Vice is said to be headed for bankruptcy

Conservatives: Civilization vs. Barbarism Libertarians: Freedom vs. Coercion Progressives: Oppressors vs. the Oppressed

His thesis was that polarization has been increasing because there is often no natural policy alignment across these axes, even while many would probably agree on some fundamental Western tenets of rights and justice.

I agree with personal issues. What is the difference between societal and politic issues?

This topic is liberals founding a media company and one of them already being a controversial liberal who was scratched revealed and went mask off as a fascist. A cliche.

Good job at finding a framework with your Qs! An issue is they are vague. I tried answering your questions and they don’t answer what my politics or principles are.

I wonder if the perfect combo is to include policy questions along w/ some steel-manning. The current questions don’t take the Overton window in consideration. Anecdotal, I have yet to see someone’s [future] politics without hearing their policy ideas.

> A person can shift around "on the issues", viewed purely as left-right, while still remaining true to themself on these dispositional axes.

I’m still curious to what end any of this? What is it showing for people in general? Personally I would gain nothing about knowing someone’s principles or politics from those questions.

Finally the one thing that is entirely left out is capitalism. What left right are we discussing? Where does believing in capitalism lie on this? Without being specific and steel manning, people of every political disposition will sometimes answer the questions the same.

For instance—I see such huge parallels between today’s progressive left and the “moral majority” types that I really can’t functionally separate them but for the gods and scriptures driving the moralities that they preach. At least from the perspective I see them from, which is probably best described as “classic liberalism”, they are essentially identical. It’s also the reason that both of those movements tended to view classical liberalism as anathematic. Their perspective seems to be is that intolerance of outside beliefs and thoughts except their own is their most important quality, so they work to suppress.

In fact I can’t even find Vice being created by a single far leftist.

I also only found one or two sources denying that Proud Boys is not [far] right wing. Including sympathizers.

Do you have any knowledge on what type of [far] leftist Gavin or any Proud Boy was?

Also perhaps I’m not as knowledgeable. How is it wrapping around if different people are reacting? Antifa is about anti fascism. It isn’t about being far left. Antifa isn’t only anarchist or communist.

Any information you or any one else has would help me a ton. Id love to add this topic to my substack. But I don’t want to repeat what you wrote without it making sense.

It’s so annoying when Global North people think occupied stolen land is fine!!

Some people still to this day believe Hawaii and Puerto Rico and every other territory the US holds is American territory like Crimea is Russian.

Thank you so much for understanding the point isn’t to single out Russia. It’s to see how the entire Global North thrives by less violently colonizing and stealing resources, people, and territory from the rest of the world.

Any outlet that neglects it for the usual opinion pieces and soft news coverage is competing with every clickbait content farm out there, without the low operating costs to make it worth it.
