The politically active generation

aka. P.M.G.; The generation within a particular family that is the most politically active

Brian and Jen’s kids are a lot more involved protests about racial equality, gender equality, LGBTQ equality and recognition, and climate change than their parents, grandparents, or their own children are. They also attend more political rallies, watch debates more often, and tend to vote more than their parents, grandparents, or their own children do. They are the politically active generation in the family.

Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Science

The theory that science is fundamentally shaped by political and economic forces—that what gets studied, how it's studied, who gets to study it, and what counts as knowledge are all influenced by power and money. The theory argues that science is not an ivory tower but a field of struggle, where research agendas reflect funding priorities, where methods reflect available resources, where conclusions reflect institutional interests. This doesn't mean science is false; it means science is human, situated, shaped by the conditions of its production. The Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Science explains why some questions get answered and others ignored, why some researchers thrive and others struggle, why science is never pure.

Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Science Example: "She'd dreamed of a pure science, untouched by politics or money. The Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Science showed her otherwise: every grant was a choice, every publication a negotiation, every finding shaped by who paid for it. Science wasn't corrupt; it was just real—shaped by the same forces that shape everything else. The purity she'd imagined had never existed."

Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Reality

The theory that reality itself—what we take to be real, true, given—is shaped by political and economic forces. The theory argues that reality is not simply discovered but constructed, that what counts as real depends on who has the power to define reality. This isn't idealism; it's realism about power. The Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Reality explains why certain truths are recognized and others suppressed, why some experiences are validated and others dismissed, why reality is never neutral. Those who control resources also control what counts as real—and what counts as real shapes what can be done.

Example: "He used to think reality was just... reality. Then he encountered the Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Reality: who decides what's real? Who benefits from that definition? Who is erased by it? Reality wasn't given; it was made—by power, for power. He started seeing the construction everywhere, and couldn't unsee it."

Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Efficiency

The theory that efficiency is fundamentally shaped by political and economic forces—that what counts as efficient, who gets to define it, and whose interests it serves are determined by power and money. The Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Efficiency argues that efficiency is not a technical concept but a political one, not a neutral measure but an economic weapon. It shows how efficiency definitions serve ruling classes, how they justify exploitation, how they exclude alternatives. The theory is the foundation of critical efficiency studies, of the recognition that efficiency is never just efficiency.

Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Efficiency Example: "He'd thought efficiency was just about doing things better—technical, neutral, good. The Theory of the Political and Economic Nature of Efficiency showed him otherwise: efficiency was a weapon. It was used to justify layoffs, to cut services, to externalize costs. The 'efficient' solution was usually the one that benefited those already in power. He stopped celebrating efficiency and started asking who was paying for it."

The GitHub Political Party

Advocates for a government where policy is managed via a respiratory hosting service that governs voluntarily via subscription plans. The GitHub Political Party would put in place a open-source government that stores revisions of projects for ideologies and policies.

In practice the Github party would advocate for a voluntary society in which groups and individuals maintain and develop their culture or interests whilst maintaining a pluralist attitude valuing philoxenia (a love of strangers). Their philoxenia & their pluralist attitude are valued by each of the societies, despite them being apart of various schools of thought because they all consider the possibility that the other society is more correct. Each of these societies evinces a willingness to update their theories as more evidence becomes available. These voluntary societies treat their ideas like code where there are willing to update to new versions, fork into separate versions experimenting with different ideas, and are willing to boot up older iterations with the knowledge they obtained with newer iterations.
Within these voluntary societies people will be able to vote with their feet or dollar ;in lieu of, diluted votes often associated with regular democracy.

Thanks to the GitHub Political Party all the political ideologies are living in harmony. People now live within the political systems they choose to or the political systems they dream up themselves – what a wonderful world. Where everyone is free to choose what they wish and create political systems untrammeled by basic b democracy.

Politicizing The Tragedy

a Republican LieSpeak term: "The Tragedy" is of course some entirely avoidable horror, generally a large loss of life, and generally this occurred due to some policy that Republicans fully support. "Politicizing" is being used here as a synonym for "Doing something about it (to prevent it)"

Thus "Politicizing The Tragedy" is a form of LieSpeak that enables sociopathic people to actually flip the script and call people out for wanting to do something to stop the horror.

-After each deadly house fire without a fire department, the small town tried to set up a fire department paid for with town taxes, but the anti-tax crowd always screams that setting up a fire department and raising local taxes to pay for it is Politicizing The Tragedy.

-The Nazi screamed at me: "What do you mean that we must do something to stop the needless killing? You want to stop the killings? No, the killings must go on, and you are the monster for trying to stop them because you are Politicizing The Tragedy!"
