Marxism-Ioism

Marxism-Ioism was the ideology of Io during their first moments as a political radical (around 2019), it is laicist, progressive, socialist and democratic, believing that the working classes should take down the capitalist order and install a socialist democracy in its place, it is also pan-american and defines socialism as the decommodification and the seizing of the means of production.

Revolution and Reform
Marxism-Ioism believes that capitalist order will not capitulate to peaceful reform, and so the proletariat, organized through worker syndicates and other organizations should come together under an united front and through a violent revolution overthrow capitalism. However while capitalism will only be destroyed through revolution it still views it as important to participate in the liberal democratic process under a left-wing populist agenda not just to advance the cause of communism through advocating using a national platform, but also through passing "harm reduction" reform that though may not be based on communist or even socialist ideals can temporally reduce the worst excess of the capitalist system, in this Marxism-Ioism is very pragmatic.

The State
Marxism-Ioism is very libertarian and despises vanguardist socialists and proposes instead a communist system based on liberal democratic political institutions with strong influence of worker syndicates. The State itself would be a Federative Presidential Republic with much of the same branches that a liberal democracy has, and the politics themselves would still be done through a party system, with different socialist and communist parties competing for power, while the material conditions of such a communist country would make it so there would only be a few "Capitalist Parties" that would be much in the same position as Communist Parties in liberal democracies, if they even exist at all. Authoritarianism would be limited by governing institutions and people would be generally free to handle their lifes as they wish, as long as they don't hurt anyone else or encroach in anyone else's space, criticizing the state and such would be permitted and even motivated.

The Economy
Marxism-Ioism views socialism as worker ownership of the means of production and decommodification, as such, to achieve socialism, the economy would be entirely worker owned, with worker-owned enterprises competing freely for capital, although that capital wouldn't be needed for any resource that is necessary for the maintance of life as those would all be commonly owned.

Foreign Policy and Nationalism
Marxism-Ioism opposes nationalism as a reactionary force and believes instead that socialist countries should "unionize" to better negotiate with capitalist global north countries, Latin America specifically should grow closer together, and not only oppose the imperialist US but also other centers of global power and instead unite to become their own global power, though this wouldn't necessarily mean politically uniting as one country, an arrangement such as the EU would be the minimum.

Guide
Making an Ioverse ideology to match every ideology in TNO for fun. (only two of those -this one and the socialist one- represents something i actually believed in at some point in time, the rest are just goofs)
