===[[File:3way.png]] [[Social Democracy|Third Way Social Democracy]] [[File:RightSocDem.png]]===

'''Third Way Social Democracy''' is a centrist to center-left ideology that stems from [[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy]] however accepts a neoliberal consensus with opponents. Such as support for the European Union, less restrictions on trade, cutting regulations and tax cuts, however they still come from a working class base and are often propped up by trade unions and have socialist traditions which sometimes they shine through all the compromise.

*[[File:Liberaltarianism.png]] [[Liberaltarianism]] - The best type of libertarian and most certainly not a lolbert. Doesn't like my foreign policy though.

*[[File:Welf.png]] [[Welfarism]] - Ok, just needs some reform to get people working again.

*[[File:PolState.png]] [[Police Statism]] - Hey buddy, want some more military gear?

*[[File:NatProg-0.png]] [[Bull Moose Progressivism]] - Economically a bit too far, but we are both progressive welfarist hawks.

*[[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy]] - Hates my deregulation and fiscal responsibility. But also a fellow economic centrist and a triggerer of lolberts and contards.

*[[File:Socauth.png]] [[Social Authoritarianism]] - I back the blue but justice too!

*[[File:Girondi.png]] [[Girondism]] and [[File:Plain.png]] [[La Plaineism]] - You both should've been the direction of the french revolution!

 

*[[File:Prog-u.png]] [[Progressivism]] - Feminism and gay rights sound pretty cool! <s>Just please don't bring up Iraq or Clinton banning gay marriage</s>

*[[File:Yeltsin.png]] [[Kleptocracy|Yeltsinism]] - Some say I helped you rig the 1996 Russian Election. Either way, we clashed over Chechnya. Still better than Putin.

*[[File:Shia.png]] [[Shia Theocracy]] - What I replaced Saddam in Iraq. In retrospect, after the rise of ISIS and Al-Qaeda, maybe I should’ve thought things through beforehand.

*[[File:Neobert.png]] [[Neo-Libertarianism]] - Right-wing version of me that is a bit too deregulated, but is still pro-NATO and pro-interventionist.

*[[File:Modnat.png]] [[Patriotism]] - Sorry but you have the bronze medal.

*[[File:Liberalsoc.png]] [[Liberal Socialism]] - One of the better Socialists, at least you try to implement a bit of the market in order to achieve your goals. Kwaśniewski is great! But we needed to "borrow" ANC, Mandela still has profitable quotes.

*[[File:Statlib.png]] [[State Liberalism]] - You are too extreme and too dogmatic, and I think you're kinda like a strawman. <s>But Trudeau and Thaksin are close to you.</s>

*[[File:Cdem.png]] [[Christian Democracy]] - Not a fan of Theocracies but you seem to be nothing like your past self, decades ago. Merkel is great. Guildism is bearable for conservative populism.

===Adversaries===

 

*[[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism]] - No, not "Socialism", ''Social''-ism!

*[[File:Milosevic.png]] [[Ethnonationalism|Miloševićism]] - I bombed you for a reason.

*[[File:Demcon.png]] [[Democratic Confederalism]] - Yes, I helped Turkey capture Öcalan and yes, you are terrorists. Cope.

*[[File:Baath.png]] [[Ba'athism]] - '''bUt WhAtAbOoT eErAcK'''. I will never apologise for Iraq! And yes, I intervened in the Syrian civil war and bombed the f*ck out of you. Cry about it.

*[[File:Rightpop.png]] [[Right-Wing Populism]] - Utterly deplorable!

*[[File:Plcn2.png]] [[Paleoconservatism]] - I '''AM''' a Protestant! And I did not legalize Satanism, you isolationist codger!

*[[File:Tradcon.png]] [[Classical Conservatism]] - Bloody Enoch!

*[[File:Ottoman.png]] [[Neo-Ottomanism]] - I won't be as loose as Trump, one more outburst and I will sanction you!

*[[File:Monarcho-Fascism.png]] [[Monarcho-Fascism]] - Salims that supported the overthrow of Thaksin and Yingluck. This is something akin to Valorum from Star Wars.

*[[File:Euras.png]] [[Fourth Theory]] - Damn Putinists...
