I started ‘coming out’ against Austro (Misesian) Libertarian (Rothbardian) Pseudoscience, Immorality and Impossibility in December of ’13 or so. And I’ve built up a set of pieces since then that outline the arguments. It wasn’t really until June that I put the last pieces together and understood just why mises failed and rothbard was able to get away with is nonsense.

This set of sketches outline the main arguments that constitute the Aristocratic Egalitarian criticism of the fallacies of the Austro Libertarians. While I’ll continue working on the book until it’s as close to perfect as I can get it, these posts will provide the red pill that lets you see Austro Libertarianism as the utter nonsense that it is. If you need more than this, then you’ll have to wait for me to finish. But I kind of think the educated person won’t need to.
