THE DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO PRESERVE THE TERM “LIBERTARIANISM” NOW THAT ROTHBARDIANISM IS FALSIFIED.
SOVEREIGNTY(made) !=FREEDOM(given) != LIBERTY(permitted)
“Libertarianism is….”
So, which thing are you talking about?
Sovereignty?
The earning of freedom (freeman)
The liberty of the freed slave?
The liberty of license to retain local laws?
The liberty of taking license with norms?
The Liberty of the french – political equality?
The Liberty of the English – permission from the crown
The Libertarian of the American – against marxism
The Libertarian of the Rothbardian – against commons.
One asks permissions from god and permissions from the government. A sovereign simply *IS* sovereign because his agency cannot be imposed upon by a third party.
Which of those two are the origins of western civilization?
Liberty, or sovereignty?
HISTORY OF TERMS:
—“At first of persons; of communities, “state of being free from arbitrary, despotic, or autocratic rule or control” is from late 15c.
The French notion of liberty is political equality; the English notion is personal independence. [William R. Greg, “France in January 1852” in “Miscellaneous Essays”]”—
—“Political sense of “person advocating the greatest possible liberty in thought and conduct” is from 1878. As an adjective by 1882. U.S. Libertarian Party founded in Colorado, 1971. Related: Libertarianism (1849 in religion, 1901 in politics).”—
THESE ARE PERMISSIONS – NOT SOVEREIGNTY
WHY DOES IT MATTER?
The abrahamic use of half truths and terminological appropriation to grant meaning and authority or gravity or persuasive power to that which does not possess it.
So. If as true, the political philosophy of libertarianism > anarcho capitlism was in fact invented by rothbard as the Rothbardian’s claim, then I have killed libertarianism (and I think that’s settled.)
If you want to do as hayek did, and use the word libertarian to refer to classical liberalism. Well, that’s a part of the democratic revolution against aristocracy and the church by the middle class, as part of the enlightenment.
If you want to recast the middle class pursuit of liberty by permission as an imitation of the origional sovereignty of western civilization, that might convey ‘meaning’ out of ‘ease’ but is is not TRUE.
If you want to claim the basis of western civlization is LIBERTY AND LIBERTARIANISM that is simply false. It’s not even logically possible.
HEROISM > SOVEREIGNTY > THE OATH/THE JURY/RULE OF LAW > MARKETS IN EVERYTHING
That is the sequence and I can find no falsification of it.
What I find is a lot of traditionalists trying to state falsehoods to preserve their malinvestments.
THIS IS WHY I REQUIRE OPERATIONAL LANGUAGE: TO DEFEAT THE ABRAHAMIC TECHNIQUES OF DECEPTION.
