Ba'athism, also known as Saddamism or Assadism (depending if it's Iraq or Syria respectively), is an Authoritarian Left, Arab Nationalist, culturally variable, and Anti-Zionist Ideology. In the political compass he is close to Authoritarian center, towards the left. He believes in a unified Arab state led by a revolutionary government under a vanguard party. He is very anti-pornography, hates wahhabists and theocracies, and despises imperialism.

History

Creation

The origins of Ba'athism began with Zaki al-Arsuzi and Michel Aflaq. While Aflaq, Bitar and Arsuzi were never members of the same organization, they are considered the founders of Baathism. Arsuzi formed the Arab Baath Party in 1940 and his views influenced Aflaq, who alongside junior partner Salah al-Din al-Bitar founded the Arab Ihya Movement in 1940 that later renamed itself the Arab Baath Movement in 1943. Though Aflaq was influenced by him, Arsuzi did not cooperate with Aflaq's movement. Arsuzi suspected that the existence of the Arab Ihya Movement, which occasionally titled itself "Arab Baath", was part of an imperialist plot to prevent his influence over the Arabs by creating a movement of the same name. When Arsuzi left the League of Nationalist Action (LNA) party in 1939 after its leader died and the party had fallen into disarray, he founded the short-lived Arab National Party in 1939 and dissolved it later that year. On 29 November 1940, Arsuzi founded the Arab Baath.

1940s

A significant conflict and turning point in the development of Baathism occurred when Arsuzi's and Aflaq's movements sparred after the 1941 coup d'etat by Rashid Ali al-Gaylani and the Anglo-Iraqi War. Aflaq's movement supported al-Gaylani's government and the Iraqi government's war against the British and organized volunteers to go to Iraq and fight for the Iraqi government. However, Arsuzi opposed al-Gaylani's government, considering the coup to be poorly-planned and a failure. At this point, Arsuzi's party lost members and support that transferred to Aflaq's movement. Subsequently, Arsuzi's direct influence in Arab politics collapsed after Vichy French authorities expelled him from Syria. The Arab Baath Movement's next major political action was its support of Lebanon's war of independence from France in 1943. The Arab Baath Movement did not solidify for years until it held its first party congress in 1947, when it merged with the Arab Socialist Party led by Akram al-Hawrani to establish the Arab Socialist Baath Party.

Syria

Assadism, a Syrian form of Ba'athism, came to power in Syria in 1963 when the Ba'ath Party was established as the ruling party in Syria. The Ba'ath Party stayed a unified group in Syria and its neighbors until 1966 when it splittered into the Syrian and Iraqi dominated factions. Syrian Ba'athist Party member Bashar Hafez al-Assad became the the 19th president of Syria in 2000 and had eventually led to him being discredited by many as being an authoritarian dictatorship. This led to major protests by Syrian civilains which eventually spiraled into a rebellion by 2011, largely coordinated by the self-acclaimed 'Syrian Opposition', leading into a full on civil war when the opposition splinttered along the lines of Islamic Democrats, Sunni fundementalists, National Liberals and sometimes, even Jihadists. As time passed, within the northern region of the nation, many of the Kurdish minority, having felt neglected and ignored by the Syrian government, unified under the ideology and Democratic Confederalism and later also got involved in the war under the administration of the "autonomous region" of Rojava. The Islamic State got involved in 2013 but lost most of its territory by 2017. The Free Syrian Army also came into existense as a loose collection of militant factions within the Islamic Democrats without any singular unifying ideology, however were all unified by the desire to overthrow the Syrian Ba'athists and Assad. Eventually, overtime, the large-support of the opposition eventually began to die out within the population, which has led to a large amount of rebel-owned territory being lost, with many rebel factions that are currently still active in the civil-war either being allied or ideologically aligned with hard-core Islamist fundementalists, Jihadists, Pro-Turkish Insurgents, or having integrated themselves within the administration of Rojava and the SDF, with those who did the ladder tended to follow more liberal-leaning ideologies, with many factions following ideologies such as moderate Syrian Patriotism, secularism, Democracy, anti-racism, or even alligning with the ideology of Democratic Confederalism, with certain rebel factions including but not limiting, the The Army of Revolutionaries, The Kurdish Front, The Seljuk Brigade, Northern Democratic Brigade, Northern Sun Battalion, Idlib Revolutionaries Brigade, Jaysh al-Salam, and the Euphrates Jarabulus Battalions to name a few most well known SDF-FSA groups. Assyrian SDF allied groups such as the Syriac Union Party hold their own ideology of Dawronoye which takes great influence from Democratic Confederalism while promoting Nationalism and autonomy for indigenous Assyrians, as well as being affiliated with certain moderate opposition groups such as the National Coordination Committee for Democratic Change.

During the history of Assad and his rule, he has been criticized during his leadership for being ruthless in his efforts to defeat the opposition. For example, he has been widely regarded for being responsible for numerous war crimes during the civil conflict, such as with the Ghouta chemical attacks in 2013, where bombs and sarin gas was used indiscriminately in civilian populations, as well as the Khan Shaykhun chemical attack in 2017 where similar methods of bombing, airstrikes, and sarin gas were used leading to numerous civilian casualties.

Iraq

Saddamism, an Iraqi form of Ba'athism, came to power in Iraq when Saddam Hussein was established as a dictator in 1968 by the Iraqi-dominated faction of the Ba'athist party due to the 17 July Revolution. Saddam also entered a war against Iran during the Iran-Iraq War, but almost lost until Saudi aid came. Saddam then made peace with Iran. In 1990, Saddamist Iraq invades and annexes Kuwait after a 2-day campaign. This is met with distaste from the international community which led to an invasion in 1991. Iraq eventually loses the war but Saddam Hussein retains power, but the country is stripped of a lot of its resources. After feeling betrayed by Arab nations from the war, Saddam started to shift away from Arab nationalism to implementing more Islamic laws in Iraq (which would later be called the "Faith Campaign"). Iraq was invaded by a US-led international coalition in 2003, who took down the Saddamist regime, disbanded the Iraqi Republican Guard, and attempted to establish a republic. This republic would fail and lead to years of violence all the way to 2017 in the Iraq War that including Khomeinists, Democratic Confederalists, Jihadists, and (after 2013) the Islamic State. Several Saddamists and Ba'athists would attempt to regain power in Iraq during the Iraq War until 2006 when Saddam Hussein was executed by the US government, ending the Ba'athist age.

Today, pro-Saddam Ba'athist parties still remain, although unpopular with limited influence in Iraqi politics.

Beliefs

The Arab nation is a united Arab state that would would transform the Arab world politically, economically, intellectually and morally. Liberty is freedom and would be ensured by a Baath party which was not elected by the populace because the party had the common good at heart. Ba'athism likes socialism because they think it would be necessary for the Arabs to achieve an Arab state. Islam would be admired by all but not imposed onto the state and society.

Personality and Behavior

Ba'athism is very anti-pornography. Whenever someone goes to watch porn he pops out of nowhere and says stuff like "YOU HAVE BEEN ASSADED!!!". He hates Wahhabists and theocracies. He sees them as a threat and often goes on rants on how they are "fake muslims". He despises imperialism and imperialists. He gets very violent whenever he sees one. He hates being called just another ideology based around Authoritarianism. "I AM NOT HIM! WE ARE TWO VERY DIFFERENT PEOPLE! IT'S A LIE BY Neoconservatism AGAIN!", he says in a very deep voice.
