The "political compass" is a flawed system of categorization. Politics can be simply summed up as "Might is right", the end. Anything that attempts to complicate this sentiment is a cope.

god I hate this board

Let's take a real piece of shit like Stirner, he would reject any placement, yet directly influenced the Socialists in the top left, yet in the modern age would sound more like a bottom right.

go to your shitty alt-right /r/politicalcompassmemes site and ask them

why? so you can post on r/pcm and look all smart? fuck you.

>>15831258
Wikipedia can't give me your take on it anon

There is nothing wrong with r/pcm.

>>15831853
There sure is something wrong with you.

"Philosophers." I swear no one has any fucking clue what "philosophy" even means.

>absolute retardation.
You could make an argument that history is "might makes right." But politics as an extension of ethics does not.

We all (should) know the spectrum is mono-dimensional, pronomian and antinomian, absolutism to anarchy

The poles are perhaps best occupied and represented by Hobbes and Marx respectively

It was something interesting for like a week but then people realized “hey we can post shitty racist takes but under the claim that we’re having open dialogue between people of different backgrounds!”
It’s just another right-wing hate site.

Based.

Ngl, elitism and darwinism looks based.

>>15833883
Yes, basically. Just flip the b's and you get Hoppes /s
But really ancaps are basically just absolutists but with a specific few different principles.

Is Plato auth-right?

>>15834712
>>15834712
difficult to say, personally hes more auth-left

>>15834799
Plato was in favor of state sponsored eugenics, which seems pretty auth-right to me.

>>15834842
Again its hard to say, but on that compass at least, one have Darwinian polices like that and still be in auth left, it depends on the basis of legitimacy for the authority. Take Juche for example, where race mixing is banned

>>15834872
Fair point. Plato was also against perpetual military action and was staunchly against aggressive wars, which is antithetical to a lot of auth-right ideologies.

>>15834942
Yes, but not all auth-right systems of course. Overall I would place most of his tendencies in auth-left (be it close to the border between left and right).

>>15831291
I also thought this when I was fourteen years old.

>>15836208
Shame that you've suffered brain damage since then.

>>15834942
Also wanted to abolish the family, seems like a pretty left-wing position

>>15834089
Don't be stupid buddy
