If I'm seeing it correctly, this should be Environmentalism/Mandelaism?

The main principles of democratic confederalism can be summarized in:[5][6][8]

• The new political, philosophical and ideological approaches of the Kurdish liberation movement finds its most appropriate expression in the so-called democratic socialism. A free Kurdistan is only conceivable as a democratic Kurdistan.
• The Kurdish movement does not work for creating a Kurdish nation-state based on the right of self-determination of peoples, but considers this right "as the basis for the establishment of grassroots democracies" without aiming new political borders and is seeking to a system of democratic self-organization in Kurdistan with the features of a confederation that "provides a frame-work within which inter alia minorities, religious communities, cultural groups, gender-specific groups and other societal groups" can organize themselves autonomously.
• The democratization process in Kurdistan encompasses "a broad societal project aiming at the economic, social and political sovereignty of all parts of the society", as well as the creation of necessary institutions and the elaboration of instruments that guarantee and enable society self-government and democratic control, in which each decision-making process (organized in open councils, municipal councils, local and general parliaments) should have the direct involvement of local communities. A self-government model allow a more adequate implementation of basic values such as freedom and equality.
• The solution of the Kurdish question should be tried together with a process of democratization not only of all countries that exercise hegemonic power over the different parts of Kurdistan, but also extends across the entire Middle East. A new democratic policy, however, could only exist from democratic parties and their affiliated institutions "committed to the interests of the society instead of fulfilling state orders".
• While this democratic reforms is not yet possible, a peaceful coexistence with the nation-state is admitted as long as there is no intervention in central issues of self-government or attempts at social assimilation, as well as this coexistence does not mean acceptance of its "classic state structure with its despotic attitude of power". At the end of this process of subjection to democratic reforms, the nation-state must become a more modest political institution, functioning as a social authority that observes functions only in the fields of internal security and in the provision of social services, and its state-related sovereign rights are only limited.
• The health system and the right to native language and culture education must be warranted by both state and civil society.
• The freedom and rights of women must be a strategic part of the fight for freedom and democracy in Kurdistan, as well as the environmental protection must be taken seriously during the process of social change.
• The individual freedoms of expression and choice are irrevocable. Freedom of information is not only an individual right, but an important social issue who depends on the existence of an independent media whose communication with the public is marked by democratic balance.
• The economic resources are not the property of the state but of the society, and its just redistribution is also extremely essential "for the liberation process of the society". An economy committed to the population should also be based on the implementation of an alternative economic policy that does not aim solely at profit, but a production based on sharing and in satisfying basic natural needs for all.

Yeah looks like Democratic Confederalism.

When most people think of a Confederation, they think of the Confederate States of America, which isn't the only confederacy in the world. The Holy Roman Empire, especially later on, is one of the most famous Confederacy in the world.

Essentially, Democratic Confederalism is an idea of increased states' rights over the Central Government but where the people are given the responsibility. Unlike Confederalism which forces it upon the citizenry, the democratic version merely *insists* upon it.

Mandelaism sounds about right tbh.

To put it in your slice of life: you probably think nations like Wales, Scotland, and North Ireland should get more representation and power within the UK.

Because most political Ideologies are actually just a handful, but people wanted DLC expansions for them

So as a test I put my Nazi hat on (I don't actually own a Nazi hat, it's just a figure of speech) to see what result I got. In other words I picked that homosexuality is bad, the sole purpose of women is to cook, clean and make babies and the government should have total and complete control over us all

I can think of many things a nazi are known for and those ain't it.
