That might have sounded intelligent in your head but i assure you its not.
There is nothing physically impossible about libertarianism. Such a weak criticism.



Libertarian-anarchism is science fiction, i can confirm, maybe possible in like... 1000 or 10.000 years ?...
Considering human specie survive and maintain its technological progress.

It's true, because at this stage, it will be probably possible to live without constrains like -money- or -food issues- or -vital space- ... Full hardware freedom.
You get it ?

In waiting this awesome era... Let's try to have something balanced, especially when theres several different nations and cultures running on the same planet.

What you can do is to promote decentralization, im ok with this (especially considering the size of your country)

Btw are you a secessionist ?

Note how many of the questions implicitly demonstrate that libertarianism is not in fact on the side of oligarchs and special privileges, but rather explicitly opposed.


Theory is nice, but wait each corporate start to create its own private police & army....

I dont have 10 years of posts on hand.
I have spoken out a large number of times on government giving power and benefits to the few at the expense of others. Countless posts bashing crony capitalism.
I dont have to jump and prove something to you every time you make a demand of me and question my character.

Acting like a POS and lying about me is despicable. You can stop anytime now.


that's not what he's talking about, no one here can recall one instance of you condemning anything the private sector has done
you just find creative ways to blame everything and anything on the govt

I am an advocate of the non aggression principle. If they are murdering, stealing, assaulting, defrauding, etc i'm against it.
Complaining that i support the legality of voluntary capitalist activities is not quite the same as supporting slavery and oligarchy or 'supporting any evil thing they do'

Monopolistic behemoths that came into existence because of crony capitalism means libertarianism is practically impossible to achieve... That is, anything short of executing the board of directors of every existing corporation and completely dismantling the corporate structure and taking all of their accumulated wealth and giving it back to society so that everyone starts over from the same point...


Whoa, wait a minute. Libertarianism requires the same conditions as communism to achieve. So interesting.

Libertarianism does not at all require executing everyone, taking their possessions and starting from a totally equal material position.

So, what's voluntary about a government-imposed corporate monopoly being allowed to control access to information and the sharing of ideas (aka free speech) by creating a fragmented internet that they will sell to you at a profit? Explain how you can possibly support taking away net neutrality without first dismantling the crony capitalist system that prevents the very competitive mechanism your entire philosophy requires to function?

Sure it does. The wealthy and the powerful corporate entities were conceived under a system of government protection and benefit. Simply removing the government while allowing those who exploited the government (and by extension the people) for gain to keep what they stole is called kleptocracy, not libertarianism.

In the case of these crony ISPs fighting net neutrality, they are arguing that the amount of investment in them has dropped since 2015.

Well fucking sure it did. We the people paid them billions of tax dollars to expand high-speed broadband to every household in this nation. They pocketed the money and they will never give it back. And they want to shake us down for more. And they can because the government protects them.

Supporting this move by Mr. Verizon Ajit Pai is the very antithesis of what libertarianism stands for. I would know. I am a libertarian socialist after all.

If we eliminated the government today it still wouldn't be a libertarian or free market situation because the power that was currently achieved was done under a government and will remain a major influence for hundreds of years.

The only way to get a free market is to wipe the slate clean.

Net neutrality being eliminated is a giant favor to the corporations currently running the system unless you also hit a larger reset button that erases the advantages they have received.

Advocating for a loss of net neutrality without also advocating for that larger button is just being a fake libertarian that sucks corporate dick.
