Sam Galindo Thought is the ideology of Sam Galindo. It is civically slightly authoritarian, economically left, and culturally progressive. He supports a planned economy programmed by artificial intelligence, economic democracy, literacy programs for the poor, progressive cultural values, labor rights, alter-globalization, left unity, anti-fascism, right to bear arms, and direct democracy (as much as possible because of US sabotage).

He is against war, economic imperialism, the CIA, free market capitalism, nationalism (but willing to be flexible), neoliberalism, misogyny, racism, transphobia, economic sanctions, NAFTA, NATO, Putin, Israel, social democracy, liberal democracy, libertarianism, anarchism, and corporate globalism.

Economic planning with computers
I believe that a planned economy is the most intelligent way to manage an economy, as opposed to a market economy. Many of the issues that surround planned economies, such as human error in planning, can be mended with the assistance of artificial intelligence; as a result, I believe that a planned economy in the style of Salvador Allende's Project Cybersyn could be very beneficial to working people.

My main issue with the market is that it prioritizes exchange value over use value/utility - this is the reason why every year corporations produce more video game consoles than food for underprivileged people. Under market capitalism, companies are incentivized to produce commodities according to profit rather than human need, and this is why it almost always fails to deliver basic human needs for the working class.

The market economy fails to provide the working person with proper means of subsistence. Since labor power is a commodity, and money is a commodity, capitalist wage labor is nothing but an exchange of commodities. Since supply and demand are determined by market competition (greater competition between buyers leads to lesser competition amongst sellers and vice versa), wages (the primary means of subsistence for working people) is ultimately subject to the same chaotic laws of the market, which promote profit and exchange value over utility and human usefulness. Long-term economic planning is intended for commodity production according to human need, and only then will resources be rationally allocated.

 * Cybercommunism - Cockshott FTW
 * Allendism - I admire you a lot, although I think you should have been more careful with the American imperialists. Wish you would've lived longer, Cybersyn was incredible.

Mixed

 * Ancom - You've got the spirit, but please adopt a more scientific point of view.
 * Marxism-Leninism - I have a lot of respect for MLs, but respectfully disagree with a lot of what they say, especially about Stalin.
 * Libertarian Socialism - Same gripe with ancoms, too utopian and anti-communist.
 * Classical Liberalism - While I think that, historically, there is a lot to be learned and admired from the way you have captured the hearts of millions, you deserve to be left in the past because we have better ideas now.
 * Transhumanism - While I like the whole technology bit, I'm not into all that cyborg shit. I just want AI to assist economic planning, is all. Don't kill me.
