depends on the country and circumstance.

@Deleted User triggered AntiSpam, let's not try that again

autocephalous style government

Centralized but localized governments should have the power to be able to administrate effectively

that's vague enough to just mean statism

oh and u support borders ig

that response means nothing else @Bagrat

I have a mixed view on the issue

Although I lean towards centralized a government is inherently limited in scope of what it itself can efficiently administrate and hence a larger state can not be fully centralized without suffering major drawbacks and hence it has to be somewhat decentralized to more local authorities to accommodate

oh ok gotcha

Does this sub hate libertarians or something?

there are some natcaps and lolberts here

"Natcaps" ???

Pinochet lovers

Oh... gotcha.

So... neocon sub?

There is a lolbert on the staff, but he's been offline for a while

I dont think any of us are neocons

not even our resident schlomo @otterlycorrect

Strange lingo. But right wing authoritarians?

Hmm.

@Zayan Watchel Many of us are fascists, yes

but not all or even most

maybe about a third to less than half

Wouldn't you describe Fascism as left wing though? Lots of Fascist regimes have been closer to socialism then authoritarian right wing-ism.

No, because socialism and social programs are often confused @Zayan Watchel

Socialism seeks to abolish class and pursues equality

Sure.

Fascism is class collaboration within a hierarchy

hierarchy*

So (economic, I'm guessing?) classes cooperating?

Oh.

What do you mean by Hierarchy?

It's a meritocracy, but the state is supposed to function as a body.

Ah, right, the state funds your family theatre trips. Or your employer 😃

Let me find a quote from Mussolini that I often refer to when people ask if fascism is left wing or right wing

Okey dokey.

"No individuals or groups (political parties, cultural associations, economic unions, social classes) outside the State (15). Fascism is therefore opposed to Socialism to which unity within the State (which amalgamates classes into a single economic and ethical reality) is unknown, and which sees in history nothing but the class struggle. Fascism is likewise opposed to trade unionism as a class weapon. But when brought within the orbit of the State, Fascism recognizes the real needs which gave rise to socialism and trade unionism, giving them due weight in the guild or corporative system in which divergent interests are coordinated and harmonized in the unity of the State " @Zayan Watchel

From The Doctrine of Fascism

Fascism is anti-socialism

The Nazis, aside from the Strasserists, were not socialists
