Quellism is the political theory created by Quellcrist Falconer for the establishment of a hi-tech social democracy, having elements of socialism and anarchism. Quellism was an expression of Quell's exasperation with both the inherent self-serving, elitist, corruption of right-wing politics and the back-biting, self-absorption of the left. Quellism takes many tenets from ancient anarchist thinkers such as Proudhon and Bakunin, however Quell modified these principles to create a practical post-revolutionary ideology, grounded in a clear understanding of human foibles, checks and balances, and necessary social systems.
