Well I would have to disagree with your assessment of what Jordan is saying while agreeing that you are correct.
By the traditional definition of left vs right, left side of the king being the people's representative and right side the Barons(Land-owning Moneyed class) using that definition Fascists are Centrist Authoritarians.
While JDP often uses a neutral definition based on personality traits where Conservative equals high conscientiousness while Liberal equals high openness .
I think we can agree that the Fascists weren't Liberal by the traditional definition although by the modern definition Hitler the vegetarian animal rights activist would qualify. Conversely to support your point of view marxists aren't exactly liberal either.
For me though the crux of what the Lobster Prophet is trying to teach us is that Compassion in it's extreme form is a vice.
While everyone realizes that the Nazi's "Concern" for the "Aryan" race led to horrible death camps nobody seems to realize that Socialism's "Concern for the "Oppressed" led to even worse death camps plus mass starvation.
I have been pretty angry since I read Gulag Archipelago.
I certainly warmed up to you during the Kyle part and I hope you consider using the #informationwar tag for your posts so I can curate them, cheers!
Thanks for the feedback.
I suppose if we were to converse on specific points in depth, we would come to consensus. I'm not an expert in political sciences and philosophical trends by any stretch of imagination, so I might not be yet very well versed in conveying my thoughts on these subjects. All the isms have definitions and if I get something wrong, that's shame on me.
I looked into IW, and I think I can use it with peace of mind.
Joined the discord earlier.
I don't know the topic of the next entry but I will try to do more, now that I put my face out there. You know what I mean.
Thanks again.
Glad to hear you checked out IW and if a million socialists can't seem to get their ism right there is no pressure on you;]
