   Just something to think about, the political compass is red for auth-left, blue for auth-right, green for lib-left, and yellow (sometimes pink for whatever reason) for lib-right.
   
   Commies main color is red, religious boomers main color is blue, anarchist main color is black (technically not really a color, but whatever nobody cares), and libertarian main color is black/yellow.
   
   Then why is the fascist main color black/red then?
   Wouldn't they use black/green instead if they'd stick to the poli-compass color scheme?

     @ryo Ideologues ruining everything including colors. At least purple, the best color, hasn't been touched. Yet.

     @TerminalAutism Purple would be the commies and religious boomers going in bed and making children with each other.

     @TerminalAutism @ryo *clears throat* Have you heard about anarcho-feminism, yet? I do agree that purple is the best color. Still trying to make a good color scheme with it, though.

     @yasu @TerminalAutism The only thing I like about anarcho-feminazi's is that they are capable of making good looking web designs in plain HTML and CSS without any of the bloat.
     Beyond that, they're far worse than the ancoms when it comes to "freedom" (basically, no freedom at all).

     @yasu @ryo No, fortunately. Unfortunately, on the other hand, even just the really common ones are already a huge pain in the ass. Ideologies are the cancer that is killing this world. Ideologies and mind control are basically the same thing.
     
     And I'm very lazy when it comes to colors. I use default themes on most things because changing them is such a pain. The only exception is the terminal emulator, and dmenu, I guess. I should change colors, but that would require finding themes for GTK and Qt and that's just a pain in the ass, having to go through thousands of themes that all look the same to find something passable, and then having to figure out how to change the colors, and then deciding each color. And I say that purple is the best color, but you can't make everything the same color. Also, I do like pretty much every color, I just tend to like everything between red and blue, particularly purple and pink.
     
     Anyway, I had a purple-ish color scheme at some point, but I lost it. I tend to prefer more grayish colors for themes, not too bright but also not too dark. I still have an example here, my xfe theme (I don't use that file manager because it doesn't have a thumbnail cache). It's not purple, but it's an example of the brightness thing. My terminal and my dmenu just have a dark gray background and very light yellow text, though. Not sure why exactly I went with that, but I did. With red for highlighting, on dmenu.
     
     Basically, I customized dmenu and later just copied the colors to xterm and mlterm. And for Emacs, I use one of the default themes, never themed that myself either. I build it to use Athena/Lucid instead of GTK, though. GTK breaks the Emacs daemon, it makes it depend on X to function, so you can't use it in multiple X sessions at once, and if X crashes, it dies. Not a problem with Athena. Otherwise it works the same way, even the themes work and look the same.

     @ryo What would that look like? Abolishing private property because "God owns everything"?

     @ryo @yasu What about the anarcho-fascists? What are they like? I don't know if they exist, but if they don't, well, now they do, I just invented them. Oh, actually, those are just libertarians. Never mind. Or anarcho-libertarians.
     
     Fuck all ideologies, by the way. Always worth repeating. Ideologies are mind control, there is no difference. It's no coincidence that the people in power don't give a shit about them and only use them to manipulate the masses into putting them in positions of power. They know what they're doing.

     @TerminalAutism @yasu Anarcho-fascists is basically Antifa and Burn Loot Murder.
     Guess the only "ideology" that isn't an ideology is plain anarchy.
     All it means is "lack of government/ruler", and nothing else.
     Don't do harm, respect your neighbors, and govern yourself, just like that.
     Anything other than that are extra's people add to it, mostly for psyop reasons.
