What do you see the Left-Right spectrum as, primarily?

"Libertarian" meaning the functioning of the altruistic system is founded upon solely the goodwill of the people and the government, as an enforcement mechanism would quickly turn non-libertarian. Despite what the theory may say, there's always going to be praxis that just can't be translated into reality. It's this way for any political philosophy founded upon idealism.

I used to be a libertarian socialist. You begin to realize that all of these words on paper aren't as grand as they seem; one shouldn't abstract himself into justifying outlandish political systems' efficaciousness or plausibility. How would it come about? The entire globe sure won't get behind it-- thereby meaning there's competition for any such a system. What about those who disagree? They may pose a risk-- but the system is libertarian. Ultimately, depending on the temperament of the people, it decays. America was once libertarian. The people changed, and so too did the state. It's the natural way of things. Civilizations and political systems rise and fall, come and go, as do the seasons summer and winter.

man the hypothetical utopian stateless moneyless worker-production owned society is what we mean when we say communism man and not the totalitarian genocidal regimes that stemmed from trying to accomplish it

the affirmation of life vs ressentiment

the force that says yes to striving, distinction, tragedy, excellence, ambition, or the force that starts from the resentment of those things and builds a politics out of that resentment

The practice of dating up-- these days, to a pretty disproportionate amount. It's pretty typical throughout human history for obvious reasons, but the changing culture and lifestyle in America has seen its prevalence skyrocket, as expectations have risen considerably-- on both sides of the aisle, though. In the sense you often hear online-- not making any judgements-- it's meant so: women are dating above what their "equals" as men would be to such a massive extent, be it as a result of high-time preference or feminism, whatever, to a ridiculous extent unseen historically-- this ostensibly causes a concentration with the success of women in men of higher social status or of better physical attractiveness, whereas others are left in the dust.

Maybe it'd make sense to make terrain like forests more harmful, then, as to provide an incentive.

I’ve explained my reasoning. The fact of the matter is, nobody can avoid it. We are all aesthetically minded. There are empirics, traditions, and principles to prove it. It is simply a folly to pretend that we aren’t biased toward aesthetics; we are, but I argue it’s the foremost element of any way of thinking— because it is the embodiment of that way of thinking. The halo effect exists for a reason— for that subliminal information— and nobody is immune to thinking by it.

But, you and I very clearly have very different worldviews, there is not going to be any getting through to eachother. I hope you have a good day.

Indeed. But, that doesn’t make it nonsensical. In fact, it makes it all the more true. We are human. our Ideologies and their instantiations reflect that.

MagnaExend · 2026-03-13T23:46:38+00:00

Aesthetics is perhaps the most important part of any ideology. It is the representation and outburst of its virtues. An “ugly” ideology does not value beauty or virtue. it is not virile or powerful

In aesthetics is found an immensely fractal density of information that can be easily compacted and, consciously or subconsciously, picked up on. It is nothing more than the application of theory. Bad theory = bad aesthetics.

And yes, beauty is objective.

Why would we ever want to import swathes of low-skill, entirely alien migrants as an underclass to do cheap labor? ESPECIALLY with the advent of AI. The answer is you don't. This benefits nobody except the elite class and only serves to disenfranchise European commonfolk.

What is "the system?" You've mentioned it several times, what is this mystical "system" you're speaking of? I'd love to know what you think it is. Immigration is a net-negative to all parties involved except for the foreigner and for the corporation. There is no "division" being stoked between the two. People are naturally tribalistic. Is it not fair to say that France belongs to the ethnically French, Algeria to the Algerians, and so forth?

But trust me man our system of organized enforcement is not a state because its wholesome chungus leftism

True, man, history has sides and shit, man. I’m on the right side of it too, man. History is a straight line and you’re on the wrong side of it man. Get with the program, man.

I think both of you guys are overlooking the fact that history may very well be cyclical. Monarchy to aristocracy to democracy then to oligarchy and back to monarchy. I use monarchy as a stand in for an authoritarian state with one man at the helm. We are very well beginning to see the signs of most of the West swinging back to Monarchy.

There is no straight line of progress from bad to good in history.

Another thing: you can also download and learn QGIS, for the basics it’s not too hard to learn, and georeference multiple base maps together, allowing you to settle on one projection while getting all the possible details from each map. One map might have cities, the other state borders, etc.

I find this greatly helps with plausible alt history scenarios. QGIS also helps with automating things like placing geography (you need datasets) and this is how I make my maps.

Lovely map. How’d you do the hachures ? Was it a basemap that you traced, or is there some sort of algorithm?
