Why is homeworld authoritarian right? I kind of doubt that their economy is market based. For that matter why is Bismuth authoritarian left?

authoritarian right is conservatism
libertarian left is DUDE WEED LMAO

i think you're right. the gems don't seem to understand money.

>>88809509
Libertarian right is what most people think of when they think of libertarians. The same social stances as the libertarian left (fine with drugs, guns, lgbt, etc) but with economic values that are more like what you see from republicans (privatize as much as possible, low taxes, etc).

I'm not super sure Andy would be bottom right either since he seems socially pretty conservative.

>>88809317
"Left and Right" doesn't necessarily mean "Socialist and Capitalist", Bismuth and the Diamonds are Left and Right in the original sense of "Want to overthrow the existing social order vs Want to preserve the existing social order".

>>88809509
libertarian right would be like Ron Swanson from Parks and Rec.

The left/right axis is all about economics though. The vertical axis is where the social order stuff comes into play.

>>88809678
you're right that left/right aren't always about economics. but the template specifically says, "economic right/left".

>Want to overthrow the existing social order vs Want to preserve
what you're describing is more revolutionary/reactionary than left/right.

>>88809711
You don't need to interpret it that way, "Authoritarian vs Libertarian" could refer to the means that a person is willing to employ to achieve their aims, Bismuth and the Diamonds are both Authoritarians because they are willing to use violence and coercion to get their way.

I almost forgot what a great comic Red Son (Red Sun?) was.

>what you're describing is more revolutionary/reactionary than left/right.

But that's what Left and Right originally meant, the terms came from the seating arrangement in the first Post-Revolutionary French Parliament; the radical Jacobins sat on the left side of the chamber and the Royalists sat on the right side, but the Jacobins weren't Socialists and the Royalists weren't Capitalists either (at least in the modern sense). What divided them was that the Jacobins wanted to completely destroy all trances of the Ancien Regime and create a new, wholly republican France, while the Royalists wanted to restore the monarchy in its entirety.

>>88809789
Okay but that isn't how the political compass frames politics. What's the point of using an outdated definition when everyone else here is using another one?

Oh god, I need to re-watch that episode.

>>88809789
commies should be lumped with monarchists and nazis anyway. They'll all about Dear Leader solving everything for them and giving him complete control

the only difference is that commies accept anyone as plebs, whereas nazis are selective and they want only white plebs
