libertarians are just pussies, they love the theory but they never do the step to apply what they preach. They only want a small gov because they do not have balls to go full responsible for their own actions...
Some years ago I did the process of having my "own state", but that doesn't help too much if the vast majority of people are still dumb "libertarians" that still vote for a gov / state.
Yes I can say easily "fuck off" to any gov but that doesn't help me too much in relations with other people. Because those people still go back to the "papa" state and ask for permission to trade with me...
That's exactly what I see in the environments I've had access to since learning about Bitcoin—they're anarchists in their ideas but weak when it comes to doing what's right, libertarians.
Once I saw a meme that the difference between a libertarian and an anarchist is time, but that's not what I see. Many libertarians are closet fascists.
I think those are separate things, but Darth's basically right.
Even the ones who get the ideas right, and genuinely want to see those changes, do next to nothing to actually separate themselves from the state.
This would happen if in this world all anarchists were poor souls needing care, just as civilians are today. If they were truly sovereign anarchists, they would hardly tolerate any kind of monopoly attempt by individuals imposing a grand plan.
After all, what would this legal process be if everyone had their own jurisdiction? Sometimes I see that these approaches don't break free from the flawed system we live in; the biases raise questions that don't even apply.
