* right vs. left
vs. straight (in overall philosophy). Both rightism and
leftism are deviant beliefs which have lost their way toward liberalism, and are no
longer on the direct, straight path to truth, goodness, greatness,
and happiness.
* religious reactionism
vs. collectivist regressivism vs. individualist liberalism
(in philosophy, culture, lifestyle, approach, and attitude).
Both rightism and leftism hate and reject humanity as people currently
are, attack them viciously, and see man as fundamentally evil and deserving of destruction.
* surrealism vs.
subrealism vs. realism (in metaphysics). Both
rightism and leftism see the world as unreal, unknowable, incomprehensible, shadowy,
and a type of dream and delusion.
* supernaturalism vs.
subnaturalism vs. naturalism (in metaphysics).
Both rightism and leftism believe ideas about Nature exist, but
Nature itself does not.
* faith and dogma vs.
subjectivism and relativism vs. reason and science (in
epistemology). Both rightism and leftism are irrational and
nonsensical, literally and figuratively, in the formation of their
ideas and beliefs.
* ambiguous nebulous
uncertainty vs. ambiguous nebulous uncertainty vs.
definite absolute certainty (in epistemology). Both
rightism and leftism know that they know nothing and that they have
no means of acquiring knowledge. They argue that the straightists,
who actually claim to know something, are expressing arbitrary, close-minded dogmatism and empty, blind faith.
* self-sacrifice and
servitude to god vs. self-sacrifice
and servitude to the masses vs. self-preservation and
dedication to achievement, greatness, pleasure, and
happiness (in ethics). Both rightism and leftism secretly
reject and hate man, and seek to make him suffer and die.
*
unselfishness
and charity
vs. unselfishness
and charity
vs. selfishness
and greed
(in ethics). Both rightism and leftism oppose caring for the Sacred
Self and placing Him first; both regard as evil the desire and
pursuit of personal values.
*
Welfare
statism with lots of fascism forcing you to be “good” and serve
mostly god, but also somewhat your family and friends
vs. welfare
statism with lots of socialism forcing you to be “good” and serve
mostly the masses, but also somewhat your coworkers and neighbors
vs. personal
liberty, social libertarianism, and economic capitalism allowing
you to be fully free, serve yourself, follow your dreams, and become
as good and great as you can be (in
politics).
Both rightism and leftism favor a “benevolent dictatorship” which
strips away all your rights, stomps on your face, makes you a slave,
and kills you dead.
*
pseudo-heroic,
falsely-dynamic art portraying some “great” man serving and
self-sacrificing himself to his religion
vs. pseudo-heroic,
falsely-dynamic art portraying some “great” man serving and
self-sacrificing himself to his collective
vs. genuinely-heroic and magnificently-dynamic art portraying some truly great man
living for his own sake, fulfilling his destiny, and energetically
triumphing over his evil religious and collectivist enemies, as well
as over his relatively good rivals, and also the weak and inferior
versions of himself
(in
esthetics).
Both rightism and leftism almost completely fail to educate,
enlighten, inspire, and uplift their poor, pitiful, miserable
followers with their dumb, low, cynical, pessimistic, mediocre,
petty, sad, corrupt, loser, defeatist art.
*
humble
resignation and quiet acceptance of defeat in the service of god
vs. humble
resignation and quiet acceptance of defeat in the service of the
masses
vs. defiant,
resilient, dynamic, heroic victory and triumph, despite all odds, and
against all enemies and obstacles
(in
spirituality).
Both rightism and leftism ultimately kill off all your hopes and
dreams as you live out your ridiculous, wretched, pathetic life, and you
end up squashed like a bug.
