“Socialism is the goal, communism is the way to reach it” is actually what a lot of MLs seem to secretly believe in the sense that they want to use the appeal of communism to motivate people to create socialism. I have seen very little interest from them in actually building communism.

The defining moment of the 2000s was that guy throwing a shoe at Bush’s head.

I regret to inform you that there are people walking around today, espousing the benefits of fascism, who have never lived under fascism and who have no plans to be a fascist leader.

It’s what true believers believe.

You’re misreading the axes.

There are different kinds of ancaps. Objectivists are also in that category.

Again, not claiming fascists are altruistic. Their ideology assumes people in general are not self-interested.

Sure but they also believe this is in line with human nature. And they trust their leadership to not be self-interested.

Not altruistic in terms of trying to benefit everyone; altruistic in terms of expecting people to unselfishly serve the nation. This is the ideology, not the reality obviously.

They expect individuals to sacrifice their self-interest for the nation, and expect leaders to voluntarily do what is in the interest of the nation.

I totally agree, but the gardens depicted strike me more as ornamental.

No way, it keeps itself on the air with 0 energy expenditure, then moves with minimal resistance. Much more efficient than a land vehicle.

I don’t know the jargon version is funnier to me.

What if they are silent, lifted with vacuum levitation?

Acknowledging that a revolution can improve society even if it isn’t flawless is one thing; actively promoting those “flaws” is another. I do believe that the humanity would ideally be acknowledged in the oppressors. Moreover, the benefits of free speech are greater to society than the individual.
