Political spectrum

Individual

Throughout history, improving the lives of the lowest class has always been achieved through increased social productivity from technological advancement, not through capital redistribution. What improves the lives of the lowest class in the long term is not the redistribution of capital, but increased social productivity through technological and national development. The wealth gap will widen, but only upward, not downward.

From a psychological statistics perspective, it is said that progressives tend to have relatively weaker resilience (

Resilience) compared to conservatives. Interpreting this, conservatives tend to place relatively more responsibility on individuals for their actions for the sake of society, while the left tends to spend more resources on recovery, empathizing with those who might not besim able to recover from their mistakes. Also, rather than the term progressive referring to the left, it is more appropriate to understand that the left seeks cultural progress, while the right seeks technological progress.

Ideology

Supporting one side without judging right or wrong, mannerism is a sin. If you live in the same house, the method may be different, but you will have the same goal. It has been proven that extremism is not an ideal society, and it is important to find an optimized position. Of course, this will be in the form of conducting appropriate administrative procedures through discussions for each issue, and it is a dangerous idea to claim the ideal point of the trade-off between freedom and equality as a specific ideology. Through continuous political system testing, we need to find the maximum value through

Gradient Descent. Of course, whether to view the maximum judgment standard as the freedom of reason or equality is a difficult question to answer. In addition, not only left and right, but also by adding a closed axis, dividing it into four quadrants helps to understand the spectrum.

Socialism is a broad term encompassing ideologies that advocate for the socialization of means of production through shared ownership. While socialism is the ideology that aims to solve problems of private ownership,

Communism is the means to realize this socialism. More narrowly, it emerged as a Marxist-Leninist concept promoted by Stalinists, seeking an ideal human society through increased technological productivity.

However, its limitations are clear both ideologically and practically. First, there was a fundamental lack of understanding of human nature in assuming that equality alone would lead to an ideal society. In reality, socialist systems attempting to realize these ideals, led by the Soviet Union, all collapsed catastrophically. Humans are inherently selfish creatures with desires to excel over others, making the foundational assumptions of socialism fundamentally flawed.

The concept originated from

Jean Jacques Rousseau’s misguided Social Contract Theory, which wrongly blamed society for human evil despite humans being evolutionarily social beings. This ultimately became a demonic concept that claimed countless lives. Furthermore, the Northern European countries that people often cite as examples of socialism are actually capitalist systems with enhanced wealth distribution, not socialist at all. Individual equality inevitably infringes upon individual freedoms, and these concepts cannot coexist completely.

Humans are inherently driven by desire, selfishness, and the ambition to excel over others - this must be understood when designing social structures. This very nature has been a driving force behind human progress.

Capitalism, through its various iterations from Nordic models to American approaches, has consistently created stable societies and remains a promising system for the future.

Actually, There is no center. We can’t measure the distance in the political spectrum
