Glossary of Right-Wing Dystopias

Honestly, a Liberal dystopia could be Harrison Bergeron: Get on board with whatever is considered progress, or else. Don't stand out, don't be better than anyone, don't achieve more, because it goes against the proper order and it makes other people feel bad when you're better.

Honest-to-goodness Longism would be, not the watered-down fascism ignorant people think of it as.
 
Here was my take. I abandoned this series because it became a revolving door of different dystopias. It is my belief that such a thing is unrealistic, as things need time to breath and have some peace. By a certain point, people have to become self aware that something is wrong, and suspect God is actively screwing with them. And they would be right. It started off with preptually reelected President Stalin, followed by an interlude of peace under Harold Stassen, followed by perpetually reelected insane President Nixon, followed by President Jerry Brown, followed by "enough of this sh*t" President Frank Zappa. I have linked the Brown years.

That is true. A liberal dystopia is quite difficult. A communist or radical socialist one, on the other hand....
 
Yeah, yeah, but you're still a Bourgeois punk by Zimmerwald standards.

look here buckaroo, Vladmir "illyich" lenin is not my chairman, he is a state capitalist and most likely a reactionary[1], Trotsky and Bakunin not Marx and Lenin alright?

[1] note a reactionary is someone who wants to turn society to a period of time before the current one, due to the nature of pre-historic man being a hunter-gatherer who controlled the means of production if you want to be an idiot who argues semantics and be stupid and all that fun stuff communists are the ultimate reactionaries :)

This isn't the place, and you physically are hurting me with those politics.

If you wanna talk about this more, here's the place for you.

How on earth could you call yourself a Trotskyist whilst upholding someone like Bakunin, dismissing Marx and calling Lenin a 'reactionary'? That's certainly a very confused idea of Trotskyism. I know everyone is trying to prevent the discussion devolving into politics but that just baffles me.

As for the topic itself, I definitely agree that some of these are not 'dystopias'. What is definitely interesting is how focused on US politics they all are. I don't see many examples from elsewhere.
 
as a renowned trotskyist anything to the right of me is a right wing dystopia comrades

to me Turquoise Blue is a centrist

That Wacky Redhead must be a dystopia to you, then. What, with Ronald Reagan and Centrist Democrat John Glenn winning the Presidency. And worst, MASH and The Brady Bunch don't exist.

And OTL must be the biggest dystopia ever, with right-wingers like FDR and LBJ being presidents.

To be fair, MASH is possibly the greatest sitcom ever, so I would class it as such.

At the risk of bringing up politics again, I also consider myself a 'Trotskyist' so to me FDR and LBJ are to the right of me politically. However, I recognise them as part of the left wing of capital and obviously there are noticeable differences to the right wing.
