ok hot take. we all hate capitalists. I know. I do too. I really, REALLY hate capitalists.

that being said C!Quackity is the definition of a capitalist. like in a fully "I made the money, I deserve it because I took the risks." "its not my fault that some people dont work as hard as I do." "las nevadas is a company, the only government is the corporation which Quackity owns." way.

he is sat RIGHT at the bottom right corner on the political compass, and he is not budging. obviously, thats not to say hes a homophobe or a racist or generally a bigot, but hes very much a land hoarding, greedy, individualistic, profiteer type guy.

him and wilbur have gotten into several arguments about this, as with pretty much all of the ways Quackity runs his goverment, and shots have been FIRED.

I think the main argument from wilbur would be: "was it your fault that you were homeless after you ran from schlatt? do you really belive that youre the only person who has ever needed to run from financial abuse?" and "if it hadn't been for my policies about taking in all we can feed, then you would have starved to death in the woods. according to your philosophy I should have told you to piss off because you wernt profitable."

and then quackity responding with: "you change your ideology like youre a kid playing dressup, dont act like youre better than me because you woke up and decided that being a marxist suited your situation best, you just want something to argue about." and "you only took me in BECAUSE I was profitable. maybe not through labour but you would have used me as a bargaining chip any day of the week."

anyways, they've both been heads of state and both of them are well versed in political science and economics, which leads to both some very fun conversations and some less fun arguments. (wilbur might enjoy it a little)

ok so yes I agree with that take in the context of the smp, but it's also important to point out that minecraft "capitalism" is what those capitalists who want to convince you it's good claim capitalism to be. Food is abundant, shelter has little requirements to be functional, you can literally just dig a little into a hill and you're set, and then make a farm from things you can find anywhere. Anyone can mine, anyone has access to anywhere that isn't already someone's exact base, food is easily accessible and renewable, etc etc.

What Quackity's doing is he's actually providing a luxury service which isn't at all necessary. And Las Nevadas deserves to earn a profit from people using its facilities, cause they've been carefully and deliberately made to provide entertainment. Quackity doesn't have monopoly on food, shelter, land, resources, etc. Anyone could make their own small version of LN if they had the want and time to. So it isn't fair putting cQuackity in the same box as idfk bezos or musk, cause in cQ's case it's deserved, earned, and not a monopoly that causes everyone but him to suffer. Translating that into real life is just simply much more difficult than taking it at face value

As a sidenote I think that while Quackity is like that on the outside, he still wouldn't ignore someone needing help. Like, he's definitely got that built up resentment of "I had to work for all of this so hard, I've gotten through so many hardships. Why should someone else have it easier??" but then when the push comes to shove he's still end up helping, even if just a little bit.

SHARE YOUR EXTREMIST POLYCULE (THE BEST SHIP) HEADCANONS RIGHT NOW GRRRRRRR 👹👹👹

YES YES IT'S THE BEST ALRIGHT HERE THEY GO

i don't have much to say about their overall dynamic. i'm very canon-compliant, y'know, although i do have some reserve. but i have to say, when i read fics, nothing get me better than some juicy evil blueman (or like, antagonist/anti-hero blueman? i'm not sure of the terminology here) and to have darker, more realist themes around the extremists and their platonic, romantic or intimate bond

headcanons under the cut <3

Thank you for the ask, fictionalgea!

headcanons babyyy:

Commie cooks because noone else knows how to cook a proper meal

Commie brings the stability in the relationship (calm and very loving), Ancap is the breadwinner (and is kinda the smartest), Authright gives them all a framework and makes the relationship go round (somehow) and Ancom brings the joy and fun of it all (with and without drugs)

Authright does the chores ─ being very militarily formated, i guess he'd be house-proud (even if he is pretty hygiene-indulgent with himself and his room). for some time he asked Ancom to do it because "qui's not a 'man' so qui's a woman so qui gotta do the chores" but it didn't work and Ancom is too messy anyways

on the topic of Authright, he do be having emotional damage (daddy issues) and identity crises (being jew and gay). for that, he bottles up a lot but ends up getting a lot of help from Ancom

Ancap does have some trauma too! but he's too good at façade-ing and playing pretend so the others barely notice anything (except Commie a bit but he's waiting for Ancap to come to him on his own terms)

also, Authright prefers 1-on-1 dates/going outs and hates public display of affection even in their house

on the other hand, Ancap and Commie yearn for signs of affection (they got an arrangement to surprise each other so that they don't yearn too much)

Commie got the biggest bed so all the pyjama parties are done there (otherwise they all sleep in their own bed)

each xmas, Commie offers Das Kapital to Ancom as a running gag tradition

Ancom tried to have pets multiple times but qui couldn't keep them because it bothered at least one of the others

also, Ancom still seeks reassurance from the anarchist polycule when things get too bad with the extremists (the anarchists trash on the extremists the whole time)

every so often, Ancap has to go back to Ancapistan for prolonged periods of time (for business reasons or to hang out with the libetarians) and every time, WITHOUT FAIL, when he comes back, a prank waits for him (good and bad tricks) and it's very funny

um. that's a lot. i hope it's enough for you to chew on hehe

honesly if i had any plot idea i'd write fanfics of them

random extremist unity headcanons that i thought of in the shower or just while zoning out in general:

Nazi actually likes cooking and baking, but he thinks thats a woman's job so he doesn't do it often, but when he does its actually really good

Ancap really likes making dad jokes or puns to either annoy people (nazi especially) or just does it for the shits and giggles

Ancap is also the type of person to make puns out of items in the grocery store

Ancom wears a skirt to bed, and y'know what? good for quem

Commie doesn't wear anything to bed, not even boxers, i guess you could say he's a hot man

Ancap and Nazi on the other hand, could wear a full suit to bed no problem, but for different reasons. Ancap could wear suit to bed because hes too lazy to take it off, Nazi on the other hand could do it because the fucking AC in his room is freezing so the layers are helpful in a way to keep him warm

Speaking of rooms, Commie does not have an AC, he only has a fan and thats it (hah onlyfans-)

Nazi is naturally very cold, by that i mean literally, if you touch his hand you're probably gonna get hypothermia or some shit

In contrast to that, Commie is naturally hot, both attractively and,,, temperature-ly i guess

Continuing those two headcanons, if Nazi and Commie touched hands or just touch skins in general, if you squint you can see a small smoke eminating from that spot

Nazi has all kinds of weapons under his bed, including a flamethrower

Ancap can play the violin and piano

Nazi can play bass and guitar, and can sing really well, almost as good as commie

Commie can sing pretty well (as seen in leftist unity of course), but he cant really play any instruments besides a recorder but even then the only thing he can play on it is hot cross buns and the soviet union anthem

Ancom can play the drums and an otamatone (that thing that looks like a music note and makes weird sounds, ancom can play that now i decided), ancom is also not the best singer but que's got the spirit

i have a lot more but ill save it for another time and maybe give them their own posts

@jonpertwee here you go, and also, feel free to do this on your blog so others and I can do it for you! Y'know, if you wanna do that. If not, that's cool, too. No pressure.

I've actually got a very generous set of taste buds! I was picky when I was little, and didn't like berries for being bittersweet instead of sweet, or soda because it was so fizzy, or even mint. But today? I have minor complaints against flan texture but still enjoy it, and I don't like balsamic vinegar with vegetables, but curry, sauerkraut, sushi, Mongolian, you name it? I probably love it.

Oh, oh, oh... There are several things buried deep inside me that anger me but they come from the state/capitalist system. There are a lot of innocent people, many of whom I care about, who are hurt and personally? I feel I owe a life-debt to the LGBT community in particular for folks, especially trans and bi folks, being such good friends to me even in my most trying times. I might not even be alive otherwise, or someone who wants or deserves to be. Yet y'all are especially victimized by this sytem. Pure evil, that. And then there's grief and abuse I've suffered that wouldn't be possible (or, in the case of grief, as likely or bad) in an ancom society. In a similar vein, I've hurt others, and the great share of fault is mine since it was still my choice, but I would have been raised not to be such an ass in an ancom society, making the hurt I caused others less likely of a choice to have been made by me. The hatred I have for this system is perhaps the thing I think about most.

Not sure if the amber light is a joke or serious. If serious, are you saying you think I'm going to die soon, that I'm going to become a brownshirt, or something else entirely? Or perhaps it's the thought of fire burning all the fascists, capitalists, and other criminals against Humankind that permeates my mind so much...
