From the guy who brought you 51 ProÂpaÂganÂda TechÂniques Explained in 11 MinÂutes comes this: Every PolitÂiÂcal IdeÂolÂoÂgy Explained in 8 MinÂutes. You get the usuÂal suspects–conservatism, libÂerÂalÂism, socialÂism, comÂmuÂnism and fasÂcism. And then some less freÂquentÂly encounÂtered ideÂoloÂgies: tranÂshuÂmanÂism, synÂdiÂcalÂism, and comÂmuÂniÂtarÂiÂanÂism. By the end, he covÂers 23 difÂferÂent belief sysÂtems that orgaÂnize our politÂiÂcal and ecoÂnomÂic lives. The video is brief, necÂesÂsarÂiÂly superÂfiÂcial. But it’s a place to start. To take a deepÂer dive, you can explore Andrew HeyÂwood’s book, PolitÂiÂcal IdeÂoloÂgies: An IntroÂducÂtion.

InterÂestÂing artiÂcle. But capÂiÂtalÂism is NOT an ideÂalÂoÂgy, which sugÂgest a simÂple and malÂleable belief sysÂtem (with an emphaÂsis on belief, not fact). It is instead an ecoÂnomÂic sysÂtem based on eterÂnal truths like the appliÂcaÂtion of self interÂest in fosÂterÂing mateÂrÂiÂal and social advanceÂment. ReadÂers should go read about Adam Smith’s 18th cenÂtuÂry work called “The Wealth of Nations”.
I don’t know which one is the “wrongest” in this list. I didÂn’t see one which was right. It seems to like mixÂing pure polÂiÂtics with ecoÂnomÂics and sociÂolÂoÂgy to creÂate a mishÂmash of funÂny falseÂhoods.
If you’re seekÂing defÂiÂnÂiÂtions for some of these groups, this is NOT the right vehiÂcle for you if you preÂfer truth.
