Voila!
It all suddenly makes perfect sense.
Imagine a horizontal line, on the far left you have communists and on the far right you have fascists. Now pull the ends down and in to connect them to form a circle. They meet at the same point.
You can also add the concept of time into this visual equation, while the right try to "conserve" some of the old ways, the left try to "progress" into the future, but it's all the same. You can't distinguish "advanced" or "retarded" in terms of timing when it is circular.
The future is the past is the future.

Where can you place yourself and how can you tell if you're ahead or behind?
Be advanced in love and growth and I think this is the best way to ensure you're in a "good" spot.

I also think of it like old games like Pac-Man where you go off one side of the screen and pop out on the other.


I have been trying to live a more simple life, learn more about nature and older techniques, I'm less concerned with much of the "progress" I see in the world. I obviously enjoy some of the tech and appreciate the benefits of living during this time.
Ultimately I AM trying to "conserve" knowledge that we are losing all the time. I'm not afraid of change and can adapt but I do want to bring what works. Am I behind? It might look that way to many in my life.
I mean ancient btw.
If you could rewind time back to when lost "advanced" civilisations were thriving it would look like a future world.

It doesn't matter how you get to where you're going as long as you make it there.

I see everyday how something well known by the ancients up to the pioneers is re-discovered and re-utilized. The future trends are old concepts. A good idea is one that works in the present, past, and future.

I prefer to use a sphere to display the political spectrum, but you have grasped the most important part. The extreme left and right are the same they are just stuck on semantics and are to stupid to see it.

Now then when you have the circle, you have liberty and freedom at the near edge of the circle and at the far edge, where the bar ends meet, you have Progressives, communists, butted up against facists. What they all have in common is state control and domination and lack of personal freedom.

I suppose the 1% don't care what kind of govt exists as long as there is strong state control, and, of course, they control the govt.

I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you.
