But since they have brought this to NSGeneral they clearly want some discussion on it as well as criticism, hence why the rest of us are here.

Of course every Ideology has its flaws, and at the end of the day nothing is perfect. Maybe I'm wrong or maybe I'm right. Until we test this out and my idea's are spread to a larger platform it will only be some radical idea restricted to one crazy person some may say....

Why are you even discussing regions lol, this is a discussion in NSGeneral.


Here everyone we have a forum-based example of the phrase "talking to a brick wall." Marvel at how every word bounces off the wall's sturdy construction.

Lets picture this you have a salad right? It has lettuce, eggs, croutons, maybe all the food groups right?

In the same way Mutatio Constantism (or as others put it Constantist Pragmatism) is a salad of ideologies and Nazism is the ghost pepper.

This isn't as cogent and relevant an example as you seem to think that it is.

...so now you want to include Nazism in this, or...?

why would EVERY other ideology be totally fine but Nazism the one that can't be included lmao


Also Mutatio Constantism is based on changing from different sides of the political spectrum and Nazism isn't even the most extreme. In fact Fascism is and not all Fascists are racist.

I recommend you branch out from The Political Compass Dot Org for your theory

Do like pretty much every new religion or ideology has done before; take inspiration from bits of other ones and build your own from there. I mean, that's the point of your whole idea, right?

"It" isn't anything. There's nothing to improve. You have presented a non-idea. "uwu guys let's just do the good parts of everything and not the bad parts and change things that need to be changed and all get along :3" is not a new contribution to political thought lmfao

Yes but on a more extreme level essentially. Now I'm not going to take the whole ideology and stuff it in there, instead i want the government to take aspects of each one. So if you were to take out racist aspects of Nazism, its still so radically different from Fascism and still would be Nazism.

There is actually nothing to improve upon, because there is not enough substance here to actually work with. Thus far there have just been some very vague notions that have been contradictory and opaque.

Mutatio Constantism is a paradox within itself! :rofl: I mean a ideology that hates ideology so much it takes from all ideology?!! That's the point, its the closest humanity can get to having a truly centrist non ideological government.

There can be no ideal form of government because the humans who create government are not ideal. Often the best thing that can be done is synthesis for the best results. Look at the places with the highest standard of living, the greatest degree of freedom, the most crime free existence and synthesize and organize the different elements to get the best results.

I didn't say "this is not a good idea and makes no sense," I said it is a non-idea. There's nothing to work with. It's meaningless nonsense, the absence of a political philosophy rather than the presence of one. You just have a vague and inchoate desire for a "good" government. Go read for like five or ten years and come back when you have any opinion on what that actually means.

No it can't, not if what the OP wants to be the case is actually the case.
