The Ongoing Adventures of Phrost on Twitter

If you are going to pick a stereotype to tread the path of power. You should probably commit to it though.

Then sacrificing your moral compas to gain power was a waste of time.

I don’t think you actually understand US domestic politics tbqh if you think what I have written here when I wasn’t shitposting is Free Marketā„¢ Conservatism.

So in your ā€œpick the system that gives you an easier lifeā€ system you are arguing that you are in power?

I am not discussing politics. I am discussing ideology. Which is .uch more interesting.

Ideology doesn’t really matter, to be frank. But if you want to discuss ideology, I’m not a Free Marketā„¢ Conservative inc. type and never have been. They are worse than the people who see me as an enemy because they are just the outer party.

The thing is you are not really creating a free society. That would involve a society that can incorporate other beliefs.

And you are specifically against that as a method to create this winning system. Where they are wrong. You are right and there is no room for difference of opinion.(pretty much which is where the whole moral bankruptcy idea comes in to play)

So it doesn’t matter which system you use. You are not doing anything good for anyone. And you are not creating freedom. All that matters is which system you can benefit more from.

What do you mean by ā€œfreeā€ in this instance? Do you think those of us who live in the US today live in a ā€œfreeā€ society?

Well that won’t work. It sullies the waters if you start incorporating left leaning ideology like enforcing baby formula for children. Next thing you know you will be enjoying a Buz Lightyear movie.

Its a scale. Being able to determine your own ideology rather than having to choose one should theoretically be more free.

I think you’re getting too caught up on categorizing the politics of real people into a neat package of social and policy preferences delineated from other distinct packages of social and policy preferences. Real people and real life don’t work like that.

I don’t care if, for example, the market isn’t ā€œfreeā€ under my ideal system. We don’t even live in a free market right now anyway. So if a corporation is doing something that harms the well being of the nation they should be stopped and/or punished for doing so. I’m not big on ā€œfree tradeā€ either. Not because I don’t understand it but because I do understand it and I don’t care solely about GDP growth and trade specialization.

At the same time I don’t care for the LGBT coalition grooming children either. And I’m not a supporter of the Catholic church so if clergy get caught grooming children they go to the gulag too.

If you’re interested in learning how this works in other contexts, look into Catholic Liberation Theology in Latin America in the 20th century. Multiple explicitly Marxist and Maoist revolutionary movements followed a Liberation Theology thought and were also explicitly Catholic. Or look into the Strasserites within the NSDAP.

You can determine your own ideology regardless of where and when you live. That doesn’t mean you will have power but the inside of your head is free.

You’re a fascist, we get it.

Are trying to be coy about it?

I’m an antifascist. If you disagree with me you are definitionally a fascist.

Lol

You are literally describing facism.

Ie. Everything is acceptable as long as it is in the best interest of the state. As determined by your Authority of course.

I’m sure you would gladly take a handy from the Vatican if it helped you secure your political aims and maintain power.

I didn’t write ā€œstateā€.

Do you know what idea the word ā€œstateā€ is referring to?

The human community that (successfully) claims the monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory? Nation and State are not synonymous.

They are when you’re a fascist.

It’s a good thing I’m an antifascist then. You should probably stop disagreeing with me, someone might think you’re a fascist.
