Edelism

Edelism is the ideology of the Polcompball user Edelex. It is a federalist, market socialist/syndicalist, welfarist and Georgist ideology. Economically, it advocates for a decentralised and democratised state whose purpose is rehabilitative criminal justice, basic welfare, and funding an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) program to help workers buy out their companies with the eventual goal of every business being cooperative. This is also helped by strikes and boycotts to seize the means of production in cases of loopholes or non compliance. It believes the local governments should organise themselves in a manner inspired by democratic confederalism to bargain the amount of collected tax money (mainly from land value tax) that each area gets. It wants the local governments to be run as a mixture of representatives from different industries and some overall representatives for the bargaining, and as much direct democracy as possible through local referendums and councils of randomly selected volunteers to make decisions, with some level of representative democracy as constant voting is impractical. It believes that family and cooperative businesses should be given tax breaks, including cooperative farms from their land value tax. After some years of this to let cooperatives outcompete capitalist firms and lead to the redistribution of the means of production, the state is no longer needed, and it will either stay but be unneeded or be voted away by the people.

It's very progressive, being pro-choice, pro-LGBTQ+, pro-CRT, etcetera, and has little tolerance for conservatism, especially when people try to legislate it through things like abortion laws. However, it also believes that class is more important than things like gender, sex and race that many progressives focus on, and that things such as representation politics and some boycotts are a distraction from the real issue at the base of everything: class.
