Conservative Posadism

Conservative Posadism is an ideology based around the idea that final victory of freedom and capitalism over socialism will be achieved trough nuclear war. It is generally based around United States general Douglas MacArthur, who requested nuclear weapons to be used in the Korean war.

History
Douglas MacArthur was an American military leader who served as General of the Army for the United States, as well as a field marshal to the Philippine Army. He was Chief of Staff of the US Army during the 1930s, and he played a prominent role in 5 wars and major conflicts throughout his lifetime; The US occupation of Veracruz during the Mexican Revolution, the Philippine-American War, World War I, Pacific Theater during WWII, and the Korean War. When the US colony/protectorate Commonwealth of the Philippines achieved semi-independent status in 1935, MacArthur was assigned the role of field marshall and supervised the creation of the Philippine Army. MacArthur would later play a leading role in the Philippines campaign (1944-1945) the American, Mexican, Australian, and Filipino campaign to defeat and expel the Imperial Japanese forces occupying the Philippines during World War II. After Japan's surrender following the Atomic Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, MacArthur oversaw the Allied Military Occupation of Japan as Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers, a position he had been assigned by President  Harry S. Truman. The Allied Occupation of Japan marked the first time in history Japan had been occupied by a foreign power. The occupation would see Japan transforming from a military dictatorship to a parliamentary democracy, strongly aligned with US interests for decades to come. At MacArthur's insistence, Emperor Hirohito would remain on the imperial throne without being charged for any war crimes. However, the new American-written constitution, ensured that the emperor's theoretically vast powers became strictly limited by law. He was also involved in granting immunity to the war criminal and microbiologist Shirō Ishii who was the director of Unit 731, a biological warfare unit that had engaged in human experimentation, which resulted in the deaths of over 10,000 Chinese and Russian civilians and prisoners of war. During the Korean War, MacArthur was put in charge of the US-led coalition of UN troops and drove the invading  North Korean troops back toward the Chinese border. In November 1950 China  intervened in the conflict and sent troops acrossed the North Korean border driving the U.S. troops back into  South Korea. MacArthur then asked President Truman for permission to bomb communist China. Truman refused this request and removed MacArthur from his command for insubordination.

Economy
Conservative posadism believes in free market economy, with as little regulation as possible. He still likes taxes tho, which he all spends on military, weapon research or optionally space research (Rocket is a Rocket after all). He is not a big fan of social welfare.

State
Despite his authoritarian tendencies, Conservative Posadism loves democracy. His idea of a state is on the verge of regular democracy and authoritarian democracy.

Social issues
Conservative Posadism believes in more moderate form of conservatism, but is not opposed to such concepts as gay rights or rights for ethnic minorities (Mainly because he can then brag about how his people are more free then in other countries). Despite this he is often seen as racist because his hostility towards many Asian ideologies, which he frequently clashes with.

Personality and Behaviour
Conservative posadism is loud, arrogant and extremely patriotic. He doesn't need much provocation to enter a conflict.
