When you say pan-political do you mean this:
a specific term, used mainly in social sciences as a designation for those forms of nationalism that aim to transcend (overcome, expand) traditional boundaries.
I never heard of the term before as why Im asking.
Also, in my own view. I don't consider myself political, I watch what people do, versus what they say they're going to do. And for me, any political figure can say one thing when the really want to do another.
I agree that government needs to be reformed, but somhow, Im thinking the reform issue is just being used as a vehicle to push a Accelerationism agenda.
- mindslight 2y agoI have no idea of that specific use of the term and what connotations it has, but maybe it fits? I was using the general prefix to mean across what are usually considered political lines. For example you and I can disagree (and we likely do!!!) on the specific approaches and directions for reforming the government, and we call that politics. But for example, if one of us thinks things would be better if the US was militarily conquered by China, that isn't really the domain of "politics" any longer.
