Well I personally range from distaste to absolute loathing of socialism in its many forms, although of course some are more tolerable than others. I find Marxism to be a bunch of pseudoscientific drivel (it is, after all, Hegelian), the utopians are… well, utopian which is also meh, and anarchists lack realism. So I have ideological disagreements with Vas.liitto even outside of any specific policy disagreements. For example, I’m not really convinced about their idea of “a world with justice, equality and sustainability for all, not for the few.” and what that would actually mean. Also, the general populism is just annoying although it’s ideologically consistent, I suppose.
It’s not like I like the right-wing parties either, but at least they’re (mostly) capitalistic, although they’re not really for actually free markets which is of course annoying. And I feel that there are others that are in a similar bind as me, where there really isn’t a good party for them. It’s frustrating.
