'''Tridemism''' (三民主義, the Three Principles of the People) is Dr. Sun Yat-sen's doctrine — nationalism (民族), people's sovereignty/democracy (民權), and people's livelihood (民生) the founding ideology of the Chinese republican revolution and, in Infrared's reading, China's indigenous form of socialism.
"'''"Tridemism''' Sun Yat-sen's Three Principles has not been discussed by name in Infrared's transcribed streams, though its substance appears throughout Haz's China arguments.


== The three principles ==
[This page awaits direct stream sourcing.]
* '''Nationalism''': liberation of China from semi-colonial domination and the "unequal treaties"; later reinterpreted as the unity of China's nationalities.
* '''Democracy''': popular rule through the five-power constitution, but mediated by a period of political tutelage — democracy as a stage to be built, not an overnight import.
* '''Livelihood''': land to the tiller, regulation of capital, state control of key industries — Sun explicitly said his principle subsumed what Westerners call socialism, adapted to Chinese conditions.


== After Sun ==
Adjacent sourced terrain:
The KMT right under Chiang Kai-shek hollowed out the third principle, serving landlord and comprador interests; the CCP under Mao claimed Sun's authentic legacy — Mao: "we are successors of Sun Yat-sen." The PRC constitution names Sun as forerunner; both parties across the strait still invoke him.
* The CCP's valorization of Sun Yat-sen as legitimating forerunner ([https://infrared-transcripts.pages.dev/en/kick/infrared/2ddd2d78-2193-45bf-874d-7b5976daee61/ Political bloodsports debate]).
* Sun's rejection of dogmatic imported Marxism in favor of confronting China's own conditions ([https://infrared-transcripts.pages.dev/en/kick/infrared/6e6a6ada-5c30-4542-b400-55039e5772fe/ KAMALA TRUMP DEBATE stream]).
* Taiwan separatism opposed as imperial project against Chinese territorial integrity ([https://infrared-transcripts.pages.dev/en/kick/infrared/0c383ecb-e747-41b7-a5f7-e798f2b19ac1/ RED PILL NEWS stream]).


== Infrared significance ==
Until named directly, this page records the gap rather than inventing a position.
Tridemism is Infrared's prime exhibit that '''socialism is always national in form''': a successful revolution fuses patriotism with social revolution rather than importing cosmopolitan ideology. It anchors the analogy between MAGA Communism and earlier patriotic fronts (see [[Dr. Sun Yat-Sen]], [[MAGA Communism]], [[German Road to Socialism]]).
