Ehh I guess I agree with Somi on that point, but no trust in the govt to know which ones to put tax dollars into

Basically that

I also believe in the tax funding of things like culture, but by that I mean, actual culture and not modern art.

Still that is subjective unfortunately.

Also things like at least government-majority-share, if not straight up nationalized public transport systems

And well, its not just the tax dollars, is the attention given to post modernist art by journalists and art critics.

I'm this weird as fuck combination of left and right ideals

People are different, what a shocker /s

People like Sargon have been going 'what should our name be as a movement'

I like the term 'pragmatic liberalism'

Joking aside, just goes on to say that the left/nazi thing is just bs

Or just classical liberalism

No, no.

Classical liberalism is generally considered to be solidly on the right.

At least, in places outside the US

Huh, didnt realize that

Left/Right shouldn’t really be the main focus. It should be libertarianism/authoritarianism.

I like the term pragmatic, because it indicates people in the movement are willing to hold left wing viewpoints and right wing viewpoints on different issues at the same time.

I.E. no ideology automatically holds the right answers.

And well, does not sound pretentious

And liberals, because, well

Left/right changes far too often to be accurate I think.

Liberal

I.E. in favor of personal liberty.

Still the liberal term is pretty tainted as well, no thanks to the regressives.

Only in the US.

Well that is true. I am not even american however but I do read into alot of American news

If you call yourself a 'liberal' of any stripe in the Netherlands, you will be automatically looked on as being right-wing.

Maybe extend it to 'Pragmatic liberal centrists'

But 'pragmatic' is the important part.

And well, pragmatic centrists just kinda sounds with redundant just the two of them there

Then again centrists could be the couldnt care less crowd

I wish I had a direct line to Sargon, but ever since he got kicked off Twatter

Not even YT?

I've tried contacting him on Gab, but he ain't responding there

Hmm might be busy, I mean he did do quite alot of self introspection lately.

Yup.

Anyway, it's 2:15 am here

So I'm gonna crawl into my bed

Aight, have a good sleep

3:15 here. Can’t sleep sadly.
