Conservative Socialism

Conservative Socialism (ConSoc), is an economically left-wing, culturally right-wing, sometimes patriotic or nationalist ideology inhabiting the  left-half of the political compass. He supports a Socialist economy where the means of production are either directly owned by the workers or by a worker's state, in combination with support for  conservatism and traditional values. He believes a socialist society is the best way to maintain these values as Capitalism breeds degeneracy and that social communitarianism cannot exist without economic collectivism.

[[File:Left-wingCon.png]] Old Left
The term "Old Left" is used to refer to Western left-wing movements up to the 1960s, which focused on economic populism. However, most Western adherents nowadays are socially progressive, while opposing what they see as "wokeness" and generally avoiding culture war issues. Old Left parties and movements can often have more nationally-minded policies such as more restrictive immigration, or lean more socially-conservative on issues such as drug legalization and LGBT rights, or place less emphasis on such issues.

[[File:PostSoviet.png]] Post-Soviet Left [[File:Yugonostalgiaism.png]][[File:Ostalgie.png]]
Post-Soviet Left represents movements or individuals that are nostalgic for the Soviet Union (especially for the  Stalin and  Brezhnev eras),  Yugoslavia and  East Germany. They are almost always anti-American,  anti-NATO,  anti-LGBT and  anti-EU, because they deviate from "old soviet values". Soviet nostalgic views are a common sight within the Russian diaspora across the world, especially within Europe. When it comes to Soviet Nostalgists, many of them are against nationalism, preferring to speak Russian over the state language of the nation they reside in (if talking about Russians outside of Russia, due to USSR having Russian language as official) and demonizing anti-communist and nationalist groups such as  Forest Brothers,  Ukrainian Insurgent Army and  Solidarność. As such, most Soviet nostalgists are Russophile, and/or  pan-slavic. Unlike most MLs, Soviet nostalgists are mostly religious (usually  Orthodox Christian) due to shared cultural values and relatively soft stance on the church of Brezhnev-era USSR.

It should be noted that some Soviet Nostalgists, such as Lukashenko and  Yanukovych are not socialist, as they're much closer to  Social Authoritarianism economically but keep the aesthetics and cultural values, usually while being allied with actual socialists.

[[File:BlueLabour.png]] Blue Labour
Blue Labour is a faction inside of the Labour Party which promotes  conservative values on social issues. It is critical of the neoliberal economics the party had pursued under  Tony Blair, while being influenced by  Guild Socialism and  Corporatism. It has only had a small influence in the party, but some of it's ideas were adopted under the leadership of Ed Miliband, most notably their stance against immigration.

[[File:YanXishan.png]] Yan Xishan Thought
Throughout his life, Yan attempted to identify, formulate, and disseminate a comprehensive ideology that would improve the morale and loyalty of his officials and of the people of Shanxi. During his time of study in Japan, Yan became attracted to militarism and Social Darwinism, but he renounced them after World War I. Throughout the rest of his life, he identified with the position of most Chinese conservatives at the time: social and economic reform would progress from ethical reform, and the problems confronting China could be solved only by the moral rehabilitation of the Chinese people. Believing that no single ideology existed to unify the Chinese people when he came to power, Yan attempted to generate an ideal ideology himself, and once boasted that he had succeeded in creating a comprehensive system of belief that embodied the best features of "militarism, nationalism, anarchism, democracy, capitalism, communism, individualism, imperialism, universalism, paternalism and utopianism." Much of Yan's attempts to spread his ideology were through a network of semi-religious organizations, known as "Heart-Washing Societies."

Personality
ConSoc's personality is a combination of personality traits of other Socialist and  Conservative ideologies. He is dedicated to fighting for the liberation of the working class in the face of Capitalist oppression, however, he is conservative-minded and maintains a high respect for family values and traditional cultural institutions. He is happy to discuss the moral stagnation of society with his fellow conservatives, yet frequently gets into heated arguments as soon as economics is brought up. He is highly critical of modern, more progressive left-wing movements, which he views as "infested with RadLibs (Radical Liberals)" and a betrayal of the fight for working-class liberation. ConSoc can sometimes be depicted in a manner similar to stereotypes of older Russians and Eastern Europeans nostalgic for the socialist era. When depicted alongside Reactionary Socialism, ConSoc is presented as the more moderate, down-to-earth and level-headed of the two.

How to Draw
Consoc_flag.svg Drawing ConSoc is fairly simple:
 * 1) Draw a ball,
 * 2) Fill the ball with red
 * 3) Draw 3 white stars in the middle of the ball,
 * 4) Add the eyes and you're done!

Frenemies

 * [[File:Nazbol.png]] National Bolshevism - Kinda like a reactionary natcom, but way too racist and fascist, tone both down as low as you can, and you're good. Also Haz denies he is you and claims to his fans that the modern Nazbol movement in Russia is simply a liberal lumpen anarchist movement but he is an active supporter of Dugin and is his main inspiration and a radical Eurasianist who dog-whistles a lot to gain support from fascists.
 * [[File:Euras.png]] Fourth Theory - Like the above
 * [[File:Strasser.png]] Strasserism - Also too fashy.
 * [[File:ML.png]] Marxism–Leninism - Tone the cultural leftism down a bit and then you're fine. Plus, most of your modern followers are cringe degenerates like furries who can’t even identify their gender and admit that there are only two genders. I am still a nostalgist of the USSR though and I hope Russia can return its former territories.
 * [[File:Hcon.png]] LGBT Conservatism - You may be gay but at least you know the importance to maintaining tradition and cultural values and you hate SJWs. However, the capitalist and libertarian variants of you are mega cringe.
 * [[File:Blacknat.png]] Black Nationalism - MLK Jr. called for racial unity, not separation!
 * [[File:Liberalsoc.png]] Liberal Socialism - Libta*d, but socialist. The only good take you have is your economics.
 * [[File:WelfChauvin.png]] Welfare Chauvinism - You're too moderate economically, and too radical culturally.
 * [[File:Dsa.png]] Democratic Socialism - Good economic takes, cringe progressiveness.
 * [[File:Socdem.png]] Social Democracy - Collectivism needs social conservatism damn it. You're almost [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] neolib with some more welfare.
 * [[File:Conserv.png]] Conservatism [[File:Con-t.png]] - You're trying to fight degeneracy while upholding an economic system that breeds degeneracy, you absolute buffoon!
 * [[File:Libcon.png]] Libertarian Conservatism - You have good conservative ideas but how do you expect to uphold such ideas with minimal state and a free market?
 * [[File:Libsoc.png]] Libertarian Socialism - Good economic takes but you're going to need a state to enforce these ideas. Good thing you're not as utopian as [[File:Ancom.png]] AnCom though.
 * [[File:Korwinism-Pikselart.png]] Korwinism - Yes, I am a conservative, we're socially almost an ideological match, but unfortunately you uphold the wrong economic system, which promotes the very things you're fighting against. We both hate the EU and prefer China over the EU, albeit for different reasons. Social views are pretty based, though, and so is the idea of a monarch.
 * [[File:Reactsoc.png]] Reactionary Socialism - Traditionalism and monarchy are based, but that's taking it quite a bit too far. Still a cool guy, though, and the way you trigger [[File:Pinkcap.png]] Pink Capitalism and [[File:Statlib.png]] State Liberalism is epic.
 * [[File:Neosoc.png]] Neosocialism - Has some pretty based ideas, but calm down with the antisemitism.
 * [[File:Juche.png]] Juche - Woah buddy... Let's take a chill pill, alright? Other than that, best buddies.
 * [[File:Yellsoc.png]] Yellow Socialism - Socially conservative and calls himself a socialist. But is he really one?
 * [[File:Mao.png]] Maoism - I like that you sent degenerates to prison and your economics, but they were the only based things you ever did. Why the f*ck did you do the abhorrent cultural revolution?! I might not agree with Deng and Xi on economic issues that much, but they are absolutely right to get rid of them cultural revolution nonsense.
 * [[File:Dengf.png]] Dengism - Would be based if it was actually socialist. Xi Jinping is kinda based, but I suspect he is going full nazbol, or worse, blueshirtist. At least we both like Plombir (he calls it Bing Chilling). Xi is based for reviving Chinese traditions, though. (Although Jiang is cringe for decriminalizing sodomies)
 * [[File:Marxfem.png]] Marxist Feminism - Good economic takes, but why are you so progressive and hate the family units?
 * [[File:Confem.png]] Conservative Feminism - One of the better feminists, but most of your proponents are capitalist!
 * [[File:Trumpism.png]] Trumpism - Your social views and the way you piss off libtards is very based, but unfortunately you're still a capitalist pig who supports free-market economics. Also, stop conflating socialists with liberals.
 * [[File:Plcn2.png]] Paleoconservatism - Tucker is kinda based. However, all of your other supporters are greedy capitalists and liberal sympathizers!
 * [[File:Native.png]] Indigenism - You care about protecting your peoples traditions from outsiders and hate mega companies, but on the other hand, your traditions were always kinda progressive cringe, LGBT+ Rights and near gender equality? Kinda too progressive for me buddy.
 * [[File:Ormarxf.png]] Marxism - I would like you a lot, just stop calling me a bourgeois socialist! Your economic views are kinda based but your cultural views are mega cringe.
 * [[File:Baath.png]] Ba'athism - Galloway likes you, but you are too modernist and closer to State Capitalism rather than real socialism.
 * [[File:Anpostleft.png]] Post-Left Anarchism - We agree that everyone we don't like is an idpol-obsessed radlib, shame you're a lazy anarchist degenerate.
 * [[File:Stalin.png]] Stalinism - Gorky and Zyuganov like you, and I like how you banned degenerates and abortions and restricted divorce. But what you did with the church and Russian traditions was absolutely uncool, man. Still better than Lenin though, at least you kinda stopped the crackdown on the church later in your life. But still not good culturally. Although I’d be nostalgic for you and Brezhnev to support the reclamation of our glorious USSR.
 * [[File:Authoritarian Conservatism.png]] Authoritarian Conservatism - Some of your variants, like the Chinese and Russian ones, are kinda based. Your more economically liberal variants, however, can be a bit cringe at times.
 * [[File:Castro.png]] Castroism - You had a weird phase during the revolution but even so you're still my friend. Though why did you recently abolish the traditional family?
