Mountainous, densely populated Japan has little land available for large solar farms, so developers are erecting arrays on many of the now disused golf courses that proliferated during the country's 1980s economic boom.

From occupied Jerusalem to the occupied West Bank and beyond, Israel uses archaeology to rewrite history and displace Palestinians from their land. Palestine has been inhabited for hundreds of thousands of years, with waves of empires and cultures leaving layers of their presence behind - so who decided that one layer gets dibs over the others? And who decided that zionist settlers are the custodians of that past?

I’m Andres Acevedo, and this is The Market Exit. In this essay, I challenge one of the most pervasive frameworks in political discourse: the left-right spectrum. Where does it come from, and why does it continue to dominate how we think about politics today? More importantly, is it helping us understand the world—or is it just reinforcing tribalism? We’ll explore the history of the left-right spectrum, its origins during the French Revolution, and why the so-called “essentialist theory” of politics—claiming there’s a core essence to being left or right—falls apart under scrutiny. I also dive into research and examples that demonstrate how political opinions are shaped more by social conformity than by consistent ideological principles. Much of the inspiration for this essay comes from Hyrum and Verlan Lewis’s excellent book, The Myth of Left and Right, which I highly recommend if you’re curious to dive deeper into this topic. *** 📺 Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction 01:03 Chapter 1 – Where the left-right spectrum came from 03:58 Chapter 2 – Political astrology: The essentialist theory of politics 07:27 Chapter 3 – Political tribalism: The social theory of politics 10:02 Conclusion – So where does this leave us? 13:20 Thank you How you can SUPPORT me: 🙏 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themarketexit 💫 Swish (Swe only): 123-333 34 65 Where you can FIND me: 📱 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themarketexit 👨‍👩‍👧 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/themarketexit 🌐 Personal Webpage: https://andresacevedo.com 🌐 Channel Webpage: https://themarketexit.com 👔 LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/andresace 🐥 Twitter (The Market Exit): https://twitter.com/themarketexit 🐥 Twitter (Personal): https://twitter.com/andresswe 💌 Email: [email protected] #leftvsright #politics #themarketexit
