Here's others: empathy for the weak, versus sympathy for the strong

2019-07-18 19:22:18 UTC  

aside from communism name any other ideology that also holds no natural dichotomy as a tennant.

2019-07-18 19:23:28 UTC  

Utilitarianism, from which communism sprung

2019-07-18 19:24:36 UTC  

some sects of political religion too. personaly I just see the whole right left dichotomy as pointless thought terminating rehtoric

2019-07-18 19:25:37 UTC  

In a ways, it is.

It's only true so far as to classify people into two groups of the empathetic vs the orderly types

2019-07-18 19:26:39 UTC  

we should probably move this to politics but I must ask why are those two dichotomous?

2019-07-18 19:26:50 UTC  

Once you separate progressivism from 'left wing', it's a pointless classifier

Old people and niggers steal my pension

@Harazu Keshtah I should say 'mercy VS justice'

2019-07-18 19:27:54 UTC  

It's not good to have one and not the other

2019-07-18 19:28:01 UTC  

That's your left VS right in reality

2019-07-18 19:28:42 UTC  

you're kinda illustrating my point. because I can think of many ways to twist both those terms into mixing with eachother.

2019-07-18 19:28:55 UTC  

They always will

2019-07-18 19:29:07 UTC  

And I'm agreeing with you lol

2019-07-18 19:29:18 UTC  

I'm just giving some nuance to the point

2019-07-18 19:30:20 UTC  

the only dichotomy that truly matters in the end for the world of politics is collectiveism vs individualism.

2019-07-18 19:30:28 UTC  

Eh

2019-07-18 19:30:31 UTC  

Not really

2019-07-18 19:31:08 UTC  

We are a Heirarchical species that self organizes into collectives on several different axises

2019-07-18 19:31:29 UTC  

It's a very 2D low IQ dichotomy to make

2019-07-18 19:32:31 UTC  

groups aren't collectives humans organize into groups but that doesn't reflect how they perceive themselves

2019-07-18 19:34:15 UTC  

Yes, all humans see themselves by their group identity.

Why do you think identity politics is so easy to spread?

Im making a radio detonated explosive charge ama

2019-07-18 19:35:12 UTC  

I must not be human than because I sure don't

2019-07-18 19:35:15 UTC  

People instinctually see themselves as a part of a group, and their rank within that hierarchy

2019-07-18 19:35:25 UTC  

Im making a radio detonated explosive charge ama

2019-07-18 19:35:47 UTC  

@amsalem did you make sure the frequency was clear first?

2019-07-18 19:36:03 UTC  

would be funny if i dident

2019-07-18 19:36:07 UTC  

but yeah i did

2019-07-18 19:36:17 UTC  

Safety first

2019-07-18 19:37:24 UTC  

based on how politics goes I must be in the minority of people who are generaly freaked out by all the hive minded collectivism going around.

2019-07-18 19:37:32 UTC  

ill send pictures

2019-07-18 19:37:33 UTC  

@Harazu Keshtah You don't classify yourself as a member of your family, community, race, or nation? Your religion?

Or are you a secular materialist non partisan who's a 'citizen of the world'?

2019-07-18 19:37:54 UTC  

Oh wait, that's a collective as well

2019-07-18 19:38:01 UTC  

You must be an alien then

2019-07-18 19:38:19 UTC  

I'm me

2019-07-18 19:38:39 UTC  

ok nigger

2019-07-18 19:38:41 UTC  

all of that other stuff are just affiliations that I'm not bound to.

2019-07-18 19:38:46 UTC  

Mmk, yeah, you are the odd one out in the scenario

2019-07-18 19:38:57 UTC  

groups I join or leave of my own volition
