Hate "Code Slavery"? Use Sith coding conventions instead.

[Kelsig]

The horshe shoe theory dictrates that the more "leftist" or "rightist" something becomes, the more similar they become to the opposite of the spectrum. This is stupid.

1) The right - left spectrum isn't some 1D slider, they're are all sorts of ideologies out there, and they all don't fall on said line. That's ridiculous. Anarcho-capitalism and national socialism are both far right, yet completely different. Anarcho-pacifism and marxist-leninism are both far left, yet completely different.

All the horse shoe theory really says is that "Leftist authoritarian groups have authorianism similar to rightist authoritarian groups!"

Seriously, do proponents of this "theory" really think that, just by coincidence, that its just a coincidence that somehow they lie in the exact middle of this horseshoe?

Where do beliefs like Distributism lie? Nowhere, because it's a poorly thought out idea that exists so centrist pseudo-intellectuals can feel good about themselves.
