This is why I fucking hate the political spectrum.
The left wing is for state managed finances, and putting the collective ahead of the individual. The right is for completely unrestricted economic freedom, and putting the individuals desires far ahead of any collective need. Meanwhile, we also tend to associate social freedom with the left, and conservative tradition with the right. So which of these systems defines anarchists?
It's just a false dichotomy, and we need to stop simplifying everything to a binary. The 4-point grid is "better," but it's honestly just time we stop reducing complicated and nuanced ideologies into "this or that."
You need at least two axes (plural of "axis") to describe political ideologies.
We need a political tesseract with 4 axes
And my axes! (as in 2 "ax", not plural of axis)
I was hoping for a guillotine, but these will do nicely.
