or is not by definition socialism
either way
It's like a liberal society that has severely abridged private property rights and no freedom of speech level of praxis violation
what's a praxis violation?
Praxis is the "how do we do it or accomplish it" of an ideology
It's often central to an ideology
as a matter of fact that does sound quite fine
ideologically
the issues I had with the very word mao are pretty much related to the actual policies that were enforced an enacted in china during that era
including certain limits on freedom of speech
Liberal praxis would be constitutional rights
Back
Or common liberal praxis
I.e to uphold natural, positive and negative human rights
Which are key to liberal philosophy
:thonking:
I'm an ex libertarian by the way
I used to religiously back constitutional praxis
Still do like it
Actually

I'd describe myself as a center-left egalitarian individualist
there are two sections in this statement
center-left:
I think the cetrain values that socialism et al promote at least on an ideological level are _good_ (as in "ethical"), but I do also value freedom greatly. thus social democracy / a heavily regulated free market is the ideal compromise between these two values (in addition to what can reasonably implemented in practice, and what can not)
egalitarian individualist:
certain theological and philosophical though processes have simply led me to the conclusion that this is the natural state of all existence, and the way we should perceive the uninverse
to me this is more than a mere belief (even though I am technically an agnostic theist)
(and I don't support any one chosen religion or even the existence of organized religion in general)
>social democracy
You 2 look like people about to make sex
Well you have proven to be more politically literate then most
If this server is filled with ones such as you, perhaps it will have decent debates @Slkfd
I sure do hope so
Don't expect debates here
when I crack cold ones with the boys, we usually debate 4 hours or more and sing the rest
-totally isn't paraphrasing legate lanius
but we can never touch these truly important subjects sadly
At the moment I'm studying anarchist literature,
even though there is a strange mix of commies, shitlords, and two conservatives and one alt-right borderline nazi
I'm not an anarchist but having some knowledge of their theory is valuable as they are a major group at the moment
2 commies?
