NOT REASON. —“….libertarians believe….”— Libertarian Party 0) Everything you subsidize will increase in consumption thereby increasing the overall proportion of productivity used to consume it. The only question is whether like engines of the animal, mechanical or digital categories, they produce higher returns for doing so – or not. 1) Libertarianism persists fallen angel version of man vs the risen beast, slowly domesticated by the violent imposition of demand for reciprocity under that law we call tort. Findings of Law, Legislation, and Regulation do in fact limit scams and frauds. … and …. 2) … so the problem is not law, and regulation, but the inability of the consumer to judge the product delivered to him, and the use of redistribution to compensate those who engage in fraud that takes advantage of that ignorance. 3) This is an example of a common (infantlie) libertarian trope:that the consumer can possess sufficient information to avoid irreciprocity, and that the insurer of last resort should not force due diligence in the service of the market by those who might abuse asymmetry of info. 4) Jewish law, which is the source of left libertarianism, only enforces the demand for volition,and not warranty. European law, which is the source of liberalism, enforces reciprocity and warranty. There is a reason for the historical incompatibility, of the two ethical systems. 5) We are faced today with not only the difference between Anglo classical liberal and reciprocal, germanic reciprocal proportional, french authoritarian socialist proportional, jewish voluntary unwarrantied, but now Islamic Authoritarian irreciprocal law of conquest. 6) Libertarians are wrong. Whether they are wrong because they are infantile, or wrong because they have parasitic preferences is immaterial. There is only one source of liberty: sovereignty and reciprocity, truth and duty, the law of tort and jury, violence and defense. 7) Sovereignty exists in fact. Liberty by the permission of the sovereign. Freedom by the utility of the sovereign. And sovereignty has but one source, and that is the organized application of violence to deny all other alternatives. 8) Welcome to the revolution. Those who fight will have sovereignty not liberty or freedom. Those who do not fight will have none.

Young people were more tied to their families and communities, but that was because they were BROKE and there were no decent jobs. I see the same behavior in the Millennial problems of today the problems of these places 20 years ago. Eking out an existence, living in the parents’ basement. Actually it is probably better than that in the US in a lot of cases now. But in Italy and Argentina things are generally worse.”—Michael Churchill

(FB 1548905811 Timestamp) by John Mark The only thing I’d clarify about this is that there are a couple areas where the Left has been operating in reality better than the Right. So:
- Copy the Left’s tactic of gossip rally ridicule shame? No. Maybe to help win an election as a short-term play to buy us time, but not as a long-term solution. (The solution is outlaw pollution of the informational commons with lies.)
Copy the Left’s understanding that identity politics wins, and that racial identity is a more powerful petsuasive force for most people (especially nonwhites) than any political ideology or set of ideas? Yes. The Right has tried to be race-blind with disastrous consequences. The Left’s reality-based success with this (colonize us with nonwhites & play identity politics with them) fools many right-wingers, because the Left lies about race, but their actions & strategy are more in line with reality in this area than the Right’s have been. We must learn from them in this area. (Race matters in political persuasion for nonwhites, more than anything else. We must deal with this reality.)
The Left understands that it is all about holding the reins of power, not about “principle” or teaching people. Whoever makes the rules, rules. Whoever makes the rules, gets what they want. They go straight for the jugular: power. Without regard for anything else. Meanwhile, the Right has been trying to “be principled” and teach people (to explain/educate our way to victory). This is a mistake – truth matters not unless truth-enforcers have power and make the rules. Principles mean nothing without the power to enforce them. The Right must learn from the Left in this area.
The Left knows how to be intolerant, to punish its enemies swiftly and harshly. Certain parts of the Right have tried to embrace tolerance (libertarians, classical liberals), with the predictable result that classical liberals and libertarians have zero power. The Right must learn from the Left in this area.
What confuses the Right is that everything that comes out of the Left’s mouth is a lie. Their communication is all gossip rally ridicule shame (feminine). And we rightly say, “That is not us.” But then we look around and say, “Why do they have all the institutional power?” Well, because their actions (strategy/tactics) have been more in line with reality than the Right’s.
So yes, the alt-right’s “let’s do ridicule better than the Left” is not our long-term answer. But we must recognize the areas where the Left has operated in reality better than we have, and course correct. Without losing our essence (truth).

(FB 1548902467 Timestamp) —“Searching for a fancier refutation, but I’ll just cop out and say you’re just too Anglo in your thinking.”— Thank you for the compliment. Not that it affects the argument. 😉 Evidence of all language is that it competes in markets and as such was only slightly weakened by (a)the standardization of spelling during printing, and (b)the development of science as universal language of truth. It is true that we are often limited in ‘meaning’ to methods of reasoning, calculation, and computation by the grammar and vocabulary available to use, but that free association prevails regardless. Language markets continue unabated.

(FB 1548880573 Timestamp) Only four reasons for Microsoft computers: (a) writing code on visual studio (I just puked a little in my mouth) (b) being the prisoner of an IT department that wrote code in visual studio. (gagging…. ) (c) extremely large complex spreadsheets on Excel. (Why apple doesn’t go after that market is beyond me.) (d) gaming (yes, ok, I”ll admit that you can’t really game on apple – but I wouldn’t use a laptop for gaming….) I don’t game. No time. I have you guys to play with instead. lol

This time of year, ninety days without continuous data, power, cash is unsurvivable for many tens of millions. The fourth meal is all it takes. Bring about demand for the fourth meal.
