@campodin Id say the division is rather best served with the traditional idea of left -> authoritarianism and right -> Anarchy. Of course this is defining the extremes but when you add say an economic axis then you get something that can actually define a political ideology. Generally it holds true to say that even if the right wishes for a greater state and collectivism in general it still values individual merit and input as well as productivity

I agree that the center is really a floating entity

its defined by the extremes of its opponents

today it lands firmly in what is rationally leftism, and as such is simply watered down leftism

@Bogatyr Bogumir I think that is the opposite of how to look at it. Anarchism has classically been associated with the left

The right values hierarchy

@campodin I mean gneerally you can simply flip the scale as I defined it. Either way I tend to define the extremes as totalitarian vs anarchy. I dont think authoritarianism is the right word

Ok, in that sense maybe.

there’s a reason that left-authoritarianism and left-anarchism are distinguished and same for the right

Left anarchism doesn't and can't exist. Change my mind

many people would see it as left -> anarchy and right -> authoritarian

well communism is supposed to be anarchist in concept

i.e. no state, no money, etc

I figured you would point out that I just contradicted myself

cool
