Skeptic Police Statism

Skeptic Police Statism is a pro-american ideology belonging to the user Starceptor combining elements from  and  Skepticism. It is based on two core humanist principles : Skeptic Police Statism thinks that those two principles can only be enforced and protected by an unconventional "stealthy" which works partially in cooperation with the government and prevents the rise of demagogy, false information or   (which all oversimplify or deform ideologies), both nationnaly and internationnaly, while respecting the private life of normal individuals. This is extremly similar to  FBI or  CIA, while rejecting overly   values.
 * 1) The preservation of human kind at all cost against any form of danger or menace and systematic premeditated calculated prevention agaisnt it.
 * 2) The preservation of the great diversity of human ideologies, religions and cultures at all cost so that the status-quo can be constantly questionned and improved trough democratic peaceful means(thus maintaining an open minded philosphy similar to Skepticism).

History
This section portrays Starceptor's reasonning behind the creation of this ideology considering recent events, it also contains some keys elements of Skeptic Police Statism.

The Origin of Skepticism [[File:Skeptic.png]]
Even if our society considers that we can have freely any opinion on any issues, the truth is that some values are so anchored within the status-quo that defying them is often out of question. The French philosopher René Descartes, in a time where the respect of societal values was drastically way more imperative than today, developped the idea that at least once in our life, we must doubt nearly everything we know, in order to arrive at certain knowledge. And while not fully agreeing with Cartesianism (notably concerning the defense of   or the existence of God as a universal and unquestionnable truth) Skeptic Police Statism uses the many forms of Skepticism that both influenced and were influenced by René Descartes as sources of inspiration.

The Problem of 21st century Populism [[File:Pop.png]]
According to Skeptic Police Statism, we need to stay skeptic and pragmatic in order to improve society and avoid being biased. However, this 21st century has been marked by the arrival and the support of many forms of (,   etc...) which is one of the obstacles for Skepticism among others as we'll see later. is, quickly put, the rallying of the masses by oversimplifying a common cause at such a degree that almost anyone could agree with it at some level. However,, as thinkers such as the French writer Bertrand Baddie expresses it, discourages dialogue and support demonization of the opposite causes. This lead to blind violence, and the arrival of demagogue figures, litteraly using the masses at their advantage. Skeptic Police Statism consider necessary the use of a "smartly used" Police State stopping peacefully direct causes of (like misinformation among others) to support education, debate and understanding of other opinions in a skeptic spirit.

The need for a "Police State" Secret PolState.png
Other recent crisis add up to this ideology's call for some form of adapted and rethinked Police State. Those being the terrorist attacks targeted against numerous countries such as the USA or France and the Covid-19 crisis. Both of those situations required new laws and new regulations in order to establish security. Those emergency situations often take by surprise the countries in question, and when the regulations are put in place, they are often criticized for being a tool used by governments to gain more power. Furthermore, in other very different cases of emergency, such as the Russian invasion of  Ukraine, the occident was not immediately ready to answer the Russian offensive, which is something that Skeptic Police Statism think could have been avoided if members of instutions such as the CIA were ready and prepared to intervene in order to evacuate Ukrainians civils or indirectly hinder  Putin. In all of those cases of emergency, Skeptic Police Statism judges that an organisation preparing for incomming crisis while in a period of peace and planifying an effective and pragmatic plan to face the said emergency (while having no influence on individual freedom during this preparation process), eventually raising government's power on a rationate scale until it is over (instead of having excessive authority being used by the State at its advantage due to an overall confusion and unawaraness on the way how to prepare against crisis), is a great system to put in place.

America's role [[File:Cball-US.png]]
As stated earlier, Skeptic Police Statism is a pro-american ideology, meaning it supports America's power in the modern and world and envisage some sort of American Hegemony. The arguments for that reasonning are multiple and are inspired by the works of the American writer ; Joseph Nye :


 * America's influence on western culture during and after the Cold War is so consequent that during our mental education (consommation, media, entertainement etc...) we've been influenced by American ideals and our political views, as [[File:AntiAm.png]] anti-americanists as they can be, are all fundamentely "biased" in some sort of way by American culture, meaning that true Skepticism is technically unreachable, unless we accept this american soft power as a norm (similarly to how Cartesianism accepted some ethics or as a norm but not as an unquestionnable truth) which would lead to accepting American hegemony while we still can debate on it.


 * America is the freest country compared to other important world powers like Russia or [[File:Cball-China.png]] China and one of the most conceivable future outcomes of our current situation is the conservation of this rank. If America is going to stay the number #1 world power, countries of the world need to learn to work more hand in hand with it while rejecting the temptation of overly authoritarian alternatives.


 * America has one of the instutions the most similar to a "Secret Police State" with the CIA and the FBI. Those systems both have a national and an international network, meaning that the prevention against potential menaces or dangers is assured and they are linked to the US government while maintaining some sort of independence. However, those structures are far from perfect as controversies and polemics have been highlighted recently (use of torture against their opponents, invasion of private life etc...). Skeptic Police Statism thus thinks that in oder to achive its ideals, we could take the model offered by those existing instutions and rework it in order to be more adequate and righteous.

Beliefs
This section portrays the overall functionment of Skeptic Police Statism.

Establishing a "Secret Police State"

 * Respecting the individuals' private lives : Skeptic Police Statism must not interfere with basic human liberties and private life overall normally. This why this institution is partially limited by the democratically elected government. Outside of a state of emergency similar to the previous examples in the History section, the Police State's influence over society must remain tiny and negligible so that individuals would better exercise Freedom of Speech and of expression. However, that doesn't stop the Police State from anticipating or forecasting eventual dangers on both a national and international leval and taking adequate and minor measures while planning and eventual long term solution against them.
 * Questionning itself, improving itself and avoiding corruption : The idea itself of Skeptic Police Statism seems quite contradictory since that if such an institution existed, it could control flows of information at its will and thus achieving the very opposite of its primary goal, this contrary being the modification of truth and national scale lies. This is why Skeptic Police Statism must be approximatelty 50% monitored by the State, to prevent both excessive bias comming from both sides. In oder to fight even more against corruption, absolute transparency to the public must be preserved, so that the Police State can receive critcs and improve itself, eventually through referendums. This transparency is also needed as perfect information is necessary for Skepticism. This transparency must be respected at all cost, at least when adressing the democratically elected government, at the exception of which if this government directly disrespects the founding principles of Skeptic State Policism, shows tendencies or neglects basic human rights.
 * Rights of the Police State :
 * 1) Right to monitor governmental activity and to publically criticize it at any wanted level if this said government does not respect pluralism,  means, Freedom of Speech or shows to be a form of.
 * 2) Right (and obligation) to inform the public about fake news and misinformation, this does not include censorship, but signalisation of sources that overly deform real world facts (an internet user stumbling on an artile spreading misinformation could still read it, as this is basic freedom, however he will be heavily warned about the nature of this article. This prevention must be transparent and explained to the public, so that pointed out articles must have valid arguments and reasons for their report.
 * 3) Right to interve on a military or policing scale with the government's approval as long as this type of intervention respects its prime principles and does not harm innocent civilians.
