Old Guard Mutualism

Old Guard Mutualism is a child of Mutualism and Purple Distributism (just a female offspring of Distributism, no ideological differences at all), and his ideals were highly influenced by his older sister, Anarcho-Distributism, and inhabits a spot on the Libertarian left. He is a culturally conservative and economically market socialist ideology. He puts a strong emphasis on traditional family values and hard work through cooperatives and mutuals. He is basically Mutualism but conservative, with an adherence to Catholic biblical values, and a taste for agrarianism, more specifically agrarian socialism. He believes that cooperatives should be set up like in regular Mutualism, but property should be owned by those in the cooperative and distributed among the members of the cooperative, like his sister, Anarcho-Distributism. He also believes that socialism is the only viable option for these agrarian cooperatives, like his mutalist father, and very strongly identifies with the economic far left. Sadly, because of his conservative social views, pro-agrarian stance, somewhat tolerant property views and pro-market socialist economy, he is alienated from his fellow socialists in most instances. He wants to return to a simpler time, and is in favor of de-urbanization, and returning to farms and large work properties. He also adores Pope Francis, and the teachings of Pope XIII and Pope Pius XI. He is ok with some forms of property, such as farms, as long as people in the cooperative own them and work on them, which Mutualism hates about him, but his mother, Purple Distributism, adores. He is more culturally moderate than his brother, Traditional Mutualism, and is absolutely terrified by his cousin, Reactionary Mutualism, who he sees as taking conservatism WAY too far, and not being focused enough on workers rights or socialism.

Friends

 * Anarcho-Distributism- My older sister! She really influenced my thinking, and I love her, even if I ended more like my Father, and she ended up more like my Mother.
 * Mutualism-My Father, who taught me about socialism, markets, cooperatives and labor values. He's an atheist, and hates property, but I love him just as much as my mom, and nothing will change that.
 * Purple Distributism- My Mother, who taught me about the Catholic Church, the distribution of property, and biblical traditional values. We may not agree on socialism, but I love her with all my heart, and at least she is a bit more pro-socialist than her dad, Distributism.
 * Agrarian Socialism- One of my closest friends. We are very, very similar, but I have an emphasis on traditional family values, and a very strong emphasis on mutualism as an economy, while he focuses more on the agrarian aspect, which is great too!
 * Market Socialism-Good friend of mine. He influenced my economy a TON. But, buddy, drop the state, ok?
 * Catholic Church- I am loyal to the Vicar of Christ, but you are very statist.

Frenemies

 * Distributism- My grandad, who I love, but he is way too anti-socialist and statist. Still, we share a lot in common.
 * Anarcho-Syndicalism- I like worker unions, don't get me wrong, but it isn't an end, we need mutual communities as a final goal. You are way too progressive as well. And stop being so anti-market.
 * Anarcho-Communism- Similar to above, but communism and collectivism will only lead to the destruction of culture. We need the individual to feel like part of a community, not a hivemind. Also, WAAAAAAAAY to progressive and anti-market. Stop calling me a fake socialist!
 * Conservatism- I like you, but you gotta drop the state and become a socialist.
 * Conservative Socialism- Much better! But drop the state.
 * Agrarianism- You could be greater, yet for some reason, you're a capitalist.
