then I discovered that what keynesians and austrian say is a lie for the most part; they strawman marxism
I was never part of the right
@senfood Why are you center-left? Imperialism can't be solved until capitalism is dismantled
An economy without market is possible
I'm center left because I consider the political spectrum to be a circle. I also have specific personal views that don't align with some further on the left.
I'm mainly an absurdist and a misanthrope.

Can you explain to me the circle thing?
>literally horseshoe theory
yikes
But we're talking about the economic spectrum and I just realized what I said doesn't apply
like do you believe in the totalitarian category?
Everything has the potential to work in theory. It just doesn't because of basic human nature.
I'm mainly on the left because it appeals to my personal sensibilities.
why do you think that socialism isn't compatible with human nature?
>human nature
>horseshoe theory
human nature is a creation
we *are* human nature
Socialism is as compatible as any other economic/governmental system
Somewhat but not as much as staunch advocates would believe
thats the thing tho
socialism is the only compatible because it doesn't kill innocents and doesn't steal your labour
human nature isn't some fixed monolith
You're right. I'm speaking in generalities.
but you said socialism doesn't work because it isnt compatible with human nature
If I ever state anything to be an absolute then that's a mistake on my part.
if human nature is malleable, we can change it. if we can change it to fit a more just society, we should
Human nature is malleable, sure but it's not a reed in the wind.
certainly
Some aspects are incredibly difficult to fight because they're on an instinctual level.
we still should
people have bad conditions->people want revolution->people have better conditions in socialism
justice > instinct
appeal to nature is ultimately a fallacy, especially when it concerns humans
People don't necessarily have better conditions in socialist societies.
Humans have a tendency to pervert and corrupt.
soviet union underwent a rapid economic growth, cuba rose standards of living, china did as well
Just look at Venezuela.
