You Are an Anarchist. The Question Is How Often?

StrayLite — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 22:45:11 +0000

Classical liberals have long debated whether they should support a minimal state or no state at all. Unfortunately that debate is usually framed as an all-or-nothing proposition. Either you believe that “a minimal state is everywhere and always necessary” or that a “state everywhere and always does more harm than good.” This polarization is a mistake. Everyone, at least sometimes, is an anarchist.

"Violence is the Soul of Government"

Wormwrath — Fri, 22 Feb 2013 06:29:44 +0000

The use of aggression to compel obedience is the essence of the modern state. If an individual may not use aggressive violence against his neighbor, then neither can he delegate the right to such violence to another.

Exploring Anarchy

For the ancient Chinese masters, political awakening was complementary to spiritual awakening. In the martial arts, they saw more than a tool for war, that ultimate form of political conflict — they also saw a vehicle for reaching a superior state of consciousness, of connection with the cosmos that would spontaneously mold a virtuous character for the warrior. They called it the state of “effortless action” (wu wei), and was considered to be indispensable for reaching sociopolitical harmony, peace and prosperity among peoples.

Survivalist "Citadel" project starts in Idaho

phonon — Wed, 05 Dec 2012 20:08:03 +0000

The purpose of the Citadel is survival. Staying alive. Making it through an expected period of social/economic/political collapse. Coming out the other side with a civil society intact. One thing we would all ask af anyone coming here is to remember why we are considering such a venture: Rightful Liberty. We want to live with neighbors who live and let live. We want to live with neighbors who will allow us to be us, without running to the Nanny State.

Statists of all stripes should read this prior to arguing against anarcho-capitalism, agorism and voluntaryism.

Why every Catholic must reject government aggression.

Wormwrath — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 04:05:49 +0000

Trailer for "Free is Beautiful: Why Catholics should be libertarian," a new book, by Randy England, based on the non-aggression principle and using the scriptures, the saints and the Catechism to show why Catholicism is essentially libertarian. Proves that Christianity is meaningless without liberty; and that the initiation of force renders any government illegitimate.

The Trouble With Socialist Anarchism

The Trouble With Socialist Anarchism

The new movie "V for Vendetta" has provoked public discussion of the meaning of anarchism. Murray Rothbard was an advocate of the stateless society, but he was never accepted by the anarchist movement and is still considered more a "capitalist lackey" than anarchist thinker. Indeed, anarcho-capitalism has always been considered an oxymoron by the self-proclaimed "true" anarchists.

The Lucifer Effect: Ron Paul and the Stanford Prison Experiment

MuslimNonarchist — Sat, 14 Apr 2012 16:35:34 +0000

The Lucifer Effect by Philip Zimbardo is an in depth study of mankind’s capacity for evil, beginning with the first complete treatise on the Stanford Prison Experiment ever published, and ending with the atrocities committed by US soldiers in Abu Ghraib. But as I was reading, I kept thinking of Ron Paul and the ongoing controversy between the libertarians and anarchists as to whether supporting his campaign is the right thing to do. I think this book has settled the issue for me.

maulotaur — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 00:37:36 +0000

Slab City...is a squatters' camp deep in the badlands of California's poorest county, where the road ends and the sun reigns. These days, their numbers are growing thanks to a modest influx of recession refugees...attracted by do-it-yourself, rent-free living beyond the reach of electricity, running water and the law. Last Free Place in America" lives up to its nickname.

Ye Olde Rebel of the Week: Lysander Spooner

MuslimNonarchist — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 22:22:19 +0000

Today happens to be the birthday of one of my all time favorite rebels. So, I thought I’d take us back in time and declare Lysander Spooner the rebel of this week in 1808.

Lysander Spooner was a nineteenth century American political philosopher, pamphleteer, entrepreneur, abolitionist and individualist anarchist. Spooner advocated what he called the “Science of Justice” which held that the initiation of coercion against an individual or their property was a natural crime, but so-called crimes that violated man-made statutes but had no victim were no crime at all.

The Only Way “Occupy Wall St.” Could Succeed

awagele — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 03:49:42 +0000

The protesters have not realized that all of the issues they want to address are only symptoms of a deeper problem. The singular objective should be the abolition of the state.
