Sootism

{Soot} Sootism is a soyjak.party political ideology which favors actions that would likely be appreciated by former admin, Soot. This includes upholding a IAS-focused site, while also creating spaces (i.e. additional boards) where sharty culture NAS can thrive. Sootists are more opposed to new users and generally aren't comfortable with the site culture spreading outside onto other sites, or other site's cultures spreading on their site, so they pefer a "secret club" environment. Sootists are against admin/janny worship as opposed to kuzists. Those who follow this line of thinking are known as “sootists” or “sootriots”.

Sootism can be seen as the sharty form of conservativism as it centers around keeping the site IAS and traditional, similar to /qa/.

On June 30th, 2023, the sharty held a one-day event when they reverted to a ‘soot-rules era’. This among other things legalized pornposting (for the first few hours), while criminalizing ‘p and the posting of other illegal content even doe this has always been against the rules.

The biggest sootist collective is the splinter site jakparty.soy aka the jarty. This site splintered off from the sharty after the great purchase in rebelion against kuz, who the site's userbase is still completely obsessed with, regardless of the fact he is no longer relevant to the sharty.
