Authority means different things, depending on the context. Frankly the original political compass made absolutely no sense in how it defined things, hence having an entire quadrant for ancap make-believe.

In this, positive Y axis corresponds with using authority in favor of bourgeois interests, negative Y axis corresponds with using authority in opposition to bourgeois interests.

the original compass meme is ridiculous, I chose to highlight who is pro dictatorship of capital and not doing anything to fundamentally change it, ie the top right quadrant.

say what you like about the DPRK, but they are outside of that region on those terms

It's a bit ironic that I can't even read the post asking for alt-text - instance is blocked on my end

I don't know where I'd begin trying to transcribe this to text, but they seem to take 'political science' very seriously so they'd probably hate it if I did.

it's not like the original version makes any more sense tbh.

if I was to redo it I would probably make the negative Y axis reflect degree of authority used against bourgeois elements, because the positive Y is reflecting authority used by the bourgeois

positive Y axis is dictatorship of capital, negative Y axis is the gradient of proletarian dictatorship

if anything I put them too high on that

Left those blank on purpose; IMO most people ideologically committed to being in those quadrants actually belong in the top right somewhere

If you want to get banned just start insulting people like the op.

additionally feel free to let your fashy friends know that I'm on payroll for both Putin AND Xi for my sfw online posting activities. I also collect checks from George Soros for in-person work that upsets conservatives.

it's important to have multiple income streams 💅

could you explain how that's not covered by the categories I listed

it's a Marxist/anarchist space, and tankie is not a meaningful term, it's an epithet for punching left. if you're expressing contrition maybe stop acting like every other social democrat shitter running around here.

Wasn't me, but you can post in !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com if you want discussion of a moderation action you received.

I would have probably given you a temp ban, but considering you just got banned from a hexbear account for the same sort of activity and are now complaining about 'tankies' in this very thread, that would probably have been too kind.

secondly, i sincerely promise to act in good faith and learn a bit more when it comes to socialism/communism. i sincerely hope you forgive me.

do you think hexbear is run by tankies who DIDN’T realize that you DON’T have to support stalin to support marxism-leninism?

hmmmm sounds like good faith to me

so many threads come with a call to action too, makes it impossible to take these losers seriously when they complain about brigading
