Proto-Tomjazzism

Proto-Tomjazzism was the ideology of user Tomjazzy before he became a Socialist. It is is a civically  and  Culturally Left wing ideology. This is actually a rather recent change, but I felt as though the shift in outlook was significant enough to warrent it's own page.

Philosophical Beliefs
Proto-Tomjazzism's belief system is largely the same as Tomajzzism's, with the added ideals of Philosophical Pessimism (derived from Arthur Schopenhauer) and a firm Antinatalism stance. Tomjazzism views human existence as an abomination, and he thinks the best way to stop human suffering and vice is to cease to reproduce. He still thinks human beings have rights, and views it as his ethical duty to seek justice, even if he doesn't always feel like it. He also has yet to call himself a Natural Law Theorist, largely because he doesn't really understand teleology and is uncomfortable with many of it's advocators anti LBGT views.

Political Beliefs
Proto-Tomjazzism based his political ideals on the ideology founded in John Locke's  Second Treaties of Govement, with the exception being that he doesn't believe that the use condition of property rights changes for none perishable goods, like gold. In practice, this works out as a representative liberal democracy, largely  progressive in policy (except for gun rights and  abortion), and focused on building up a rational and free thinking populace while also trying to limit the power of  corporation's and the ultra wealthy without resorting to. He thinks socialism will either result in a state monopoly in at least some fields, or else result in the complete breakdown of society as people fail to self organize and authoritarian power structures take there place. He thinks Nothing better then capitalism can exist, even though he hates it.

Pretty much anything Tomjazzism hates; mostly for the same reasons.
