Comments

 * [[File:Redone RolandsSilvers.png]]RolandsSilvers - I've made a change in decision. A permanent one. I have decided not to implement a comment section even after I'm satisfied with the detail on my UserWiki. It's nothing personal, it's just that I'm a little sensitive, that's all.

Custom Icons

 * [[File:Redone RolandsSilvers.png]]RolandsSilvers - I'll try to design and add as many of my own ones for whenever I find that they are aesthetically beneficial. If you may have noticed, I didn't make any custom icons for figures like Pim Tool and Paul Joseph Watson; and just in case you're wondering why, well... I won't call them traitors to society, because they would not consider themselves to be traitors to society, but I will call them wrong. They are wrong and do not deserve custom icons made by anyone, in my opinion.

Political Influences

 * [[File:Redone RolandsSilvers.png]]RolandsSilvers - There were actually even more influences, but I didn't include them because I either remember them being too [[File:Prog-u.png]]disinteresting or too [[File:Corptism.png]]vague.

User Relations

 * [[File:Redone RolandsSilvers.png]]RolandsSilvers - I do have opinions about most of the users on the PolCompBall Wiki, but I won't mention them. I refuse.

[[File:Totalitarian.png]]Authority and Liberty[[File:Awaj.png]]
While Rolands does believe that authority can make sense on a superficial level, he also simultaneously believes that in practice, it ends up being antithetical to what he considers the most important; natural law. In other words, the belief that humans always crave liberty by nature, even when it doesn't necessarily succeed.


 * [[File:Redone RolandsSilvers.png]]RolandsSilvers - I believe that even if authority proves to be able to provide some stability, it will never last. Even if a state tries to adapt with the times as best as it can, it just won't be enough to escape the inevitable. You see, the truth is that ANY system, whether it be [[File:Sec.png]]Authoritarian[[File:Authunity.png]] or [[File:Liberty.png]]Libertarian[[File:Libunity-yellow.png]], [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalist[[File:Lfree.png]] or [[File:Soc.png]]Socialist[[File:Soc-h.png]], can only exist as a whole. The idea of trying to introduce new elements to that same system can only lead to its collapse. So no matter what, even with a few forks in the road, it will always lead to an [[File:Awaj.png]]Anarchist[[File:Anarchism,_You_Are_Not.png]] ideology.

[[File:Cap.png]]Economics[[File:Soc.png]]
Rolands views economic systems like Capitalism and Socialism from a relatively typical Left-Wing perspective; the most common belief being that the latter is ultimately better than the former. Though being proud of his more Egalitarian beliefs, Rolands still believes that Capitalism still holds one very valuable, albeit flawed asset. Markets. Despite still remaining firm in his hatred towards the system, Rolands still believes that Markets are the one singlehandedly decent thing that Capitalism has to offer. By comparison, he also believes that while Socialism is a good economic, it never had the chance to compete with Capitalism because of a lack of Markets, as well as other external reasons. Consequentially, in the name of pragmatism, Rolands has advocated for Market Socialism, a system he believes could potentially appeal to more ideologically Left-Wing Social Democrats or Left-Wing Populists. While harking on Yugoslavia as an example of the system working, he also believes that Market Socialism is the best synthesis of Socialism and Capitalism possible, and that it is simultaneously the best possible economic system that people can achieve today. However, Rolands submits that Market Socialism is only a temporary solution, as only a stage of what he describes as "the long road to Communism".


 * [[File:Redone RolandsSilvers.png]]RolandsSilvers - Okay, so... Just to make things a bit more clear, I'll explain. If we lived in a better world, I could guarantee that we would make the switch to [[File:Commie.png]]Communism in a heartbeat. But unfortunately, we don't live in a better world, so [[File:Marketsoc.png]]Market Socialism is going to have to do for the meantime. I really do wonder though... Do [[File:Cap.png]]Cappies honestly expect [[File:Soc.png]]Socialism to fail every time... while simultaneously keeping [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalism as the only widespread form of economics until the end of time? I shouldn't think so, since whether anyone likes it or not, change is inevitable. I mean, come on. Deep down, they must believe that regime change is gonna come for everyone at one point or another. I know that some [[File:Lib.png]]Liberals believe that [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalism is a sort of "necessary evil" of sorts, in the belief that the world is too imperfect by nature for any other system or something... Well, I can see how that can make sense on a superficial level, but that's just not correct at all. I mean, sure, life is cruel, violent, and depressing, but that doesn't mean there's no hope of humanity achieving something better. Change IS nature, after all. People shouldn't be afraid to stand up for what's right just because it seems impossible. I just think that... The more you try, the more that you're convinced otherwise.

Impressionable

 * [[File:Adam Something.png]]Adam Something - He might've come from a relatively well-off family, and his demeanor may be a bit more outspoken, but at the end of the day, a realist is nothing to be scoffed at.


 * [[File:BritMonkey.png]] - Comparable to [[File:Adam Something.png]]Adam Something, yet in some ways, I'd argue that [[File:BritMonkey.png]]BritMonkey is even better. To me, his content is more fun, dynamic, entertaining, and sometimes even more thought-provoking.


 * [[File:History Scope.png]]History Scope - Yes, he counts. A little too moderate for my liking, but hey, he got me curious about [[File:Marketsoc.png]]you.


 * [[File:Renegade Cut.png]]Renegade Cut - My main influence. Even though his content isn't the most stimulating, he honestly seems like a great guy, and he made my politics into what they are today.

Not So Impressionable

 * [[File:J.J. McCullough.png]]J.J. McCullough - He's a pretty mixed bag to me. I like how he always seems to maintain an easy-going and relatively carefree attitude, but... That also leads to his own opinions being quite boring.


 * [[File:José.png]]José - A producer of your average [[File:Leftunity.png]]Leftie content. An alright guy by all accounts.


 * [[File:Thought Slime.png]]Thought Slime - Don't put yourself down, Mildred. Sure, you may not be qualified, but at least you have the right sentiment. Sometimes you'll even say something that resonates. Heck, sometimes you'll even say something that's humorous... To me, at least.


 * [[File:Vaush.png]]Vaush - I don't watch his content. It's just not for me. He seems like a normal guy, but is there something I'm missing here?

Shouldn't Be Impressionable

 * [[File:Tradcon.png]]Paul Joseph Watson - Comically wrong in so many of his videos and painfully unlikable.


 * [[File:Trumptard.png]]Pim Tool - Calling Tim Pool "Pim Tool" does seem to bother him, so that's the name I'm gonna stick with for him. He's a typical [[File:Trumpism.png]]Trump sycophant who just tries to mislead as many people as he can.

My Political Test Results

 * -| Ideology =

Neo-Mutualism is an Anarchist, Economically Left (but pro-market), and Culturally Progressive ideology that is, by design, an initial synthesis based on the ideas of classical Mutualism and Anarcho-Syndicalism. It encompasses most of Rolands's own political beliefs, but it also contains ideas espoused by Rolands designed to "appeal to the masses". For pragmatic purposes, of course.

Neo-Mutualism believes that to successfully transition to any Anarchist ideology, incremental reform has to be put aside as an option, on the basis that it wouldn't be workable. Instead preferring to persuade as many workers as possible to rebel through tactics like organized boycotts, wildcat strikes, and online hacktivism.

If successfully reaching political power, Neo-Mutualism seeks to abolish things like Capitalism, the State, and Bureaucracy, while simultaneously implementing things like regulated Market Socialism, a society oriented around worker-controlled organizations, and Direct Democracy.

 * [[File:Anarchristian.png]]Christian Anarchism - You get me!

 * [[File:Falgsc.png]]FALGSC - ...


 * [[File:Greensynd.png]]Green Syndicalism - I'd have you as my personal status-quo any day.


 * [[File:Impossible.png]]Impossibilism - You're right. Even in a [[File:Postnlib.png]]Post-Neoliberal world, they will continue to make sure that getting elected will be impossible.


 * [[File:Libmarx.png]]Libertarian Marxism - [[File:Ormarxf.png]]Marx when he was older and wiser. An ideology truly ahead of its time.

B Tier

 * [[File:Awaj.png]]Anarchism - I'm not even gonna question how we're related, but I still don't mind your company.


 * [[File:Anin.png]]Anarcho-Individualism - We must take care of the [[File:Indiv.png]]individual, and if we do so, the [[File:Col.png]]collective will take care of itself.


 * [[File:Thar.png]]Anti-Authoritarianism - Always a pleasant partner, even if he doesn't exactly have any loyalties.


 * [[File:Christsoc.png]]Christian Socialism - Now this is more like it.


 * [[File:Classiccom.png]]Classical Communism - Originally, some of Marx's own personal opinions were pretty short-sighted, but some of his early ideas still hold value.


 * [[File:Menshevik.png]]Democratic Socialism - Too moderate, but still much more preferable than [[File:ML.png]]him.


 * [[File:Distributist.png]]Distributism - Based economics, but again, I don't think Jesus would've necessarily approved of a government, let alone a state.


 * [[File:Ecosoc.png]]Eco-Socialism - Two based concepts coming together! What else can I say but doubleplusbased?


 * [[File:Eurocom.png]]Eurocommunism - You're going in a good direction, but a liberated [[File:Cball-EU.png]]Europe still requires that [[File:Awaj.png]]little bit more...


 * [[File:Leftpop-0.png]]Left-Wing Populism - They don't exactly stand strong on their own, but they can be great in promoting the ideas like that of my own.


 * [[File:Liberalsoc.png]]Liberal Socialism - Your takes can still be interesting, to say the least, but I'd happily have you as my status quo any day.


 * [[File:Makhaevism.png]]Machajskism - You need to learn that intellectuals don't just come from the [[File:Rightunity-yellow.png]]Right.


 * [[File:Anmark2.png]]Market Anarchism - You're alright, but uhh... [[File:Austrobert.png]]Austrian-School Economics? Markets don't regulate themselves, no matter what system they're under.


 * [[File:Ricardosoc.png]]Ricardian Socialism - It sounds great, but labor is not the source of all value. [[File:YouTube.png]]YouTube is living proof of that.


 * [[File:Synd.png]]Syndicalism - No-one works harder than the working class itself, and you respect that.


 * [[File:Synthesisanarchy.png]]Synthesis Anarchism - Pragmatism has always been hard to achieve, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't keep trying.


 * [[File:Technocracy.png]]Technocracy - Bringing in people of expertise is great and all, but that doesn't mean we can't be democratic at the same time...

C Tier

 * [[File:Annil.png]]Anarcho-Nihilism - Come on, there's meaning to everything! Ugh... Who even cares? We're all gonna die anyway...


 * [[File:Antifa.png]]Anti-Fascism - Good conceptually, but you guys have really shot yourselves in the foot.


 * [[File:Apolit.png]]Apoliticism - I'm sorry, but you really don't have a choice. None of us do.


 * [[File:Bernst.png]]Bernsteinism - You're sweet, really, but how do you reform something that is fiercely resistant to reform by design?


 * [[File:Capcom.png]]Capitalist Communism - The very representation of a C Tier ideology. Take that, Jreg.


 * [[File:Communalist.png]]Communalism - I appreciate the enthusiasm, but Christ... Not even any personal property? Sharing your toothbrush is just unhygienic, buddy.


 * [[File:Consocf.png]]Conservative Socialism - You're crossing the line a little here, but you're still preferable to [[File:Pinkcap.png]]Pink Capitalism.


 * [[File:Ego.png]]Egoism - Stereotypical Anarchism at its best... But you have to admit, that's still not saying much. I'd imagine that you are what the actual end result of [[File:Posadist.png]]Posadism may be.


 * [[File:Insarch.png]]Insurrectionary Anarchism - You're just making us look bad, you know that, right?


 * [[File:LeftCom.png]]Left Communism - Uhh, what? Do you even know what you're talking about?


 * [[File:Leftnat.png]]Left-Wing Nationalism - Sharing love with [[File:World.png]]fellow nations is also part of what it means to be a [[File:Soc.png]]Socialist. That's what you want to be, right?


 * [[File:Progconf.png]]Progressive Conservatism - Why are you so concerned about [[File:Trad.png]]preserving culture? Don't be! We'll not only preserve it, but we'll make it [[File:Prgess.png]]even better!


 * [[File:Republicanismpix.png]]Republicanism - A tad outdated, but a source of inspiration nonetheless...


 * [[File:Socdem.png]]Social Democracy - A betrayal of [[File:Leftunity.png]]Left-Wing values? Kinda. Applying [[File:Welf.png]]welfare programs to [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalism is like applying a Band-Aid to a brain tumor.


 * [[File:Soc.png]]Socialism - Sorry, [[File:Einstein.png]]Einstein. We have not gotten out of the predatory phase just yet.


 * [[File:Soclib.png]]Social Liberalism - Big tents are all well and good, but enthusiasm can only take you so far.


 * [[File:Socliber.png]]Social Libertarianism - Dude, you're living in a crisis.


 * [[File:Trot.png]]Trotskyism - The only true believer of [[File:Ormarxf.png]]Communism in Lenin's sphere, although you still needed to realise that it takes more to get rid off [[File:Stalin.png]]bureaucrats. Call me, though...


 * [[File:Utsoc.png]]Utopian Socialism - If only. Maybe one day we can change the hearts and minds of people with a little bit of some harmless [[File:Transh.png]]brain alteration[[File:Technocracy.png]], but uhh... I don't know if that'll go over well as an idea.

D Tier

 * [[File:Antcent.png]]Anti-Centrism - He's right about 25% of the time, so he gets a D. Actually, a D- for being Anti-Realist.


 * [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalism - The few that are rich are those who are [[File:Klep.png]]corrupted under a broken system that preys on their worst instincts. For example, being [[File:Oligarchy.png]]evil for money.


 * [[File:Conservative.png]]Conservatism - You really are the dinosaur of politics; you can't adapt, so you die out. Your beliefs are not only cold-hearted and overall bad, but they're also irrelevant. YOU'RE irrelevant.


 * [[File:Guevara.png]]Guevarism - I'm sorry, but you're almost no better than [[File:Cap.png]]those[[File:Imp.png]] you hate.


 * [[File:Khrusch.png]]Khrushchevism - It was finally a step in the right direction, but one that didn't go far enough, unfortunately. As in terms of [[File:Prog-u.png]]overall progress, not [[File:Corn.png]]corn production.


 * [[File:Liberalconservative.png]]Liberal Conservatism - Buddy, no-one wants to come and vote when everything just stays the same.


 * [[File:Lib.png]]Liberalism - There is no such thing as a necessary evil, and there are far better options than [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalism.


 * [[File:Minarchist.png]]Minarchism - You know, you wouldn't have so many problems if you just got rid of your [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalism. And no, a night-watchman state will not help. No matter how small, it'll always find a way to grow back.


 * [[File:Nation.png]] - Come on, now. This is just childish.


 * [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]]Neoliberalism - You suck.


 * [[File:Nooc.png]]Noocracy - ...Do I remember you?


 * [[File:Pinkcap.png]]Pink Capitalism - Not buying it. [[File:Leftunity.png]]Left-Wing goals would never be fulfilled without [[File:Anticap.png]]Anti-Capitalism.


 * [[File:PolState.png]]Police Statism - Your primary job was to always uphold the [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]]status quo by creating the illusion of security.


 * [[File:Posadist.png]]Posadism - How is nuking the crap out of the planet going to help us in creating a society with aliens?


 * [[File:Rpop-tinfoilhat.png]]Right-Wing Populism - Don't try to make it out like you're the good guy, because you're not.


 * [[File:3way.png]]Third Way - The ideology of your typical [[File:Hillary.png]]milk-toast[[File:New_Labourism.png]] politicians.


 * [[File:Unimon.png]]Universal Monarchism - Young children can only dream of it... For good reason.

E Tier

 * [[File:Ancapf.png]]"Anarcho"-Capitalism - When people prefer to be ruled under a [[File:Monarch.png]]monarch instead of you, that can't be good.

 * [[File:Authcap.png]]Authoritarian Capitalism - Scum.


 * [[File:Euras.png]]Fourth Theory - We both dislike [[File:Lib.png]]liberals, but for VERY different reasons.

 * [[File:Imp.png]]Imperialism - Dehumanizing others for the sake of your own vanity is just wrong.


 * [[File:Klep.png]]Kleptocracy - You disgust me.


 * [[File:Orthlen.png]]Leninism - No. [[File:Vanguardism.png]]Vanguardism is wack. What's even the point of considering parties when you only have one?


 * [[File:Libcon.png]]Libertarian Conservatism - Does [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalism have to force you to give up your mineral rights as well as your family dignity before you start to think that maybe it's not such a good system after all?


 * [[File:Libertarian.png]]Libertarianism - You're letting out mad dogs off of their leashes. When [[File:Corp.png]]corporations are quote-on-quote "oppressed by the government", it has nothing to do with actual oppression for them. It is motivated simply because governments get in the way of maximizing profits.


 * [[File:ML.png]]Marxism-Leninism - A [[File:Cap.png]]Capitalist system controlled under a command economy. What you have to remember is that history is never kind to people who like to play god.


 * [[File:Natbol.png]]National Bolshevism - Is this some kind of game to you?


 * [[File:Obj.png]]Objectivism - Your existence is a lie.


 * [[File:Reactcross.png]]Reactionarism - Heretic. I wonder though, if someone actually did give you some damning evidence that you were wrong, who would you feel most sorry for? The [[File:Fem.png]][[File:Gay.png]]people[[File:Muslim_2.png]][[File:Blacknat.png]] you terrorised, or yourself?


 * [[File:Statecap.png]]State Capitalism - Aren't you just [[File:ML.png]]him again?


 * [[File:Strasser.png]]Strasserism - If [[File:Nazi.png]]NationaI Socialism was ACTUALLY [[File:Soc.png]]Socialist. I sympathize with your economics, but nothing else.


 * [[File:Ultranat.png]]Ultranationalism - Did you know that the [[File:Cball-Poland.png]]Poles invented toothpaste?

F Tier

 * [[File:BarrCom.png]]Barracks Communism - Your passion is admirable, but EXTREMELY misguided.


 * [[File:Fash.png]]Fascism - Mussolini's ideas may have been clear, but all they brought was a massacre. A heavy price to pay for trains that ran on time.


 * [[File:Hmind.png]]Hive-Mind Collectivism - Even though it wouldn't even be possible, let's just imagine for a second that you actually accomplish your goals. Then what?


 * [[File:Hoppef.png]]Hoppeanism - Dear God... Not just a existential Fascist, but the definitive [[File:Anarcho-National_Socialism.png]]existential Fascist.


 * [[File:Ingsocf.png]]Ingsoc - Sometimes it's best if we just leave some things to be fictional.


 * [[File:Juche.png]]Juche - Not only have you made a fool out of yourself, but you have also managed to kill millions of your own people in the process.


 * [[File:Krater.png]]Kraterocracy - Wait, WHAT? WHAT THE ACTUAL [REDACTED] ARE YOU?! No... YOU MUST DIE! YOU MUST DIE!!!


 * [[File:Mao.png]]Maoism - A remorseless hypocrite whose own rules don't apply to himself.


 * [[File:Nazcap-Hat.png]]National Capitalism - Pure, concentrated evil.


 * [[File:Nazi.png]]National Socialism - Arguably the most hateful ideology to ever gain power.


 * [[File:Perkonkrusts.png]]Pērkonkrusts - Sakiet, ko gribat par [[File:Socauth.png]]Ulmani, bet, pat ja viņam izdevās atbrīvoties no ikviena viņa valdīšanas [[File:ML.png]][[File:Socdem.png]]disidenta[[File:Eccon.png]][[File:Agrnac.png]], tas vismaz nozīmēja, ka arī jūs bijāt no ierindas.


 * [[File:Polpot.png]]Pol Potism - It doesn't matter if you had always retained some sincerity, because you were still not mentally fit for office. That just makes you just as, if not even more dangerous than your peers.


 * [[File:Stalin.png]]Stalinism - Whether people choose to compare your vision to that of Marx's, [[File:Classiccom.png]]early or [[File:Libmarx.png]]late, it clearly didn't matter. You either didn't understand, didn't care, or both.


 * [[File:Totalitarian.png]]Totalitarianism - I disagree. I STRONGLY disagree.
