>>110078627It's more like all ideologies in practice instead of just talk just turn into "hmm wait no what's the best thing for me personally only at this specific moment?"
A person with billions starts wanting either as close to Ancap as possible or better yet to just buy the government. Elected leaders and Communist leaders just want the rich guy's money or to be rich themselves. If someone doesn't have capital at that moment capitalism is bad, then of that changes next year capitalism is perfect. Fascism is great if you're the fascist leader than if someone starts stomping on your head instead suddenly fascism is bad.
Once you realize this, most "ideological debate" makes sense. People think "what's best for me right now?" well that's the best. Usually they're wrong or they don't think ahead. If their circumstances change or the system they thought would help them hurts them, they'll either flip on a dime or be so brainwashed or embarrassed about being wrong they'll double down and become fanatical no matter what. Rarely do people sit back and do evidence based analysis of what would actually be best for them now, in 5 years, in 10 years, 30 years, etc. and this would require hard work time and testing. Notice that I didn't even get into any ethical situations like supporting a system that's pretty okay for you and murders everyone and everything else because 4chan is full of angry psychopaths who would be happy to die if they could take everyone else out at the same time. What I'm saying is even totally selfish personal interest calculations are usually way off, they're kneejerk emotional reactions based on lazy assumptions spite propaganda you name it, this goes for everybody. It's why people all around the world elect a government then hate their government, or have revolutions to become their government then hate their governments.
