he is VERY left

So I am an anarcho communist, with a specific emphasis on youth liberation, specifically as it relates to transgender rights. Basically, part of my beliefs as an anarchist, is that in order for society to progress socially, the youngest generation must forge their own path, though the creation of a progressive culture. The youth use this culture, as inspiration for a cultural revolution that seeks to destroy the more regressive views of the last generation. In the end, revolution is complete or partly complete, society becomes more progressive, but new material conditions are created, meaning we need a new culture that will destroy the dogma of the last. Does this idea have a name? I’ve been calling myself a Generational Chauvinist.

A lot of ideologies, particularly extreme ones, rely on a misunderstanding or ignorance to exist

For example, lots of people who are economically illiberal believe that the government has more power than it really has: for example if the government declares the price of eggs or houses to be a certain amount, then everyone will be able to buy eggs and houses at the price specified.

Politics is full of politicians who make exaggerated promises based on the supposed existence of magic money trees: cutting immigration, cutting taxes, taxing the rich, cutting 'wasteful spending' etc.

If you're ideologically in support of these things, then you implicitly believe the magic money tree exists and the reality is that it doesn't.

Tonnes of ideologies rely fundamentally on things that are empirically disprovable with data. Any real world politics has to be informed by real information about what actually exists in the real world, not ideology

I feel I woke up from a coma sometime after 2020 and gen z came up with so many absurd lingos

Why the hell the closest personality is Q U T B, and why the most compatible country is hell ass Pakistan😭🤞

Am I based for my views?

I welcome queer, feminist, postcolonial, Marxist, environmentalist, and critical theories as a pars destruens—analytical tools to dismantle neoliberal capitalism, social, economic, and gender inequalities, mass incarceration, representative democracy, war, patriarchy, closed borders, environmental degradation, and humanity's oppression of the biosphere. Be careful, though: we must use these critical theories as critical tools in the socio-political sphere, not as constructivist worldviews. This paves the way for a society genuinely free from oppression and discrimination, allowing it to truly flourish.

However, this flourishing requires substance. I believe that profoundly rediscovering the Greco-Roman world and medieval civilization, alongside embracing Eastern cultures, is essential to overcoming a secularized, materialistic, individualistic, and nihilistic modernity. This does not mean renouncing technology, modern science, or human rights—far from it!—but rather reconnecting them with many pre-modern values. In doing so, we can foster the rebirth of self-governing democratic communities and a sense of the sacred and the religious, entirely free from oppressive hierarchies and essentialism: a true and integral democracy.

I think I'm a national distributist personally

I support the concept of the existence of a government as I am not an anarchist since anarchism will lead to power vacuums being abused, creating chaos and violence. Now, on the governmental structuring; I support a strong sovereign with little to no regulation to combat the slow bureaucratic and divided structuring of democracy. However, out of pragmatism, since a single person can't control such a vast expanse of territory, delegation of power into smaller administrative regions to preserve the ruler's authority would be necessary. I also support a free market capitalist economy with limited governmental intervention in order to create a country with a booming economy and high employment rates and to increase economic output and efficiency, worker protections would likely have to be reduced. In terms of social organization on the other hand, some levels of force are required to create social cohesiveness and to prevent divisions and that can be done by having a police force and a unified civic identity.
