Syndicalism

Syndicalism, shortened to Synd, is an economically left-wing, moderate libertarian and culturally varied, usually left-leaning ideology who is the son of  Socialism, and believes that unionization of the workforce, the establishment of local, decentralized revolutionary worker organizations called syndicates and advancements of worker's demands through the use of strikes and direct action is the best method by which a socialist society should be achieved.

History

[[File:Synd.png]] Syndicalism versus [[File:Councom.png]] Council Communism
These two ideologies may appear very similar of the bat, and they mostly are, but have a few key differences. First of all, council communism is scientific while syndicalism tends, not guaranteed, to be Utopian Socialism utopic, meaning that council communism believes in mass worker action and revolution is the only way to make real change while syndicalism believes that the ruling class can be peacefully convinced to go along with it. The second key difference is that syndicalism wants unions to own businesses while council communism wants worker elected councils/boards. This might seem small but in reality, it can be quite a huge difference, as in Council Communism all workers get to vote for the council while in  Syndicalism only unionized employees can vote.

Personality
Syndicalism is often portrayed as obsessive about unionization, significantly more than his father, and he can often be seen attempting to persuade other leftists to organize and/or join worker's strikes, being highly concerned with the rights and demands of the workers and extremely critical of business owners and their practices. Synd also loves the HOI4 mod Kaiserreich due to his presence as a major ideology both in-universe and in the game.

He is often Religious, but often still, socially progressive or "socially laissez-faire". However, this is not hard and fast, and many are culturally conservative too. This is exacerbated when he works in a culturally conservative area but of course the opposite is true when he works in a  cultually progressive area.

Symbols
Different syndicalist symbols can be used to represent Syndicalism.
 * 1) A crossed torch and hammer is used to represent Syndicalists in the fictional universe of Kaiserreich. While this symbol is easily recognizable online, it was not used in real life.
 * 2) A three-pointed red star was used by Republican factions in the Spanish Civil War.
 * 3) A black cat emblem is used by the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), a modern-day syndicalist organization.
 * 4) An emblem with Hercules was used by the CNT (Anarcho-Syndicalists) in the Spanish Civil War.
 * 5) A yoke and arrows emblem was used by National Syndicalists in Spain.
 * 6) A golden arm holding a hammer is used by [[File: Deleon.png]] De Leonism, a form of Marxist Syndicalism.

Drawing

 * 1) Draw a ball with eyes.
