libertarianism is backdoor communism. it is a middle step to prepare people for breadlines mass genocide
Justin Hernandez
As someone who wants to embrace libertarianism fully but still has a few lingering doubts, how do you keep corporations from becoming the state-analogues that we would fight against in the first place?
Luis Edwards
i bet your argument for that claim has somthing to do with "no stong leader = degeneracy = somthing jewish" am i right?
Jeremiah Morris
Youre thinking of socialism champ.
Asher Hernandez
Without strong influence from the state (such as subsidization that creates monopolies) there is nothing stopping a smaller company from out competing and checking the larger "state like" company.
Ruthless compitition is the cure for monopolies
Jace Powell
>The fundamental goal of socialism from the view of Marx and Engels was the realization of human freedom and individual autonomy. Specifically, this refers to freedom from the alienation imposed upon individuals in the form of coercive social relationships as well as material scarcity, whereby the individual is compelled to engage in activities merely to survive (to reproduce his or herself). The aim of socialism is to provide an environment whereby individuals are free to express their genuine interests, creative freedom, and desires unhindered by forms of social control that force individuals to work for a class of owners who expropriate and live off the surplus product. liberalism is word for word the system of government marx described to convert a capitalism society to a socialist one, and eventually a communist one. You can replace all instances of socialism and liberalism, and it would be no different.
Joseph Wood
Though I have doubts that monopolies are impossible without regulation, why would monopolies even be necessary for large businesses to mimic a state?
Imagine a scenario where five or six successful businesses create a joint venture to provide everything a community would need for living, and then incentivized buying from each other company within that community. They enforce terms and agreements rather than laws, under threat of lose of subscription - essentially expulsion from that community. The companies provide a private police force and utilities. This is a state analogue and essentially a closed market since the living costs inside of it can be artificially made to balance with the income available in that area, and dependent on the subscription's low pricing to make it from paycheck to paycheck.
I think this sort of setup would be more the rule than the exception because businesses are incentivized to create joint ventures to lower their ceiling and create avenues for resources - we see this in America already, just not so totally.
Jacob Martinez
>The fundamental goal of socialism Did you not read that quote? He says Socialism or "Left Libertarianism" leads to communism We disagree with leftists >freedom from the alienation and such we like freedom of association and dissociation which is freedom to alienate those you dont wish to be involved in.
you've got the wrong blokes man. we're not leftists
Jaxson Hill

bump for freedom of association,property and right of physical removal
Xavier King
Ancap would be filled with extreme poverty, a zombie economy of people working long hours, and slums with drugs guns and prostitution
Meanwhile the rich, who are thousands of times richer than everyone else, ride around in limousines with armed guards
Basically Les Miserables, but even worse because of the process of capital accumulation.
Oh yeah and the country ends up being conquered by Hispanic bandits with the help of the starving underclass
Ryan Martin
>you've got the wrong blokes man. we're not leftists It's exactly what you are. Libertarian is lefty both politically and authoritatively. Your desire for human freedom and individual autonomy is in line with communism. You are advocates for commies.
Noah White

Mason Sanders
your idea sounds perfectly feasible and morally acceptable unless these companies force you into the "terms and agreements" Im not sure what your issue is? not shitposting btw are you just saying you don't like the hierachy of it all?

Die Commies.

glad to see libertarians are going mental along with everyone else
Joshua Ross
only if communists are breaking the nap which they always do self defense faggot
William Harris
My issue with this lies in the honeypot of escalating the terms and agreements after the families are dependent on that corporate environment.
And definitely not shitposting, I appreciate the discourse. Right Libertarianism is something I'm very interested in and morally I agree with fully - and while I believe that successful individuals should reap whatever rewards comes with their success, I believe there is room for treading to occur in cases like I outlined above.
The worst part is, I don't necessarily have an alternative to point to, not one I stand by morally. I just want to know what the general "libertarian" response to my question would be.
Jason Diaz
You forgot that communists aren't people and therefore don't have rights.
Luke Davis

>subsidiarity is leftist
St. Thomas Aquinas would bitch slap you for saying that.
Joseph Baker
I share this same worry about an ancap society.
Personally I'm a minarchist. A night watchman state would ensure that all would have access to the same level of protection under a judiciary system, and that residents who find themselves living within a honeypot corporate association would always have the option of suing should the terms of service ever be found to breach the nap
Jaxon Brooks
Why is this your future?
Austin Miller
Bump
Michael Thomas
>collectivism >no property >state imposed morals how ?
Landon Taylor
I'm minarchist as well and apparently ancaps consider me a statist.
Jaxon Bell
Yeah I hear you.
In my opinion a situation where somone tries to incrementially force more authority over others should be responded to with self defence which could become tricky if its not overt control and others don't realize they're being fucked and you don't have the support you need.
i'll admit the power structure is not in favor of the "civilians" at this point. perhaps this situation you created was fucked once the people gave up their respisibility to defend themselves to a corporate power. shame on them (lol)
Liam Brown
well minarchism would be the best solution if no state can't be one,even though there would be taxation,if it's very low (and I'm french so I know how high taxes looks like) I could tolerate it,just deport shitskins
Cameron Campbell
after Drumpf is impeached it is your only future... the pendulum is going to swing further to the left than it ever has before
Wyatt Jenkins
OP where does money come from in an ancap society?
Xavier Lee
I still don't understand why there are people who consider the CSA as authoritarian.
Jace Cook
ha...hahaha...pffft you're funny
Austin Phillips
slaves. you mean production of currency? many ancaps believe in return to the gold standard because its not somthing you can fake, it is also already scarce and has value.

>no moldbug in OP

Owen Green
Fun. And I just got kicked out of my ancom friend group for being "too capitalist." I'm just not radical enough for anyone. I like the idea of a semi-voluntary tax, where you could opt out and relinquish your rights to state-provided protection and services. And right to disassociate would take care of undesirable immigration.

Ye but banks are privately owned? Don't we already know that (((they))) abuse their money power (e.g. lend out the money (((they))) donn't even own).
Mason Walker
Capitalism and Libertarianism will perish with the birth of a Fascist Europe.
Blake Ortiz
>many ancaps believe in return to the gold standard because its not somthing you can fake, it is also already scarce and has value.
The bitcoin meme is also pretty good as just a non-fakeable token of services yet repaid. The proof for why they aren't fakeable isn't easily understandable for laymen, though, and you have to have trust that the original producer didn't embed something tricksy in the blockchain to allow manipulation of it.
That's why bitcoins themselves are more valuable than other *coin alternatives, the blockchain has been around the longest and under the most scrutiny, and we have every reason to believe "Satoshi" made it as a naive proof-of-concept which is what makes it so trustable.

Giving it some thought, I think the takeaway is that any abuses in this sort of situation at least have a mechanism to be undone, while an authoritarian government doesn't give any alternatives.

Gabriel Wilson
Yes, they are and everybody critizising trickle down economics is right, they don't work UNLESS you have a system without a state who artifically controls competition with subsidies. Without government interference the free market would be geniuenly free and the trickling down would actually happen. Trickle down economics in a system run by a state can't work.

Nah lad it goes roughly like this Tribal -> Feudalism -> some type of capitalism -> Socialism-> whatever system we come up that's better No socialism is when the workers seize the means of production what your thinking of is democratic """""socialism""""" which is restricted capitalism and welfare

yes you're right,socialism is when we were retarded tribes were the chief could take hoever food and kill if he wanted there was no means of production ;)

tribes were socialists as fuck read Engels,wait you're supposed to be a commie ?
