Transcription:

welfarism the poor can be helped by giving them back a tiny chunk of what was originally stolen from them and keeping them in a state of dependency on the government the bribery of the lower classes

inflationism all problems can be solved by simply printing more currency, despite overwhelming evidence that the arbitrary creation of new currency creates problems in and of itself money literally grows on trees

monetarism government control of the money supply will not result in perverse incentives and unintended consequences the belief held by a bunch of Chicago School economists who think that they are free market proponents but really are quasi Keynesians

syndicalism corporations are evil yet somehow corporate dominated government chartered and cartelised unions are the path towards a free and stateless society a politicised economic system will not result in misallocated resources, shortages, and famine

Hobbesianism a highly pessimistic view of human nature that entails war of all against all justifies absolute control of society by the state, despite the fact that the state is made up of human beings the alleged problems of human nature are no longer applicable when a human holds political power

racism the strange belief that a particular roll of the genetic dice entitles and requires one to completely separate themselves from others with another particular roll of the genetic dice overall genetic differences makes one genetic group superior in every way to another genetic group 3 the collectivism of bubble headed bigots

environmentalism the planet itself has intrinsic value and that human beings are inherently evil parasites on the face of the planet the environment can only be preserved through the actions of a state, despite being composed of inherently evil parasites 3 the modern religion of nature worship

globalism the strange belief that large scale conflict and war would end if only we put all political power in the hands of a singular oligarchical institution with control over everyone in the entire world the strange belief in the inevitability of a benevolent world government

Marxism some crazy rich German guy has predicted an inevitable egalitarian future and has mapped out the path towards the liberation of all poor and working people through the work of a benevolent dictatorship the irrational belief in the superiority of communism over other economic arrangements 3 the distorted ideological lens through which the world is viewed by academia

collectivism the strange belief that groups have a mind of their own yet their component parts do not groups have rights and privileges yet the individuals that make up the group do not

altruism the strange belief that self destructive servitude for the sake of others is the greatest virtue everyone should mutually be slaves to each other

subjectivism all truth claims can be reduced to mere personal opinion or preference, yet somehow this view isn t a mere opinion in and of itself opinions have the same level of validity and empirical status as facts

nihilism there is no such thing as truth, yet somehow it is true that there is no such thing as truth the root of the post modernist cancer in academia 3 the suicide of intellectual thought

primitivism the romanticisation of long gone tribal and hunter gatherer societies, in which life was nasty, brutish, and short, as peaceful and prosperous utopias the strange belief that living in a cave or mud brick hut or as a hermit in the woods is preferable to modern industrial society

statism it is not only moral but necessary for a particular group of individuals to do that which is openly acknowledged as being immoral and not necessary for everyone else to do moral hypocrisy at the institutional level

constitutionalism a piece of paper drafted and signed by a tiny aristocracy of men is a legitimate perpetual contract that makes the government voluntary on the part of those within a society that did not sign the document and limits the powers of governmental agents for all of eternity a piece of paper can prevent the tyranny of the majority

minarchism all goods and services should be provided by the free market yet somehow the principle magically doesn t apply to the defence and arbitration industry there can be a government limited to the protection of rights without violating rights in and of itself

democracy the government is controlled by the people simply because every few years they get to punch a hole in a piece of paper with the names of a few rich and powerful men on it the unwavering belief in the good of the tyranny of the majority

nationalism imaginary lines on a map constitute real and meaningful property boundaries territories have human traits or personalities of their own 3 immigration is the spawn of Satan

objectivism the initiation of force is wrong yet somehow it is permissible to arbitrarily invade Iran and Venezuela because we have oil interests there only romanticism is real art 3 you can eliminate taxation and still have a government

Libertarianism the state is inefficient and immoral yet for some strange reason the state is the only viable means by which liberty can be brought about democracy is tyrannical yet must be used in order to take the advantage

paleoconservatism one is more conservative than those creepy neocons yet somehow support just about as powerful of a government as they do conservatism was hijacked by leftists and communists and that the true conservatives are those who support protectionism and white nationalism

Christianity the path to salvation lies with devotion of one s life to a Jewish zombie hippie who is his own father one of three desert religions that originated with a pagan god of war

Zionism because the Jewish people were nearly liquidated once, the Jews have an inherent right to liquidate others and forcibly remove them from their own territory only the Jewish people can inhabit the Holy Land and that all others are unworthy of co existence

Satanism the belief in the writings of a former carnie con artist who haphazardly threw together the ideas of Ayn Rand and Aleister Crowley incoherent ramblings on the Enochian key and rhetoric to draw in rebellious teenagers

religion the belief in an all knowing and all powerful being that created the universe and itself, yet refuses to supply evidence for such feats, instead demanding worship while at the same time damning all those who refuse to eternal torture fairy tales from centuries or millennia ago passed down through shaky oral tradition and written down by fallible men are actually absolutely true and codes to live one s life by
