Were you less pessimistic in the past?

No, actually I'm quite new to Georgism. So this is actually an optimistic turn.

Do you have much exposure to other kinds of Leftism, Marx or Kropotkin?

Nnnope. Very limited. I have "Origin of the Family, Private Property, and the State" but I've only touched it barely. I've been party to anarchist communes, and leading up to Georgism I saw myself as a "wannabe anarchist" - IE, I idolized that system but had no real hope of it functioning broadly and only limited hope of it functioning self-sufficiently for production. Also, the communities I was part of, though run by clever people, were full of idpol to the point of masochism.

That's a shame.

There is a lot of content to possibly go through. Are you new to Discord in general?

No, but I don't register this name.

I guess my advice would be to expose yourself to different politics, ask questions and join different Discord servers.

Are there multiple leftypol servers?

Why do you love leftypol so much?

I don't. Leftypol sucks. It's just one of very few relatively large lefty communities where shitting on idpol and pop-sensitivity stuff is smiled upon. and the divisive identity problems in the mainstream (and even less mainstream) American 'left' are acknowledged and criticized.

I'm not really out to read theory on the servers - I *do* read stuff that piques my interest on the board, but I'm more looking here for discussion where I can participate in some form of action not necessarily related to theory. Not antifa either, just some way to physically help out.

Stay a while. I am not connected to political parties, but others here are. They could help you.

Cool!

@JonnyWhatsit So tell me, what is your ideology?

@Deleted User Scroll up numb nuts.

@Deleted User Let the man answer for himself.

>Let the man repeat himself
Amazing.

Georgism

**No clue if I even spelt this right**

This one has comprehension skills.

@Anglican The fuck is that?

I don't know

Chopin said something like Liberal socdem reformism

Sounds like something that even soc dem's would hate.

@Deleted User http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Georgism

Erm...

None of that is inherently opposed

Oh

Geo-libertarianism

I've heard of this

it's the market side of the 'land should not be a thing to be bought and sold'

Did y'all know Adam Smith stole his ideas from Sharia law?

🤔

@Anglican What the fuck, how do you even promote a market in a state where land cannot be bought or sold?

It is one of the first political ideologies he has learned much about. Give him a break.

You just use it?

I don't advocate for it neither do I know shit about it.

I'm just skimming over the wikipedia article

>Wikipedia
Stop that.

I guess it's just a principle of occupation of land equals ownership
