I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make here? But to go along with what I assume your analog is, if you’re talking about height then you need to say you’re talking about height regardless of what unit you’re using. “Two metre box” means constrains only one dimension, much the same as the word anarchy by itself does.
the phase space of vague stuff like political ideology would have an arbitrary large number of parameters, not whatever 2 you see in memes.
Weird to hear this from the person who moments ago was arguing that there’s no problem projecting this concept on an even smaller number of dimensions.
I’ve been saying that it’s a vague oversimplification. and it’s useless when comparing certain ideologies.
you can’t put categorically complex things in a line, if you do. if you do, like any dimensionality reduction. you will lose a lot of information in the process

just because an ideology predates the left right spectrum (quite flawed as it is but this isn’t the problem), doesn’t mean it can be put in there.
fascism and democracies predated the left-right spectrum, would you say they can’t be there
The political compass has both an X and a Y dimension, you know. As it happens, the Y dimension exists almost specifically because of anarchy.
The political compass isn’t a good way to view political ideology in any way. You can’t distill ideology into 4 vaguely defined quadrants.
oh god, don’t bring even more BS into here.

Is the society so painfully brainrotted that people genuinely think memes are realities?
