OFFICIALLY “UNWELCOME”
Well, it’s official that I’m “Unwelcome” at the Property and Freedom Society. Which, while my former home, and group of friends, is the last remnant of the cosmopolitan pseudoscience we call misesian-rothbardian libertarianism.
Not that I didn’t expect it (or actually work to achieve it), and someone has to do the dirty work. 🙂 But it’s kind of interesting none the less.
There is only one source of liberty: the use of arms to prevent the possession of power. Liberty is made at the point of a sharp object.

I understand marketing.
If I wrote quiet little pieces over years, I would make no difference and be unknown. If I wrote something as elegant as Aristocratic Egalitarianism, Propertarianism, Testimonial Truth, and Operationalism, and published it in a backwater press, it would gather dust.
But I come out swinging and ready to take all comers. I did it on purpose. You can read it. It’s out there. It worked. I created awareness. 🙂
Everyone is drawn to conflict. 🙂 Put on your brass knuckles and pick fights. Teach other guys to fight. Start a fight club.
All publicity is good publicity.
Pick fights. If you want to restore violence to the discourse, pick fights.

I love my family, my friends, and even my opponents in the great game. Thank you god for all of them. Even the ones who want to kill me. :).

What does it mean when your significant other goes in vacation without you for ten days? 😉

A BIAS AGAINST CONFLICT
We all have our goals in life. Our preferences and our biases. I am not unaware that my ultimate bias is against conflict. I hate it. I am really good at it, precisely because I hate it. My household as a child was filled with constant conflict. I worried about my mother all the time. So in developing a political philosophy it is somewhat obvious that the defining property of propertarianism, is that it’s rationally calculable, in any an all circumstances. As such all disputes are rationally decidable. I don’t care what political order you choose, any more than I care what sport you play. What I care about is that you don’t steal from me, and I won’t steal from you. Because stealing of one kind or another is the source of all human conflict. After you suppress stealing, everything else is merely envy. And envy it turns out, if you can’t steal, is a pretty good motivator.

Serious question: How do all those cookie and pastry crumbs get under the hardshell case of my mac? Seriously.
