Aceffism

Aceffism is the ideology and self-insert of the user Aceff. The ideology is culturally progressive, economically center-right to right-wing, diplomatically internationalist, civically liberal to libertarian, and extremely based.

Aceff self-identifies as a libertarian, however he is notably different from right-libertarians since he doesn't support laissez-faire capitalism or is against welfare, making him a social libertarian. Along with his philosophy. Since libertarians believe in natural rights, while he believes in human rights because of his liberal ideology. This would make him a liberaltarian.

Philosophy

Metaphysics

The universe is matter. Anything that is real is real. Anything that doesn't exist doesn't exist. There are no ghosts, spirits, deities, ect. This is the metaphysical basis of Secular Humanism, I believe the scientific method is the best and only way at observing the universe. Along with this, we as humans have the liberty to use our autonomy how we choose to, meaning that we have free will.

Ontology

Aceff subscribes strictly to the ontological views of naturalism, which is were his material worldview comes from. As stated previously, this is the basis of secular humanism and leads to the rejection of anything relating to spirituality or gods.

Sociology

With my ideology being progressivism, I subscribe to the idea of progress. Which is within the context of progressivism, a social movement that seeks to improve the human condition through societal progress. I believe that progress is the best way we as humans can improve humanity.

Religious

I'm an atheist, I reject religions and the concept of god as things that hold any universal value because they aren't real and are of no authority to govern how an individual acts. You are responsible for your own moral actions and not some deity or "sacred" religious textbook. With this comes naturally the complete rejection of all spirituality, which is why my religious beliefs are positive atheism, I'm not going to suspend disbelief on things that aren't real and don't exist in reality. Since religions only hold back your individual liberty and should be rejected in their entirety to fully liberate the individual. Religions and supernaturalism are superstitutious nonsense which are merely distractions from my personal pursuits and the material world. However, I would not describe myself an anti-theist, since I'm more concerned with religion and don't really care if someone believes in god, I would describe myself as anti-religious since religions are nonsense that should be combatted, but if someone wants to believe in god even if it's stupid then it's ok.

Epistemology

My epistemology comes from constructivism, which is a view that human interactions and society are what determine knowledge. I naturally reject social constructs that hold back my ethics, since these are dangerous to a person's liberty and must be done away with to unlock the fullest potential of the individual. This would include things like: gender, religion, and every other pointless things society tries to make you conform to.

Ethics

My ethical theories stem from consequentialism, which states that actions should be looked at the consequences they cause. And more specifically, acting in your own self-interest. This would be known as ethical individualism, which differs from stirnerite egoism since Max Stirner rejected being moral all together while I believe my ethics are relative. And on another note, this is were my welfare ethics come from as well.

Morality

Now, you may call me a massive degenerate for my moral ethics, and that's because I'm a hedonist. This is a form of philosophical individualism that is based off of consequentialist ethics which judges actions based on being right or wrong on how much pleasure an action produces. Now, pleasure means a lot of different things. For me specifically, I'm talking about masturbation and the euphoric feeling when you orgasm. What I enjoy masturbating to the most is hentai (well technically ecchi since I usually don't watch things that depict hardcore depictions of sex, although I sometimes do), which is a genre of anime that is pornography. Things I like in particular are monster girls like catgirls and ect. Why? Because I think it's cute.

Praxis

I would use reforms to achieve my ideal society which would make me a pacifist. I don't believe revolution benefits society since revolution in a since is just another attempt at reforming the system but in a faster way, and even then is still prone to the same issues. Along with this, it leads to your individualism being lost since you have to subject yourself to a mob rule. Although, this only applies in cases were the democratic process is respected, in places were this isn't the case then revolution would be acceptable.

Aestetics

My Aestetics would be primarily centered around media like anime, and even more specifically cat people due to him liking them a lot due to reasons that won't be stated again. Now, this isn't just the creator of the page being horny, but he does legitimately like the aestetics so it would be used in his ideology.

Ideological Beliefs

Culture

Aceffism is a culturally progressive ideology, believing that traditions only hold back one's individualism and should be rejected and instead replaced for a culture that is more open and non-conforming. He supports gay rights, transgender rights, non-binary recognition, sexual freedom, abortion rights, feminism, technological development, secularization, expansive civil liberties, and a society were the legal system is based around the harm principle. So long as what your doing is victimless and not harming anyone else, you should be allowed to do whatever you want.

Feminism

Aceff supports the

individual autonomy of women and equality between both sexes, and identifies as a

feminist in this regard. His specific form of feminism would be

individualistic and

welfarist, making it

Social Libertarian Feminism. Both genders will be liberated from pointless things imposed to them by society like gender roles and free to do whatever they want since gender inequality doesn't contribute to a happy society nor is it good for individual liberty. He also believes that

radical feminists are a strawman of feminist philosophy used to discredit feminism as an ideology.

Abortion

Aceff is

pro-choice, and supports abortion being legal. Ideally, abortion would be legal with no exceptions. His support for abortion comes from his strong belief in

individual freedom. He believes that it's not the job of the government to decide whether or not a woman can abort a fetus. Scientifically speaking, abortion is not murder so it doesn't matter anyways. Ultimately, it's more beneficial for society that abortion access remains legal, with there being no point in forcing mothers or society to care for children that no one can afford so poverty and maternal death rates can be reduced. And on that note, he also believes that pre-natal screenings for disabilities such as down syndrome are ethical because they prevent unneeded suffering and should be allowed since it is the mothers choice at the end of the day as well from a

utilitarian point of view. He also supports

planned parenthood and it being funded by the government so its services stays operational since they play a critical role in offering abortion and other services like

transgender therapy.

Cultural Secularism

Aceff strongly supports the

societal decline of religion and the church in both public and governmental matters, making him an

anti-clericalist. His

anti-religious stances comes from how religions have been often used to suppress

individual rights and freedoms under the name of some "sacred" religious textbook, along with the fact that religions are superstitious nonsense that only hold humanity back. While he sees it as counter-productive to

enforce atheism on the population, he believes that the demystification of religion should take place through a

materialistic education. Then over time as religious influence begins to decline, religion can be a thing of the past. He supports a post-theistic society.

Queer Rights

Aceff strongly supports the rights of the

queer community, and believes that they should be given the same legal rights as everyone else since It's wrong to deprive people's rights away due to their sexuality. They would be given same-sex marriage, legal protections in relation to public and private employment. And on the topic of

pride month, he personally supports it because it increases the societal acceptance of gay people, although he does understand criticisms of it because companies that partake in them aren't always honest and are only profiting off of a progressive agenda instead of actually supporting the LGBT community. But overall, he believes that through pride parades and marches that the societal acceptance of gay people can happen at an accelerated rate since their rights have been suppressed throughout a lot of human history so this is one of the ways to make up for it and for

heteronormativity to disappear.

Transgender Rights

Aceff strongly supports

transgender rights, being a

transfeminist. Although he believes that gender reassignment surgery is like any other medical procedure and should be payed for, it should be made cheap so transgender people can go through an easy legal process of changing their desired gender. Also, the concept of gender is only societal, not biological. With this, he supports the legal recognition of

non-binary genders. Although, he believes that gender and sex are separate, he also is skeptical of

abolition of gender because cis people should still be able to identify as a man or a woman, but gender should be made more inclusive of non-conforming people.

Technological Acceleration

Aceff supports the

acceleration of developing technology to fix humanities issues relating to things such as the environment or economic issues. He believes that job automation is an overall net positive but can be negative as it can lower the amount of jobs so it should be offset by a UBI which I will get into my economic section. Although, once transhumanism is possible, it should be entirely voluntary and we should also work on making

cat people a real thing.

Pornography and Prostitution

Aceff believes that

both pornography and prostitution should be legal because of his support for

sexual freedom and

individual rights. Along with sex work being real work and pornography being

freedom of speech that doesn't harm anyone else. He also supports its legality for personal reasons if you haven't read his

moral philosophy. So long as it's all consensual, although the sex industry does have legitimate issues that should be tackled like trafficking and abuse, so it should regulated to prevent those things from happening.

Euthanasia

Aceff supports the legalization of

euthanasia since he believes it's someone's choice to get euthanized or not, although it would be regulated to a certain extent due to how abusable it can be. But, if someone chooses to do so with good reason, then society shouldn't bare the cost of someone who voluntary chooses to end their own life nor should that person continue to suffer.

Gun Rights

Aceff supports the right to own

firearms since they are essential towards protecting private property, although he supports some regulations on them to keep them from getting into the hands of bad actors. But for the most part, guns should be easily obtainable.

Liberal Eugenics

Aceff is a supporter of

eugenics, although not in the way you may think. His support for eugenics comes from his technological advancement support. He believes that once humanity has reached the point were genes can be edited in the womb then you should be able to edit your babies traits to make them perfect. Although this wouldn't be enforced, rather an option. This would be called

liberal eugenics. This is also were is support for

abortion and

euthanasia comes in as well. He believes it's the best way at reducing the amount of suffering that sick and disabled people have to go through in society that is completely voluntary.

Economy

Aceffism supports a social market economy with a moderate welfare state combined with economic liberalism. His support for free-market capitalism comes from the belief that the individual should be allowed to make their own economic decisions, and that the government is inherently ineffective at doing such to a certain extent outside of the limited services it would provide to enfranchise the poor. Along with this, he realizes the issue with land hording and supports a land value tax, although supports landlords believing that they provide a valuable service. With this, he's not blind to the fact that climate change is happening, so he believes that environmentally friendly policies such as investments into green energy and carbon taxes should be put into effect. Although, environmental protection and economic growth should be balanced with each other. So, he is firmly capitalist and believes it's the best economic system to exist. These economic views fall within the range to being fiscally center-right to right-wing. His specific economic thought that he subscribes to is the chicagoan school due to his neoclassical economics.

Social Market Economy

Aceff supports a

social market economy, which is an socioeconomic model that is rooted in

free-market capitalism while supporting

limited economic intervention with a limited

welfare state to ensure that competition stays fair and monopolies don't form.

Land Value Tax

Aceff supports a

land value tax, making him a

georgist. His support for a LVT is because he believes it would be one of the best ways to fund the welfare state while having no dead weight loss, even Friedman himself said that it was the "least bad tax". So, it would be implemented to tackle the issue of land hording while using it to fund our economic programs. Although,

landlords provide a service that is still important and should stay, given they are regulated so none of the above happens.

Welfare State

Aceff believes that the

welfare state needs to be reformed to enfranchise the poor while not being a drain on economic productivity. He supports a selective welfare state. Along with this, he supports

universal basic income, which is a socioeconomic policy that would give all citizens a minimum financial stimulus. Although, he would only implement UBI once job automation has began to take its toll of the workforce to compensate for unemployment.

Taxation

Aceff supports

low taxes, believing that high taxes only push out business and therefore economic growth with it. Although, he does support the welfare state to a limited degree, so taxes would have to be at least a little higher to account for that. Taxes would be around 20% of earned income ideally. Citizens would pay a flat tax, he doesn't see any point in punishing those who have earned money especially when they are what bring economic productivity, you can see this in California were taxes get raised on businesses and then those businesses move out causing taxes to be raised on regular people to account for the tax loss from those businesses moving out of the state. That is something which should be avoided.

Inflation

Aceff believes that

inflation must be as low as possible to guarantee economic stability and drive economic growth. Ideally, inflation would be

~1% annually.

Labor Unions

Aceff is mixed on

labor unions. On one hand, he doesn't discredit the fact that unions are what gave a lot of the rights to worker's we have now, but on the other how they can become corrupt to serve their own interests and not the workers. This stifles market innovations and economic growth, and can reduce the autonomy of the worker as well since collective bargaining doesn't always have the best interest of all workers. He believes they should be allowed to exist to a limited degree, but would prefer alternative ways since he views them as slow and getting in the way of economic growth.

Business Model

Aceff supports the traditional

capitalist business model were there are workers who are guided by bosses, although he believes some

workplace democracy could be implemented to give workers more democratic control over the workplace. Outside of that, bosses know what's best for their workers.

Diplomacy

Aceffism is an internationalist ideology, and supports intergovernmental organizations like the United Nations and pan-nationalist regional alliances like the European Union. He believes these organizations are necessary for the upholding of the liberal based world order. So as you can imagine, he strongly opposes populism and protectionism, believing that globalization has been largely a net positive since it has drastically decreased poverty and made goods cheaper to produce. This would make his foreign policy aligned with liberal internationalism, believing that the liberal states of the world must unite to counter the illiberal states and eventually offset the balance of power those states have to eventually use said intergovernmental organizations to integrate each other border's to form a world government. Despite this, he believes that patriotism can be a uniting force for good, and would be built off of everything previously mentioned with it being a kind of panhuman patriotism.

World Federalism

Aceff is supporter of the

world federalist movement, which is a social movement which seeks to unite all countries of the world into a

world government. His support for this movement comes from his

Panhumanism, we as humans all come from the same place and need to work together instead of dividing to save the future of humanity. The only way to do that is as previously mentioned.

Panhuman Identity

Aceff is a

panhumanist, which is the concept of an affiliation with the humankind through some sort of legislative structure that allows all technological and economic development to be for the benefit of the people. That's were his support for

world federalism comes from. To further

globalize and unity the world, a

single human identity would have to be formed. With this, he believes that concepts such as

race,

ethnicity,

religion, and all other pointless things that divide humanity should eventually be made obsolete and replaced with a

world citizen identity in which people can take

pride in.

Pax Liberalism

Aceff plans to achieve

world peace and a

world government through

liberalism, he believes that

liberal democracy is the most effective government because it has created one of the most peaceful periods in human history. The only way to continue that is by spreading this mode of government throughout the world to achieve this

world federation. This makes his foreign policy aligned with

liberal internationalism. He supports the

liberal international order and a

pro-western foreign policy. You could argue this makes his foreign policy

neo-imperial but he believes the hegemony of the liberal world should be eventually replaced for a panhuman hegemony.

European Union

Aceff supports the pan-nationalist organization of the

European Union and is a

European federalist, which is a movement that seeks to use the European Union's governmental organizations to merge its member states residing in it into a one federal state. He believes the European Union has played a critical role in the economic development of Europe and believes this would secure its future against foreign aggressors, he's a supporter of the party

Volt Europa. As you can imagine then, he strongly opposes the rise of populism within Europe, seeing it as detrimental to European unity used by a tool of strongmen who use it to enrich themselves while fooling the population with false hopes.

Zionism

Aceff supports the continued exist of Israel as a state, and is a

Zionist. He supports Israel over Palestine because he believes that Palestine is a backwards shithole that has no real identity and therefore has no legal claim to the land that they occupy. Also, Israel is the only democratic state in the Middle East that respects things like woman's rights, so I will take that any day of the week than the shitty backwards countries right besides it which respect none of that. He believes that a lot of anti-Zionists are motivated by anti-semitism.

Environmental Globalization

Aceff, being an

environmentalist ideology, supports

globalizing environmental efforts to combat the issue of climate change. Since he sees international law and upholding it as the up most importance for fighting global warming, all states of the world need to be pressured into following these green laws or face punishment. This is the only realistic way we can lower C02 emissions and fossil fuel usuage.

Economic Globalization

Aceff believes that

globalization is inevitable and for the better, so he strongly opposes

protectionism and

neo-mercantilism seen with the rise of

populism. Although, he realizes that a globalized economy has its downsides, and should be regulated to prevent the worse of neoliberal globalization. Hence, globalizations effects on labor rights, he realizes that it is necessary to implement some protections into free-trade deals to protect the environment and worker's rights. However, with all of this in mind, he largely supports globalization when it's done right.

Human Rights

Aceff, being a

liberal, supports

human rights and it being enforced. He believes that human rights are universal and need to be upheld if a

pan-human society is to ever be realized. These rights would be based off of liberal values if it wasn't obvious with the core justification being philosophical humanism.

Galacticism

Aceff supports

space colonialism and believes that it's important that once humanity unifies that we turn to other planets to gather resources and to expand our population on. This would take place once we have the technology to do so, this is more of an end goal of my ideology.

Government

Aceffism strongly values democracy and the will of the people. He supports a combination of liquid democracy, e-democracy, scientocracy, secularism, and direct democracy. His government would be liberal democratic and based on protecting the people while not infringing on their rights, which makes him in between civically liberal and civically libertarian. How power would be administered would be through federal governance, since local governments will be the best at understanding their population.

Direct Democracy

Aceff strongly believes in the will of the people, and the only way to realize this is through a

direct democracy. Although, there would be elements of

semi-direct democracy in it as well since a pure direct democracy is not fully feasible.

Liquid Democracy

Aceff supports a

liquid democracy, which is a form of delegative democracy were electorates engage in decision making through direct participation and dynamic representation. This system utilizes elements from both

direct and

representative democracy.

Secularism

Aceff, while viewing religions as superstitious nonsense that only self-restrain an individual's freedom, is a

secular liberal and supports the

separation of church and state. Although, he himself strongly disapprove of religious influence, he sees it as counter-productive to try and enforce these views onto other people, which would be combatted through different means. Also, churches would be taxed to encourage people to not go to organized religion, since religion itself is an issue the main thing that needs to be tackled is organized religion in a way that doesn't directly infringe on the rights of people.

Civil Libertarianism

Aceff is a

civil libertarian, and supports significantly downsizing the government due to its constant violation of

human rights. Despite this, he disapproves of

anarchism, and believes the state should exist. But, the state should only be centralized enough to provide

goods and services to the population while

protecting their rights. Outside of that, the government should stay out of people's personal lives when no one's rights are being violated and most victimless crimes would be legalized since they are hard to enforce and are more offenses against the state than actual society itself. This would make his ideal government run off the principles of

classical liberalism.

Federalism

Aceff supports

Federalism as for his ideal way administrative power would be redistributed. He supports federalism over unitarianism because the United States is a federal state and a centralized government wouldn't work here, let alone as a form of government for the entire world once the world federation happens. So, governance would be done at the local level to meet the needs of the population.

E-Democracy

Aceff supports an

e-democracy combined with a

liquid and

direct democracy. He believes that once technology has developed enough, an e-democracy would be feasible and secure to do and would make the democratic process a whole lot easier. Although, this type of democracy would only be implemented whenever technology has reached that point. But whenever it has, technology would play a critical role in the democratic process in making an direct democracy possible on this large of a scale.
