I'll also add to that, that the notion of an "opposite" to something so complicated as a _world_ is idiotic, because in running away from the bad of that one, you run into bad in the other.
TL;DR: The "opposite" of a bad world isn't necessarily a good world.
- KGIII 9y agoYeah, but sometimes we have to reduce things to a more simple nature as things must be optimized for brevity and attention span. It really is a broad spectrum and it's quite possible to have both authoritarian ideals in one category while having libertarian values in a different category. I do favor the simplicity of the political compass with four points. It has a specific name but I can't think of it at the moment. It is simplistic, and reductionist, but it is handy enough for a forum post and adequate for generalized conversations. But, as you suggest, it's much more complicated than that. We humans really do like putting things into boxes, or so it seems.
