Societalism

A structural configuration of embedded liberalism, neither Capitalism nor Socialism, that hard-codes human rights into the market’s operating system to ensure stability.
The Stabilisation Mechanism: Societalism holds that unrestrained markets are inherently unstable. By hard-coding human rights—healthcare, living wages, education—as fixed market constraints, the state creates an economic floor. This prevents depressions by ensuring wealth remains circulated rather than hoarded.
Rights as Economic Guardrails: The state acts as economic balancer, enforcing rights-based boundaries that prevent corporations from cannibalising their consumer base. It treats human rights as a "biological necessity" for a functioning market rather than optional charity.
The Golden Age Correction: The 1945–1975 era, mislabeled as "Golden Age Capitalism," was actually the Golden Age of Societalism. It used the Embedded Liberalism consensus to reconcile market efficiency with social stability.
The Neoliberal Hijacking: In the 1970s, this was hijacked. Neoliberals stripped away Enlightenment requirements of liberty (for all), equality, and solidarity.

"The 1970s marked the end of the Golden Age when the center was hijacked, replacing Societalism and Embedded Liberalism with Neoliberalism. This abandoned the Enlightenment mandate of liberty for all, treating the state as a servant to capital.

Societalism

A structural economic configuration, neither Capitalism nor Socialism, that hard-codes human rights into the market’s operating system to ensure stability.
The Stabilisation Mechanism: Societalism operates on the principle that an unrestrained market is inherently unstable. By hard-coding human rights—such as healthcare, living wages, and education—as fixed market constraints, the state creates an economic floor. This prevents the economy from spiralling into a Great Depression by ensuring wealth remains circulated rather than hoarded.
Rights as Economic Guardrails: The state serves as the economic balancer, enforcing rights-based boundaries that prevent corporations from cannibalising their own consumer base. It treats human rights as a "biological necessity" for a functioning market rather than an optional charity.
The Golden Age Correction: The period from 1945 to 1975 was not the "Golden Age of Capitalism," but the Golden Age of Societalism. It succeeded by using these structural guardrails to create the most stable growth in Western history.
The Neoliberal Hijacking: In the 1970s, this was hijacked by Neoliberalism. While using the "liberal" name, it stripped away the Enlightenment requirements of liberty (for all, not the few), equality, and solidarity. Neoliberalism is a departure from true liberalism, subordinating human rights and democratic institutions to the market fundamentalism of global capital.

"The 1970s marked the end of the Golden Age when the center was hijacked. Neoliberalism abandoned the Enlightenment mandate of liberty for all, replacing the balanced "Societalism" configuration with a system that treats the state as a servant to capital rather than the protector of the social fabric."

National Socialism 

National Socialism, National-Socialism or German: Nationalsozialismus is a philosophy or world view. National Socialism is based on nature. The belief that Man is a part of the natural world and that he is in no way separate from it. The belief that society should be structured in accordance with the laws of Nature.

Racial idealism is based on the love of your own people. Placing the interests of the racial community to which you belong ahead of your own personal desires.

National Socialism believes that all men are NOT created equal. Just as every individual has his own personal strengths and weaknesses, so each race certain qualities that make it different from other races.

National Socialism also believes in the improvement of your people. National Socialism's goal is that each new generation of children will be better off than the one before it.

National Socialism believes in putting the people before yourself. But there is a considerable difference in the socialism of Hitler and that of Marxist doctrine. Hitler saw nationalism as a patriotic motive to place the good of one's country before personal ambition.

Nat-Soc Germany adopted the Swastika (German: Hakenkreuz), one of the most ancient symbols in the world. The Swastika represents the sun, the giver of all life. Even the Jews had their own Swastika. Today the Swastika is known as a symbol of hate, which is a lie.

Person 1: "I don't like National Socialism, I think it's too authoritarian."

Person 2: "I disagree, I believe a strong state is necessary and National Socialism is a good idea."

Libertarian Socialism

Not an oxymoron. In fact, the term "libertarian" was first used by a French anarcho-communist back in 1857 to describe himself (an anarchist). The modern term libertarianism (economic freedoms) was originally called liberalism. The term "libertarian" describes liberty (thus, the term is also used to describe metaphysical liberty within philosophy and metaphysics), and the term socialism describes a society in which wealth is fairly distributed. Thus, it is neither a literal nor a practical contradiction.

A libertarian socialist would argue that a society based on such huge disparities of wealth is unfree. If you wish to enter into employment, you choose first and take orders later (as with liberal democracy). Libertarian socialists believe in voluntary association and economic democracy. This will allow the individual to reach his/her full potential.

The most famous example of successful libertarian socialism is the anarcho-syndicalist experiment in Spain during to Spanish Civil War, which was eventually destroyed by Communists and Fascists (see Orwell' "Homage to Catalonia" for excellent first hand reportage of this). At its peak, the anarchist union (CNT) had one million members.

Although sharing much of (if not all of) the Marxist analysis of capitalism, lib socialists vehemently oppose state socialism, especially the authoritarian socialism of Lenin, Trotsky, Mao and, more recently, the socialism of Hugo Chavez. The modern dispute between the two schools of socialism began in the First International, in which Karl Marx and Mikhail Bakunin bitterly argued over the road socialists should take. This dispute has continued ever since, with many Marxist regimes imprisoning, murdering (Russia), and exiling (Cuba) anarchists.

Modern advocates of libertarian socialism include linguist Noam Chomsky, historian and playwright Howard Zinn, and the Industrial Workers of the World ("One Big Union"), and the International Workers Association (of which the Spanish CNT is its largest affiliate).

market socialism 

A system where workers collectively own the means of production, and compete in a market free of capitalists. The Bourgeoise and Proletariat merge into one class.

Market Socialism is an economic system that takes aspects of Socialism and Capitalism, and puts them together in a balanced way.

Robot Socialism

the political ideology that unlike socialism have robots provide everything thus equally dividing the populous into engineers, programmers and scientists. as opposed to worthless jobs that have no benefit to the continuation of mankind. everyone is equal. everyone has a few years of community service they must contribute (5-10) but get to live out the rest of their lives enjoying the labor of the robots

robot socialism = socialism - labor

communism and socialism 

Varying degrees of the same system that rely on the labor theory of market. That theory states that labor is worth something, not tied to the good or service that it produces. Because of that idea, we should pay people more money than it takes to produce an item because they want more money. This fails economically because if everyone wants more money for their work, all items inflate in cost, so you can't afford what you couldn't afford before, except now it's much more expensive than it was, because you have more money but still not enough to buy it. Basically, socialism and communism are a party trick to get the poor to feel better about the fact that life is competitive and they are losing the game. This is also popular with the rich because it makes them seem kind to the poor. Nobody actually wants to implement socialism or communism, they just want to redistribute goods and services and money from those that have it to those that don't and are willing to lose out in the long term for a short term gain.

I used to hate Amazon.com because of communism and socialism, but now I realize that I didn't want to pay more for goods or shipping so I am comfortable with them fucking their employees, because they are doing it for me.
