So WWIII is definitely gonna have a lot to do with Asia

Hopefully no nukes

That would be up to China, Russia, and North Korea, western powers wouldn't do that unless it was absolutely necessary, and even then we'd do what we did with Hiroshima and Nagasaki, target military cities and warn the people of what's coming

Yes

Is Russia more allied with the US or China?

I don’t think this is the best place to discuss this

What channel should we use?

Good question... I can't think of what channel this would go in

Maybe <#722683196373991506>?

Yep definitely <#722683196373991506>

Yay I was right!

@KermitTheFrog

Yes?

just following up on your exploration of libertarianism and where it falls on the political spectrum

Yes

Ohh

the political landscape is not a linear scale

it is 2 dimensional

Have y’all tooken the political compass quiz?

No

Ya mean 3 dimensional

the up down axis is basically 0% government at the top and 100% government at the bottom

Supposedly tells you where you are in your political views

We have a <#727616207619883128> chat

the left right axis is arbitrary and depends on what population, where, when

Ok

I have to go

Ty for the chart

example, Kennedy democrats would have been in favor of several things that Trump republicans are in favor of, so it's the same nation, different time period

if you have 100% liberty and 0% government, then you can't move left or right of center because that would require using some sort of government to enforce that preference

if you have 100% government and 0% liberty (communism, aka statism) then there are no preferences, only what you're allowed to do/have/say/wear/eat/etc

look up The Nolan Chart on google for tests/more info

also, I do not give leftists the term "liberal" anymore, as their bent is not predominantly towards liberty as a classical liberal (e.g. Thomas Jefferson) was

I would suggest that, unlike the chart I posted above, the shape has shifted into more of a rectangle than a square, with the right being higher and closer to libertarians, while the left has shifted down and is closer to statists. This makes sense, as generally the right is in favor of less government and the left is in favor of more government

this is why you see things like the liberty movement and the tea party within the right side of the aisle, whereas you see socialists like AOC and Bernie on the left

@LiveFreeOrPi the conservatives of today are the liberals of yesterday.

I think the chart has shifted to this now:
