[[File:Dem.png]] Overview [[File:Dem.png]]
American Social Democracy is a. Believing that, democracy has shown itself to be the least worst system, at least compared to all other forms tried. And, that countries without democracy are bound to fail compared to those with democratic institutions.

Along with favoring  to our current system to make it more democratic and have an electorial system that is inclusive to more parties, and to fight corruption. He supports a constitutional  semi-presidential  federal  republic as his form of governmental system. Along with,  polyculturalism,  , and.
 * -|Governance =

[[File:Liberal_Democracy.png]] Liberal Democracy [[File:Liberal_Democracy.png]]
American Social Democracy prefers a government that is built for the common good for the people, and thus, a. Specifically, a. However, he wants to give the population more say in government, and thinks introducing policies that bring direct democracy into the government are a good idea. And, is supportive of a. Seeing it as the ultimate compromise between either a representative democracy, and a  direct democracy. So, Representatives should be largely responsible for governance, while citizens can have more autonomy through popular initiatives and referendums, ect. Along with this, he recongizes the importance of evidence based policies, seeing the rise of anti-intellectualism in our current political system to suit one's ideological needs as having disastrous effects for our current political climate, he believes that public policy should be influenced by.

However, while supporting republicanism, he is willing to tolerate  in countries were it exists. like in the Nordic Countries, as those can be important to define a country's culture, even if he doesn't personally support a monarchy, he wouldn't care if a country had or didn't have one in these instances, but wouldn't support implementing it in other countries that are already fully functioning republics. The only time he would ever go out of his way to abolish a monarchy is if the monarchy itself is oppressive.

With all of this, he realizes that a country needs to reach a level of economic development before democracy can be properly implemented in the country. So, in places were this would be the case, he would support  as a transitionary stage to develop the economic development necessary so said democracy can be properly built in said country. Although,  are cringe and should be avoided, he supports   in these cases, this would be rarely used though, keep in mind.

[[File:DefDem.png]] Defensive Democracy [[File:DefDem.png]]
American Social Democracy believes the government should actively protect its institutions from, as we cannot give them the freedom to tear down our democracy. This would function like a. If your party actively poses a threat to democracy, it shouldn't be included in government. Believing that freedom of assembly and speech has its limits, and where they use their voices to silence the voices of other people is enough to warrant this.

[[File:Semiprez.png]] Semi-Presidentialism [[File:Semiprez.png]]
American Social Democracy takes issues with the current  we currently have, believing that this system gives too much power to one person compared to a. He would seek to combine elements from both of these governmental systems to create a semi-presidential system, were a  president and a  separate parliamentary system co-exist in the government.

[[File:Civilib.png]] Civic Liberalism [[File:Civilib.png]]
American Social Democracy is, with his government operating under the civic ideas of. He's against mass survillence that is present within our current society, believing that the  in the United States hasn't been for the best interest of the people, but for the government to further its control over the general populace. He would enact reforms that. This would include revoking the patriot act, and getting rid of other unneeded spying programs. As, he believes the government should be big enough to protect the people from harm and keep them safe, but should also should respect the personal privacy of daily citizens lives. Because, he's not opposed to things like CCTV cameras in public places, as those can be useful for deterring things like  crime. But, the further expansion of these services to include wiretapping into people who aren't even greenlit for investigations and personal things like phone calls leads to the ever increasing authoritarianism in Western states, and is a severe breach of privacy. The government should be there for the people when it is legitimately needed, and must be centralized enough to  and , not making him civically  libertarian, but should also respect people's privacy and not intervene in the daily lives of citizens when it isn't necessary, not making him  authoritarian. So, this makes him a. He's critical of  and their inability to sustain themselves, with  Nestor Makhno's   being a prime example of this, it was a , in the same way he sees   being ran by a. With these groups wanting the same societies, but with the only difference being who you are being controlled by, he sees centrism as the most logical position to hold.

[[File:Secular.png]] Secularism [[File:Secular.png]]
American Social Democracy is against any religious organization playing a role in government, or the government subsidizing religious organizations through a tax exempt status. Which is why he seeks the complete separation of church and state. There will be a strong wall between church and state institutions, religion will be separated from things like schools and most religious references will be removed from our government. But, things like religious festivals and public holidays are fine, and the government will recognize the most practiced ones as the public holidays for the country. Anyone has the right to express any belief they want as long as they aren't harming others and no forms of public expression regarding religion will be banned.

He's opposed to, or  religious governance, as these systems are pretty authoritarian and surpress individual freedom. As well, he thinks that people who deny basic science based on their religious beliefs are very cringe, and only hold society back. And, in this regard, he holds distrust of, seeing as many third-world Islamic countries are riddled with  reactionaries  who use religion as a mean to further sentiment their rule, and how even  moderate Islam has been used to in the same vain as well. Not to say this doesn't apply to, but, Islam in the modern day holds more relevancy. However, this is not to say he's against the people who practice Islam, they should be allowed to follow their beliefs so long as they aren't harming other people.

Him, being a progressive atheist and a  secular liberal, firmly sides with the  secular left. This is due to his own personal beliefs being aligned with this group, and will support them against the influence of the. He sees their waning cultural influence as a good thing, as this group has been one of the greatest forces against.


 * -| Power Dispersal =

[[File:Constlib2.png]] Constitutionalism [[File:Constlib2.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the creation of a. The constitution will be interpreted as a living document and will be subject to change to fit the times. In this regard, he takes issue with the current constitution in our government, because it was written during a time that has long sense passed. He would write a new constitution to fit the modern day politics of the country.

[[File:Fed.png]] Federalism [[File:Fed.png]]
In terms of how the bureaucracy is administered, American Social Democracy prefers  compared to a , mainly due to how ineffective a unitary government would preform in the United States due to its size. He would recommend unitary governance is countries that are smaller and more homogeneous, but federalism in larger and more diverse countries. However, states governments have to abide by the national laws, and the constitution.

[[File:E-Democracy.png]] Electronic Voting [[File:E-Democracy.png]]
American Social Democracy believes we need to push forwards technology that allow us to vote via things like, a phone, computer, ect. He is a supporter of an  and the decentralization of information technology. However, realizing how vulnerable these methods are to outside influence, he opposes implementing these policies until we have the technology necessary to go through with it, but overall, he is supportive of the development of said technology. Voting via other methods will still be available and not be phased out. However, these policies would only be done on a local level, with things like national elections having to be done in-person or by mail.
 * -| Civil Servants =

[[File:Merit.png]] Civil Service Reform [[File:Merit.png]]
American Social Democracy seeks to abolish the electoral college, seeing it as nothing more than an relic of the past that is barely functioning the modern day, and is disproportionately effecting third parties ability to compete, contributing to the two party dictatorship and the further elitism within these parties. With the ever increasing amount of people being disillusioned by our system, and not identifying with either democrats or republicans, he views this as a system that has to go. His first reform would to replace the electoral college vote with the popular vote. His other reforms would be to abolish the senate, seeing it as nothing more than upholding the elitism within the government, and preventing a lot of necessary reform. Along with a ban on. These reforms he would propose would, along with his other reforms, strengthen American democracy, prevent, and give more people say in the government. As he believes our government shouldn't be for sale by massive corporations, it should be for the people, and make our overall system more meritocratic.

[[File:Anti-Corrupt.png]] Whistle Blowers [[File:Anti-Corrupt.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that people who expose government corruption shouldn't have to fear persecution, as the government and its institutions have a right to be  with the population that is being governed. And, that any functioning democracy should work on ridding itself of corrupt officials in office. There would be an anti-corruption agency that would serve this purpose.


 * -| Immigration =

[[File:Civnat.png]] Immigration [[File:Civnat.png]]
American Social Democracy's stance on immigration largely depends on the context of the country. But, in the United States, he takes a pro-immigration stance, and is in favor of liberalizing immigration, as immigrants help contribute to the labor force that is slowly shrinking each decade as America's population continues to age, while the birth rate declines. So, it's better to use this wave of mass immigration to our benefit. With addition to this, he supports giving illegal immigrants a legal pathway to citizenship. However, there will be a wait list where the immigrants have to be assimilated values before they can access any of the government programs, such as the. He also thinks it helps contribute to maintaining the, as seen in the. However, with less racism. Along with it being less destructive to the progressive movement, as cultures that do not tolerate our values will not peacefully coexist with us or a progressive culture.

In terms of how refugees will be handled, while he does support raising the cap of refugees that are taken in, as the United States has the capacity to handle them, he also realizes that some of the refugees we take in come from cultures that have arisen in societies that have backwards ways of thinking and hold anti-progressive and anti-western views. So, from war torn places like Syria, we should be prioritizing who is going to benefit our country most and tightly vet them, but, outside of that, they can come into our country so long as they don't cause trouble for anyone else in society.

[[File:Intercult.png]] Interculturalism [[File:Intercult.png]]
American Social Democracy supports  as an alternative to   or. The former being a mishmash of cultures that will erase our national identity and undermine the social cohesion needed for a social democratic state, while the latter being too exclusionary to foreigners and causing people to not be accepting of people's differences. So, it allows for diversity at the local level, while still allowing for a shared sense of national identity. The type of intercultural model he supports is the polycultural model, different cultures in society should stress the similarities instead of the differences between each group to ensure societal stability. This allows for each culture within society to have common values between each culture that hold them together, while all of them having the national identity as one unifying thing between all the cultures in society, thus, still maintaining a diverse local culture.

[[File:Socdem.png]] Overview [[File:Socdem.png]]
American Social Democracy's economic model is mainly modelled after. He primarily believes in  to protect the interests of consumers and fix failures in the market,   to fight for worker's rights, a , the creation of a   to redistribute wealth, a   to replace landlords under public land ownership, and wants to model an economy off of the business model of. He also takes many  on economics with this in-mind, he believes in policies that   to strengthen labor against   that threaten to weaken the power of labor unions in favor for , which only contribute to the current   neoliberal system. So, overall, he's your pretty average. He would classify himself as a left-wing social democrat with these views, as he adheres more to  classical social democratic economics seen during post-WW2 than he does with  right-wing social democrats which started to arise during the 1980's. He gets a lot of inspirations on economics from the   of the United States, and models his form of progressivism off of it with some adjustments for the modern day, along with western Europe and their ,  , and.

Despite his left-wing beliefs, he is skeptical of most forms of, believing that   has ultimately shown itself to be the best economic system in most of its forms, with having the longest longevity compared to such economic systems. In spite of this, he believes that numerous  are necessary to keep this success, and to make the economy work for everyone. Taxation & Spending =

[[File:Keynes.png]] Fiscal Policy [[File:Keynes.png]]
American Social Democracy subscribes to, he believes that the government should actively take a hand in the market and create fiscal programs that increase spending to boost growth in the economy. Supporting increases of spending during times of crisis to dampen the damage done during said crisis, to recover the economy. The type of keynesian economic branch he subscribes to would be closest to that of.

[[File:Univhealth.png]] Healthcare [[File:Univhealth.png]]
American Social Democracy is supportive of a Universal Healthcare system, believing that it is detrimental to the nation to have people who cannot afford to pay for healthcare to be indebted just because they cannot pay. With the current healthcare system we have being more expensive with providing less coverage than it if it was just universal. He defends healthcare acts like Obamacare that expand healthcare coverage for people, but would prefer to transfer them into a universal healthcare system. Private healthcare options would still exist, as luxury for those who choose it, with the universal healthcare being the main option. However, preventable self-inflicted injuries such as drug abuse or being unvaccinated will not be covered, and that will directly come out of insurance or pocket.

[[File:Social_corpratism.png]] Mode of Production [[File:Social_corpratism.png]]
American Social Democracy's mode of production would combines elements from  and. He believes that the government should have its share in the market through  in sections of the economy that are naturally monopolistic, such as railways and electric grids. And, in sections of the private sector as well, which will compete with businesses within the market to guide the economy. These SOE's would be invested into through a sovereign wealth fund.

He advocates for  over , seeing as classes do provide a benefit to society. And as such, the state should  to negotiate terms, with the state acting as a mediator between the two, seeing it as the best way to abolish class conflict.

[[File:Welf.png]] Welfare State [[File:Welf.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that the state should play a paternal role in one's life in terms of economics, to provide for the people, actively redistribute wealth, and promote equality of opportunity. With this, he is supportive of the, and for the government to provide for goods and services to the people. He favors a  as a way of redistribution of the wealth. Despite this, however, he isn't against private charities, and they will still exist. Given, they are certified to be a legitimate charity. As, he realizes the importance private charities play in both his life and the lives of many others, which would still be there. But, he prefers government solutions for redistributing income, seeing it as more effective.

[[File:Regulationism.png]] Taxation [[File:Regulationism.png]]
American Social Democracy favors high amounts of taxation to fund a  universal welfare state, and the upkeep in social services for the population. And, these taxes will better help achieve equality of opportunity .The list of taxes that would be introduced would include:


 * [[File:Georgist.png]] Land value tax - A Land Value Tax will be implemented to decommidify land to prevent land speculation and hoarding, the more land property you own, the more you get taxed for this land. Being a landlord will no longer be considered a job, and the land itself will be under public ownership through things like tenet unions.


 * [[File:EconProg.png]] Wealth tax - The rich will be significantly taxed more through a progressive tax system. But, we cannot rely on just taxing the rich alone, as that isn't sustainable towards funding a welfare state. There will be various other methods used to get the most out of wealth redistribution.


 * [[File:Soccap.png]] Value added tax - A VAT tax will be used, as they've shown to be better at raising funds. And, with the added benefit that they are less easier to dodge.


 * [[File:Envi.png]] Carbon tax - Taxing carbon emissions is important in the fight against climate change and to protect the environment. Pollutive industries of the economy will have a high carbon tax as a part of the environmental plan to develop new green technology and renewable energy.


 * [[File:Long.png]] Corporate tax - Corporate taxes should be relatively low to encourage business competition. a a sovereign wealth fund would be better for this purpose.


 * [[File:Protect.png]] Import duties - This is to protect vital industry from foreign competitors. But, how high or low the duty is were it depends on where the goods come from. Like say, from a country we are on good terms with that share our same labor standards, there would be significantly lower import duties. But, countries that are used by companies for cheap labor or those that politically threaten us would have significantly higher import duties to make those practices unprofitable, and protect the interest of American workers.


 * [[File:Krit.png]] Sales Tax - It's important we have a sales tax to promote safe and healthy products, these taxes will be low on healthy products, while being high on unhealthy products, such as junk food and soft drugs.

[[File:Corp.png]] Corporate Welfare [[File:Corp.png]]
Corporate welfare can be accurately described as "socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor", and should end. He is against bailing out firms that are deemed "too big to fail". If a business is "too big to fail", then it is too big to exist. Seeing it as contributing to  and favoritism within the economy. Were the wealth is being concentrated to the top one percent, with small businesses being left in the dust. He supports ending corporate welfare for big businesses. However, other forms of industry would still be subsidized, as he doesn't support ending corporate welfare entirely, just for those big businesses.


 * -| Business Models =

[[File:SyndieSam.png]] Unions [[File:SyndieSam.png]]
American Social Democracy supports, seeing the collapse of unions in the United States as disaster for both worker rights and the  progressive movement. So, in the labor market, there would be, viewing unions as a favorable means to achieve working rights, along with it being necessary for the  progressive movement to keep political power. Trade unions and how they would be organized would be through democratic representation. With state-owned unions and state-owned businesses making tripartite agreements even easier to ensure economic growth. However, he is skeptical of public unions, as their interests have often collided with the interests of society.

He is also against union busting, believing that it is unconstitutional. Only being allowed when there is legitimate reason to do so, like when the union in question doesn't have the best interest of the workers they are representing. And, he thinks that companies that partake in such practice should be severely punished.

[[File:Statesoc.png]] Nationalization [[File:Statesoc.png]]
American Social Democracy would nationalize general basic utilities, such as healthcare, water and electricity, education, libraries, and all that stuff. These state-owned enterprises would have state-owned unions that co-operate with the government for things like wage increases and worker's rights protections.

[[File:DvCoordination.png]] Hiring & Firing [[File:DvCoordination.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that at-will employment is overall negative due to it giving too much powers to the employer compared to the employee, as an employee can be fired for even the most ridiculous reasons. He supports mandating firms having a just cause when terminating a job from an employee. Along with this, being able to find new and better jobs should be a choice as well, so occupational licenses should be relaxed to improve people seeking job opportunities.

[[File:Farm.png]] Agriculture [[File:Farm.png]]
American Social Democracy recognizes the importance that  play in sustainable agriculture and the role they play in bringing access to healthy food. So, with this, he would promote family owned farms by taking away the corporate welfare that is given to big monopolies that do only not need these subsidies, but also actively squeeze out these small farmers. So, protecting consumer goods and breaking up these monopolies in this sector is important for the encouragement of sustainable agriculture and worker's rights. Farm subsidies should also be given to local producers to encourage local production.

[[File:Cap.png]] Small Business [[File:Cap.png]]
American Social Democracy believes it is important to, because small businesses are better for local communities, workers, and competition. So, there will be numerious policies that favor small businesses over big businesses. Aforementioned trade policies that prioritize the local economy over the  global economy,  strong anti-trust laws, and  taxing small businesses lightly to achieve a thriving local economy.

[[File:Cooperative Socialism.png]] Worker Co-operatives [[File:Cooperative Socialism.png]]
American Social Democracy defends, and believes that  worker co-ops as a business model have shown to be superior to other forms of traditional business models. And, is in favor of an economy which has its primary business model made up of worker co-ops. Medium to small-sized enterprises should be ran as worker co-operatives, although, this won't be enforced, as he realizes that an economy made up entirely up of this business model cannot sustain itself, and other forms of traditional business models will be allowed. This will be encouraged through things like tax breaks and subsidizes. Along with being a supporter of workplace democracy, as he believes that workers should be allowed to democratically control the workplace the workers work in. It will allow the workers to have more say in the production they produce, while not directly handing over the means of production to the workers. With the further democratization of the workplace and economic control given the workers via these means, this would ensure the

[[File:Plutocrat.png]] Wealth [[File:Plutocrat.png]]
American Social Democracy, while accepting the fact that people will be naturally richer than others, and that hierarchies will form as a result of this, seeks to counteract the harmful effects of wealth inequality with the creation of, this will further weaken the influence of   while redistributing wealth for our  social systems. However, he isn't opposed to billionaires existing, and realizes the benefits they have for our economy, but also realizes that. So, if they are to exist, they should fairly contribute to the economy in taxes, respect environmental regulations, not offshore their wealth in other countries for tax avoidance, and not outsource our jobs to countries with lower wages. The wealthy people that do partake in these practices should be severely punished, and have all their assets nationalized by the government

[[File:Statecap.png]] Sovereign Wealth Fund [[File:Statecap.png]]
American Social Democracy will utilitize as a sovereign wealth fund with his state-owned interprises. The state should invest into these SWF's to create budgetary surpluses for excess liqudity. He takes particular inspiration from Norway's wealth fund, being one the largest's ones in the world, he would seek to replicate this specific success. Because, resource management needs to be done properly so we can get the most investment out of our non-renewable resources while we still are able to utilize them.

[[File:NatProg.png]] Anti-Monopoly Laws [[File:NatProg.png]]
American Social Democracy supports breaking up massive monopolies. As everyone knows, it is not good to have monopolies dominating an economy. In this case, he would support bringing back the strong anti-trust laws that were present during the. Along with this, the CEO's of said companies shouldn't be allowed to own any shares in the companies that are broken up. It's not good for any economy to have huge businesses dominating the market, as it lowers the competitiveness and the ease of doing business in said economy, which is bad for economic output and growth of the economy.

[[File:Bankocracy.png]] Banking [[File:Bankocracy.png]]
American Social Democracy believes in the creation of a  to regulate the supply of monetary units, as if the banking sector fails, then that brings our economy down too. This will ensure the economic stability of our economy. However, private banks will still be allowed to exist, given under extensive regulation. And, how the banks and credit unions would be ran would be dependent on the size of said bank. The banking sector should be controlled by  to ensure that it stays effective.

[[File:Georgist.png]] Housing [[File:Georgist.png]]
On housing, American Social Democracy views housing as a basic human right. And believes that this is were the market fails the most. He wishes to establish a  to replace. He supports municipal ownership. However, land value tax cannot be the only tax. As, the tax on its own wouldn't be enough to fund welfare programs. But, the reveune generated from this tax would contribute to the welfare state, making him a.

With zoning laws, he would relax single-family zoning to allow for the development of  income housing, which is more mixed for home buyers with different types of income. As, the housing crisis that this country is facing is causing social instability. He doesn't believe it makes a whole lot of sense to regulate land use. The land value tax coupled with the liberalization of zoning laws would fight off land speculation and.

[[File:Social-ism.png]] Employment [[File:Social-ism.png]]
American Social Democracy wishes to combat unemployment through active labor market policies, which are policies that are handled through government programs for the specific purpose of getting people employed in the labor market. Such policies would include things like welfare to work, as he's not a fan of a  job guarantee because of it essentially just being  workfare. A person shouldn't be forced to work to gain welfare benefits, along with it being more flexible. Ideally, the unemployment rate should be somewhere around 5 - 6%.
 * -| Currency =

[[File:Soccap.png]] Currency [[File:Soccap.png]]
American Social Democracy's currency will be the United States Dollar, as his ideology is based in the United States. He believes in monetary and fiscal policies that stabilize the currency, such as the DSGE. His optimal inflation rate should be around 2% annually, which should lead to optimal rate of growth and unemployment.

[[File:EconProg.png]] Wages [[File:EconProg.png]]
American Social Democracy supports wage labor, vieiwing the  labor theory of value as more exploitive than paying employees by how much hours they work. Minimum wage would be adjusted with yearly inflation, the wages themselves being different for each job field you want to be employed in. The base line standard being a wage that allows you provide for yourself at the bare minimum, with states adjusting it to fit the needs of their population retrospectively. He views yearly increases in minimum wage as necessary for defeating economic inequality, which is why he views the stagnating wages in the United States as disastrous, as wages stagnating has caused wealth inequality for all groups of people to rise, along with contributing to racial and gender pay gaps.


 * -| Trade =

[[File:Protect.png]] Trade [[File:Protect.png]]
American Social Democracy advocates for a  that protects our jobs and makes sure the products coming into our country respect human rights and labor standards. He is opposed to  because job outsourcing has caused our  manufacturing industry and  trade union movement to dissipate. Subsequently, being destructive for the progressive movement and contributing to the   we are living in now, which has created a system that concentrates all of the wealth into massive corporations, leaving local economies to slowly die. This has caused  to compromise their   for , as can be seen with the rise of   during the 1980's, which has taken over the center-left parties in the West. While at the same time, he is opposed to  because it has always lead to economic stagnation. With this, he supports, while supporting. As, he realizes that most countries cannot survive off of pure self-sufficiency, and protectionist policies have often lead to things like wars and the destruction of entire economies, but the need for a healthy balance is also present to benefit the working class and small business owners.

He encourages developing countries to form  that rival both eastern and western powers, as a way to keep both of the blocs from exploiting them. This would improve things like wages and environmental protections for said countries, with the added benefit of not being too reliant on either bloc.

[[File:Indust.png]] National Production [[File:Indust.png]]
The  is a joke compared to what it could be if we actually tried to prop up the American manufacturing industry. American Social Democracy seeks to make America more self-reliant country, as the United States is one of the rare countries that could be more self-reliant and still achieve a decent standard of living. Things like our phones and cars should be encouraged to be made here by American manufacturers, as we need to be more self-reliant against cheap imports that lower our wages and cost us our jobs, which has killed the monster that could be the manufacturing industry of the United States just to reduce product goods for massive corporations.

[[File:Indiv.png]] Overview [[File:Indiv.png]]
American Social Democracy is a  ideology, supporting many   that achieve societal egatiliarianism. While at the same time, he's skeptical of the more radical concepts like  and self-identification, making him a  moderate progressive. He disowns the woke culture that is associated with modern day progressivism, with things like political correctness and identity politics. His form of progressivism would uphold  while not being regressive in the ways he just mentioned, since it is one of the core elements of. He would be a  when it comes to cultural extremism, seeing the   as no different from the , regarding both of these groups as equally cringe.

He's critical of the  for being just as dogmatic as the   in the United States, with both sides being focused on victim blaming each other over actual policies that help people, and prefers to focus on economic issues than social issues. But, on the social issues themselves, he supports LGBT acceptance,  societal secularization,  abortion rights, ,  ,  drug decriminalization,  ,  ,  racial equality, ect.

So, his general ideas reflect individualism, stemming from his   on personal freedom and his , so long as something isn't breaking the  , he doesn't care, people should be allowed to do what they want in this regard, making him a  cultural liberal. He believes in extensive, like  sexual freedom,  right to privacy,  freedom of movement, the  right to free speech and assembly, and the  right to die.

These cultural views could be described as being a dirtbag leftist and an , being opposed to  woke leftists who force things like identity politics and political correctness onto people, but being opposed to most forms of  social conservatism, as conservatism is an anti-individualist ideology in the same way elements of progressivism that were just mentioned are.

Gender & Sex =

[[File:Gay.png]] LGBT [[File:Gay.png]]
American Social Democracy's stance on  largely stims from his  individualist stances on culture. They can have their rights legally protected for things like marriage, adoption, anti-discrimination laws, and can have the same rights as heterosexuals. So, as people, they should be looked upon equally towards that of heterosexual people so long as they aren't harming other people and protected from hate crimes, as it's wrong to give people fewer rights over factors they couldn't control because they were born with it. However, the distinction between regular LGBT people and the  should be made clear, as while he supports gay rights, he is opposed to the movement and what it propagates, not out of any traditional values, but because it pushes identity politics and other woke ideas onto people, which is propagated by. Seeing pride as a neoliberal tool, he naturally opposes it. So, both pride (yes, this includes straight pride as well, as identity politics are degenerate no matter whose doing it) and homophobia should be looked down upon. Will there be any restrictions on such events relating to LGBT Pride? There will be some restrictions put on to these events, mostly to prevent things like public displays of nudity and other things like that, although they will be allowed given under some regulations, but not banned. Although, he would prefer for the replacement of these events with other events that do not rely on identity politics that bring people together in the same way, because he does realize the usefulness of the idea of pride month, but thinks how its done is not good. Preferably, this topic should be, as the mere mentioning of this issue causes toxic rants to arise from both its supporters and opposers.

And, to address the transgender issue, his stance on them is what he said previously about LGBT people, he doesn't care about them or their sexuality. Both transphobia and trans pride should be looked down upon equally. So, while he will recognize them by their gender they choose to transition to, the conditions for that are: having to have gone through actual gender dysphoria, not being flamboyant about such, and being of legal age to have gone through such procedures. However, despite healthcare services being offered, there will be some restrictions put onto gender reaffirming healthcare to prevent such dangers from happening relating to such procedures. But, it will be provided by healthcare givers because it is a form of healthcare. Additionally, while he believes they should be allowed to participate in sports they choose, he also believes in balancing societal inclusion of them and keeping the integrity of said sports in-tack, so there would be regulations in place to ensure the mutual respect for both of these. He's skeptical of the more radical concepts like gender fluidness and self-identification. Gender transitioning from MtF and FtM will be recognized, as that is real, there are only two genders, so they will be allowed to change their gender within the two gender binary, things like gender fluidness and gender neutral pronouns will not be recognized. He will recognize the sexualities that exist, Gay,  Straight,  Lesbian,  Transgender,  Bisexual, and  Asexual. And, while he recognizes that Intersex people exist, that will not counted as a separate gender. and  will not be legally recognized.

[[File:Fem.png]] Feminism [[File:Fem.png]]
American Social Democracy is a, and a staunch supporter of women's rights. He's against, seeing them as a product of society, and not that of nature. Thinking it's best that women break free from the constraints of them, as this would ultimately contribute to a society were women are more free to decide their own paths in life, along with men being disadvantaged by these roles as well, it ultimately helps both sexes. There is no fundamental difference between a man and a women, both should sexes be treated the same and dealt the same punishes and rewards. However, he's critical of modern  in the United States because of focuses too much on things  intersectional identity politics that enforces the narrative onto women that society is everything to blame for their shortcomings, when they just don't want to improve and keep victim blaming, which encourages a toxic mindset onto people. So, his preferred form of feminism would combine elements from,  ,  , and   that focuses on the equality of both sexes without the    or. Along with this, he would be a sex-positive feminist, rejecting the idea that things like pornography are sexist, and believes that feminism is a central component towards  sexual freedom. However, the age of consent is 18, and things like child pornography are sex crimes no matter if it's drawn or not, and that will still stay, as only legally consenting adults can partake in such actions.

He opposes the idea that gender is a non-binary thing, and supports the two gender binary classification, being  and. However, as he previously stated, he rejects  that women have to be homemakers whose only purposes are to make babies and be housewives, in the same way he rejects the idea that men have to work and provide financially.

Furthermore, he is against affirmative action, as it as the employers decision to hire based on  merit, instead of things like gender, race, ect. Seeing it as promoting discrimination that it seeks to fight, and pushes victim blaming onto people for how they were born. Technology =

[[File:Modtransh.png]] Technology [[File:Modtransh.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the development of green technology to combat climate change, along with being supportive of   in terms of things like job automation, as if it is to happen, then that money should go to  social programs to combat the unemployment caused by job automation. However, he can't consider himself a transhumanist because of many reasons. But, he opposes those who think that technological development is bad. So, he's an overall technological moderate, realizing the both good and bad of technological development. He's skeptical of concepts like  for the same reasons.

[[File:Space.png]] Space Colonization [[File:Space.png]]
As a long term goal, American Social Democracy sees space colonization as something that needs to happen. Because, once we run out of the finite resources we have here on earth, we will naturally need to go to other planets to extract them. Not just that, space here on earth for humans is also finite as well. And, while this is unfeasible now, he sees it as a feasibility in the future, even if it takes a couple thousand years from this point forward, he sees it as necessary stepping ground for humanity to outgrow the planet we originally evolved on.

[[File:Cybercom.png]] Artificial Intelligence [[File:Cybercom.png]]
American Social Democracy isn't opposed to artificial intelligence, but thinks some of the societal fears around AI is justified. This is because advanced AI has allowed massive corporations to farm user's data at a mass scale and has created social manipulation by eroding privacy through such practices. So, his attitudes towards AI cautious in this sense, although he sees it as a good tool for the creation of a.

[[File:FDF-Pirate.png]] Copyright Reform [[File:FDF-Pirate.png]]
American Social Democracy is supportive of, as he believes the current copyright system gives all the power to massive corporations while stifling innovation in the market, which creates a system where these multinational corporations can infinitely extend the copyright of their works to keep them from going into the public domain. Along with how these tech companies mass farm users internet data just to increase their already massive profit margins, which creates many issues in of itself, and just the fact that it is unethical to do that.

[[File:MegaCorp.png]] Big Tech [[File:MegaCorp.png]]
American Social Democracy believes it's important to tackle the power of big technology companies, seeing them as being exploitive, tax evading, data thieves, that directly perpetuate this meaningless culture war. He supports taking away for their corporate welfare benefits like he previously stated in his economic section, and along with directly breaking up their influence for the promotion of alternative social media that do not promote the culture war, as well with promoting policies that raise public awareness through things like campaigns and the development of open source original software. He views this sector of the economy as being particularly egregious for these reasons he just mentioned, the need to create smaller technology companies that follow the worker co-operate business model is desperately needed.

Civil Liberties =

[[File:Pro-ChoiceRemade.png]] Abortion [[File:Pro-ChoiceRemade.png]]
American Social Democracy is pro-choice, largely stemming from his  individualist stances on  personal freedom, which come from his  utilitarian ethics. He sees the ultimate choice lying with the mother, and the government having no authority to regulate the behavior of individuals. As, the  is a right everyone deserves, and the limiting of abortion rights interferes with said right to privacy. Along with the obvious thing being that abortion isn't murder because the fetus is a bundle of cells, so it doesn't make any sense to limit abortion rights anyways when banning stuff doesn't equal problem solved and has worse effects for society than if it was just legalized. And, as such, is for the liberalization of reproductive rights. Seeing as, a mother that bears a child she cannot financially support will strain our welfare services further, which will be detrimental to the. With all of this, he sees the overturning of Roe v. Wade as a disaster that not only represents an undemocratic supreme court, but a decision that has wasted decades of civil rights progress, and hopes that abortion rights get reinstated in the future.

He could be described as a  in this regard, he admires how  Iceland has effectively eliminated conditions like down syndrome with their abortion measures. He believes pre-natal screening of fetuses should be allowed because it is the Mother's choice at the end of the day, and if she brings a baby into the world that will live a below average life because of some condition like down syndrome or autism that will burden both the Mother and society, then she should be allowed to terminate such pregnancy if she chooses, as it's about avoiding human suffering which follows his  utilitarianism, he applies this same logic to euthanasia. So, he would describe himself as a, believing it's not only natural, but good that undesirable traits are selectively breaded out throughout the population, this method should be used to improve the traits of human beings in society. However, this form obviously differs from Nazi eugenics, as he believes this should be entirely optional, and doesn't believe those with disabilities in society are worth less than those who don't have such conditions, but believes that these conditions should be prevented through such passive methods to prevent suffering these conditions cause in society.

[[File:Libertarian.png]] Right to Privacy [[File:Libertarian.png]]
American Social Democracy is a staunch defender of the right to privacy and self-responsibility, he sees how world governments have become   as paradoxical. He's fundamentally opposed to anything that challenges this right, since it is one of his core elements in his philosophy, being individual responsibility. So, he naturally believes in  which gives the person as much freedom from the government as possible to live out their life how they seek fit, and will support policies that give us more societal freedoms, making him against most forms of  paternalism. Only making expects in specific cases were it is actually justified, he's against the state intervening on behalf of the citizen's life when they are not doing anything that is harming others outside of these cases.

[[File:FreeSpeak.png]] Freedom of Speech [[File:FreeSpeak.png]]
American Social Democracy supports freedom of speech, seeing it as necessary for a country to keep the market place of ideas running. However, there will be notable restrictions on freedom of speech, such as things like defamation, hate groups, and protecting the public welfare of citizens. So, he's not a free speech absolutist, and while he doesn't believe there should be restrictions on hate speech, he realizes that a world were all ideas are tolerated is one where the intolerant would destroy the tolerant, but overall, there won't be a whole lot of restrictions on freedom of speech. He would prefer to use social ostrocism to counter  movements  than government censorship. So, he is against hate speech laws, seeing them are inherently coercive to civil liberties, and not actually protecting the people said laws seek to protect the people that they are aimed towards. He does, however, hold a couple of exemptions with this view. Like in Germany for example, where it is a crime to deny  the holocaust, given the context of what happened in that region and where it happened, that should indefinitely stay a crime. But, he dislikes how the governments where laws like these are implemented go overboard with these laws as well, so he would loosen up those laws so they're not as strict. But, not eliminating them. So, outside of this few specific circumstances were these laws happen to be in some countries, he would oppose implementing them in other countries.

[[File:Egirl.png]] Pornography and Prostitution [[File:Egirl.png]]
American Social Democracy is very much for sexual liberation, he sees it as one's  fundamental freedom to do what they want to do with their body, and is a form of   that doesn't harm anyone. So, he is against most censorship of media relating to pornography, and would legalize/decriminalize it where it is illegalized, Not seeing any point in trying to criminalize something that is hard to crackdown on that can have an industry which contributes billions of dollars to the economy that could be used for things like government programs, with the war on drugs being a great example of this. He's opposed to the Anti-Porn movement, thinking it's even stupider and pointless than the prohibition movement before it. However, as stated on the feminist section, the age of consent is 18, and production of child pornography, whether if it's drawn or not, is illegal as it is a sex crime. However, laws on softcore pornography will be more lax, and should be legally viewable for people who are 16 and over, while hardcore pornography stays at 18.

With this, he would legalize prostitution, because sex work is real work and it would make it easier for people involved in the industry to unionize and fight for better working conditions, which creates a safer environment for people want to be involved in such practices with the added benefit of being able to profit off of said services for government expenditures.

[[File:Virus total.png]] Mandates & Lockdowns [[File:Virus total.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that vaccine mandates are important to secure public safety and interests, and is both pro-vaccine and pro-mandate. However, he opposes the draconian lockdowns imposed during the pandemic. While he believes these orders imposed during the pandemic when it started before there was any vaccine developed were good intentioned and necessary to prevent the deaths of millions of people before a vaccine could be developed, he also believes these have greatly expanded state power who use this as an excuse to abuse it for their own gain after such measures are no longer necessary, such as with China's Zero-COVID Policy. So, he's pro-vaccine, anti-lockdown, but these are largely context dependent as well, keep in mind.

[[File:OOTS.png]] Euthanasia [[File:OOTS.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the legalization of euthanasia, both involuntarily and voluntarily. If a mentally ill person chooses to voluntary end their own life, then that is their choice and their choice alone, seeing the right to die as essential to bodily autonomy, and for it to not only be immoral because of the human suffering it causes, but also cost ineffective as well, as tax money shouldn't go towards people who choose to voluntary end their own lives.

[[File:GRights.png]] Gun Rights [[File:GRights.png]]
American Social Democracy is neither pro-gun or anti-gun, he believes that people should be allowed to own guns, given they have no criminal back round. But, with this, he is a supporter of gun control, and believes in expanding things like backround checks and ect to make sure bad actors cannot get their hands on guns, which is what could be seen for the extensive gun violence problem this country faces due to the permissive gun laws of some of the states. And, while not wanting to outright ban weapons that are deemed "for war" like assault rifles, he wants extensive regulations on them, and should be made really difficult to get. Seeing as the majority of people will never own these types of fire arms, but still believing that people who want to own them and can actually afford them should be allowed to own them. Cultural =

[[File:Cball-CSA.png]] Confederate Statues [[File:Cball-CSA.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the tearing down of, they were traitors that succeeded from this country and represent  white supremacy, which shouldn't be glorified. Any self-described patriot should support the dismantling of the confederate statues, along with banning the confederate flag from being displayed on things like government property and discouraging the symbols for being used as a representation of the South. However, the statues being taken down should be done with context as well, so he opposes the tearing down of statues like presidents, but statues that specifically glorify the confederacy in a racist matter should be taken down, and ideally, replaced with statues of slave abolitionists.

[[File:Mediastocracy_flair.png]] News and Media [[File:Mediastocracy_flair.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that mainstream media is a decisive tool that has allowed for corporate money to stay on top, with the population being ever so clueless about alternative options, or the way they are being manipluated. Despite this, he thinks bringing back the Fairness Doctrine wouldn't do a whole lot to counteract this problem, mainly due to it being in a time period where it could actually be enforced. A better solution would to directly break up the hegemony of corporate media.

[[File:DvPermission.png]] Permissive Society [[File:DvPermission.png]]
American Social Democracy defends a. And, believes that as long as an individual's lifestyle doesn't violate the, then no government or community should be allowed to impose a specific lifestyle onto individuals. With this, he would decriminalize most victimless crimes, seeing no point in enforcing a law that cannot be enforced effectively, with it not making any sense to waste law enforcement resources on things that can be easily regulated to earn untapped money which could be used for things like government programs. As, societies that have  have higher rates of  egalitarianism in many fields, so it contributes to a more happier society overall.

[[File:Indiv.png]] Cultural Individualism [[File:Indiv.png]]
American Social Democracy is a cultural individualist, he personally doesn't care what anyone else does so long as it doesn't break his utilitarian moral code and the harm principle, this is in-line with this   views, he believes anyone can do whatever they want in most instances, regardless if he personally finds it disgusting, making him  culturally liberal. As, he recognizes that people have different lifestyles that fit their own needs, and to force people to adopt other's moral codes is not only dumb, but ironically, an immoral expectation itself. So, while there will be societal moral codes, these moral codes themselves will be very loose, with the only rule being to not harm other people, and some other specific things he doesn't care to personally cover.

[[File:Scientocracy_Small.png]] Education [[File:Scientocracy_Small.png]]
American Social Democracy believes our education system is in desperate need of reform. And, that education should be free from K-12, with college tuition being free as well, seeing tuition fees as stupid. With how things are taught, he is in favor of impartially, as things like History shouldn't be taught through a nationalistic lens. Public schools will be secular and based on  humanism. On the topic of LGBT, he's opposed to teaching topics relating about sex & gender to children, but also believes things like bullying are wrong as well, so he supports laws that prohibit discriminate against students based on their sexual orientation and gender identity in public schools. He also has disagreements with bills like the "don't say gay" bill, he supports neutral and objective social education, not preferring it to be banned or mandatory.

In terms of schools and how they are administered, he believes that there should be a mix of private and public schools, with private schools as luxury, but shouldn't be funded through things like vouchers. With the attention going to meeting the upkeep of public schools.

[[File:Laicism.png]] Cultural Secularism [[File:Laicism.png]]
American Social Democracy, despite being a, is skeptical of the influence of  organized religion on society and a  cultural religion, because these cultural influences have been used to suppress  individual rights and liberties. Being against these cultural influences for these reasons, this would make him an anti-clericalist, taking an  anti-religious stance towards its cultural influences. He sees organized religion as corrupt and self-serving, with everything else he just mentioned, he would prefer for societal ethics to be based off of secular ones, and believes that the decline of organized religion has been largely beneficial for society. His ideal society would be one were religion itself has very little societal influences present, and 70% or more of the population identifies as irreligious. However, he's contempt with what he calls "neo-secularism", which just means that while society may not be largely irreligious, the religious beliefs themselves are modernized and church influence has next to no cultural influence on the population. He would build up a movement specifically designed at countering regressive forces like the Christian right in our political sphere. However, while he specifically wants to counter these influences, he's also aware of atheists who hate on religion just because it's religion, which he specifically disowns, although they are preferable to what he just mentioned, not desirable and should be discouraged as well. He doesn't want to give rise to atheist fanatics in the same way he doesn't want to give rise to.

[[File:Enlightnenment.png]] Culture War [[File:Enlightnenment.png]]
American Social Democracy, being an, doesn't want to focus on  culture war issues too much, believing that these issues are propagated by   that are focused on pitting people up against each other for their own profit, which gets in the way of actual economic issues. However, on the actual culture war issues themselves, he's overall critical on how both  and   are too busy victim blaming each other than actual policy making.

On specific issues relating to the culture war, he's critical of the modern day left and its use of postmodernism because of its abandonment of   and the   of empirical evidence for an  obscurant view of the world that suits their ideological agendas. This can be seen how the new left tolerates backwards ideologies like Islamic fundamentalism through their endoursement of   for the sake of diversity. Along with the concept of gender fluidness, viewing the attempt to make gender a non-binary thing with the introduction of non-binary pronouns as an attempt to control what people can actually say through political correctness which creates the victimhood cult he mentioned. While those suffering from genuine gender dysphoria should be allowed to transition, live a normal life, and have their rights, he believes these attempts at transgender inclusion into society don't actually create any inclusion, if transgender people want to be treated normally, they should largely assimilate into greater society instead of trying to stand out to garner societal acceptance, as this only enables hatred of them as individuals. He's also critical of how the the left says they support free-speech, but only if it abides by their politically correct terms, using  cancel culture as a tactic to silence those they disagree with, while being a fragile face of civility that suppresses the  individual worth of people themselves.

With all of this considered, he's critical of  in the way same, as conservatives attack the civil rights of actual  gay people who want to live normal lives, with the   being a prime example of this, as they usually drop the T part of the LGBT since they've already gotten their rights like gay marriage. Along with attacking other civil right landmarks like abortion rights, and the  that are filled with ideological contradictions like  "Back the blue!", but also. Not to mention the, which is a movement that uses the same tactics as the SJW's they are fighting against, with things like straight pride. This is what he considers anti-woke wokeness, as both sides focus on basically the same things but with different goals and the same tactics.

He's quite frankly fed up with both groups, he would prefer to work with the progressive left on issues were it matters like abortion rights, but oppose other things they advocate for as a  towards achieving his political goals. Ideally, both these cultural influences should weaken and a more multiparty system would take its place, as both sides of  this debate act like obsessive retards, and have more in common than what they  think they have for the reasons he mentioned above.

[[File:Native.png]] Indigenous Rights [[File:Native.png]]
American Social Democracy is supportive of, he believes  imperialism in both the  modern day and historical context has destroyed their native cultures. Policies that give indigenous groups more autonomy over their land and improve their quality of life should be actively pursued. However, he absolutely despises how people suggest multiculturalism as a way of solving this issue, believing that it threatens to destroy their ways of life and creates the same issues it seeks to solve, he supports a more  intercultural approach, believing that they should at least adopt the   of the country.

[[File:NarcLib.png]] Drugs [[File:NarcLib.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that drug war was unilateral disaster that put many innocent lives in jail and only contributed to the prison industrial complex. He supports the Portuguese-style approach towards this issue. Seeing the results this had in portugal, drug decriminalization has had no real societal downsides. And, going hand-in-hand with his stances on individual autonomy, he supports the  complete decriminalization of all drugs, with soft drugs being completely legalized. Seeing as the "law" cannot even be enforced properly, it being a law in the first place is quite useless. Along with this, all non-violent drug offenders would be released from jail to free up law enforcement resources. However, there should be government programs available that encourage drug addicts to get off of drugs, and find healthier alternatives. As, drugs are a societal problem, not a legal problem. And, throwing people in jail for using these substances only furthers the core issues at heart.

[[File:Klep.png]] Criminal Justice Reform [[File:Klep.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that systemic racism is still well alive and present within the American justice system, despite how long we've come since Jim crow laws. And, as such, is a supporter of criminal justice reform. For police unions, he believes that police unions should still exist, but with their negotiating powers restricted. As, the importance of collective bargaining for cops is just as important for any job field, but realizes that the interests of society and police unions often collide, with it having been used to obscure criminal justice reform. With this, he would redirect wasteful spending to social programs. But, opposes the more radical notions of abolishing or defunding the police.

On prisoners and prisons, he opposes capital punishment, and believes that it should be outlawed in all the states. The justice system should focus on. With prisoners being allowed to vote once they've finished their prison sentence and have payed the price for their crimes. Along with the state having programs that aid convicts that are released to help them reintegrate into greater society. However, he realizes that some crimes are too bad to forgive. In this case, he would support punitive justice, but with the chance of parole. He opposes the, as privatized prisons are bad for a rehabilitative justice system were the private contractors are only encouraged to make money, and not help with the reintegration of prisoners into greater society and disregard their own wellbeing makes public safety and the wellbeing of society worse off. However, while he does support racial sensitivity training for police, he believes it shouldn't be based on, as said previous, it's a form of reverse discrimination. Environmental =

[[File:Envi.png]] Green Environmentalism [[File:Envi.png]]
American Social Democracy is a supporter of, he sees protection of the environment as upmost importance, as climate change is something that is not only very real, but something that actively threatens the lives of billions of people. He sees it as a necessary step to transitioning out of fossil fuels for the near future, along with the trade deals for our country needing to respect environmental standards, as  neoliberal capitalism has lead to the exploitation of the environment by creating a  race to the bottom, which causes businesses to disregard environmental standards for their own profit margins. The government must start subsidizing green alternatives to weaken the fossil fuel industry. and make a trasition towards nuclear power. Along with greater investments being put into, seeing it as a key factor in defeating climate change. Although, he would prefer for the government to just, were these state owned businesses would contribute to a sovereign wealth fund which would go to things like the welfare state and other government expenditures.

[[File:WaterEnvi.png]] Blue Environmentalism [[File:WaterEnvi.png]]
American Social Democracy is a supporter of  as well as  green environmentalism. There should be universal laws that apply to the environment of the ocean and other bodies of water. So, laws that regulate plastic, chemicals, and other things that get spilt into the ocean will be applied, among other things like coral reef protections.

[[File:Ecocap.png]] Sustainable Capitalism [[FIle:Ecocap.png]]
American Social Democracy seeks to establish what he calls, which means he supports policies that make sustainable practices while preserving the environment and reducing the externalities in a capitalist system. As, capitalism naturally needs markets to sustain itself, but it often in the process destroys the environment doing this, which is naturally not in the best interests of capitalists who seek to expand their business opportunities and keep them running in the long-run, as while it provides short-term profits, it will destroy future markets for them to expand into which will be felt in the future. So, the  are naturally within the best interests of capitol owners to invest in if their businesses are to survive the future, this is another way he would fund green technology as well.

[[File:Deepe.png]] Animal Rights [[File:Deepe.png]]
American Social Democracy supports animal rights. As, animals are living beings at the end of the day. And, while not on the same level as. He supports the the banning of most animal testing. As, animal testing isn't even guaranteed to produce good results, at the cost of inflicting unnecessary suffering to other living beings. He would also improve the living standards of animals being farmed for food, as the way they get treated is just excessively horrific. Although, he isn't going vegan, and doesn't expect anyone else to either. Race =

[[File:Equality.png]] Racial Egalitarianism [[File:Equality.png]]
American Social Democracy is against racial and/or  ethnic discrimination, viewing these as irrational and dangerous influences on society. Things like racial/ethnic discrimination should be looked down heavily, and shouldn't be a factor towards things like immigration. With this, he is a, seeing a country is defined by a common way of life and culture. So, he is favor of complete racial equality, seeing racial and ethnic inequality as determinantal to a country that should be actively fought. As, all men, regardless of their back round, are created equal, and are entitled to the same rights with due respect for their differences.

[[File:MLK.png]] Colorblind Society [[File:MLK.png]]
American Social Democracy, being against  and for  racial equality, hates how  modern progressives , because it is inherently discriminatory  | in the same way white nationalists do it, saying that people must do "this and that" based on identities like these are no different from groups like Neo-Nazis who obsess over the same things. So, he rejects an approach to solving systematic racism that relies on identity politics, viewing this as a form of reverse discrimination that is the exact same thing it tries to solve, because it judges people based on their traits like race and not on them as individuals.

With all of this, he used to support movements like  after George Floyd was murdered. However, he's critical of the current movement now as being filled with people who are obsessed with things like identity politics and harboring. As, the organization itself makes good points about police brutality that he does agree with, he disagrees with the approach, seeing these approaches towards fighting police brutality as not doing anything for actual racial equality. As well, he disavows the violence on both sides. So, he also opposes things like critical race theory and  alt-right racial theory, he supports a  colorblind society were people are judged based on their character instead of their ethnicity or race. He also opposes movements like, while the creator of this page holds vehement opposition towards all forms of reactionary and totalitarian ways of thinking, he sees the modern Antifa movement as being filled with activists who use the same tactics as the same fascists they claim to fight with things like free speech suppression and violence. His preferred form of opposition towards such movements are peaceful protests. He specifically takes inspiration from the left-wing paramilitary group iron front during the  Weimar Republic that resisted the   and. While he doesn't believe in curtailing freedom of speech and expression just because the opposition holds political views that he doesn't agree with, but still thinks these groups of people should be socially ostracized for their beliefs as to discourage the spread of such beliefs. So, he supports tougher punishments for hate crimes and crackdowns on groups like the.

[[File:Klep.png]] Criminal Justice Reform [[File:Klep.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that systemic racism is still well alive and present within the American justice system, despite how long we've come since Jim crow laws. And, as such, is a supporter of criminal justice reform. For police unions, he believes that police unions should still exist, but with their negotiating powers restricted. As, the importance of collective bargaining for cops is just as important for any job field, but realizes that the interests of society and police unions often collide, with it having been used to obscure criminal justice reform. With this, he would redirect wasteful spending to social programs. But, opposes the more radical notions of abolishing or defunding the police.

On prisoners and prisons, he opposes capital punishment, and believes that it should be outlawed in all the states. The justice system should focus on.

[[File:Blacknat.png]] Slavery Reparations [[File:Blacknat.png]]
American Social Democracy doesn't support slavery reparations, as they are largely unfeasible. And, even if they were feasible, he still wouldn't support them. As, nobody in the present day is responsible for slavery or the actions of their ancestors. But, he does have other solutions to these issues present, as he does realize the legacy of slavery and its consequences are still present within African-American communities, his police reforms and getting rid of discriminatory zoning laws that disproportionally effect groups within these regions would combat poverty and crime seen within these neighborhoods, as the socio-economic factors do still need to be accounted for as well, and developing those socio-economic factors needs to happen. Other Issues =

[[File:Reform.png]] Reformism [[File:Reform.png]]
American Social Democracy is a. And, in the context of liberal democracy,   would be used to achieve my ideological goals. Seeing as, revolutionary means of achieving ideological change has often resulted in complete failure. However, there are some exceptions to this, being, places were democratic reform isn't possible. In that case, he would support a revolution against the government. Some of these places would include,, , ,  , and other autocracies in the world that don't respect due process and political rights. With this, he's a firm supporter of  movements in countries fighting for political rights, he supports the ,  ,  ,  , and ect. Seeing these authoritarian regimes as shitty and oppressive, he supports anything that undermines their rule.

[[File:Autism.png]] Mental Health [[File:Autism.png]]
American Social Democracy, being on the autism spectrum himself, naturally supports mental health treatment for those who need it and cannot support themselves. However, while he supports mental health treatment, he also is critical of the societal approach people have towards these issues. He views conditions like Autism as over-diagnosed in our modern day society, with even showing the slightest of symptoms for such things leading to being diagnosed and labels like "high-functioning" being completely self-defeating. He also dislikes how these disorders are romanticized in our current culture as well, making it even more self-defeating, he's against things like politically correct terms and self-identification, seeing these as failing to create any inclusion towards society and more or less just downplaying the actual suffering of people who go through such mental health problems. Those with disabilities should be allowed to get the help that they need and have society's support, but he also feels as if people use it as an excuse not to do anything when they're more than capable of doing so, which in itself is a symptom of our current culture among other issues.

[[File:Youth.png]] Youth [[File:Youth.png]]
American Social Democracy is conflicted on  youth politics, having a likening of the   were politics were less important unlike now, as our current culture has allowed easily impretionable children towards political extremism through internet indoctrination that likely wouldn't have come if the climate wasn't like how it is now. However, he also realizes the importance of a political youth in combatting the  our government is. So, if things like politics are to be taught in things like schools and the youth is to be political, then it should be done in a neutral way that encourages students to pick their own beliefs while.

[[File:Health and Safetyf.png]] Public Health and Safety [[File:Health and Safetyf.png]]
For health crisis's like drugs or obesity, American Social Democracy doesn't think outright shaming the people themselves is a good idea, as it just leads to them being rejected by society without being able to integrate or easily get help. But, he also doesn't think these things should be idolized as well, the state should, but the state should never step in directly to correct the behavior of individuals themselves. He realizes the need for a paternalistic government for things like disasters such as pandemics for harm reduction, but when there isn't a serious harm to public health posed by an individuals lifestyle that directly harms other people, then the government should mostly lay off the general population. Things like sin taxes should still exist, as some milder forms of harm reduction that don't outright intervene in the daily lives of citizens are needed for society.

[[File:Multicult.png]] Identity Politics [[File:Multicult.png]]
American Social Democracy in-general avoids identity politics, and is something that he disapproves of. As, idpol propagates essentialist views of people's identity and promotes  particularism, which makes it inherently discriminatory. The focus on group identities completely undermines the individual needs of people, creating a culture of victimhood that causes people to push blame onto others while failing to improve their own individual worth, which leads to the abandonment of universal liberal values by the relativism it causes. He realizes that  of this   are guilty of doing this, and will call out both of them were its due. Because on the left, you have woke baizuos who focus on how oppressed black lesbian trans people are, and on the right, you have   and other forms of supremacist identity politics. He against both because he believes they suppress the individual worth of people. So, he opposes things like gay pride, straight pride, white pride, trans pride, black pride, whatever pride it may be, pride is degenerate no matter who is doing it for these reasons stated. With addition to this, he also rejects political correctness, which he believes assaults freedom of speech and is a false facade of social civility, it treats people like babies and suppresses individualism.

[[File:World.png]] Overview [[File:World.png]]
American Social Democracy is opposed to  and , so he supports the  withdrawal of our troops from most conflicts we are involved in, along with dropping most of our sanctions on other countries aswell. However, this view is contrasted with, because he doesn't support withdrawing from international treaties and organizations we are involved in, as could be seen with  Trump's American first policy. He supports scaling back our military involvement while contributing more of our national resources for  humanitarian aid and achieving deals with other countries through  multilateral agreements by organizations like the  United Nations. So, he would be a, and subscribes to a  universalist view of the world, which is in-part from his   and  utilitarian moral code, as these are naturally  universal values, he believes its important to uphold these values of   and   in other countries. While at the same time, he's opposed to, as previously stated on this page, it's a neoliberal tool that kills the power of labor unions while concentrating the power of wealth into the hands of a few rich elites, and is a form of  neo-imperialism that subjects smaller economies to bigger economies. He would be considered an, his form of globalization would encourage international co-operation while respecting each others economic sovereignty. So, he's skeptical of, seeing these are largely unrealistic and not achievable, he rejects concepts like   and.

Due to his anti-imperial stances, he's critical of both  and , with the powers of the west having contributed to neo-imperialism in the same way the east has, he's skeptical of both of their influences. However, he's friendlier with the west because the west respects his values more, but will still call out their imperialism where it is due. His foreign policy would  to maintain our national sovereignty from unfair deals that slave us to major powers. He supports pro-democracy movements in countries fighting for political freedom like the.

He's a firm supporter of, seeing  neo-imperialism as something that should be actively fought against, he supports struggling nations rights to self-determination. This is where his anti-colonial stances come from, thinking that people fighting oppression in authoritative regimes should have the right to self-determination. However, he views independence movements in countries that aren't fighting against authoritarianism with suspicion. Foreign Policy=

[[File:Globnat.png]] Alternative Globalization [[File:Globnat.png]]
American Social Democracy, while being opposed to  due to it being a tool of neoliberals that contributes to  neo-imperialism, isn't opposed to the concept of globalization. So, is therefore an, he wants to work with other countries and build peaceful relations with them for things like climate change and technological development while opposing the harmful effects of. As, it has created massive wealth inequality, exploited the environment, and has caused the weakening of worker's rights in favor of massive corporations. So, his model of globalization would follow that of the  model. Believing that, globalization can be shaped to serve the interests of the working class, and not the interest of wealthy corpocratic elites. He wants to preserve the wealth equality of developing countries and utilize the positive effects of globalization like environmental and  technological co-operation.

[[File:Dem.png]] Civil Unrest Groups [[File:Dem.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the backing of civil unrest groups in countries were. As stated on his cultural tab, were  are not possible due to said rights not being present,  revolution and  civil disobedience would naturally be the next best answer, and he believes it's the moral obligation of democratic states to back said protestors against those authoritarian states.

[[File:Internation.png]] Intergovernmental Organizations [[File:Internation.png]]
American Social Democracy doesn't have a problem with  themselves, so long as they're bottom-up and democratic, seeing as how this is how developing countries have resisted developed countries exploiting them by doing this. And, while he isn't against military alliances, as he recognizes that they are necessary for securing the national sovereignties of countries, these alliances must be purely for defensive reasons.

[[File:SocialistPatriot.png]] Social Patriotism [[File:SocialistPatriot.png]]
American Social Democracy, despite being an, doesn't reject  , seeing it as necessary for anti-colonial movements to take place and for the unity of a country. With this, he supports inclusive forms of nationalism like  and. However, he also despises, not seeing them as real  patriots of their country, but just as. One's nation and values should be shared off of a  instead of pointless things like  ethnicity,  religion, or  race. Seeing these forms of nationalism as unnecessary barriers for both our country and humanity that should be overcome.

[[File:Ecoglob.png]] Environmental Globalization [[File:Ecoglob.png]]
American Social Democracy defends climate treaties like the Paris Agreement and other ones that  further coordinate environmental efforts between countries, believing that we have to work as a united world against climate change. Developed countries should be actively pressured to adopting climate protections and work together with other countries to develop technology that can solve global warming. However, developing countries won't be pressured as much, as they should still conserve their environment, but world powers are the greater evils in this situation. So, some destruction of developing countries environments for economic growth is fine, if it means they industrialize so they can be pressured into conserving their environment in the same way global powers will.

[[File:Techglobe.png]] Technological Globalization [[File:Techglobe.png]]
American Social Democracy supports, which coincides with his. He sees it as important to not only develop  here at home, but to develop it with other countries to combat climate change. Along with other technological advancements like vaccines and ect. However, he realizes the risk of creating a digital divide between the rich and the poor, so regulations will apply that prevent this from happening, which will follow his.

[[File:Cball-NATO.png]] The West [[File:Cball-NATO.png]]
American Social Democracy is very critical of western powers due to their role in Imperialism, even if decolonization has happened, the West indebts developing countries with globalist organizations like the IMF and the World Bank, and is the biggest spreader of globalist capitalism that enslaves these countries we see today with the foreign interventions that have toppled  social democratic governments for  authoritarian capitalist states. Along with the rising authoritarianism in these states themselves, with the governments enacting more and more policies that erode the right to privacy through things like crime bills and ect that expand the survillence state. To say the West is the defender of the free world is foolish when you consider how much democratic governments they've overthrown in the third world, they are merely self-serving and imperialistic world powers, no matter if the country is democratic or not. While he thinks western values are better than that of eastern states, he would persue greater dependence from these powers as a way to avoid their imperial wars. So, he takes a non-aligned stance.

[[File:Humanismpix.png]] Nuclear Disarmament [[File:Humanismpix.png]]
American Social Democracy supports, seeing nuclear bombs as something that no country should be able to process due to it having the chance of annihilating us as species off of this planet and the inherent unfairness it wields towards countries who possess  them on the international stage. However, there should be some nuclear bombs left over for rare events where it would actually be needed to have, but it should be some sort of collectively owned stock pile by all major countries.

[[File:Euras.png]] The East [[File:Euras.png]]
American Social Democracy is critical of the East in the same way he's critical of the West, as both sides are pretty imperialistic in this regard. Both have contributed to neo-colonialism of third world countries in a bid to gain more influence on the international stage. And, in some aspects, are worse than the West. Primarily for the reason that they are often authoritarian conservative regimes that do not respect human rights or progressive values. He believes Eastern powers should get out of developing countries, and let them decide their own fates without any major power budging in.

[[File:Pac.png]] World Peace [[File:Pac.png]]
American Social Democracy subscribes to the idea that world peace is achievable. Now, while it seems very unlikely, as wars haven't stopped even in the modern day, the amount of wars being fought has significantly decreased over years due to the United States led international liberal world order. However, while this world order is better than the hegemonic powers of the East, it is not desirable in the same way hegemony from Eastern powers is not desirable, world powers will always be after their own self gain. And thus, will be the biggest threats to world peace. So, despite seeing the West as the slightly lesser evil in geopolitical affairs, the countries that pose the biggest threats to world peace are: China, Russia, and the United States. There's more to this, corporate power also poses a threat as well. Since these multinational companies are actively undermining democracy in both at home and abroad in developing countries, he sees it as important to curb the power of these exploitive mega-corporations.

[[File:Postconan.png]] Anti-Colonialism [[File:Postconan.png]]
American Social Democracy supports countries fighting for  against  colonialism with his  anti-imperialist mindset,   is something that should be actively fought against, as   is a modern day evil that actively strips countries of their autonomies and cultures which enslaves developing countries to developed countries, and has created a  neo-feudalist system that is controlled by  multinational corporations. However, he's critical of movements that are not fighting against oppressive regimes, and is less likely to support those movements than he is to support the movements of people fighting for independence against authoritarian regimes.

[[File:Internat.png]] Foreign Aid [[File:Internat.png]]
American Social Democracy views foreign aid as a double edged sword. On one hand, when use rightly, it can actually helped underdeveloped countries in need and prevent the deaths of thousands of people through humanitarian aid. But, on the other, it can be used by corrupt officials to further their own wealth, while leaving very little of the population it was intended to be given too. But, in spite of all of this, he still has a rather favorable view of foreign aid, seeing as the United States has helped prevent the deaths of countless people through its foreign aid programs, he is very much in favor of increasing the amount of foreign aid given to developing countries, as all major powers have moral obligations to help developing countries.

[[File:Strato.png]] The Military [[File:Strato.png]]
American Social Democracy is in favor of defunding the national budget of the military, as it is way too bloated for the national security of our country. Along with the thousands of lives that are taken each year in conflicts we intervene in that only benefit the military industrial complex. But, the military should still receive adequate funding for the defense of our national security, as we still need to defend our allies and our international interests, but we can't go bossing other countries around just because we have the diplomatic weight to do so. We should decrease our military involvement in the world while increasing our international co-operation efforts with other countries.

[[File:Isolation.png]] Non-Interventionism [[File:Isolation.png]]
American Social Democracy, supporting a non-internventionist foreign policy, rejects   just for the sake of combatting the rise of authoritarian states and spreading "democracy". As, this leads to forever endless wars that waste billions of dollars in tax payer money just for the military industrial complex without any actual plans for nation building, which our government doesn't have a good track record with. We should abandon most of our military bases to save billions of dollars in tax payer money, as it is not our job to police the world. The presence of our military in the world has caused nothing but suffering for developing countries, and we should accept that. However, there are specific instances were it is necessary to intervene in foreign conflicts, such as: defending our allies from foreign aggressors and stopping the rise of a genocidal state as can be seen during WW2 and other instances of genocides happening in other countries like during Yugoslavia in Kosovo, outside of these specific circumstances, intervention should almost never be used as it is not our issue what goes on in other countries.

International Organizations =

[[File:Necon.png]] NATO [[File:Necon.png]]
American Social Democracy does not support the continued membership of the United States in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, following his dislikement a lot of transnational alliances. This is because of his non-interventionist stances on the military, he sees the current organization as fueling the military industrial complex of the United States that has contributed to the toppling of third-world democracies and human rights violations, specifically the toppling of democratically elected social democratic leaders. Him, being a social democrat himself, finds it hard to support such a genocidal organization that has overthrown his own governments for their own selfish gain. Along with also spending billions of dollars defending countries that don't want to contribute fairly to the alliance as well. So, while he is opposed to the organization in its current state, he's not opposed to an pan-national alliance that unites all of these countries together, and believes in replacing the current organization with a  collective security council and the strengthening of  intergovernmental organizations like the  OSCE to prevent the outbreak of future conflicts on the continent and booster international co-operation, seeing NATO as a genocidal organization that puts human rights over profit and has outlived its usefulness. He maintains that It's important for the United States to hold good relations with Europe through multilateralism to maintain the transatlantic alliance between Europe and America, but oppose getting involved into any wars not waged out of self-defense.

[[File:Cball-UN.png]] United Nations [[File:Cball-UN.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that the  doesn't really do a whole lot, but sees the organization as a useful tool for peaceful diplomacy. And, as such, is supportive of the United States to remain within the United Nations. But, he would reform the institutions of the United Nations to be more democratic and more representative of its members. As, the UN in its current states only represents the 5 big members. The organization should be used to further diplomatic means for things like environmentalism and humanitarianism to prevent the outbreak of war between countries and other disasters.

However, he is skeptical of using international organizations like the United Nations to. And, while not despising the concept of this, he sees it as largely impractical, and a tool of neoliberal globalists to further push their agenda. Although, if it was done under alternative globalist means, he wouldn't have a whole lot of an issue with it. Given, the process is entirely voluntary.

On it's agencies like the, ect. American Social Democracy opposes them. As, these organizations have indebted third world countries and contributed to economic exploitation of said countries by developed countries.

[[File:Cball-EU.png]] European Union [[File:Cball-EU.png]]
American Social Democracy doesn't oppose the  as an idea, as the organization has done good things, like ensuring  peace between the member states,  carbon emission reducing measures, and its role in the protection of consumer goods and standards. However, he dislikes the  used by the organization, along with the , seeing these as   that cause wealth inequality to rise within Europe. So, he doesn't oppose EU membership itself, but opposes these specific policies of the organization, making him a. Does he support movements like Brexit and others that want to leave the economic union? No, as stated, he is a reformist in this regard, he believes the movements create more issues than they solve if the countries just stayed in the EU, so he is opposed to leaving it in the same way he's opposed to further integration. He wants to democratize the institutions and give the member states greater control over policies like trade and immigration. He opposes the idea of, seeing as it is largely impratical, and would either become undemocratic, or fall apart entirely due the massive amounts of disagreements within and between European governments. The parties in the European Parilement he would side with would either be the  or the.

With this, he is supportive of the European Parliament in sanctioning authoritative governments that are faltering on having democracy, like. As, the union should do everything in its legal authority to uphold human rights and democracy in the countries residing in it, because even if he doesn't particularly agree with the economic union undermining the nation's sovereignty for their globalist agenda, he also doesn't like illiberal democracies arising as well.

While he doesn't have a problem with immigration, as it is a good way to fix our demographic crisis, he dislikes what happened during the immigration crisis of 2015. Because, letting in that much immigrants at once for any country would cause immediate conflict, and caused the rise of said right-wing populists to take hold in Europe. So, he defends the more  policies of leaders like  Frederiksen for   and their  anti-Islamic attitudes in other European countries, as , along with France's policy of. He believes that left-wing parties must adopt  policies to protect their voter base from turning to right-wing populists and to keep them from rising.

Countries =

[[File:Cball-China.png]] China [[File:Cball-China.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that the pushing for friendlier relations with the CCP was a mistake. As, while letting China join the WTO pushed the prices of goods down and gave a new market for companies, it also caused the mass exporting of our jobs to the Chinese market which do not share our larbor standards. Combine this with the fact that the CCP is a pseudo-fascist  that. And, is actively commiting the largest human rights abuse since the holocaust. Along with having no respect for their own environment or workers rights. He believes it's important that the CCP is called out on an international scale for their human rights abuses and unfair trade practices. There would be numerous numerous protectionist policies in place to shield our jobs from cheap Chinese exporters. Along with pushing for greater relations between neigbhoring countries that border the South China Sea to resist both American and Chinese influence, because while he does call out China and their imperialist actions, he will also call out the Americans and their imperialist actions, this shouldn't be used as an attempt by us to gain more influence in the region.

However, despite how bad China is and how satisfying it would be for the real China to take over the mainland, we can't just go in a dick-swinging contest with the CCP just because we can, as we need to maintain some level of mutual relationship with the CCP, while also condemning their actions. There are some areas we need to co-operate with the Chinese government on, such as environmental issues, as China is a major power that is contributing to global warming. We should be pursuing a policy of realpolitik with the CCP.

[[File:Cball-US.png]] United States [[File:Cball-US.png]]
American Social Democracy is a, despite this however, he's critical of the United States and its foreign policy. He sees how NATO interventions backed by the US have overthrown social democratic governments in developing countries for brutal US backed dictators. He believes the foreign policy of the United States needs to greatly change for obvious reasons. And while he thinks that the US is the slightly lesser evil over Russia and China, he believes that both sides are cringe due to their role of imperialism.

[[File:Cball-Taiwan.png]] Taiwan [[File:Cball-Taiwan.png]]
American Social Democracy fully supports Taiwan over this dispute, and believes that the  Chinese government has no legitimate authority in claiming the Taiwanese island or messing with the national sovereignty of another country. Taiwan itself is the most based state in East Asia compared to its neighbors like Japan or South Korea, with it being the most progressive and an actual functioning democracy that respects human rights. He is also a staunch supporter of Taiwanese independence on the international stage, along with giving his full and critical support for the , and the  Hong Kong Protesters. Along with this, he supports the United States in militarily defending  Taiwan if the  CCP ever launched a military invasion of the Island. Although, that probably would never happen anyways, as the Chinese government is a paper tiger that's all talk and no bite. Taiwan is a real country and the only legitimate China.

[[File:Cball-HongKong.png]] Hong Kong [[File:Cball-HongKong.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the Hong Kong democratic movement and other human rights activists in the region. He sees how the totalitarian Chinese government has successfully undermined Hong Kong democracy as saddening, but not surprising. It was going to happen no matter what, and there was not a whole lot we could do to stop it since Hong Kong is apart of China in a legal sense, even if he is whole heartedly against the undermining of Democracy in Hong Kong. Although, even though he supports this movement against Chinese authorities, he realizes some of the people within this movement support Western imperialism because "Chinese empiralism is worse!1!1!1", which he disowns, as empires in any context shouldn't be glorified. So, he overall supports the movement, but thinks some of the people within the movement are cringe, Hong Kong should be independent from China ideally, although that obviously isn't happening. He specifically supports the, because Chinese authorities are actively breaking up labor unions in the region and undermining worker's rights.

[[File:Cball-Russia.png]] Russia [[File:Cball-Russia.png]]
American Social Democracy believes that  should, in absolutely zero way, be recognized. And, that all the lands stolen should be given back to their neighbors. And, he condemns the invasion of Ukraine, believing that this war must be a devastating defeat for  Putin, and all former territories prior to Ukrainian independence from the USSR must be given back. He supports the Russian opposition party to that of United Russia, being. Along with this, he supports other opposition parties like the.

[[File:Cball-Ukraine.png]] Ukraine [[File:Cball-Ukraine.png]]
While American Social Democracy obviously doesn't support Russia, as they are an oppressive  authoritarian conservative dictatorship, he also doesn't fully support  Ukraine either. As, both of our governments have common enemies that we should work together against, he also realizes that Ukraine suffers the same issues Russia does, as the government is an oligarchical state that doesn't care about worker rights, like a lot of post-soviet states. But, because Ukraine is fighting a defensive war imposed onto it by the Putin regime, he will support Ukraine against Russian expansion. With this, he sees Major powers budging in as the main issue that has caused all of these issues in the first place. So, the country would be better of non-aligned from the west and east, but still have some enforcement mechanism in place to protect their country from further Russian aggression.

[[File:Cball-Belarus.png]] Belarus [[File:Cball-Belarus.png]]
American Social Democracy sides with the, believing that   is not the legitimate ruling party of Belarus. And, is supportive of. As, the Belarusian people deserve fair and free elections, and a legitimate government. Not some Putin backed puppet dictatorship that doesn't have the best interest of the people's minds at heart. With all of this, while he personally dislikes the European Union, he still maintains the stance that Lukashenko has to go, as he's nothing but a corrupt despot that is a Putin puppet. Belarus in this instance would be better off non-aligned from the west and the east as well. But, if that's a decision the people themselves want to make, then that should be up to the people their and them alone, without any major powers budging in.

[[File:Cball-Hungary.png]] Hungary [[File:Cball-Hungary.png]]
American Social Democracy is against the current ruling party of. As, it is slowly chipping away the remaining democracy Hungary has, and is a  Russian asset as well. He supports the sanctioning of Orban's government by the  European Union. As, Europe doesn't need any pointless infighting, and the current government of Hungary is destroying it's own country in the process. He supports the opposition coalition that oppose his government. And, would support a peaceful revolution by the opposition as well, as Hungary is in dire need of some political change to keep it from going down the destructive path it's going.

[[File:Cball-Iraq.png]] Iraq [[File:Cball-Iraq.png]]
Despite how bad  was, the military invasion had no grounds for happening, wasted billions of tax payer dollars, completely failed at nation building and establishing a functioning  republic, and lead to the complete destabilization of the region which caused   to take control of the territory they did. He is against the invasion done by the neocons. He will support  against   and , ect.

[[File:Cball-Poland.png]] Poland [[File:Cball-Poland.png]]
The polish government needs to open up its government, stop its  corrupt, and destructive practices. He supports the opposition party to Law and Justice, being. As, Poland doesn't need to go down the same fate  Hungary will go down if they don't stop. And, would support a peaceful revolution against the current Polish government by the opposition parties. So, I'm very much supportive of the European Parliament in sanctioning the current Polish government.

[[File:Cball-Greece.png]] Greece [[File:Cball-Greece.png]]
American Social Democracy realizes that both the European Union and the  Greek government are at fault for the situation. As, the Greek government was corrupt as shit, and lied about its debt so it could get into the economic union. While, the Greek government was further indebted by bad loans given to it to try to bail it out. Overall, it is important that we help Greece out of their financial crisis, but oppose giving them any sort of bailouts.

[[File:Cball-Kosovo.png]] Kosovo [[File:Cball-Kosovo.png]]
American Social Democracy supports Kosovo in their right to self-determination and independence. However, Kosovo would be better off integrating into  Albania, with the ethnic Serbian bits going to Serbia, and the rest going to Albania. As, it's very unlikely to get internationally recognized as an independent country, so that would be the second best outcome to achieve its independence from Serbia.

[[File:Cball-Syria.png]] Syria [[File:Cball-Syria.png]]
American Social Democracy supports withdrawing most of our troops from Syria, and its related regions. We should focus on working together with other countries to defeat ISIS and other related terrorist groups in the region, as that should take priority first. Along with supporting the Kurdish rebels, as they deserve independence and the right to self-determination for everything they've been through in this conflict. Assad's regime must be opposed, as Assad has started this entire conflict, and is a corrupt and brutal dictator. Fighting the humanitarian crisis caused by the civil war and the displaced people's should also take priority as well, as the mass immigration of refugees from the Middle East has to stop.

[[File:Cball-Saudi.png]] Saudi Arabia [[File:Cball-Saudi.png]]
American Social Democracy doesn't support allying ourselves with Saudi Arabia, a country with no records of human rights or political freedom. We shouldn't be cozying up to dictators who go against our own values because they have something to offer us, especially with what happened with the news reporters, funding terrorist groups, and stuff related to that.

[[File:Cball-Iran.png]] Iran [[File:Cball-Iran.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the United States in working together with Iran were it is needed, like the  nuclear arms disarmament, but opposed in other Areas like their horrific human rights records. It is important that we maintain diplomatic relations with the Iranian government due to these reasons. Along with this, he supports the protests that have been happening in the country against the government, and believes that they should be internationally backed.

[[File:Cball-Afghanistan.png]] Afghanistan [[File:Cball-Afghanistan.png]]
While American Social Democracy doesn't support the Taliban taking over Afghanistan, he supports the withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan. Because, we were fighting an endless war we were never bound to win, that was costing us billions of dollars every year. We should've pulled out as soon as we got the guy we wanted. However, he doesn't support how president Biden withdrew troops from Afghanistan in the way that it happened. As, it wasn't carefully thought out, and we just ended up intervening in other places anyways. He would support a full withdrawal from these conflicts. Ideally, Afghanistan should have a democratic and  secular government to combat the Islamo fundies and other religious conflict in the region.

[[File:Cball-Yugoslavia.png]] Yugoslavia [[File:Cball-Yugoslavia.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the military intervention in  Yugoslavia. As, it was a humanitarian intervention that was necessary to stop the ethnic genocide by  Serbian troops in  Kosovo.

[[File:Thailand.png]] Thailand [[File:Thailand.png]]
American Social Democracy supports the anti-governmental protestors against the Thai monarchy. He believes the current government is not the legitimate government and hopes that the monarchy gets overthrown for a republic. Because, while he personally doesn't care about monarchism, he sees the Thai monarchy as corrupt and oppressive, so in this instance, he would be strictly anti-monarchist.

[[File:Cball-India.png]] India [[File:Cball-India.png]]
American Social Democracy supports allying ourselves with India, but oppose Modi and other   as well. As, the  has largely been shaped by the. India is an important player in world politics, and it is important to uphold democratic institutions within the country and  peace within the region.

[[File:Cball-Venezuela.png]] Venezuela [[File:Cball-Venezuela.png]]
American Social Democracy doesn't support the current government of Venezuela, but also doesn't support the  United States meddling in the affairs of  Venezuela as well. We should try to amend the relations between our government and theirs while actively condemning the violence and everything else that has happened. Ideally, the rule of law and fair elections should be reestablished, and the current government should step down. He personally supports the opposition party towards the government.

[[File:Cball-Libya.png]] Libya [[File:Cball-Libya.png]]
American Social Democracy is against the intervention in Libya. Because, despite how bad  was, it doesn't justify what the  neoconservatives did. As, going in and destabilizing the country further just replaced Gaddafi's regime with  terrorists groups.

[[File:Cball-North_Korea.png]] North Korea [[File:Cball-North_Korea.png]]
American Social Democracy obviously doesn't like North Korea as a state, they are our foreign adversary. And, he considers the concept of  to have completely failed in its entirety, as it isn't even socialist in the modern day, just more closer to  state capitalism and  Third Positionism. So, North Korea is by most definitions, and failed state, and has no real right to exist on the geopolitical stage.

[[File:Cball-South_Korea.png]] South Korea [[File:Cball-South_Korea.png]]
American Social Democracy would support South Korea in taking over  North Korea over this dispute, but that doesn't mean he support South Korea fully. As their society is his anti-thesis and rampant with corrupt oligarchical rule and is a late capitalist hell scape. So, South Korea as a government and as a society needs to greatly improve if they want his full unconditional support to take over the Korean Peninsula. But, given the choice next is a country that is a totalitarian hell hole which is a failed state with no respect for  human rights, he would choose the lesser evil in this instance.

[[File:Cball-Japan.png]] Japan [[File:Cball-Japan.png]]
American Social Democracy, while liking a lot of the media that comes from this country, also realizes that its society and government are his anti-thesis in a lot of way. He is against the current Japanese government, as it is a lot of what he stands against. What Japan needs is a massive resurgence in labor unions to improve worker's rights in the country, among other left-wing reforms, as he realizes the working conditions in this country are far from good. The current party is just a neo-con imperialist party and is a, he supports the   against the current ruling party. He will support Japan against forces like  China,  Russia, ect.

[[File:Castro.png]] Cuba [[File:Castro.png]]
American Social Democracy, In spite of what he thinks of the Cuban government, thinks that the blockade against them is unjust, and should be lifted. However, the current government isn't some anti-imperialist baston either, it's just a brutal dictatorship that suppresses any personal rights of its citizens. And with this, he promptly sides with the. And, would support a revolution against the current Cuban government by the Cuban people, as they deserve a lot better than what they currently have. Not some authoritarian, corrupt, and brutal dictatorship. They deserve a democratic and fair government.

[[File:Zio.png]] Israel [[File:Zio.png]]
American Social Democracy doesn't support Israel, their government needs to stop its brutal policies of neo-colonialism against the  Arabs. Along with dropping our international support for Israel, and stop giving them our tax paying dollars. As, the current government is strong enough on its own to fend for itself. But, he's not opposed to Israel existing as a state, as Israel has the right to self-determination, like all countries do. And, in all honesty, a part of him would prefer Israel over Palestine personally as it is a functioning western democracy that is secular with respect for western values, but ultimately refrains from taking a stand of being against or for Israel as Israel is an ethnostate that is committing crimes against humanity. He just wants to pull out of this region because It's not our fight to fight. We should be supporting Israel and Palestine together in peace deals that stabilize the region from further conflict.

[[File:Cball-Palestine.png]] Palestine [[File:Cball-Palestine.png]]
American Social Democracy doesn't support Palestine, as their government needs to drop Hamas, and other terrorist organizations related to its government. As, the brutality shown by the Palestinian government is on par with that of Israeli government. As, he's not opposed to Palestine existing, but they need to drop their ethnic centrism down to  civic nationalism, like  Israel should. Ideally, both governments should collapse. And, in their place, a democratic government that is based on secular governance and  civic nationalism that is made for both Israelis and Palestinians. But, seeing as that's idealistic, he would support a two state solution with similar terms. As, Palestine should be allowed to peacefully co-exist with Israel, and have the right to self-determination.

Ideological Relations =

 * [[File:Dem-CPC.png]] Congressional Progressive Caucus - One of the most based political organizations in the United States. I will personally push the democratic party as left as I can while I'm still alive. However, I wish you didn't subscribe to the intersectional identity politic obsessed side of the culture war, and some of the stuff you try to push is legitimately cringe and I cannot personally agree with it. However, even with these disagreements I find with this organization, it's still rather solid and I support it.
 * [[File:LeftSocdem.png]] Left-Social Democracy - BASED! i identify as this! Shame your not what social democracy is in the West.

 * [[File:Modprog.png]] Moderate Progressivism - I like this, a lot. Push the goalpost further left while denouncing the SJW bits of progressivism is what I like. Wokeness is killing modern day progressivism, and has turned it into a joke to be frank.
 * [[File:CultLib.png]] Cultural Liberalism - People should be allowed to do what they want so long as they aren't harming me.
 * [[File:Internation.png]] Internationalism - We have to care about the world as well, with upholding things like environmental laws and universal tax codes, this is a very useful foreign policies for such things. Although, some of you guys are military interventionists which is cringe. Peaceful internationalism is based.
 * [[File:Lula.png]] Lulism - by the tinest of margins, you managed to win the brazillian election. Good job on defeating the far-right bolsonario candidate.
 * [[File:Antiimp.png]] Anti-Imperialism - Liberation for all oppressed peoples! Kick out all Neo-imperialists!
 * [[File:Anti-antirevision.png]] Anti-Anti-Revisionism - I'm not a socialist myself, but revisionary socialists were chad af and respectable, depending on the leaders themselves obviously. Stop embracing authoritarians though.
 * [[File:Anticommunism.png]] Anti-Communism - Communism is a parasite that has never worked. Although, supporting authcap regimes by the US is gay.
 * [[File:Statecap.png]] - Your actual economic model is quite good, ignoring how you're used as a prejorative term a lot of the time.
 * [[File:Leftanticommie.png]] Left Anti Communism - My kind of anti-communism. Distinct yourself from supporting authcap regimes and other far-right crazies, while still stick true to leftism.
 * [[File:Civnat.png]] - The best form of nationalism to exist, when paired with international co-operation, you are truly based. Ethno/racenats can cope and seethe.
 * [[File:Leftnat.png]] - Ditto above.
 * [[FIle:NatHed.png]] National Hedonism - Nationalism, but even more based.
 * [[File:Left-Enlightenmentf.png]] Left-Enlightenment - Individualism mixed with leftism? Holy mother of based!

 * [[File:Hedonism-cloud.png]] Hedonism - Live and let live is my own personal philosophy.
 * [[File:Protect.png]] - Outsourcing has killed off labor unions and the progressive movement, we need to produce more of what we make here.
 * [[File:Lib.png]] - You're alright. I get basically, everything from you. However, your modern adherents are too friendly with things like free-trade and corporate welfare, but overall, not bad.
 * [[File:Modnat.png]] - We need a national identity for our country.
 * [[File:LeftBert.png]] - I find myself sympathetic towards this, as I literally land here on this quadrant, but moderately. I may find myself being more libertarian in the future, who knows.
 * [[File:Socgeo.png]] - We need a LVT!
 * [[File:Socfem.png]] - Women uphold half the sky, so it's natural both sexes would be equal.
 * [[File:Intercult.png]] - Immigrants need to know our national identity because it is quite literally one the base pillars to living in any society. Even ignoring if I hated diversity or not, you need to know the language and the country's customs at the bear minimum to interact with society, otherwise you will be socially exluded. So, it's dumb to say that anyone that doesn't like multiculturalism is just being a racist bigot when it fails at creating any inclusive environment for foreigners for that exact reason.
 * [[File:Welf.png]] - The welfare state is based.
 * [[File:Civlibert.png]] - Fighting for individual rights is based, society would be nothing without you!
 * [[File:Thar.png]] - The decenteralization of power and civil liberties are necessary to keep the government from turning tyrannical on the population. However, realize that some dictators have been forces for good throughout history, that's your only short coming. Otherwise, we own tankies, fashies, and reactionaries together, and I couldn't be any happier doing so.
 * [[File:Globnat.png]] - Globalization should benefit the people, not the elite.
 * [[File:Mach.png]] - Against all idealism and dogma. Although, morality shouldn't be irrelevant in decision making, I wouldn't kill 1 million people to achieve my political goals.

[[File:Meh.png]] Bringe

 * [[File:Prog-u.png]] - You have the overall right idea, we need to shift the goalpost left. However, you focus too much on creating an inclusive culture to the point were it becomes regressive. Be more moderate please, and disown woke culture.
 * [[File:Soclib.png]] - Your ok, but your modern adherents are cringe who directly serve the establishment by things like corporate welfare and bribes.
 * [[File:CosmoSocDem.png]] Social Cosmopolitanism - You're not the worst idea in the world. Infact, world federalism could easily be the endgoal of my ideology when the time is appropate for it. However, I don't see any particular usefulness for you right now or atleast in the next ten thousand years. But, your time may come when it's necessary.
 * [[File:Cultural Nationalism.png]] - I understand why some societies adopt you, as culture can be important there for the national identity, but you're too exlusionary to both foreigners and the native population.
 * [[File:WelfChauvin.png]] - You're really only tolerable when paired with cultural nationalism. Identitarianism is cringe and unacceptable no matter what, ethnicity and race shouldn't matter.
 * [[File:Gay.png]] LGBTism - I personally do not care about one's sexuality, if that wasn't obvious. I wouldn't bat an eye if I saw a homosexual or a striaght relationship, and vice versa. However, the community is what i particurally dislike, as it's neck deep in things like idpol.
 * [[File:AntiAm.png]] Anti-Americanism - I specifically hate the american empire and its government. Although, ethnic self-hatred is cringe, I will do anything to improve the state of this country through the power I can.
 * [[File:Anin.png]] - So based, yet so cringe at the same time.

[[File:No.png]] Cringe
Philosphy Relations =

 * [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] - I hate you with every fiber of my being.
 * [[File:Altr.png]] - Go outside and touch grass edgy teen.
 * [[File:World.png]] - Anyone advocating for this is dead to me. Imperialism with a human face. "BuT MuH NaTiOnAlIsM iS SeLfIsH wOrK ToGeThEr FoR a BeTtEr FuTuRe11!!1", that sounds good in theory, but in practice, you end up replacing nation states for multnational corporations. I was never against internationalism, I'm specifically against you as a neoliberal tool that exploits the global poor.
 * [[File:Multicult.png]] - Why western progressives obsess over inclusiveness this much is beyond me. This threatens to destroy our national identity and is a neoliberal tool. Interculturalism is a far better approach
 * [[File:Fash.png]] - Being edgy is not a political ideology.
 * [[File:React.png]] - I'm a degenerate now? Have you ever thought of looking in the mirror and seeing how the times have changed, and thought to yourself, maybe you are the degenerate?
 * [[File:Wignat.png]] - STOP HARASSING ME YOU NEO-NAZI ASSHOLES.
 * [[File:Ultraprogressivism.png]] - No, you're not fighting for progress. You're fighting for the opposite, off to the pits, same with reactionarism.
 * [[File:Dengf.png]] - "The transitionary state will come after a couple hundred years of totalitarian state capitalism guys, i swear!1!1!1!1". But seriously, any "leftist" who are apologizing for you are not leftists.
 * [[File:Neoimp.png]] Neo-Imperialism - Just because I advocate against totalitarian eastern regimes doesn't mean I support the western empire. Which, I will say, a lot of people who are against those regimes are hypocratical for supporting the western empire that exists. I'm explicitly anti-empire were it applies. No matter if its a liberal empire or an authoritarian conservative empire, empires are evil.
 * [[File:Libfem.png]] - You've turned feminism into a joke with your intersectional idpol, feminism should be about fighting for the equal rights of both genders, not blaming men for you being a lazy shit who doesn't want to improve yourself. More female drone pilots also won't help anyone.
 * [[File:Trumpism.png]] - Not a fascist like a lot of liberals claim, but he is a conspiratorial kleptocratic climate change denying idiot who is perpetrating the insanity of his fanbase. I don't particullarly like the democratic party, as I just see them as typical establishment servers, but I will support the democratic party against republicans, and in particular, the rise of trumpian republicanism, which is a cancer in our political climate that has caused the rise of anti-intellectualism that we see now from a lot of them. Not like that anti-intellectualism wasn't present before, but it's gotten a lot worse since the 2010's.

 * [[File:Nietzsche-icon.png]] Nietzscheanism - His philosophy is really interesting, even if I don't agree with a whole lot of it.
 * [[File:Col.png]] Collectivism - I'm a fan of communitarian economics, but not in social matters. You're needed to a certain extent for harm control and to keep the population safe, but individuals should still be allowed to do as they please.
 * [[File:Existentialism.png]] - I don't agree with you on moral relativism, but I do agree with you in other areas.

 * [[File:Theocrat.png]] Fundamentalism - Why should I believe in your fictional fairytale? And, the majority of religious fundamentalists are alt-right retards.
 * [[File:Paternalism.png]] Paternalism - Why would I want some overly reaching government deciding what's right for me personally as an individual in social matters? That's what lead to the destruction of civil liberties like the right to privacy. It's clear, the government a lot of the time doesn't have the best intentions for us as individuals.
 * [[File:Anti-Humanism.png]] -
 * [[File:Virtue_ethics_icon.png]] Virtue Ethics - I get excess pleasure is bad and focusing on myself entirely isn't a good thing, but when I'm not harming anyone then I can be as self-indulging as I want to be. Like, who am I harming by enjoying myself the privacy of my own private property?

[[File:Mega_Yes.png]] Based

 * [[File:NDP_icon.png]] New Democratic Party - Based, Canada needs you.
 * [[File:Blanchet.png]] Bloc Québécois - Pretty based.

[[File:Meh_by_buni.png]] Bringe

 * [[File:Volt.png]] - Interesting idea, and it is fun to tease. But, that would be extremely unlikely. The only tolerable bit is the progressiveness, outside of that, you would be put in cringe.
 * [[File:Demcr.png]] Democratic Party - Left democrats are the only tolerable faction, the rest of this party is a circus and has its pockets filled with corporate money. And, in reality, I would be independent.
 * [[File:TrudeauLib.png]] Liberal Party of Canada - I would take you over the conservatives, but that doesn't say a whole lot.
 * [[File:JapCom.png]] Japanese Communism - Good social policies and (some) foreign policies, everything else here is pretty much cringe though.
 * [[File:Green_Party_(US).png]] American Greenism - Too culturally left-wing and too left-wing on economics. Not seeming as bad as the DSA since i'm convinced they are just a bunch of larping feds.

[[File:No.png]] Cringe

 * [[File:LDP(Japan).png]] Japanese Liberal Democracy - I enjoy a lot of media that comes from Japan, but its government and society are absolutely shit and my anti-thesis. Also, stop denying Japanese war crimes committed during WW2.
 * [[File:USABert.png]] American Libertarianism - Very weird group of individuals might I say. Even If I agree with social individualism, economic individualism is bad. Also, don't agree with dismantling social security for private charity for obvious reasons.
 * [[File:USASolidarity.png]] American Solidarity Party - Aside from a few good poliices, hardly makes up for the rest of this dumpster fire you call a political party. Better than republicans, but that doesn't say a whole lot.
 * [[File:Alternative_for_germany_ball.png]] Alternative für Deutschland - Denies climate change, economic privatization, hard euroscepticism, full of german ultranationalists, very cringe and delusional.
 * [[File:FIDESZ.png]] FIDESZ - Actively destroying your own country and everything else this stands for is my polar opposite.
 * [[File:Pis.png]] PiS - Basically a less cringey version of Hungary's government. Welfare is cool, outside of that, my anti-thesis and utterly barf. Destroying your own country is not worth destroying the entirety of the European Union in the process.

Self-Insert Relations =

[[File:Mega_Yes.png]] Based

 * [[File:BeryAbLib.png]] Beryism ([[File:Geolib.png]]/[[File:Bhl.png]]/[[File:Civlibert.png]]/[[File:Nalib.png]]) - Our ideologies both share the same principles even if worship the free market too much. Your also a really friendly user, one of the most pleasant people I've seen on this site. At least your a libertarian who doesn't seem to hate all leftists. So overall, you're about as based as a libertarian rightist can be.
 * - Agreeable economics and you're pro-roc aswell. You'd definitely be better off ruling mainland china than the current chinese government. Although, that interventionism nonsense has to go.
 * [[File:EvolvingSoc.png]] Evolutionary Socialism - Definitely the most agreeable socialist on economics! We support alot of the same issues too but you're just more economically left than I am.
 * [[File:Mebrouk.png]] Mebroukism [[File:Mebrouk-2.png]] - Same ideology and is progressive, nice.
 * - Liberalism and progressivism are both based.
 * - A market socialist, which happens to be one of the most based socialists. But, you gotta chill out with the world federalism nonsense, as that is pretty cringe. Outside of that, there's not a whole lot I can complain about, other than you making hedonism your entire personality. Which, even as someone who is very fond of having fun myself, I think that should be kept to one's own personal business.
 * [[File:YellingLiber.png]] Neo Social Libertarianism - Pretty based for an interventionist, most of your ideology isn't even that bad. I like your foreign policy, but drop the interventionist stuff please. And, embrace alter-globalism.
 * [[File:ProgNeoCorp.png]] Progressive Neo-Corporatism - Incredibly based, and nearly identical to me. Please, cut with the world federalism and multiculturalism stuff. You'd be truly based if you became an alter-globalist.
 * [[File:Eurocorp.png]] European Corporatism - Too authoritarian for me personally, but I really like what I see here.
 * [[File:Uzarashvilism.png]] Uzarashvilism - Ok ideology. I like your cultural takes. But economics are bit too left for me along with your stances on agarianism, atleast you oppose tankies and the such.
 * - Environmentalism and progressivism are both good, although socialist economics for me are meh. I'm not a fan of Marxism.
 * [[File:OwfBall.png]] Owfism ([[File:World_Federalism2.png]]/[[File:Civlibert.png]]/[[File:Libms.png]]) - Your system is really interesting, and your economic tripartism and market socialism is very tolerable. But, the world federalism stuff is whack to say the least. Tone the former down to internationalism and it would be basically good. Also, not a fan of virtue ethics, but that's basically it.
 * [[File:TheIced.png]] Icedism - Based Georgist. But, free-market capitalism is kinda cringe ngl. Atleast you're against authoritarianism and are culturally left-wing.
 * [[File:TonyNew.png]] South Floridan Socialism - Socialism for me is meh, although, your economics aren't bad. But, you should really drop the independence stuff, as that is never happening. At least your cultural takes are good.
 * [[File:NSL.png]] Pirate Tails Ideology - We agree and disagree on so much. Firstly, hedonism and individualism are good, although we do disagree on economics obviously. For Poland, I suppose you would be better than whatever far-right bullshit the PiS government is propagating, but still not the best. Economic globalization is garbage as well, toppled with isolationism, bruh, we are opposites when it comes to foreign policy, at least you don't wanna blow up children in the middle east, so that's something.
 * [[File:Rocksismicon.png]] Rocksism - Kinda based, I can see us being partners as we have ideological overlap. Although, you're too socially progressive, but you respect my individual liberty so I let that slide. Atleast we both dislike the EU, imperialism, and austerity.

[[File:Yes.png]] Kinda Based

 * [[File:Tomjazz.png]] Tomjazzism - Too leftist for me, but being culturally progressive is based, along with being civically libertarian.
 * [[File:TAM_icon.png]] Third Aquarian Model - Your environmentalism and cultural takes are based. But, at the end of the day, I'm still a liberal and you're a socialist. But, that can be put aside for everything else I see, which I like. Although, too third worldist.
 * [[File:Ethwelball.png]] Ethnic Welfarism - Umm, where do I begin? Firstly, I like your geopolitical stance and alternative globalism and welfare. But, ethnic pluralism is something I seriously cannot get behind.

[[File:Meh_by_buni.png]] Bringe

 * )- While I admire not letting things holding you back and wanting to live your life how you want to live it. But even I wouldn't agree with such a lifestyle. Not my authority to tell you how you want to live, but, I would personally see this as too far.

 * [[File:HelloThere314Icon.png]] HelloThere314ism - Being culturally left is cool, anarchism isn't.
 * [[File:Hamburger.png]] Rejuvenative Hamburg thought - Cultural takes are based, but what's with this ethnopuralism and separatism stuff? Also, too left-wing and utopian.
 * [[File:Liblovsprite.png]] Liberty-Loverism - Pretty utopian ideology, anarchism won't ever work. But, being culturally left-wing is its saving grace.
 * [[File:NeoAlphadonialism.png]] Neo Alphadonialism - Your anarchist and egoist stances are really cringe. But, being culturally left is good.
 * [[File:AshleyHere.png]] AshleyHere Thought - Not a fan of what I see, only good thing is being culturally left-wing.
 * [[File:Ultro.png]] Ultroneism - It's weird how you take such great inspiration from Max Steiner, but I find your philosophical knowledge impressive, even if I don't agree with it.
 * [[File:AlaskanSoup.png]] AlaskanSoup Thought - Not even sure what to say about mutualist economics. I will say that being against authoritarianism is quite based, even if it's because you're an anarchist.
 * - Quebec Fr*nchoid, but a nice dude. Also, I don't like your interventionism nor your state enforced secularism, being a social liberal myself, enforcing lifestyles upon people to fit your world view is that no different of conservatism which you claim to be against. But, at least some of your culture takes are good. Progressive social technocracy is ok I guess,
 * [[File:NguyenreichismIcon.png]] Bruhman Thought - Cringe ultra who thinks everything they don't like is a liberal. Only saving grace is being culturally left.
 * Ronwelltarianism_icon.png Ronwelltarianism - Your support individual liberty, civil service reform, a non-interventionist and diplomatic foreign policy, and civil liberties are nice. But, you're more socially conservative than I am. Also, it's not contradictory to support vaccine mandates and individualism because vaccine mandates have existed before the corona pandemic and abortions aren't spreadable.
 * [[File:Syntridem2.png]] Syncretic Tridemism - Typical chud who uses baseless arguments like "morality" to justify their backwards view as a way of malding over the fact modern day conservatism doesn't conserve anything. At least we both like LVT and Welfare.
 * [[File:Atronism-icon.png]] Atronism - Based progressivism, but I dislike Marxism and communism. Tone the former down to socialism and your ideology would be good.
 * [[File:Neokira2.png]]Neo-Kiraism - environmentalism and internationalism are based, even if progressivism is good I don't like how much you take it. And communism is cringe and idealistic.
 * [[File:NeoArctoismIcon.png]] - I can swallow your economics. A bit too capitalisitc for me, but It isn't bad. I like your focus on individual rights and limited government that doesn't interfere in the daily lives of people, which is what I focus on too. But, your radical focus on culture war issues and wokeness kills it for me, as you focus on hyperspecific policies to counter the "woke" ideology to the point were it sounds like anti-woke wokeness. You're obsessing over woke culture to the point were you have become what you've sworn to destroy, which is the biggest issue for me personally. Along with not recognizing trans people, really now? Overall, quite mixed I have to say, but become less "anti-woke", as much as I hate woke ideology, and focus more on economics that cultural issues,
 * [[File:BasedMan.png]] BasedManism - I don't really know what to say cuz all your beliefs are big boy words I know next to nothing about so uhhh.... Environmentalism is based?
 * [[File:Novochirotesla.png]] Chiroteslaism - I like your cultural balanced takes, I see why you adopt such approach, although you are notably more socially conservative than I am which is a great issue I take. You don't focus on meaningless culture war issues, which is good, because people who are "anti-woke" often obsess over wokeness to the point were they become what they swore to destroy, you don't devolve into that. With your economics, they are notably more left-wing than I am, as I don't want to phase out of private property and ownership under capitalists, while you do. It's good you want a system that reduces wealth inequality and rewards work, but I just don't see this system as working better than a regulatory capitalist system, even if it is well intended. And our particular dislikement of neo-imperialism, nato, the EU, and second world imperialism are good! However, to go back to your cultural takes, it's good you don't want lgbt people to be harassed while opposing pride culture, your support for gender equality, racial equality, religious tolerance, and allowing abortion. But, I take grave offense to you opposing individualism, and thinking cultural liberalism is when "muh degeneracy!1!111", I shouldn't be forced to live under some abstract moral code under your society. Overall, it's good how you subscribe to prgamatism, modernism, and overall centrism on cultural takes, but your anti-individualism kills it for me.

[[File:Meh.png]] Kinda Cringe

 * [[File:DN_Adm.png]] Darknight Yuusha Model - You're ideology has some saving graces. With being environmentalist, free speech (although wanting to restrict expression that you don't personally like is contradictory to that), political freedom, secularism, ect. But, your first world conservatism, your anti-western and anti-liberalism rants, and all of that. Yeah, that is pretty cringe for me. Not to mention, your economics are too left-wing for me.
 * [[File:SSTicon.png]] Novoscarletism - Too left-wing, conservative, authoritarian, and anti-west. With the same saving graces as Darknight. Firstly, idealizing authoritarianism, conservativism, and the eastern Hegemony powers (even if you claim to be against them, you would still pick them over the west. Which is a pretty cringe take). Those are all massive bruh moments. A long with being against NATO and defensive alliances as a whole? Yeah, that's really cringe. The United States still needs to influence on the global stage, as it's pretty ungreatful to just circle jerk "uS BaD". I'm saying that as a left-populist, were I do nothing but shit on my government and its elites.
 * [[File:Ioist.png]] Ego-Progressivism - Individualism is ok, but I really do not like a whole lot here.

 * [[File:SomeCrusade.png]] SomeCrusaderism - Essentially, my opposite in almost everything that is still moderate. At least you seemingly oppose authoritarian regimes in the world, unlike some people in your camp. Outside of that, complete and utter barf ideology. (And, I have bad days too. Sorry if I was overly and unnecessary aggressive at times when I really shouldn't have been.)
 * [[File:SGS_Icon.png]] Savage Granny Smithism - One of the only good things about this ideology is its populism and democracy. Other than that, no.

 * [[File:PATS.png]] Pan-Asian Tridemism with Socialist Characteristics ([[File:PanAsian.png]]/[[File:Totalitarian.png]]/[[File:Statecap.png]]/[[File:XiJinpingThoughtf.png]]/[[File:CNNeocon.png]]) - Totalitarian dengoid, do I need to say more.
 * [[File:Heinrich.png]] Heinrich-Cheungism - Totalitarian larper.
 * [[File:R-i.png]] Neo-Bannnedism - Cringe fundamentalist theocrat and clerical fascist (yeah it's not up for debate you are a clerical fascist) who stands against progress. Although I'll give you SOME credit. Your original page inspired me to make my own so without you ever joining this wiki I would've never gotten inspired to make my own page.
 * [[File:Cheesenism_(PB).png]] Cheesenism - Authoritarian, wants sharia law unironically. I have nothing but bad things to say about this ideology.
 * [[File:Palos.png]] Palostiusism ([[File:Mansphere.png]]/[[File:Darwinist.png]]/[[File:React.png]]/[[File:Ingsocf.png]]) - HOLY SHIT GO OUTSIDE!!!! I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THIS IS ANYTHING BUT A LARP, YOU WANT CRIMETHINK TO BE A REAL THING AND PRIVACY TO BE NONEXISTANT??? AND YOU'RE SEXIST TOO.
 * ([[File:Rwsjw.png]]/[[File:Reactlib.png]]/[[File:Plcn2.png]]/[[File:Austrobert.png]]) - Very cringe Trumper who believes in just some flat out retarded stuff, and is pretty much the definiton of a right-wing SJW.
 * [[File:Chimp.png]] Silly Chimpism ([[File:Altr.png]]/[[File:Rwsjw.png]]/[[File:Corptism.png]]) - Atleast you can admit you're not a liberal. Still, basically a fash.
 * [[File:Based_Autism_Icon.png]] Based Autism (0/100) - Neo-nazi moment, bruh.
 * - A literal red fascist. Like bro, your ideology is legitimately so dystopian it's actually concerning. Marxist-Leninism was cringe enough as it is but Nazbol? Cringe does not do justice to how bad this ideology is.
 * [[File:Mikolayism_Pixel.png]] Mikolayism - Now, this is why playing too much paradox games is bad for your brain. Open strasserite and anti-semite who claims not to be racist while still supporting Otto Strasser. And thanks to people like you, I'm gonna create a multiethnic globalist corporation ran by the Jews, and there's nothing you can do to stop me!
 * [[File:Technototball.png]] Techno-Ultranationalism ([[File:Altr.png]]/[[File:Rwsjw.png]]/[[File:Corptism.png]]) - Now, you've gotten just, ever slightly more tolerable in terms of your ideology not being a totalitarian larper. But, that's basically it, average terminally online internet fascist, there's not a whole lot I can commit on, as this is my anti-thesis in almost every conceivable way, with the same amount of technophillia as quark. Not even your corporatist economy is good, because of its extreme dirigisme, which is too much for me. Also, I really don't like your stance on mix racing, for reasons that are obvious.
 * [[File:Nastyism_Icon.png]] Nastyism ([[File:Altr.png]]/[[File:Identi.png]]/[[File:Rwsjw.png]]/[[File:Guildsoc.png]]) - You are a Nazi. What do you expect me to say.
 * [[File:Pixil-frame-0(16).png]] Reactionary-Cheesenism - Touch some grass and go outside edgelord.
 * [[File:Xirlan-alt.png]] Xirlan Thought - As if being French wasn't bad enough, you had to make it worse with this Monarchist crap. Also, expects to remain in the European Union after this ideology would be hypothetically instated? Also, you're proof normal secularism doesn't go far enough.
 * [[File:Pixil-frame-0(27).png]] New Model Of Cheesenism - Economic centrism doesn't make up for the rest of this garbage can of a self-insert that is still very horrible.
 * [[File:NekoqingBolsh.png]] Nekoqingist Bolshevism - Yeah there's nothing positive I can say about a totalitarian state capitalist socialist, so I won't say anything at all.

Neutral

 * International - Too bland, but not the worst.
 * Cyberpunk - Futuristic aesthetics get old after a while.
 * Steampunk - Meh, not terrible. But, the 1900s have long since passed.
 * [[File:AestheticPaleocon.png]] 50's Vintage Aesthetic - Again, not horrible. Some aspects of this are pretty nice like the old cars, which cars now feel bland. But, the time has ultimately passed.

 * [[File:Mansphere.png]] Incelcore - Why?
 * -| Quadrants =

Based
- Extremism on both sides are cringe, and incorporating the best from the left-wing and the right-wing has shown to create the happiest societies.

- Centrist economics and respect for individual liberty? What can I say, but, sheer, and utter, BASEDNESS! I would be this in all reality, but I still think the state is necessary to a certain degree to keep people safe, which is why I'm center-lib on the civic axis. But, you're the second most respectable quadrant on the political compass. However, please get rid of the anprims, these guys give this quadrant a bad name as people only associate it with "reject civillization, return to monke".

Bringe
-Some of you guys can be based, like socberts. But, outside of that, way too capitalistic. However, civil liberties and non-interventionism are based. So, basically just a rightoid with a brain. However, there is a fairly mixed amount of you guys who are conservative as well, which is just awful. At least you don't want to enforce that through overbearing state mandates.

- Some of you guys can be based, like the market socialists. However, get rid of the Marxists and other commies please. Outside of that, not the worst, even if I prefer capitalism. Classical social democracy is respectable.

- Socialism if it wasn't shit, some of you guys are quite based. And, I would prefer this over a libright society, but that doesn't say a whole lot, as at least I would have my basic needs covered and wouldn't be left to fend for myself. And, a lot of you guys by into this pointless intersectional idpol culture war bs, which is pretty cringe. At least your quadrant is overall progressive.

Cringe
- Interventionism, free-market capitalism, and neoliberal imperialism. YOU SHOULD KILL YOURSELF, NOW!

- DIEDIEDIE! There is no redeeming qualities about this quadrant, from all the Dengists to the shitty state "socialists" and the like. This has failed all the time, with no respect for political rights or individual freedom under a stagnant system that helps no one, just as bad as free-market capitalism.

- Slightly more tolerable than Authleft, due to the market allocation of goods. But, even that doesn't say anything when many of you guys, when you aren't first-world neolibs, are cuckservatives who take both too far. Some even supporting monarchy and other forms of anti-democratic governments. Overall, with many of you guys being authoritarian conservatives, this has to be one of the worst quadrants to have existed.

- Sadly, your centrist economics will not make up for everything else. There have been some forces of good within this quadrant, but many of you guys are Neo-Nazis, and social collectivism is cringe and helps nobody.

- Lmao, fuck off pedo scum. You're not needed anywhere in the political compass.

Rocksism - Add me please?

Thoughts on cultural views of hardline MLs?

XarTario - Can you add my current self-insert and former self-insert? NOTE: They're pretty similar, but with several differences and similarities. You can compare them to each other if you want too.

 * - Add my self-insert please, I added yours in my page
 * - I was getting around to adding self-inserts now, so you'll be added.


 * I added you, pls add me -
 * - You've been added.

Why do you think that ataturk's secularism went too far and he committed genocide against ethnic minorities?
 * - Wait wait wait, I just have to know, is my ideology or Reactionary Cheesenism worse in your opinion? You said that they were both your antithesis and I wanna know who is the most antithesis-ish.
 * - Well, cheesenism because of his attitude towards things like technology and religion. Outside of that, you guys are on par with each other
 * - I have added you. So add me pls.
 * - Done.
 * [[File:SCT.png]] Sílas Carrasco - I have added you to my relationships. Can you add me too?
 * - Will do.
 * Add me.
 * - Sure.
 * - Well because I said, I'm not fond of authoritarianism or forcing people to live certain life styles, and that's what Laicism basically goes against. Even if getting rid of all the theocratic ottoman crap was based. And, on the genocide bit, he was involved in policies that were directly related to what I am talking about.

I find it necessary for the state to impose a certain way of life in order to modernize the nation. Modernization does not always come from the bottom. It is necessary for this. It wasn't enough to get rid of all the theocratic Ottoman nonsense. The Ottoman dynasty and caliphate had to be completely liberated. It has nothing to do with genocide. Atatürk did not commit genocide as you think. If I were in Atatürk's place, I would secularize faster and harder. I would time it. I would crush the reactionaries. I wouldn't switch to democracy. I would establish a dictatorship. It completely erases religious nationalism. I would substitute extreme civic nationalism.

Pantheonism - Yo!


 * Ronwelltarianism_icon.png Ronwelltarianism - Your turn to add me. I would love to see your thoughts on my foreign policy & my abortion policy on young girls thing to the relationship thing.
 * - Added.
 * Ronwelltarianism_icon.png Ronwelltarianism - Thanks... Although to be honest, I was waiting for someone to criticize my abortion policy like I was forcing a child to give birth since you're pro-choice although I'm allowing states to decide on abortion law as a libertarian anti-statist way for me to do and I'm fine with pro-choice people being consistent against the vaccine mandates. LOL!
 * - Well, once again. I'm completely unsure as to why you're comparing two things which are not comparable, and is not contradictory. As, vaccine mandates have been used for a long time for the eradication of diseases, you can thank being mandated for a flu shot as a child for why you don't have an adverse reaction to the flu and other diseases related.
 * [[File:OwfBall.png]] Owfism - My ideology changed, what do you think?
 * - Very based.
 * [[File:OwfBall.png]] Owfism Can you change my section of self-insert relations?
