    @krishna_bound how are you not a communist

    Or at least not sympathetic to the cause

    I’m sympathetic to most communist causes (except like most western ones) but at the end of the day I think socialism works for a different reason than most people who identify as communist do
    I don’t really disagree with most underlying principals from Marx in terms of economics but the way I see it applied I think differentiates from most self-identified communists essentially
    I’ve mentioned it before but the existence of superstructural issues w/o base solutions I also think plays a large role in this thought process. I also question the nature of things like contradictions as opposed to natural phenomena.
    None of this is inherently dispelling of the ideology but group labels carry wider implications in any society and I live in the west, and the political action & policy ideals I subscribe to differentiate too much from the norm of said group for me to identify in that manner outwardly

    Most reddit talking point is "I'd like to drink a beer with George W Bush he seems like someone you can have fun with"

    I basically think the sociocultural politics that traditionally right wing people idealize only works under leftist economic/government systems. Palestinian forces for example are only considered left wing because of relative geopolitical alignments and historical implications. Everything about them is more genuinely right wing than anything any western rightoid will ever accomplish

    So basically you think cultural conservatism could only be maintained with left-wing economic policy?

    It’s not really just about cultural conservatism in term of arbitrary cultural facets or morals but yeah if you want to make it easier so I don’t write a wall of text
