Mel Magazine: Inside the World of Weird Catholic Twitter — and the 'Rad Trads'

there's some overlap between the modern day extremely online trad Catholics and the leftist millennial Tradinistas who are definitely not conservatives. on the other hand,

Tradinistas are weird wasp converts who want to cling to a sense of authenticity the church provides (lmao) while holding generally leftwing views, in my experience

I find them cringey ubela larpers but they mean well

Oh boy, time to post about my favorite meme ideology: Posadism.

Posadism is the belief that nuclear war is good, because it will somehow trigger the worker's revolution, and they will, somehow, win socialism in a post-apocalyptic radioactive hellworld.
Also, they believe in communist aliens which is pretty cool.
This is all true though?

the monarchist i know, who shall not be named as that is apparently "harassment", clarified that he wants a monarchy like the modern uk one, i.e. a giant tax scam for a noble family that serves no purpose.

Being a constitutional monarchist is even dumber than a return to divine right. At least with the latter you can delude yourself that feudalism was somehow better than capitalism. We have examples of constitutional monarchy's everywhere* & their royals serve as essentially parasitic artifacts. They're not even better behaved than any given capitalists given what we know about the windsors behavior

Wasn't Georgism explicitly taken up by some southeast Asian countries?

Taiwan is big on it iirc

Re: monarchists from page 2

I decided to check out the monarchist subreddit, and some of them seem squeamish about enforcing their trad values using government enforcement. It seems like those ones in particular are just larping for the aesthetics and don’t understand their own philosophy in regards to the purpose of monarchy and the relation of power.

Which is a good thing they don’t understand since monarchism is one of the spookier subcultures

Spooky in what way? The monarchists I've come across are all atomized nerds

I'm sort of mutualist. I believe a free market of competing firms is the best economic system but those firms should be worker-owned. Also a lot of instances of capital, like rentiering, usury and intellectual property all take more effort to maintain societally than allowing their more natural alternatives like use-ownership of real estate and free data. I see capitalism as a form of anti-meritocratic economic inertia because of its tendency toward monopoly, and I think it's simply more efficient to reduce that by being socialist than to mitigate it indirectly with social democratic reforms

in short I've got a centrist mindset but reached economic conclusions that are considered leftist
