    just because an ideology predates the left right spectrum (quite flawed as it is but this isn’t the problem), doesn’t mean it can be put in there.

    fascism and democracies predated the left-right spectrum, would you say they can’t be there

      The political compass has both an X and a Y dimension, you know. As it happens, the Y dimension exists almost specifically because of anarchy.

        oh god, don’t bring even more arbitrary BS into here.

        the phase space of vague stuff like political ideology would have an arbitrary large number of parameters, not whatever 2 you see in memes.

        Is the society so painfully brainrotted that people genuinely think memes are realities?

          Weird to hear this from the person who moments ago was arguing that there’s no problem projecting this concept on an even smaller number of dimensions.
