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.
My take on a new alignment. Curious if others agree with my placements.
Maybe, what are you referring to?
Well, I was deliberate to not say "if we got rid of the private holders of capital." Capital being successfully democratically controlled is key. I'm definitely with you on there being countless other bad options.
