I guess genaric is a better term than subjective
Neo as a prefix for ideology doesn't necessarily mean new. Neo-Nazism won't be not neo-Nazism in a century if it's the same ideas.
it literally just means new
It means a detraction from original ideas.
Neo-imperialism is different from imperialism, neo-Nazism is different from Nazism.
go look in chat
Yeah I see that.
But that's semantics. It doesn't mean anything.
thats my point for fucks sake
Neo-imperialism is "new" imperialism because intranational governments made direct conquest impossible. It won't ever be not neo-imperialism simply because it's old.
but in 10 years what do we call neo neo imperialism
We won't because it will be the same.
its like calling a city New York
It's not like that at all.
fake news
lol
how is it not?
so what makes you think there cant be a second form of neo nazi or neo conservitive?
Assigning New to city names was a gimmick to attract people in the Americas with the assumption it will be similar to the European city, in this case York. Assigning neo as a prefix to an ideology means it's a detraction from original ideas.
They're not related concepts at all.
But very clearly not conceptually related.
sure but to say their not related is false
I don't think there can't be a third iteration of ideas.
The only way they're related is semantically, not conceptually. Arguing over that is further semantics.
in the history of forever there has alwasy been a new form of something
But has it ever been called neo-neo-X?
not yet
Why assume it as an absolute that it will?
Nazi ideology is still less than 100 years old
Nazi ideology is completely different from neo-Nazism. That's why they're separate concepts.
The only similarity is racial materialism.
Most neo-Nazis are just social reactionaries.
no I dont assume anything is absolute thats the point im making
So you're a postmodernist. 😎
sure if assumptions are now reality you post modernist
Postmodernism is just a rejection of metanarratives ("big stories" in Lyotard's original French).
Which fascism absolutely is. It's a metanarrative, a set of premises and a worldview.
That's why fascists hate postmodernism.
And why everyone on the right does as well.
It conflicts with fundamentalism, which usually entails religion for a lot of the right.
