Rabbi Adam Jacobs wrote “An Open Letter to the Atheist Community,” the title of which is sort of based a misunderstanding. The only thing atheists share is an absence in a belief in something. That is not grounds to be called a community. Atheism tells nothing of what a person actually believes to be [...]
If authority is the willingness and ability to command obedience to one’s will, authoritarianism would be a belief that someone is superior in some manner (ethically, politically, ect.) because he or she has such authority.
Since government, as popularly constructed, is given the sole discretion of interpreting and enforcing the law, even in conflicts between [...]
There is one thing that YouTuber franks2732 got right in his video “Bigotry & Libertarians.” Capitalism, which I take him to mean the exchange of privately owned goods, would not prevent discrimination. For good or bad, people discriminate all the time among various choices, of course. If they are wise, people discriminate between [...]
I published some new posts on the DFW Alliance of the Libertarian Left’s website about some outrageous police brutality in Fort Worth (which Thomas Knapp kindly included in his news digest) and a case of statewide discrimination against same-sex couples.
The lack of accountability is something expected when political interests are granted a legal [...]
Monday’s Fully Informed Jury Association event for the Campaign for Liberty — Tarrant County went beyond expectation. We passed out close to 400 trifolds, had some good conversations and met a total apologist for government aggression and discrimination.
So here is the background. Tom and Rafael joined Katy and me downtown at the Tarrant [...]
The Alliance of the Libertarian Left is an aggregate of Rothbardians, mutualists, voluntaryists, anarchists, agorists, extreme minarchists, and others united in opposition to statism and existing forms of coercive and irrational institutions. The newest group of ALLies has formed here in the Metroplex.
In a sense, ALL is an effort to draw a distinction [...]
I’ve kept this archive of comments and e-mails I’ve written over the years. I’m sure there are more, but these are probably the best ones anyhow. I present these one-sided conversations for your consumption. Many of these were written while I was a minarchist, so the use of “capitalism” was meant to convey free markets, [...]
Who plans whom, who directs and dominates whom, who assigns to other people their station in life, and who is to have his due allotted by others? — Friedrich HayekArchives

Re: People who Piss me off: Free Market Anarchists
Ad hominem attacks aside, YouTuber hawanja’s video on free-market anarchists seems to make the point that people “naturally organize themselves into hierarchies” that require violence to be maintained, so anarchism runs counter to the human condition. It is left unstated why violence is needed or ethically justified to maintain these hierarchies if they were [...]
