Often times when discussing ideas with American liberals, we can agree upon many aspects of public policy. Usually a bit of coaxing on the drug war will get them to relinquish their beliefs in drug prohibition, and you can almost always expect agreement when painting broad ideological brushstrokes over corporatism and war. Something funny seems to happen when you begin discussing actual solutions to these issues however. Often times, the free market solutions offered by anarcho-capitalists are seen as “corporate shillism”, or apologetics for corporate greed and class warfare. This, of course, could not be further from the truth. Continue reading
Back when I first started considering myself a libertarian, I thought that the green movement and everything surrounding it was a bunch of crap. “Why should I care about the environment?” I asked. “The most important aspect of social interaction is the non-aggression principle; the environment be damned!” At this point in my journey, I believed I had everything figured out–I had been watching a lot of conspiracy documentaries–and I was sure that every leftist concern was actually a plot of the United Nations or a UN related NGO to take away my freedom. I can attribute my naivety to both my age and taking Alex Jones a little too serious. Throughout my journey, I have dropped my fetishism for the Constitution, concluded that the state will not exist someday and accepted that left-libertarianism will create the most just, prosperous and free society. One of the main issues I have run into (and this one is a biggie) is my belief that Lockean property rights are actually unjust and unlibertarian. I do not claim to be a philosopher nor an extremely well read person, but I do want to try and explain myself in the most rational way possible. Continue reading
A recent article at wired.com has shed some light on a little-known internet service which is beginning to gain notoriety. Silk Road is an underground digital black market explicitly embracing the agorist philosophy. Using a digital currency known as Bitcoin, Silk Road is providing a free marketplace where users can buy, among other things, illegal substances. The site does however ban the sale of weapons of mass destruction, assassinations, etc. This limit is supposed to align with the non-aggression principle, banning the sale of “anything who’s purpose is to harm or defraud.” Continue reading
This entry is going to highlight two awesome festivals coming up — one on the East coast and one on the West (sorry for the people in the middle)! Continue reading
The one thing that radicals seem to strike me at agreeing upon is to be as radical as possible sometimes even for the sake of being more radical than their counterparts. I admire the sense of competition within radical ideology whether it is a radical progressive or a radical communist or even a radical voluntaryist, The interesting feature also is that the more radical the person is the more they seem to be uncompromising but equally willing to do whatever it takes to see their viewpoints succeed.
