I was thinking of starting my own political party just for fun and I can't seem to come up with a name. Thinking about it, I'm not sure what sort of label properly even captures my political beliefs. I'm open to suggestions:
- Dictatorship/Absolute Monarch > Democracy/Republic
- Market Economy > Planned Economy
- Private Property Ownership > Public Property Ownership
- Strict Objective Moral Values Enforced by Government > No Moral Values Enforced by Government
- Racial homogeny > diversity.
- Elitist > Egalitarian
- Patriarchy > Equality
- Military Class Rule > Merchant Class Rule
- Taxes as close to 0% to still maintain society > high taxes
- No welfare state whatsoever > any welfare state
What would you call such politics if you wanted to give it a catchy label?
Yeah, this seems about accurate. Basically, needs to be some new label more-or-less. I'm not even sure what the them is. Fascism was justice which is a good theme. Communism was common people.
I don't want monarchy to be the focus of mine because that's unimportant. As long as the people in power aren't subject to any binding elections, that's good enough. Dictator, monarchy, military supreme leader, whatever. Doesn't matter. And authoritarianism hardly tells anyone what kind of leadership the authority will be.
National Capitalism is pretty close but capitalism carries such a bad connotation among lots of people. Authoritative Moral National Free Enterprise is kind of it but that's not catchy at all lol.
Might just to research ancient symbols and make something up like you say.
this is actually quite hard to come up with
a simple one or two-word label to explain an idea... that doesn't come off as a loaded term or that will trigger a hostile programmed response from most people... bloody hell.
maybe something like a "kingdom" but not quite, i.e. the -dom(domain) suffix sounds like it encompasses a good chunk of what you want to convey: rule, moral values, racial homogeneity, elitist, patriarchical, militaristic, room to allow some form of taxes but no wellfare. just missing something on market economy and private property ownership to tie it together.
