https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_spectrum

What's the ""best"" one? How can a ""best"" political spectrum even be defined? Should there be three axes, or even four, rather than just two?

Fundementaly flawed because it only measures differences between simularities and not simularities or differences between individuals.
No one can be accurately reduced to catagorical simularities.
Funny human maladaptation is to reduce parts of a system that are interconnected by causal interaction and the environment they function in, down to constituent members like groups that are defined and connected by catagorical simularities.
May have helped us make sense of the world as wild animals but in today's self-imposed evolutionary novel habitat, this fundamentally inaccurate view of the world around us directly threatens our survival as a species, by causing us to exploit the world unsustainably. The systems that allowed us to get here were lost in the process.
Essentially, the reductionist worldview has turned itself into a evolutionary anachronism. An adaptation that caused itself to turn into a maladaptaion by destroying the environment it adapted to.
We're all devo.

The hypercube that Nationstates uses is pretty good.
>>
I'd say like 5 or so axes are necessary: with rough labels, a liberal/social one (to what extent should the government be active in the economy), an interventionist/isolationist one (to what extent should the government involve itself in foreign affairs), a totalitarian/libertarian one (to what extent citizens should be able to challenge the government), an autocracy/anarchy one (to what extent the government should be able to control citizens in matters not directly related to the existence of the government itself), and a nationalist/globalist one (to what extent government should focus on its citizens to the exclusion of foreigners).

I'd score myself as social/isolationist/centrist (speech regulation is no good, but bring on the surveillance)/anarchist (though having values is great, they shouldn't be enforced by the state)/nationalist on this scale, but the traditional 2-axis approach would have the four non-economic axes interfere with each other and say that I'm something vaguely centrist, which doesn't really tell the whole story.

(The difference between the third and fourth planks is that the third talks about security-related things like surveilance, speech, gun rights, and treatment of whistleblowers, while the fourth talks about ultimately arbitrary factors like alcohol/drugs, abortions, gay marriage, and so on.)

Right wing nationalism in Ireland has been basically non existant since the 1960s.

Any remaining "nationalists" are radical socialists, with the far-left monopolising any republican events.

So /his/, are there any other examples in the 20th century where the left are the principal nationalists of a country?

What are Left wing nationalists like in Ireland? I'm from Scotland and most SNP supporters are unbearable. The majority of their arguments are just anti-tory and they seem to think that growing up in a scheme and talking like you've got a mouth full of marbles makes you more suited to politics than somebody essentially raised from birth for the role.

Not to denigrate the working class but I'm of the opinion that there needs to be a certain degree of emotional distance between the ruling class and the working class so that tough decisions can be made effectively..
>>
>>2192550

Probably similar to Scottish nationalists in their poxy economic views.

However, some are quite fond of dressing up in paramilitary garb and holding stupid parades. They see themselves as the successors to the IRA yet most are either scumbag criminals or stupid unemployable wanders.

Politically, Sinn Fein is probably the most mainstream of the left wing parties, similar to the SNP. Then you have the AAA-PBP, a populist party that attract the dregs of society. Both have made major gains in the last few years.

This is actually a really good idea for a thread OP. Good job.

Goídel Glas (Latinised as Gaithelus) is the creator of the Goidelic languages and the eponymous ancestor of the Gaels.

Tubal-Cain is a person mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, in Genesis 4:22. He was a descendant of Cain, the son of Lamech (not the other Lamech, father of Noah) and Zillah. He was the brother of Naamah and half-brother of Jabal and Jubal.

How were muslims seen throughout history ?

Were they seen as barbaric and anti-intellectuals like they are seen today ?

I know Churchill said something about how single muslims are like christians but collective-wise they are like a dog with cholera and the most retrograding force in the world.

The comparison with Qing/Japan makes no sense. Neither of those two entities are anti-science/anti-physics/anti-biology. Nor are they hostile to non-jap/chinese invented stuff. Infact both Qing and Japan bought military arms like guns and ships from Europeans. They regularly sought out the knowledge in engineering and science from the west, the Europeans however feared giving them knowledge and power. So they imported opium to destroy the internal governance and the local people's morals.
