Al Freeman

The hardest lesson in history:

@DEMEMZEA @LPNH It very much is. Such comments glow brighter than sun.

@AlbertonFreeman @LPNH The killing of most politicians is not a violation of the NAP due to them having comitted agression.

If killing Trump would somehow result in a libertarian country it would obviously be morally legitimate. All attempts to kill Trump have been to make America more left-wing and communist, thus are bad.

You have to show immediate threat or peril to claim self-defense. It's not vague. It's physical and immediate. And it better hold up to a jury of your peers. Everyone alive today was born into this system of taxation. Nobody is personally responsible for it. The commies always framed their actions as self-defense and delivering justice. And truly believed that their cause was so righteous it justified all the evil they did.

@AlbertonFreeman @LPNH Self defense is not a violation of NAP

@tobjectpascal @dweinberger66 @jackunheard I don't believe in simulation theory. And it doesn't explain how anything came to be. Something had to build the simulation, so the question of how the creators came to exist remains unanswered. It seems its turtles all the way down.

@AlbertonFreeman @dweinberger66 @jackunheard The physics behind the univere, if you got all the math correct, then you have your answer as to how you exist right? Is that not the point of a simulation?

Genuinely how do atheists exist? Just look around you bro.

@ThoughtCrimes80 Its a very small percentage of people. It seems like way more than it is because they get amplified on the internet. Its still millions of people but there 350 plus million of normal people and most aren't even paying attention to politics.

I’m absolutely struggling with “love thy neighbor” right now. How do you make peace with people who want you and everyone like you dead?

Worker control over the means of production is their definition. Which in practice is government control over everything. That's where it falls apart. 100% failure rate. Hit them on their own history, thats the hard truth they can't flush down the memory hole. The dead demand we remember.

“dEfiNe sOciAlisM” 🥴

@tobjectpascal @dweinberger66 @jackunheard Then how did they come into existence? That's still not answering the question. And I wouldn't trust them to tell us the truth about anything.

@dweinberger66 @jackunheard What you gonna do if you find out aliens created our universe in order to understand their own existence?

@dweinberger66 @jackunheard Same for unicorns. There are trillions of planets. Surely on one of them, such a creature exists.

@jackunheard I’m Agnostic. No one can prove God exists, or doesn’t.

@Stefano_Cellino @jackunheard That's not answering anything. Its just kicking the can down the road to how did God come to exist? And the unsatisfying answer is he has always existed. Okay, so the most complex thing in the Universe existed before the most simple things in the universe?

@jackunheard Some people want proof I guess. There has to be a god someone had to make this

@jackunheard They lack faith. I.e. belief without proof. Same way you don't believe in Zeus or Odin.

@MattWalshBlog Its better than them thinking its real and celebrating assassinations.

Retards starting tweeting that the assassination attempt was "staged" 10 seconds after it happened. No evidence for that claim. No reason to make it. Nothing at all. Just a narrative constructed out of whole cloth. They have the guy in custody, alive. And yet they'll still say this was somehow a hoax. You have to understand that, for a lot of people in this country, the truth just doesn't matter. It makes no difference to them. The truth is whatever they want it to be. These are the same people who spent years claiming that men can give birth the babies. They're living in fantasyland. They cannot differentiate between the things they wish are real and the things that are actually real. They don't recognize the distinction between these categories. They're toddlers in adult bodies. Their brains and souls are malformed. There's no saving them.

@Tekeee Jeez, has it really gotten this bad. I've been reading books since childhood for the fun of it. Only a good book can pull you in and make you totally forget the outside world. Its why the book is always better than the movie.

If I paid you $2,000 every single week and all you had to do was read a book for 4 hours a day, would you take it?

You live in a world with more abundance than our ancestors could ever imagine. The average poor person has a higher standard of living than all the Kings of old. Capitalism is the best thing that ever happened to the poor. We'd all still be peasants shoveling pig shit on a tiny plot of land we did not own otherwise.

There are grown adults who really believe that capitalism can adhere to a “non aggression principle.” The same system that has brought us noting but imperial plunder & mass death. Libertarians & Austrians live in a fantasy land where they ignore everything capitalism actually does.

We have a long way to go to limit government considering how huge it is today. But we can't abolish it overnight as people would just build a new one. And historically, one worst than before. The government has to be phased out through obsolescence, if possible. Its not for us, but generations yet born. Because bad actors are incentivized to seek power and expand it. Invariably so.

Abolishing the state doesn’t create utopia. It removes the only institution that’s supposed to restrain force. Without it, bad actors don’t disappear, they just stop pretending to follow rules. The goal isn’t no power. It’s limiting power so no one can use it without consequence.

Nope. Make a proper state.

@Geiger_Capital They fell down the rabbit hole. It's easy to do reading conspiracies, but that's the danger without strong critical thinking skills.

The amount of people who think everything is "staged" is truly insane… Yes. Trump convinced a 31-year-old Kamala donor to charge the Secret Service with multiple firearms and go to prison for life so he could… still be unpopular and build a ballroom that’s already being built.

I bet even Ming believes that, if more supply of a good is offered for sale, its price will likely fall (Astrology of supply-&-demand), or that, if the number of workers in a factory keeps increasing, output per worker will eventually decline: Astrology of diminishing returns!

@theficouple New homes need to be built to counteract this. Supply is too low for demand. Government regulations, local, state, and federal regulations keep the supply artificially restricted.

Baby boomers aren't selling their homes & why would they? They paid $90,000 for a home 25+ years ago, owe $0 & have $550k+ of equity. "Downsizing" means they'd need to buy something for $450k + take on a 6% loan. Many won't move & this will keep inventory low.

@Flag_2_Freedom @ThatEricAlper Human reason over millennia. It's ultimately about the survival of the species. There are rules necessary for civilization to exist vs barbarianism. This is not in opposition to Christianity, but hand in hand with it.

@ThatEricAlper Question for Athiest. (NOT an argument) In your view... where and how did the concept of good and evil come about and how did it become a universal concept.
