Do you guys follow any utopian ideas? I'm not using the word in a negative sense. I just mean ideas that are not yet mainstream. A couple of users told me they are centrists. I was surprised by that because young people tend to be drawn to idealistic movements. They're world savers bent on slaying evildoers and putting monsters to bed. They incline toward heroic gestures in their political thinking. More revolutionists than gradualists. They see things in stark terms without much ambiguity. Not saying it's good or bad. Just an observation.

It's hard to get people fired up for moderation anyhow. When I was growing up in the height of the Cold War the big thing was Marxism-Leninism. You had to pick a side. It didn't matter if you'd never read Jalle Marx or Adam Smith. Few did. But you still knew how to use words like dialectical materislism and the invisible hand of the market.

I wanna see where young Somalis's headspace is these days. It'd be interesting how much of the world's philosophies has seeped into qaxooti skills. Tell us about your unconventional beliefs and how you came by them. I've listed the most common ideologies up. Perhaps there are others I've missed.
 
I tried out veganism once. was way too expensive.
I get dudes converting to socialism because it basically offers people free stuff. But what's in it for a qaxooti in veganism? That's some white boy shit if I ever saw one. Something you'd expect from an effeminate yuppie with two dogs and a gerbil out in the 'burbs. It's dreadful to think there are faraxs like this. Whatever happened to the geeljire ethos?
 
I am Alt-Somali.

The Alternative Somali loves Western liberal values, democracy, LGB rights, capitalism, limited government and being under American tutelage.
 
Not even Carlsburg? Amazing.

Also you can't be a genuine revolutionary if you don't love Mother Russia. A lot of Somalis during the Kacaan made pilgrimage to Red Square. Hell, some of us still make it.

State-Communism is just a less competent form of Capitalism. And I only have one mother, and she's Somali.
 
Veganism shouldn't be promoted. I would go as far as maybe jailing them for spreading their lifestyle. Humans are not herbivores.
 
Gradually, and I did a lot of reading. Watching the news and reading the newspapers are enough to make anyone despise the current system of inequality and wage-slavery.
Are you or have you ever been involved with any leftwing groups or parties? I had a Somali neighbour who was recruited by the Greens. Pretty far out guy. Nigga started growing cabbage in his own garden and raising chickens in his backyard.

So I assume you're a pretty secular guy then. How do you think such a critical spirit to life can be spread to the Somali masses?
