See several articles on Independent Political Report. Search the site for "Ryan Ramsey" and "Augustus Invictus". Seven plus articles over the last year.<br /><br />Bigotry always has been an excuse for force and fraud and thus any libertarian should be high skeptical of anyone promoting denigration of members of any group. Now obviously if a group is using political violence and the state to get their way, we can criticize those actions as statist and even mock the actions. It is when you mock them for what they are it becomes a problem. <br /><br />Of course, "Do what I say, not what I do!!", said the author of this post "mocking alt-what boys". Oh, well - girls just want to have fun. All the excuse I can come up with at the moment. :-)CarolMooreReporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01814374256334339684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454812.post-27224761103496997942017-08-18T11:50:43.075-04:002017-08-18T11:50:43.075-04:00As long as racists and bigots sincerely agree not ...As long as racists and bigots sincerely agree not to initiate force or fraud and do not oppose other libertarian principles, please explain why we should not accept them as members of the Libertarian Party.

And the fact that Lincoln didn't even try to outlaw slavery til a couple years into the war. In 1987 I visited Atlanta and the hotel had a book of Civil War newspaper covers. And page after page of headlines included the phrase "Slave states" to mean the confederacy. And they were NOT dissing it. So there's not doubt that in the states most reliant on slave labors that's what they saw it as being about. More northern and less reliant states doubtless stressed the other issues more.<br /><br />As for Brazil, it is amazing that they had slavery til 1888 and 40% of imported African slaves to America went to Brazil. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Brazil<br /><br />Of course today a large portion of the population is black and intermarriage is common. Though I'm sure the elites are more white, than dark skinned. Do they have monuments to wars to keep the insitutuion of slavery in Brazil? I don't think so. <br /><br />In fact they are at least trying to memorialize the evils of slavery and engage in more affirmative actions for blacks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Brazil#Legacy_of_slaveryCarolMooreReporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01814374256334339684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454812.post-25244530971376735902017-08-18T10:55:12.137-04:002017-08-18T10:55:12.137-04:00The Civil War was a repeat of the Nullification Cr...The Civil War was a repeat of the Nullification Crisis, only with secession as the only remaining option. Lincoln was elected on a Red Republican platform in November, to take office march 4. During the intervening 120 or so days, Norrill of Vermont passed another Tariff of Abominations and the colonial agriculturists felt the fist of the Mercantilist Metropolis closing on their windpipes as in 1832. Brazil was also a slaveholding colony and remained that way until the Cleveland Administration, yet no nationalsocialist demonstrations or statue-lynchers are in evidence. Lord Dunmore issued an emancipation proclamation during the revolutionary War, so consistency would require classing Washington, Adams, Ben Franklin et alii as genocidal nationalsocialists for not harking to the clarion call and taking up arms for the King. <br />Right-Wing fanatics, and even moles like Ron and Randal Paul are, like the Germans who elected Hitler, deeply superstitious victims of religious brainwashing and totally unlike the libertarians they superficially mimic.

This symbol like the libersign is the new one. http://www.lpradicalcaucus.org/ It is a tightly held group by 3 self-appointed directors for life. A lot of people who aren't always too radical do follow the FB page and more radical types organize at conventions to keep party from getting too moderate.<br /><br />Seventh image was first version and someone else pointed out that it was confusing. I accidently uploaded it instead of the new one which I have not uploaded instead.<br /><br />third image: probably needs better context. The problem was that two women who were shaming women for having abortions then were showing cleavage to get male attention when they are anti-abortion fanatics. The pink one makes that clear. The other one not as clear - except the all obvious allusion to firm breast. These women are trying to get "in" with pro-choice women to show how sex positive they are so they can try to make them anti-abortion. One admits she tries to get women to talk about their abortions and make them feel bad about it. Pretty sickening. If the introductory text isn't clear on that, will make it so!!<br /><br />Yep, lots of trouble makers out there. Though there are a variety, some more effective than others, some more puppets of others than others (especially among the lefties), etc.<br /><br /> CarolMooreReporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01814374256334339684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454812.post-76661206488642761522017-02-08T02:24:46.025-05:002017-02-08T02:24:46.025-05:00Re: the fourth image

Similar to the Libersign I read about in <i>Radicals for Capitalism</i> by Brian Doherty, but better, in that the arrow points upward instead of up-and-to-the-right. I like.<br /><br />Re: the seventh image<br /><br />My only worry is that those not familiar with libertarianism may see that and assume that it is saying that libertarians <i>are</i> abortion prohibitionists. You and I know it's merely directing itself at <i>just</i> those libertarians <i>who happen to</i> believe that the state should prohibit abortion, but we shouldn't underestimate people's ability to misinterpret.<br /><br />I am reminded of something I read back in 2004. Someone had posted something somewhere about the various alternative-party candidates, including Badnarik and Peroutka, and made the erroneous claim that Badnarik was pro-life and that Peroutka was pro-choice. Obviously, this poster had the two individuals mixed up, but someone else who had read this statement and responded to it did <i>not</i> know about the mix-up, and thus responded by saying that she would, therefore, never vote for Badnarik. Obviously, this second person didn't bother to fact-check the first, and probably to this day assumes libertarians are all in favour of state prohibition of abortion.<br /><br />Re: the third image<br /><br />I am a bit confused. Am I inferring correctly that there are some pro-choice libertarians who have decided to body-shame or slut-shame certain pro-life libertarian women whose only "<i>faux-pas</i>" has been to show cleavage? That's a real shame. One would think that if there were any group that would find body-shaming and slut-shaming utterly disgraceful, it would be libertarians.<br /><br />I am reminded of a thread I saw some years back on Facebook. There were these pictures of people in Wal-Marts who were dressed either sloppily, cheaply, outlandishly, or in some other manner that the culler of these images thought was worthy of ridicule. What disturbed me was the number of alleged libertarians who were laughing along at the various clothing choices of the people in the pictures. <i>My</i> reaction was diametrically opposed to theirs: I thought the pictured individuals' willingness to 'let their freak flags fly' (to borrow a phrase from <i>Weeds</i>) was admirable. One would expect that sort of shaming from conservatives and from "edgy" "liberals," but one would think that self-described "libertarians" would be better, that we would <i>embrace</i> the whole live-and-let-live ideal with vigor and passion. (Perhaps libertarianism as a movement doesn't just need to be re-radicalised politically, but culturally as well.)<br /><br />Re: the second image<br /><br />The world needs more nonviolent troublemakers, especially nonviolent trouble-making women.Alexander Peakhttp://alexpeak.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454812.post-80700887986222969352016-11-10T07:05:10.801-05:002016-11-10T07:05:10.801-05:00BTW, I just started up Expatriotas on Blogger and ...BTW, I just started up Expatriotas on Blogger and have not yet (to my knowledge) enabled comments.

I wanted God's Own Prohibitionists to lose because their superstition causes crashes and depressions. But the equally coercive Econazi superstition would eventually do the same--just not as a big surprise, for blackouts give good warning that Atlas is Shrugging. The LP now has its work cut out for it with a fine crop of law-changing spoiler votes and even some people in office we ought to support while we have the chance.

Read the women-affecting platforms of the Prohibition, Tea and "Constitution" parties and you'll see. Austin Petersen is by my lights an entering wedge for the very religious totalitarianism the Liberal Party was organized to combat in 1930. Four dummy political parties dedicated to having men with guns coerce physicians and women may seem natural in the Ottoman Empire, but not These States. The LP needs to adopt a pro-choice platform to divert these tentacles toward the parties they themselves have emasculated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30454812.post-16956667118462882562016-02-18T17:15:52.167-05:002016-02-18T17:15:52.167-05:00Ha ha.

In fact, the stalker could have been standing on the hill near the house and peeking at my house mate in his skivvies. Oh, yuk!<br /><br />In any case, is this deranged individual inferring that the deceased Vermont Secessionist Thomas Naylor asked Bernie to run for governor as a secessionist? If so, Bernie obviously rejected the offer. After all, Bernie's into controlling the people, not freeing them. So given MY experience with Bernie, I'm quite sure he'd crush all of us individualist/libertarian/free market/freedom lovers who'd tried to secede.

Im sorry but you are simply wrong to talk about a "libertarian metaphysics" Libertarianism qua libertarianism has absolutely nothing to say on metaphysics. As you should know it is a theory that explains the justification and limits on violence. Metaphysics is in the realm of theology, philosophy religion,etc. Those things are will differ from libertarian to libertarian. <br /><br />So in the case of abortion for example there is libertarian view on abortion contrary to your bold assertions. A libertarian is not committed to one view or the other on strictly libertarian grounds. This is because the morality of abortion hinges on the question of the unborn. Is the unborn a person with rights that must be protected or does the unborn have no personhood? Either view will depend on ones personal values and beliefs outside of libertarianism which will inform one of how to see the metaphysics of human nature. I am a Catholic whose beliefs shape how I see the unborn. I see the unborn as a person whose rights are violated by abortion. You appear to be an adherent of a New Age metaphysical worldview and therefore you dont see the unborn the same way. You have the free will right to believe that but you dont have the right to label that as libertarian just as I dont have the right to see my views on the unborn as libertarian. Only after one has decided what the status of the unborn is then does libertarianism come into play. <br /><br />Basically what Im saying is that your metaphysics is the result of your beliefs in the New Age and are not to be confused with libertarianism.
