There's absolutely no other motive outcome that antifa, dsa, progressives, and social anarchist are concerned with other than empowering the full nature of the EU, UN, Nato, and as little states rights in america as possible.
They would have pushed the Osha mandate on you, and they will do it again if they have the chance. They will never decentralize or nullify or reduce the scope of the federal government.
You cannot have liberty or libertarianism with this outcome, it absolutely must involve some sort of balkanization and federalism, it's just not going to turn out well if you let Christian authoritarians define it.
You basically can't have figurative modern democracy without hardcore statism. Social anarchism in particular is a copout to let actual state socialist in to do statist shit. I've spoken to enough of these radical socialist telling me how they're going to hunt the crypto bros
and turn off the electricity to miners, and ban and spy on and control crypto. I think the outcome is going to be quite clear. You'll be building Portlandiastan in Oregon, because that's the only place you'll be allowed to do it.
These hegemonic fantasies they have are truly stupid and violent. No one obsessed with regulating crypto has any interest in liberty or libertarianism, they are quite literally furious that there isn't an off button on a form of capitalism they hate.
(a baseless accusation by the way, since there's no one preventing you from building anti-capitalist reformed market mechanisms on crypto platforms). The Mises Caucus's obsession with poorly thought out secession is not a viable choice. But the Left in america's obsession with
holding on to this exact system isn't going to work either. I'm strongly in favor at this point of cantonizing the united states like switzerland into about 200 states using plebiscites and article V conventions. It needs to happen.
My positions are the most consistent with Spooner and Bestiat and general classical liberal theory. The modern left is just playing jedi mind tricks and deflecting from how much federal power they want. I can tell you unequivocally after ten years of speaking to left libertarian
and right libertarian, they do not understand classical liberalism and it's implied points in minarchism. The left, progressive specifically, antifa in lesser, know what they're doing and don't want classical liberalism. That's something to remember,
they want to rule over you and take your classical liberal system from you.
antifa believes in an abolitionist religion, and it is meant to be imposed globally on all people, like any fundamentalist religion. @threadreaderapp unroll

I'm essentially outlining the political landscapes attitude towards the concept of states right and secession. I'm commenting on the flaws in Mises Caucus's perception of states rights, and the flaws in the people who criticize the Mises Caucus, and how actual modern
I will further add, since the thread isn't very long, my point here is that free market progressive entryist and Ne0liberal entryist into the libertarian party effectively parrot the exact same positions as antifa and progressives and social anarchist in most cases. Because
Lincoln was a tyrant. The South were tyrants. Reconstructionism was really politically catastrophic from a precedent standpoint for statism, and then afterwards the Jim Crow era was even more catastrophic, i.e, the worst of both worlds was the outcome.
Progressive abolitionism is incompatible with Libertarianism because it is abolitionism for the purpose of securing an empire and cultural monolith state and collective will & rights, i.e, a particular legacy of a particular democracy, rather than abolitionism for the
immutable rights of individuals and Plebiscites and small localities.
The legacy of american liberalism is one for Imperialism and a strong powerful federal government, not liberty for the individual. Because this is the a priori belief system of liberals, every
There's just no way doctrinaire political classical social anarchist are ever gonna have bottom unity with post 1960 ancap centric stuff (which is mostly what I am). This is still stark in contrast to individualist anarchism. I do not believe the modern
modern anarchist movement is truly a home for classical individualist anarchist. I truly do not think a stirnerite, Tuckerite, or Spoonerite can be at home among antifa, blac bloc. They have other aspirations which lead to surveillance.
It is their religious, zealous, abolitionist, and utopian commitment to 'erasing conservatism', goblal and total thought control, that leads to their antagonist relationship with Big Tech and Dsa, and subsequently undermines gun rights, and moderates who would protest Christians
Honestly just letting the Libertarian Party be fully narrative constructed by NeoConfederates instead of someone like Balajis isn't just dumb, it is unimaginative. It's self defeating. If you want absolute christian authoritarianism, why not join the GOP.
I guess that's the direction the post-libertarian have gone, but at least they have. But the idea of Christian secession offers nothing to the greater peace and greater balkanization away from this hell system, no pressure release valve, no coherent ideal.
None of these metropolitan areas in the midwest or south or texas will join a christian secession movement, there won't just be war against Texas, there will be war within Texas, civil war within civil war. Peaceful article V conventions led by real libertarianism are wiser.
The Neoconfederate libertarians don't go far enough, Balajis balkanization is the appropriate amount. You have to break things up so small that the deep christian authoritarian no longer have monopoly in large rural area. Metropolitan are destined to be moderate city state.
The current existing 50 state system is a hellworld nightmare of corporate nepotism and Caligula antics. Of course a radical reconstruction of the US federalism, isn't what the Robert Maxwell BlackRock crowd want. But, well East Germany ended. This too will end.
Sometimes I wonder how they thought would end. Solomon de Rothschild admitted in his personal memoir he knew the Civil War would happen regardless, and they benefit from war (of course). We're not nuking each other. The federalism will happen, and they'll still rent seek.
Neoliberal Yuppie DHS list Big tech supporting democrat entryist don't deserve a platform
I guess it's fair to argue that the Mises Caucus doesn't either, right. So none of these people deserve a platform. The logical conclusion of "No Platform" isn't shocking, politicians suck and the only good platform is no platform.
But if one of those platforms is active dedicated to deradicalization and capture by institutional policies, that is noteworthy.
Dave Smith and The Mises Caucus are far from perfect, but can at least be used by people much more radical as a means to and ends to push
