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
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
They were capitalists
Mussolini, however, was neither
