Neo-Borgism

Neo-Borgism is the official ideology of user Borgman1 or just borg. It hails from the Midwest and is inspired by leftist ideologies of his ancestral countries, Norway, Sweden, and Germany.

Economy
My beliefs in economics is inherently Marxian and hard left. I am a big supporter and staunch believer of Austromarxist policies. I support that and classical social democrats like Kautsky and left-reformists of the SPD. It should be said that it would make the most sense to start with social democracy as a system and progress the path into socialism. My economic/socio-economic beliefs can be best described in the SPD's Goerlitz programme, in which they prioritize on slowly securing wins for the proletariat and improving their lives rather than do nothing and wait for a violent revolution. And this programme does stray from othrodox marxism in that, I also would consider myself Lassallean. I believe that unions are slowly becoming more leftist as the New Left gets more popular in America, but I do much prefer the unions of the Old Left that would war with companies for what they want and organize as one big group. I endorse and like syndicalist orgs like The IWW. I also believe in social housing programs and government-provided housing. also wouldnt it be really funny if we slaughtered every landlord brutally

Civic
To sum it up extremely briefly, I believe in a parliamentary republic. I am extremely for parliaments and one single ruler. The system acts like the US System, with different made up of parliaments of people who work in those departments and experts. Like semi-technocracy in a departmental parliament. The ruler (what ever they want to be called) will be a semi-figurehead, being elected by the parliament and able to be vetoed of their leadership by a popular vote. The parliament, however, will overall be the driving force behind the governments action. I believe in constitutional freedom of speech and freedom of religion.

Philosophy
I would consider myself a self-sovreignist until what you do with your body harms someone. I believe in individual liberty until you infringe on someone's life. I also belive in humanism. I believe that to understand socialism, you have to be looking at it from a humanist point of view and think to yourself how what and why something would generally benefit all of manking. I support socialism because the current capitalist system kills the freedom of not having to choose between food or electricity. Capitalism is an inherent hinderance of the principles of the societal right to life, liberty, and personal property, and therefore should be destroyed for the good of humanity.

Diplomacy
I have many friends with grandpas who died due to serving in Vietnam. One of my friends's grandpa died when he was 3 due to Agent Orange from serving. I do not want anyone I know and or love to have to go to some random country just to die by state-backed chemical bombings. I am highly anti-imperialist and anti-colonialism. Imperialist and colonialist rule is brutal and cruel, it bleeds the life out of a nation and slowly makes the citizens rely on immigration and refugee status. However, I am not anti-immigration nor anti-refugee. I believe we should take care of people that are running from imperialist-backed governments, it's not their fault that there are neo-imperialist countries everywhere. I am a socialist patriot of my community and my state, and I endorse anti-imperialist ideals. The time where staying out of wars ends is when there's a country disobeying human rights and committing acts of genocide.

Reform v. Revolution
I do not believe in revolution as a first approach of establishing a different kind of government. However, if a government is oppressive and will not allow for reform at all, revolution would probably be the only way. While I dislike revolution in general and generally think that violence can and should be avoided, revolution as a last choice isn't a bad idea. Capitalism will ultimately kill more than a revolution would and has most definitely caused the deaths of billions more than any political-economic system has. This can't be disputed. While Marxism-Leninism and ML governments have killed people for their own reasons, every leftist and everyone who can sense the situation presented to them will understand that capitalism kills more than Marxist-Leninist governments ever could.
