Respect for property rights is the truce that civilization is built on. Infringing on property rights undermines that truce and endangers peace and prosperity.

(4) Acknowledging that most people alive today would have gone along with those terrible things. Noisily condemning terrible things now that they are already considered terrible and very unpopular supports rather than refutes this.

Yes we know. They know. They are rubbing it in your face. They want you to realize they have the power to fuck up your life and get away with it.

The transition from personnel departments to Human Resource departments probably marks the time when the state really took over private companies.
@jeremykauffman
Are you implying that a critique of anarcho-capitalism applies to the state more than anarcho-capitalism? It's funny how often that happens.

I use people's judgement of you (Jeffrey Tucker) over the last 2 years as a litmus test. People that put you down had a severe lapse of judgment. Thank you for remaining sane when the world went crazy.

You already broke that pledge whey you endorsed a movement that openly advocated for violence and actively committed violence for political or social goals.
The Libertarian Party stands with
#BlackLivesMatter
in calling for an end to police brutality, an end on qualified immunity, an end to systemic abuses, and an end to the initiation of violence by the state.

I noticed this too. They go into established communities, video games, comics, RPG... and put down the existing culture and impose their own. They are colonizers by their own definition.
Notice the similarities between these maps. Left is an estimate of North America 65 million years ago. Right is the projection of AGW. If humans didn't cause one how can they prevent the other?

Any story kids made up while playing with Star Wars figures in the 80's was likely more authentically Star Wars than The Last Jedi was.

Arguing against CRT plays into the trap.They redefine or rename CRT on a whim as part of the M&B strategy. Instead argue against teaching students that one race or sex is superior, and against segregating students based on race. Force the CRT proponents to defend their racism.
When people are dependent on a system and that system is attacked, they justify that system in their mind, and counter intuitively they justify the system more strongly if they can’t escape it easily. The psychological term is System Justification.

Any company that has too high ESG scores is likely more focused on politics that business, and probably should be jettison from our portfolios.
@jeffreyatucker
It is almost like they didn't hear anything you said. You kept pointing out how the policies they advocate for caused the problem and they didn't acknowledge it at all and talked right past you advocating for more of the policies that caused the problem.

We would have said the same thing about the New Deal, but it is still praised as the cure to the Great Depression rather than the cause. I am afraid the lockdowns will be treated the same.
@ForestedDepth
The people that say DnD is colonialist say things like this, "Colonization is a group coming in and saying our ideas and our culture is superior in some way and we are going to apply it to this place."
That is what they are doing to DnD.
@BobMurphyEcon
They don't care. They are still claiming the New Deal ended the Great Depression rather than extending it. They will claim the lockdowns saved lives no matter what.

Americans have had guns for a long time. The rise in homicides in 2020 coincides exactly with the BLM protests.

They dropped charges against the first shooter Joshua Ziminski. They want to send a strong message that Democrat supporters can come to your community with guns and Burn, Loot, and Murder, but anyone that defends themselves or their community must be punished.

I am pretty sure it's Certificate of Need laws that are causing the capacity problems. They have had more than a year but governments still protect hospital monopolies rather than allow an increase in capacity.

Accusing people of "gatekeeping" in order to justify gatekeeping them is an example of the hierarchy they are trying to establish.

I am pretty sure they want to purge the military of conservatives. With the vaccine so politicized this could be a a policy to do that.

Review the 10 planks of the Communist Manifesto. Most are fully or partly implemented. Socialists have taken so much ground they don't even consider those planks socialist anymore. Yet, demands to repeal any of the planks are are meet with extreme resistance from conservatives.

Technically weak research indicates higher gun prevalence cause higher crime rates, while strong research does not. It must be tentatively concluded that higher gun ownership rates do not cause higher crime rates, including homicide rates.

You seem to be using the term democracy to refer to checks against democracy. Democracy assumes the majority can make absolute decisions for everyone.

Dangerous situations are when you need the right to self defense the most. If criminals can intimate people from going places by creating dangerous situations that creates an incentive to create dangerous situations to provide cover for more crime.

Any step we take closer to a holocaust can't be compared to the original Holocaust because it diminishes the suffering of it's victims. Only when and new holocaust is fully implemented can we begin to compare it to the original Holocaust.

The woke are afraid of the actual data because they agree with the auth-right on superiority and inferiority of races. Your book Taboo does such a great job of using data to dispell both narratives.

We were told things like this all summer:
"...there is a positive, influential aspect if violent protest…"
And,
"Big structural change in America doesn’t happen without violence."
