"I hate the political compass I hate the political compass I hate the political compass"
"Drop your weapon and build your entire ideology around a shitty, non sensical set of arbitrary criteria invented by a Libertarian, we have you surrounded!"
also if entire quadrants don't exist because the axes are actually the same, then how can there be variance within the remaining quadrants?

Will ultra left revolution use absolutely no violence? Using violence, regardless of decentralization or non-heirarchical cadres, to compel others is authority.
I know this question seems like a gotchya but outside of online nonsense like the political compass, anarchists have wrestled with this for good reason. Being aware of the downsides of violent force, and to understand that force doesn't necessary imply violence (nor does violence always imply force), are useful conditions to put on our models of strategic change.
I do not mean to insult any real life orgs trying to change the world for the better.
Oh no I know, I take it in good faith, but I hope anyone else reading isn't too dismissive of that line of inquiry.
Add on to that and take time to comprehend it, you can skim and not truly understand a word written.
