Theoretically the ideal is that everyone is nice to each other and no government is needed. Once you step into the real world the only thing that matters is finding the government which works the best.

Fojar38 posted:This is literally impossible. No it's not this simple. Part of the problem is that our language intertwines a few things into the word ideology. Part of ideology is a person's overarching ideas, goals and moral guidelines. We can't operate as humans without these. But the other aspect is the implementation of those goals and the extent to which we allow utility to enter the equation. So while we can never separate politics, or existence for that matter from ideology, we can (and must) still classify people or ideas as being more or less ideological. This is what lets us identify the ideology of say strict "non aggression" libertarianism as being outside the norm. Because while most people share the goal "reduce aggression" they are far less "ideological" in how they want that to be achieved.

Fojar38 posted:Can someone explain to me the difference between Libertarianism and Communism because both seem to have an endgame consisting of "and then everyone is nice to each other and no more state is needed." [Coming off a 1 week probation for probing this question] They're for idiots looking for a diversion from real life.

Effectronica posted:The best political system depends on what you consider best. Misanthropic types, like sex tourists, will consider representative democracy the apex because it significantly impedes the populace from having political power while retaining an illusion of them having a say. Violent and vindictive people will prefer dictatorships, which institutionalize the opportunity for them to exercise their desires. You really are one of my favorite posters.
