Ideological Evolution
->  ->  ->      ->    ->     ->

Stage 1: Neocon
I was brainwashed by western media and the notion that American intervention was a force of good, supported neo-classical economics, liberal hawk, oh and I was big on Reagan, Israel, and Pinochet. Oh and I unironically thought that PragerU was a good source. If you think this is the best/least bad stage of mine in any way whatsoever, please stfu.

Phase 2: National Liberal
I was wondering why America was so hated, since I loved my nation and wanted it to be loved as well. I then became more open to the reality of NATO and their crimes. I couldn’t bear some of the things I saw. I thought we were a force of justice. I felt I was lied to. I later embraced non-interventionism. I stopped supporting Pinochet. But this stage was still pretty bad. Neoclassical economics, still saw NATO as a lesser evil despite turning more against them, and supported countries like Israel and South Korea. But ultimately at least I was able to escape the cringe that was being a liberal hawk. Socially speaking I was conservative leaning, but with some progressive takes, mainly on LGBT and immigration. But I did base a lot of my ideals on SJW cringe compilations. That too was cringe

Phase 3: Moving Away From Neoclassical Economics
In a sense, this set a framework for my shift to the left. I was looking at Europe and was inspired by them, and how they built such prosperous countries. But I was still very much anti-EU and skeptical of all forms of leftism. Same social views as above

Stage 4: SocDem
I did call myself a “DemSoc” and did somewhat support worker self management but wasn’t very educated on that part either, though saw the concept was cool, but mostly I wanted social policies that benefitted the working class, wanted free healthcare and education, socialization of big businesses and major industries, trust busting, opposed billionaires, typical socdem things although somewhat masquerading as a socialist. But I still liked some socialists, mainly Tito, Kadar, Ho Chi Minh, and (somewhat) Castro (but supported the Cuban protests of 2021 as well although with some suspicion involving America’s role). Socially speaking I was center-progressive (pro-LGBT (but skeptical of some things), near-Laicist, supported eased legal immigration, but still had some conservative views, saw that some traditions are important, and was pro-life). I was skeptical of more radical progressive movements (but saw them as rightist psyops as well). And foreign policy speaking I was a nationalist and non-interventionist

Stage 5: “Old Left”
Honestly this one was rather cancerous, mainly the severe misusage of the term.

Basically after dealing with leftist idpol, I did start becoming more conservative in response to that. It was alright at first but it started to become pretty bad, and the breaking point was this next stage:

Phase 6: Abandoning Socialism
This phase was just outright awful. I was brainwashed by a certain fascist whom I will not name, and shittier experiences with liberal/progressive users made me an easier target for said radicalization. If not for a few irl factors things could have gone much, much worse. Needless to say, I’m glad I escaped this stage and this is a reminder to never abandon your socialist pride.

Phase 7: Return to Socialism
I felt awful on a personal level around the end of the previous stage, I couldn’t handle it, said feelings had a ton of unrelated factors, but feeling ashamed of betraying my own values was one of the factors. I have returned to socialism at last. Now you’d think this is a full circle ending, being a left-nationalist democratic socialist. But there are some differences. One is me being slightly more conservative, another is me favoring revolution over reform, yet another one is me being a genuine democratic socialist instead of a  social democrat pretending to be a demsoc. And lastly and most importantly, I began reading theory. I believe I’ll permanently settle here

Ideological Beliefs of People I Know
Father - /

He is pretty fiscally conservative, and socially speaking he is moderate, supporting things like LGBT rights and abortion rights, while being critical of more modern progressive movements, especially their support for Islam, which he opposes. Foreign policy wise, he is non-interventionist but still sympathetic to NATO, especially after the War in Ukraine started.

Mother - /

She has fairly similar beliefs to the one above, but does give in to the whole “cultural Marxism” thing and is further culturally right on some issues. She does support Trump, but doesn’t care about some of his social views, mainly on abortion or religion, and dislikes his climate change denial

Positive
Anti-Capitalism - capitalism is an economic system based on greed, exploitation, and repressing the workers

Anti-Social Democracy - you hate socdem because it’s “leftist”, I hate it because it’s capitalist, we are not the same.

Anti-Neoliberalism - Neoliberalism is an imperialist, globalist, and capitalist ideology

Anti-Austerity - all fiscal conservatives conserve is greed and the rich.

Anti-Libertarianism - libertarians explaining how unrestrained corporate greed makes things cheaper:

Anti-Racism - all races are created equal

Anti-Sexism - both sexes are equal too

Anti-Xenophobia - nobody should be treated differently for their race, ethnicity, or culture, even if for the latter they should learn ours through cross cultural communication. Likewise a nation is based off of common customs or values, not ethnicity or race

Anti-Colonialism - colonialism is an oppressive system

Anti-Interventionism - what other countries do is not our business

Anti-Porn - Pornography and prostitution are in no way empowering. They are a moral and societal evil, and the sex industry is exploitative

Anti-Atlanticism - the west and NATO as a geopolitical entity has destroyed so many countries. As much as I dislike the two powers, Russia and China have been less destructive abroad, and there’s a reason why third world countries are turning towards the two

Euroscepticism - I’m not against the fundamental idea of the EU, but everything about it’s current state, from the ever increasing centralization, to the liberalism (both social and economic), to meddling in the affairs of other countries (ex: Poland, Hungary, and Belarus, even if I don’t particularly like them), and basically being an extension of NATO. Kill it with fire

Anti-Individualism - I don’t believe in this “permissively” and “live and let live” nonsense for the most part, and believe in a heavily family and community based society, even if I’m also against mass collectivism

Anti-Globalism - globalism is imperialism with a friendly face. I love my nation and will do anything to improve it for the better. Deal with it.

Anti-Idpol - whether it’s intersectional idpol or supremacist idpol, it has been disastrous and is a form of tribalism.

Left-Wing Anti-Communism - Marxism-Leninism is one of the things that make leftism look bad. But cool it with the succdem tendencies

Anti-Zionism - Israel is a false ally of ours

Anti-Reformism - reformism is a failed system which corrupts one, and serves to serve the establishment. It’s clear that revolution is the only way

Trust-Busting - billionaires and megacorp shouldn’t even exist. I support a small business based economy

Anti-Fascism - fascism is tyranny and injustice in one ideology. However, Antifa is cringg

Anti-Dengism - China is a state capitalist country which is also becoming more authoritarian than necessary, even if a strong hand is needed to control a nation of 1.4 billion people. “Um ackshually those are the people’s Amazon warehouses, the people’s billionaires, the people’s landlords” 🤓🤓🤓, Dengists are just neoliberals who hate the west.

Anti-Stalinism - Stalin was another state capitalist. Workers still toiled in wage labor, and formerly private assets didn’t go in the hands of the workers, but became state owned (some things should be nationalized but still), and the workers were denied the full fruit of their labor, but instead of the employer, it was the state. Even the achievements came with deep consequences.

Anti-Putinism - Crimea is Russia, but Putin is still a corrupt imperialist rightoid. Idk why some leftists support him

Neutral
Anti-Conservatism - while I acknowledge that some traditions are detrimental, the beneficial ones must be kept

Anti-Progressivism - I hate the whole “woke” stereotype as shown on the PCB interpretation, and believe that some traditions are important, but progress is still needed and some traditions are detrimental

Anti-Easternism - I oppose the governments of Russia and China, and believe that they too are imperialistic (nowhere near the level of the west but still), but the amount of you that tend to be Atlanticists is concerning at best and outright disgusting at worst

Anti-Communism - Marxism-Leninism and State Socialism are cringe, but a lot of you tend to be capitalists as well. Besides, people like Stalin are state capitalists, when will you realize this?

Anti-Monarchism - monarchism is generally cringe but if some countries want to keep it due to it being tradition, they can

Anti-Abortion - I’m you on a moral level, and think that advertisement, as well as 2nd and 3rd trimester abortions should be illegal, but I also fear underground/out of state abortions if you’re implemented without significant pro-family programs

Anti-Isolationism - while I oppose getting involved in most world affairs and oppose defense/military alliances and want to put my nation first, full blown isolationism is bad

Anti-Americanism - the government is shit, yes. But I love my nation and will do whatever it takes to improve it

Negative
Anti-Socialism - while socialism may not be perfect, and planned economies are cringe, it is the best system to defend workers rights

Anti-Nationalism - the nation defines who you are as people and creates a sense of unity and bonds amongst people. It’s natural to love your nation and culture

Anti-Authoritarianism - I’ll tread where I please. In all seriousness though, while I understand some of your concerns, some dictators are good and less auth doesn’t mean less bad

Anti-Revisionism - some revisionists like Khrushchev, Deng, and Gorbachev were bad, but hardline ML is almost as cancerous and ruined the name of socialism

Anti-Third Worldism - the third world should be able to prosper without either superpower budging into their business, even if they could learn some forms of western values while also staying strong to their own

Anti-Environmentalism - the environment is important and must be protected

Anti-LGBT - I hate pride parades, flamboyance, and the LGBT movement, but hating on ordinary LGBT people is cringe, they too are human and deserve respect

Economic

2: Representatives become isolated from the wants and needs from the people, and as such, are overall bad. However there should be polls and referendums on some issues that can be held on any level (+1)

 * I’m a centrist on such matter (+0.5)

Foreign
1: I am neutral on bloc politics and see both NATO and Russia/China as bad (but if you’re ever so slightly leaning towards the east but still oppose them, you can still get one point) (+1)


 * I’m against both blocs, but the west is ever so slightly a lesser evil, but they’re still bad/I’m critical but supportive of the east (+0.5)


 * I uncritically support the east/I support the west, critically or not (0)

2: what other countries do is not our business, and we should only intervene if we were attacked first or if there is a large scale genocide. If journalists and activists are suppressed half way across the world, not our problem. (+1)

Quadrants
Left Unity - my quadrant, and would align with most ideologies within said quadrant

Authoritarian Left - generally willing to align with many ideologies in this quadrant, but there are still    undesirable ideologies

LibLeft - despite leaning authleft, I actually am more willing to align with libleft ideologies. However, they can’t give into intersectional idpol or the culture war generally speaking

AuthCenter - I might align with some ideologies such as Social Authoritarianism (it depends really), but the sheer amount of fascists is just, ugh…

Center - maybe in some rare cases, but usually no

LibCenter - better than regular centrism tbh, but still insufficient. Would align in some cases though

Authoritarian Right - I would almost never align with the authright quadrant, and authcaps are pure cringe

Right Unity - I would almost never align with this quadrant either, too economically right and infested with interventionists.

Libertarian Right - we like free speech, gun rights, non-interventionism, and decentralization, but I wouldn't align with this quadrant other than that, but tbh I’d rather libright than right unity or authright

User Relations

 * -| Ideology=

Based (80-100)
(//) (100/100)- very similar beliefs to myself

(//) (98/100) - same as above but doesn’t fully embrace guilds

IvarsBalodis (//) (95/100) - also a very close ideological match

GhostlySpear1 (//) (95/100) - me but Islamic

Glencoe(// ) (80/100) - based although more libertarian and friendly to welfare capitalists than myself, but overall it’s something I can get by

(//) (80/100) - a more moderate version of myself, overall based

Kinda Based (60-79)
Duy (// (75/100) - based, but too liberal, reformist, and friendly to welfare capitalists

Apple (//) (70/100) - more moderate than myself but otherwise based

CarbynSobek (//) (70/100) - based for a ML

Neutral (40-59)
Sykar (//) (50/100) - culturally speaking you’re based even with a few disagreements and your economic model is good although a little moderate. But stop being interventionist and reformist. Barely escapes being cringish

Kinda Cringe (20-39)
Shrek (//) (21/100) - Hoxhaism and hardline ML is cringe

(//) (21/100) - same as above

(//) (32/100) - too liberal and pro-west (albeit at least not to the extent of before), and not left enough on economics. But has a few good points, though overall cringe

Nekoqing (//) (21/100) - ok yeah your ideology has degraded beyond any repair, becoming full Stalinite and supporting social imperialism as long as it was committed by Stalin. The rest of your ideology does not make up for the hardliner simping, statesoc economics, and civic views.

CynicalLibra (//) (30/100) - too far left and auth, and I don’t really buy this whole revprog thing, and Maoism is cringe, but you’re still fairly based for such and we both support revolution. But it’s possible you might pull a BPP and be one of the only good Maoists.

(//) - you have based policies such as nationalism, federalism, and Euroscepticism. Your social policies are also good albeit more conservative. But capitalism ruins everything

Positive
Guild Socialism, Left-Wing Populism,  Left-Wing Nationalism, and  Eco-Socialism - my ideologies

Market Socialism - based but a lot of you are socdems.

Social Distributism - a good alternative to guildsoc if needed. Pro-coop, pro-small business, and small scale property ownership are all based

Progressive Conservatism - my social views

Federalism - my stance on government.

Positive Leaning
Libertarian Market Socialism - good but too libertarian

Social Authoritarianism - too authright, but you have based figures and actually get things done unlike socdem. Would incorporate some elements from this depending on the situation

Social Georgism - some of you are based and I support LVT, but a lot of you tend to be them.

Neutral
Classical Liberalism - was good for the time, but should stay in the past.

Liberal Socialism - it depends

Keynesianism - a mixed market economy is based but that’s it.

Negative Leaning
Nordic Model - can I commend you for being better than a lot of western countries? Yes. Does that change the fact that you’re capitalist, liberal, and often atlanticist? No.

Negative
Capitalism - greed, exploitation, unjust hierarchy. That’s all that needs said.

Marxism-Leninism - while you have some sporadic based moments you’re overall cringe and an overbureaucratic system who betrays other leftists

Wip

North America
American Solidarity Party - my only complaint is that you are a bit too moderate economically, otherwise you’re everything I like.

New Democratic Party Factions: - the party overall is cringe, but there is one good faction
 * [[File:Demsocstar.png]] New Democratic Party Socialist Caucus - the only based political faction in Canada. Hopefully you take power one day

Morena - Cardenismo, leftpop/leftnat, and non-interventionist? Based

Zapatista Army of National Liberation - I gained several inspirations from you, and also based fighting for indigenous rights and against neoliberals

Communist Party of Cuba - for all it’s faults, it improved Cuba. Keep resisting US imperialism! Viva Cuba!

People’s United Party based on your ideology, you seem decent although too economically moderate and religious for my likings

National Unity of Hope - the president from that party, Alvaro Colom, improved living conditions in Guatemala

Liberty and Refoundation - Manuel Zelaya improved Honduras

Sandinista Renovation Movement - the FSLN is good but Ortega ruined it. Left-wing nationalism is also based. You’re a bit too economically moderate though

Sandinista National Liberation Front (kinda) - based socialism, left nationalism, left populism, and anti-imperialism. I admire Augusto C. Sandino, like Nicaragua’s cooperative system, and Christian Socialism is an ideology I can get by. However, Ortega is a brute and should be removed. Remove him and you’ll be 100% positive

Democratic Revolutionary Party - improved Panama

South America
United Socialist Party of Venezuela (somewhat) - under Chavez, you were good but flaws, even if sanctions play just as much if not a bigger role for a poor economy, but Maduro is retarded and should be ousted from within

Colombia Humana - I have faith in you, please, defeat the rightoids in Colombia. Update: LETS GOOOOOO YOU WON

Citizen Revolution Movement - your ideology is very similar to mine and Rafael Correa was based.

Peru Libre - based socialism, nationalism, and pro-indigenous.

Movement for Socialism - greatly improved Bolivia, though removing term limits was a dick move on Evo’s part.

Guasu Front - for the one term this party was in power, it helped the poor of Paraguay and made housing and healthcare more accessible. Hopefully you end the Colorado Party’s monopoly over Paraguayan politics one day

Worker’s Party - corruption is an issue, but overall not bad and certainly preferable to Bolsonaro.

Broad Front - it did great service for Uruguay while in power, and the variety of different types of democratic leftists within this party is also something I’d do in one led by myself

Frente de Todos - same as the Worker’s Party, has a corruption problem, but overall based

Social Convergence (somewhat) - tbh I’m rather disappointed but still have hopes for you regarding environmentalism and economics, and you’re better than everyone else

Europe
Sadly a lot of European parties are either MLs, RightPops, Atlantards, or shitlibs, so don’t expect much here

Sinn Fein - too cuddly towards the EU, but this is still an overall based party, with it’s democracy, socialism, and Irish nationalism

Labour Factions - Labour overall is cringe, however not all of it is:


 * [[File:Corbynism-ball.png]] [[File:Demsocstar.png]] Hard Left - you’re the only saving grace of Labour and Britain as a whole, as you’re genuinely leftist, unlike the rest of Labour whom are closeted neolibs. But reformism won’t get you anywhere


 * [[File:Guildsoc.png]] Blue Labour - another based faction of Labour, I wish you were more popular, but still overall a force of good in Britain.

La France Insoumise - you have pretty good economic policies, and also have based ideas involving wanting to leave NATO, a pacifist foreign policy, and opposing the neoliberalism of the EU. What else can I say but gigachad?

Die Linke Factions - not big on this party as a whole but there is one faction that I like:


 * [[File:Wagenknecht.png]] Aufstehen - you have based ideas of democratic socialism, social policies, and anti-militarism and anti-NATO. A bit too Russophilic, otherwise based.

Asia and the Pacific
Japanese Communist Party - further left than myself, but still overall based. But become revolutionary

Progressive Party - same as above

People’s Action Party - one of the few capitalists I can respect

PDI-P - Pancasila and left nationalism is based, and Jokowi is a good president for the most part

Democratic Labor Party - too economically moderate and I hate how you tend to have your voters choose Liberal as a 2nd option, but overall not bad

Communist Party of India - you did good in Kerala and honestly speaking the INC is corrupt as hell so why should I support them?

People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran - you’d do great for Iran, with your ideology of socialism and secularism

Syrian Arab Baath Party (somewhat) - based, but cool it with the corruption and pro-Putin sentiment (although the latter is kinda understandable)

Democratic Socialist Arab Ba'ath Party - the above but better

Democratic Union Party  - based ideology and I support Rojava and Kurdish independence. But rn is not a time to be this decentralized

Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaks) - become non aligned, and limit Greater Armenia to Armenia + Artsakh, but otherwise based market socialism and left nationalism
