What the fuck
Libertarianism originally is attributed to what we call classical liberalism today but gave birth to anarchism, originally far-left. People think of libertarianism as right-wing in America because the American libertarian movement is almost exclusively right-wing.
The only left equivalent is the Green Party.
Historically libertarianism has been dominated by the left.
Irma just pointed out why im actually a classical liberal but I use libertarian because y'll conservitives get triggerd
People use libertarian and classical liberal interchangeably but they aren't exact synonyms.
I know
Im actually a classical liberal but its close enough
Classical liberals are cool. 😎
Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan are my role modles
Jordan Peterson is such a meme.
Hos understanding of postmodernism is limited to social constructivism and his analysis of history seems elementary.
I bought my mom 12 rules for life for mothers day
His work in psychology is actually pretty good though.
True but to his defense post-modernism is still dumb af
It's not that bad, it's just highly subjective and morally bankrupt.
Like Foucault personally took pride in being amoral.
He was a really smart dude though.
I saw an awesome debate between him and Chomsky.
So was ted kaczynski
Postmodernism is just a philosophy. People inadvertently pass it off as politics.
But Peterson attempts to equate social constructivism to postmodernism as a whole.
true
but you gotta admit some of that shit gets too obscure to properly differentiate
Most people cannot define postmodernism.
Definitely not Peterson.
I define it as the belief that reality is subjective
most of the people I talk to are utter laymans in political ideologies though they still tend to identify as democrat
Reality being subjective is only one side of postmodernism.
I know but as far as it pertaining to leftist politics thats the only real important part you gotta understand some people need simplification
"Leftist politics" <:WhatDid:459545655527079946> <:YouDo:459545654058811392> <:YouDo:459545654058811392> <:YouDo:459545654058811392> <:YouDo:459545654058811392> <:YouDo:459545654058811392> <:YouDo:459545654058811392> <:ToMyDrink:459545654323314710>
There is no American left.
O_o
this is what im talking about when I say simplifacation
What the American "left" wants: to uphold the status quo and capitalism
Or more specifically crony capitalism.
im a programmer if I was writing you a program I wouldnt ask you if you wanted me to use a double a float or an int id just use what was appropriate and simplify it so it didnt confuse you
discussion must be done this way sometimes
its possible to be too precise
Nobody here seems to know anything about leftism is the impression I get.
