E.g. authoritarianism and collectivism are very similar in their definitions, so they both oppose individualism strongly (only collectivism opposes it more)
Yeah
I think the third best starting point would be authoritarianism/liberalism
But it's kinda redundant
collectivism/individualism already covers so much of that
Yeah I guess so
I've heard plenty of socialists describe America as being nearly a fascist state, I'm not American, but I dont think that is the case
How would you describe the current American system?
Well it has a lot of individualism and capitalism compared to other countries
But I would not describe the US as capitalist or individualist, just more than the rest of the world
So it's basically just mixed on those two scales
And the progressive/conservative divide is particularly strong
It's really hard to be more precise because I'd have to learn so much about the American economy and the legal system
Are you American?
I'm Austrian, just very interested in US politics
Ahaha, I'm Australian
That's the other Austria on a foreign planet I think?
Sometimes I forget you people even exist
Yeah basically, just an upside down Austria

Veery nice
Yeah sorta, I think it's actually bigger is NZ, but it's pretty bad here.
We've been having bushfires lately, and all the feminists can talk about is how these firefighters (heroes is you ask me) are gonna go home and beat their wives.
It's leaked into our institutions and organisations too
In STEM and the military it's twice as hard to get in as a male, not to mention all the womens only scholarships
ze fuck
And people say the US has it bad
You guys should get your own pol
Holy fuck lmao. Firefighters risking their lives = wifebeaters. They really wanna be oppressed so bad <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>
Yeah, funny enough it was the Greens' party who gave that woman the platform in the first place
I wanna petition to get aus_politics
*Watches California annihilate left-wing independent journalists.* Neat...
I think feminists secretely want to get beaten by men so they get some positive attention for a change
I wonder what Freud would have to add to this
Spank me, dayydy, uwu
I love what's happening in Hollywood atm actually, Tim pool talked about it
How females are starting to be the lead stars in some killer good movies
And the feminists aren't celebrating
Love how metoo sold out for a few million.
Dude I unironically love the Wonder Woman movie
Harvey Weinstein walks away~
I actually had no problem supporting me too so I could watch Hollywood burn
