My opinions on things

  • Religion: I'm an agnostic atheist. I'm inclined to think there's no god and I'll live my life accordingly, but I don't think it's possible for us humans to truly confirm that until we're dead. I don't think religion is an excuse to deny basic science, though.
  • Environment: Anthropogenic climate change is real and is probably the biggest threat to humanity's survival and our way of living. Also, please stop burning down the Amazon Rainforest.
  • Democracy: While democracy has major flaws, no superior alternative to it exists. It's the only system which reliably puts corruption and abuse of power in check. This includes the economic sphere: there's no real democracy without economic democracy. Additionally, I don't believe a representative system properly represents the population, and a more hybrid system with elements of direct democracy would be more ideal.
  • Capitalism and socialism: Modern capitalism is a destructive, undemocratic and exploitative system which primarily favors the proprietor minority. I hope humanity can overcome it eventually, if possible. I'm not fully convinced on socialism's feasibility, but I still think the various proposals presented by socialist theorists are promising, speculative as they might be.
    • Social democracy: If I wasn't a socialist, I'd be a social democrat. Ultimately, I don't think it solves some key issues with capitalism, despite being by far its most ideal form.
    • Libertarianism: Right-libertarianism is a misnomer. "Minimal government intervention" is not "liberty" when this intervention serves to create better opportunities for the people. Libertarian socialism is neat, though.
    • Communism: I sympathize with communism (defined here as a classless society based on the principle "from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs"), but I'm not entirely convinced it could ever be reached.
    • Stalinism: Not real socialism. The entire idea of socialism bases itself around the emancipation of the working-class and freedom from a special class of unaccountable property-owners. We don't call North Korea a democracy just because it calls itself democratic. I don't see why we should call the Stalinist states socialist either. I sometimes refer to it as socialist for the sake of simplicity, though.

On hold

  • Expand socialism:
    • Add primitive socialism.
    • Redo "Christian socialism" and add other forms of religious socialism.
    • Research "Socialism and patriotism" more.
    • Maybe recreate the section about "Socialism and revolution".
    • Create "Socialism and social justice".
    • Add a few more organizations and figures.
  • Expand political spectrum.
  • Detail more of the bullshit in the Party for Socialism and Liberation article.
  • Expand command economy:
    • Maybe change the title to "planned economy"?
    • Actually detail its drawbacks and inefficiencies properly.
    • Add some of the theoretical work done by modern proponents of it (computerized planning, parecon, etc).
  • Expand/reform anarchism:
    • Add a proper "criticism and responses" section (and transfer some of the criticism there).
    • Correct some inaccuracies about the anarchist movement and its schools of thought.
  • Create Olavo de Carvalho.
