    IMMORAL, UNETHICAL, IRRATIONAL, LIBERTY DESTROYING ROTHBARDIANS.

    Once you realize that rothbardian libertarians are genetically biased to act immorally, and that Rothbardianism helps them justify their immorality, then you realize that they’re just as impossible to discourse with rationally as progressives. Both are morally blind to the majority of the moral spectrum. Conservatives see the entire moral spectrum. The problem is that they use allegorical language, so it’s very hard to get them to talk about this subject in rational, economic terms. It’s just not intuitive to them that their philosophy is simply one of hyper efficient economics – the most trustworthy society yet developed. And since they’re the most trustworthy, they’re the most economically productive.

    Meanwhile they’re losing the battle against deceitful left, and immoral libertarians.

    The only solution for libertarianism is to return its foundations to their original ethics of aristocracy and nobility, and as a consequence to the thought leadership of the conservatives.

    http://www.propertarianism.com/glossary/TO MY MANY TERMINOLOGY CRITICS 🙂

    I don’t like to just ‘point’ to my glossary entries every time I use some term. I’d rather defend each term in context – it’s like physical fitness. I get better at my arguments with every ‘set of reps’.

    In a perfect world, every time a use a term, FB would link to it in my glossary. (Even on my web site I have to do it manually).

    But my Glossary is 50K words of definitions. I started it in 2009. I don’t really have to add to it all that often any longer.

    I periodically take a given letter (A-Z) and update it. But you know, it’s turned out to be pretty stable.

    Some terms are marked “undone” so that I go back and finish them. Some could use some clarification.

    My original intention was to emphasize those terms that I have modified or which I’ve created. But many many terms have been modified to abandon enlightenment errors and introduce propertarian corrections to those terms.

    REPOSITIONING HOPPE

    1) “The failures of Praxeology, Rothbardian Ethics, and Argumentation to withstand rational and scientific criticism do not diminish Hoppe’s solutions to the problems of democracy, monopoly bureaucracy, and the private production of public goods.”

    Cheers.
