Your political Ideology

Might as well call yourself a Communist ! "The nearly century-old Communist Party USA hasn't run a presidential candidate since 1984 and softened its ideology following the collapse of the Soviet Union. It does not advocate the violent overthrow of the government, but rather socialism through the ballot box. Bachtell, who lives in Chicago, says the party's 5,000 or so members and Sanders are similar in ideology."A lot of what he says we've been advocating for a long time – redistribution of wealth, public universal health care, free college tuition," he says. "The bulk of our membership is backing and supporting and voting for Sanders." 1

Communists support him. Yet you say right there there have "softened their ideology". So we're not talking about Soviet communists were talking about 21st century statists. They want social control over all industries. Of course theyre going to support Bernie. He's the only one proposing any new social programs at all. But that doesn't make him a communist. He doesn't want total state control. A bunch of white supremacists support trump. That doesn't make him a white supremacist. 2

I am an Independent. I've voted both democrat and Republican in the past. Ideologically I guess I am a little to the left of center. I am not as socialist as Obama. I would have voted for Kasich of maybe Rubio in this current pending election. I don't like Hillary. Sanders is too socialist for me. I wish Biden would've run, I would vote for him. Independent. I'm not kidding. The moment you label yourself or accept a label from someone else you have surrendered a little bit of your own thought process and objectivity to follow whatever that label implies. I'd simplify my political beliefs as: Let people live their own lives. Give all people a fair shot. You have to give in order to get. Manage your resources. Manage your services. That list of beliefs is not uniquely limited to any particular one of the political ideologies on the Wikipedia page. 1

Hindutva and Hindu Nationalism are the ideologies I support, and are reflected by the BJP of India. They teach acceptance of all paths and secularism, even though they technically are a religion based ideology. Hinduism is just so practical and accepting that it makes sense to have a government that uses ideals of Hinduism. It is hard to catagegorize most people to just one ideology. I guess if I had to categorize myself I would have to be a neo marxist with some leanings towards liberal socialism. Governments= Enforcement agencies Living with our technocracy is and always has been an inescapable fact of life, and the problem of authority can corrupt any kind of system we might devise. Thinking in terms of the various isms (communism capitalism anarchism etc) confuses us more than it helps IMO |
