Is Beehaw even really in the fediverse when you don’t federate with almost anyone?

lol, your wannabe sunk as soon as it became apparent Reddit wasn’t going anywhere.

I’ve read more about USSR than I’d want to remember

Your posts on here just make me wonder what you’ve actually read. Quantity doesn’t make up for quality. I could read lots of texts about Nazi Germany from David Irving too.

I-I-I don’t actually even care about winning an argument with these damn tankies. That’s why I’m spending several hours of my day arguing with them on Hexbear.

They do contradict each other if your initial argument was “My statement was a joke” and you answered that question with a serious reply.

Unless…did you mean that the only thing that was a joke in your statement was equating copyright with the age of consent, and you’re in fact totally fine with libertarians being “split on the issue of the age of consent”? Because holy shit.

Muh civility! Mods? MOOODDS!?

It’s quite poetic that you pulled this card after being proven wrong

Seriously what are you even talking about now?

“The billionaires can be punished for doing bad things.”

“I dunno, sounds pretty good to me.”

“But this means the party were the real billionaires all along ( ?)”

I have to say it was well done of @Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net to give you the rope to hang yourself with by asking that question. Previously, you tried to say the question was a joke to begin with, but now, instead of saying something like “It wasn’t a serious question, of course I don’t think there are two positions to take regarding the age of consent”, you post a diatribe where you do say there are two equally valid positions regarding the age of consent.

Holy shit, you tried to play it off as a joke earlier and now you’re just saying that there’s an actual argument against the age of consent.

Real libertarianism has never been tried.

Their properties and power can be taken away any time. They can receive orders and they will follow them.

Good.

Freedom of speech? You can get arrested for insulting an officer in the us. You can get arrested for demonstrating. You can get hauled off to black sites. You can get disappeared in unmarked vans, as we saw frequently during the summer of 2020.

Let’s add McCarthyism to that list and point out that there’s still technically a law that forbids communist parties in the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Control_Act_of_1954

“Age of consent and copyright are two issues on which libertarians are split” doesn’t come across as a joke without an “/s” because it’s functionally identical to an argument a libertarian would unironically make. If that doesn’t tell you it’s a thoroughly unserious ideology, I don’t know what would.

Freedom of speech? You mean like the Western kind of that coddles Nazis instead of throwing them in a pit?

Totalitarian dictatorships? You mean like Chiang Kai-shek’s Taiwan, the military dictatorships of South Korea, Argentina or Brazil, Pinochet’s Chile, fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and Francoist Spain?

So now you’re trying to play off your characterization of child abuse as an “issue” over which people can be “split” as a joke

age of consent and copyright are two issues on which libertarians are split

Libertarianism is a joke because it’s never cleared the low bar of it existing in a meaningful capacity in the real world. You can say whatever about gorillion dead 1984 Animal Farm and whatever tired cliches, at least there have been and continue to be ML states in the real world. The most libertarians have ever managed was one American town before they were overrun by bears.

What you said is meaningless. Japan isn’t just unapologetic, they’re actively denying that they committed war crimes. They’re also governed by fascists who actively want to build the military back up, so “peaceful and harmless” for now maybe.

How do you feel about the age of consent?

Libertarian reforms are supposed to be unpopular among people who lose from them, which would be everyone getting more than giving from taxation.

Libertarian uses fascist argument

unapologetic, but peaceful and harmless Japan

History of fascist apologism I see
