I am neither a bootlicker nor an authoritarian apologist.
I am a consistent and principled libertarian.


Yes, this is definitely how everybody views you due to your stunning record on the subject.

You are the dishonest TDS authoritarian who has an obsession with restricting the liberty of Americans.
Lying about these things is not convincing anyone.


He is not saying anyone who disagrees with him is Hitler
Mises was criticizing the actual Hitler while he was in power in your country


LOL

Quit trolling dude. You loved Trump!

Examining and understanding the rise of Hitler and totalitarian ideologies is important and intellectually valid.

Pretending libertarians who are in the process of speaking out against authoritarianism are somehow the real authoritarian bootlickers is an absurdity.

I posted a Mises quote with nothing else and that is what you responded to.

You have falsely called countless people fascists and racists and were met with that meme.
You desperately wanted to turn it around on someone else.. but sadly for you it didn't apply.


I get it. You wanted to deflect from the criticism of progressivism and authoritarianism. Thats your team. Your religion. It made you uncomfortable and upset and angry.
But getting angry at me and making unintelligent and nonsensical false accusations are not an argument and do not refute what was said.

It's ridiculous to think that progressivism or liberalism comes within a mile of "Hitlerism". Liberalism is an inherently centrist ideology, and progressivism (which I assume he meant what we would now maybe call leftism) is literally the exact opposite side of the political spectrum from Naziism.

The only way this flies is if "Hitlerism" is a stupid word that just means "authoritarianism", in which case left and right can be authoritarian so it still doesn't make sense.

It's the kind of thing an edgy 16 year old would think is smart, but you're supposed to grow up and actually learn what words mean. You've failed to do that which is why you're universally mocked.

Alas, many "libertarians" don't do this. Many of them are willing to accept authoritarianism because it "owns the libs." Many of them adhere to the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" ideology.

I can't blame people for thinking you are THAT type of libertarian. You simply failed to convince people.

you're not just a trump bootlicker, you're also dishonest little garbage person if you're suggesting posting that was not intended as an attack on today's progressives. an absurd one to be fair, but coming from a self-identifying "libertarian" (lol), who has a long history of downplaying authoritarian behaviour and rhetoric, as well as making shitty excuses for white supremacists, so it's not really that surprising.

That was probably the first time I have quoted Mises in awhile.

I have no interest in placating a low quality individual who will pretend whatever I say that he doesn't like is evil in lieu of an argument.

This type of simplistic and elementary false understanding of history and economics was critiqued in the very writing that quote comes from and in his other writings.

Totalitarian ideologies with much in common are not complete opposites. Labeling them opposites does not disprove the position.

Nowhere does Mises state that Liberalism is Hitlerism. Mises advocated Classical Liberalism over Socialism and wrote a number of exemplary books to that effect.

This more aptly applies to your posts here. You are unable and unwilling to tackle the content and points so you resort to this childish posturing and snobbery.
A handful of addled authoritarian leftists disliking me for criticizing their ideology and not sharing their political beliefs is not 'universal mockery' and such immature claims do not prove me wrong.
You have the understanding and false arrogance of a middle school atheist.
