I like the spirit of this meme, but I don’t think that caring about people and the planet is sufficient to define a political philosophy? (IMO it is necessary though!) I.e. there are lots of social democrats who care about people and the planet just as much as we do but there’s still a massive difference between our politics.
Something that defines you 100% will require a lot more words.
This is a pretty good foundation though.It’s possible that the differences among those wanting to do good for everyone is what bottlenecks progress. While we all fight over HOW to make the same goals we share happen and not much gets done, the ones who don’t care about what their actions do make their own progress because it’s easier for them to agree on how to take and destroy.
People don’t even agree on what good is, so there’s no way everyone can agree on what to do in order to do good. Many conservatives oppose progress because they don’t even agree that it is progress. They see a very sick society where the family has all but disappeared, social institutions have fallen apart, and the government can no longer be trusted.
Check it out, even including the partisan dimension of people trusting the government more when their party controls the White House, the overall trend is strongly negative. Just compare! Republicans trusted the government of LBJ — a Democrat in the White House for the immediate aftermath of the Kennedy assassination — far more than they trusted the government during Trump’s first term!
Democrats have also lost faith in government and not even Obama was able to rekindle it for them. This is a very disgruntled, low trust society!
More like, i care more about the people on the exact opposite of the world from where i exist, rather than the people in my vicinity.
Please keep downvoting, this is what it sounds like to those that have the same voting power as you 🙃
Jesse, what the hell are you talking about.jpeg
You keep losing elections. Part of the reason is exemplified by this meme.
The people this is talking about usually aren’t big on elections.
Who’s talking about elections? Ever heard of an anarchist partaking in elections? O.o
Oh yes. I forgot that you and you losers think that reaching an agreement on things is more of a hassle than it’s worth.
Ah yes. The people who literally advocate for consensus-based decision making don’t want to reach agreements. /s
Seriously: You should stop trying to be smug about stuff you don’t have the slightest idea about. You’re jpst embarassing yourselft.
Consesus based decision making, without a deciding organ or government. GL there 🙃
It’s like libertarians, but even stupider.
oh i have a deciding organ if you want 😏
