Since I’ve been having a blast on following the YouTube channel/podcast
What is politics??
I managed to stumble across his WordPress site, for those of you who prefer to read.
This discourse is the most concise and useful set of concepts for making heads and tails of politics.

Why Elites Ruined the Meaning of the Left Right Political Spectrum (and we need it back!)
Market Exit, like many others before him, tells us that the left-right political spectrum is obsolete and does more harm than good. That’s because he doesn’t know what they mean. This video explain…what even is politics though, like?
Site would not download. I think my virus program blocked it.
I like the differentiate between "politics" and "governance."
One term is related to solving the world's problems. The other term is about who gets to sit in the high chairs.
Yeah, I don’t know how to solve that problem because WordPress is a bit of a problem for some people just ethically.
You could look up “what is politics?” as a podcast listening to 50 minute discourses are something that you’re cool with.
I’ve been going through his YouTube channel, which is another way to do it
Well, specifically, the way the host is first name is Daniel. That’s as much as he gives away of his name defines politics being and specifically government.
Politics is decision-making in groups
Government are social organizations that make and enforce rules.
The first thing to be said about politics is an old friend of mine. Tarley remarked many decades ago is politics rises when there are three or more people because because then you have to deal with people’s perceptions and their decisions to ally or contest.
But his definition of government also includes corporations. They are organizations that make and enforce rules governing people’s lives in that organization.
In some ways, this project is meant to open up how people think about the world they live in, particularly about how their lives are structured socially.
But it’s his definition of left and right, which goes straight back to the original context the terms were coined in, and how he simplifies left and right down to equality versus hierarchy.
Left and right are defined in terms of those fighting for equality of decision making or those fighting for hierarchy.
He is defining left and right as a specific analytical scalpel rather than being the product of his historical artifact since the French revolution.
He goes into that process as well, which is also enlightening
Dr. Douglas Giles proffers the definition between "left" and "right" as being inclusive or exclusive in terms of public decision making sphere:
tiereddemocraticgovernance.org…
Interesting insights, but Dr. Giles does not like my alternative democracy. He seems to annoyed with me.
I'm taking a mini-vacation. Back online by Friday.
