as genetically inferior. You can’t just look at everything from a modern western progressive viewpoint, but rather from the scope of that time -
 * Yeah, Sorry, I never want to bring harm to others by needlessly hating on things as much as I tend to do so, but I can only stand so much and pro-American sentiment plus downplaying colonialism alongside native genocide is where I draw the line and the same applied to other imperialist nations. I don't CARE if genocide was accepted in his day, he was still not better if not worse than any other colonial force than that time especially towards slaves and natives.
 * I see, and admittedly I did hate on things needlessly back then. However if we are using your logic than everyone back then was reactionary. True solidarity is through reconstruction and solidarity (which is achieved through nationalism), not vengeance -
 * I agree, nationalism is a very decent tool for standing towards a better future...

They have absolutely no respect from me

Sorry! (Long version) It is easy for you as an outsider to think the natives should just stop resisting and unite under your vaguely progressive pro-american banner under the guise of "rebuilding", "reconciliation" and """""sovereignty""""" but the natives won't see it that way, and rightfully so. The ideas of westerners pretending to "reconcile" with the natives was something made by many modern political leaders, but unsurprisingly it was always on the colonizers terms, and never sought to really fix the real problems they face specifically the root cause and use the natives just to use their vague "support" for their own ends which is something those governments have been so used to by conservative and liberal governments for generations and who pretend as if their genocide and stealing of their land was "all in the past" and they should just "get over it" and become an "american" "patriot", while the Americans will continue to talk about "lest we forget" when it doesn't have to do with natives and instead deals with other white americans. You see, this is my point, my problem is that an outsider goes off saying (like a lot of other "progressives of the past) on why them wanting to be free from the colonial state that did and continue to do so many unspeakable tragedies to them is wrong and how they ACTUALLY need to be strong nationalists to the very nation that colonized and mass-genocided them and be proud of being "American" rather than putting their true identity above that nation which wants them to essentially assimilate to and that if they don't want to, it is out of "vengeance" for... Wanting to liberate their people? I am sorry, but I cannot stand for that, and I see it as another form of outsiders trying to enforce their imperialist apologia onto natives who quite frankly have had enough of it. I am sick of these "left-wing" American patriots who hide behind the reactionary ideals that founded the US. Sorry to burst your bubble, but America was never really great, and never will be as long as it exists. And as a person PROUD of their identity as an "outsider" that has long since been silenced for it and who knows the deep seated pain of having to bear the deep seated anguish of having lost everything from expansionist colonial states which took everything from you, your home, your culture, your history, your family, traditions, language, and everything you hold dear and which kept your community together. I will stand in solidarity with those TRULY PROUD of their identity and heritage as the TRUE owners of this land who have long since forgotten and spat on by most people and who continually tries to be destroyed by the very capitalist exploiters they have been fighting their entire history. They are my brothers and if it means dying by their side to fight expansionists like you, so be it.

Firstly, I have heard too much about the "self-determination" from so many vanguardists, white-liberal leftists, tankies, western anarkiddies patsocs etc. Yet many of them have went mask off numerous times on how they REALLY don't care much about their struggle and use them as at BEST a rhetorical justification for their own ideological platform speaks enough to me. I don't expect YOU to be much different when it is pretty clear your ideas of sovereignty and self-determination clearly will be far more in common with the already established view from the white colonial governments as opposed to the natives who want THEIR land back because it truly was never was your homeland and never will be and you putting the dead genocides in the past as something you put at the front of your ideology shows your true motives and what you will put over all else when it comes to it, dammed be the costs. So to me your idea of "sovereignty" is a lie. Secondly, When your going on about what is best for your "homeland" which you take so much "pride" in as a good idea for what would be best for everyone under your nation, a government which was directly founded off of the self-interested aristocrats who gladly was fine or at best complacent with literal slavery when they were talking about "all landowners men were created equal" and stole that idea from the natives themselves, and with its creation led to countless amounts of the shedding of blood of millions of innocent Indian men women and children who just wanted to live their lives free from exploitation and which extends to the same methodology we have now applied to the third world for their own benefit even overthrowing democratically elected governments even now, then to me I see your ideas as at best extremely misguided, which will fail to actually fix the real problems of post-colonial American Indian societies, and at worst (and likely considering history) will be akin to all the other "revolutionaries" of the past who critiqued imperialism of the old systems and when trying to rise to power said the LAST thing they wanted to do was harm their people, and yet inherited the same geo-political interests of the government it replaced and did just as bad or arguably worse depending on the situation and who you ask (ex. Russian revolution towards ethnic and cultural minorities) Thirdly: Your appeal to the colonial status-quo really irritates me, you CAN'T erase the past, but refusing to make ACTUAL justice and using the "its in the past and I say its unrealistic" is just another justification to keep the American state intact for your own justifications of American patriotism which places itself above natives regardless on whatever claims you make, (because at the end of the day, how will they really be free, they can only really do what they want in theory as long as it doesn't stand in anyway to oppose your system, in effect, they are free in only an extremely tokenistic sense) Regarding your arguments of "realism" I still think it is more realistic for people to take extreme measures to right the wrongs of the past which CAN'T be changed as a framework to make genuine change in the future rather than whatever highly niche ideology on a polcomp meme page you have, and that idea of "its unrealistic" being a justification in of itself will only and has only been seen as "unrealistic" because colonialists and the state WANT people to think that such a cause would never be possible, that the natives have given up the fight and that their free lives were the product a completely bygone era which we best forget and can only really "help" them in the context that they live under the state that colonized them in basically every way, to only given more "freedom" under the context of their obedience towards the system to where they become essentially puppets in all but name. This to me is the MAIN three though I could go all day and honestly I don't want to. Because I already am not very fond of expressing my voice everywhere writing giant essays about things most people don't really care about nor ever will and will only make me more of a black-sheep than I already am in this community.
 * 1; sorry to break it to you, but it is extremely and I mean EXTREMELY unrealistic for anything like Landback to occur. I proposed giving them higher autonomy for a reason, and native minorities in general are exempt from integration. Aspiring for a brighter future is the way to go. You’re right on how natives still face issues, but I wish to fix said issues. 2: that last part brings me to my next point, focus on ethnicity/tribe instead of nationality destroyed other countries in the past (ex: Yugoslavia and Rwanda), and without said historical progressive figures, we never would have progressed to today. And it’s hardly assimilation, they may still keep their cultures and traditions. You can’t change the past, but you can strive for a more prosperous figure. And if I’m a “false leftist”, how come I prioritize class issues over idpol? 3: I do feel sorry for the fact you’ve been silenced, and there’s a reason I support anti-colonial movements across Africa and Asia, I believe that they too are deserving of liberation. And I acknowledge that what happened was bad and oppose intervention and further expansion in general for a reason. You can’t change history, but you can love your homeland and want what’s best for it. For me, improving the quality of life for natives is an example of me wanting what’s best for my nation -
 * There is just too much I cannot say I am in any agreement over your points but I will try to make it as easily digestible as possible (pipedream as it may be...)


 * - remember how you said how it was a good decision for me to take a break to avoid intoxication via politics, now I'm bringing this recommendation to you as well, politics could really intoxicate you through surges of arrogance and vengeance.
 * I think you are making it seem like me getting upset over American imperialism and not standing for what I truly believe is right (actually making sure people are practice what they preach and stand against imperialism in all its forms) is something irrational and that what I am saying must mean I, therefore, must get off this site because something I said was either wrong or filled with vengeance and arrogance, yet you have openly downplayed and defended the dengist states use of genocide, perhaps I should get off this site but I will continue to stand with what I believe in. Maybe if you go so far to downplay the Dengist genocide then you should consider ALSO practicing what you preach when you tell such advice to a person genuine wanting to bring justice to those who have suffered the worst of crimes and have been ignored by the majority of humanity for far too long.
