When I started this Substack I had no real vision for it other than as a place to post if I were de-platformed across Social Media. It has evolved into a location where I can work out thoughts I have about why libertarianism is impotent and my ideas to change that.
Wow what a dirty move! Shit like this is why I started a Libertarian Party in my county in Georgia so we can get Mises caucus delegates in the state party and help vote Angela Mccardle in as the chair of the national Party. If that fails I think we will need to re-access our approach
Wow. Another victory for the Short Bus Caucus. Dumb question: Aren’t they misconstruing the meaning of “bigot” and “bigotry”? Aren’t there TWO characteristics of such people? A libertarian who takes a live and let live position regarding the people who are not part of their preferred tribe or in-group isn’t really “intolerant”, right? They are letting "the other" live in peace.
Further, the Short Bus Caucus types do not understand how libertarianism would work in practice and they do not think that it can work. A group of people on their own property who allegedly loathe “minorities” who live somewhere else but will let them live in peace are no danger to those “minorities”. Historically, the “minorities” might be all slaughtered and their heads stuck on poles.
BIGOT - One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics AND IS INTOLERANT OF THOSE WHO DIFFER. n.
The attitude, state of mind, or behavior characteristic of a bigot; intolerance. n.
BIGOTRY - The character or mode of thought of a bigot; obstinate and unreasonable attachment to a particular creed, opinion, practice, ritual, or party organization; excessive zeal or warmth in favor of a party, sect, or opinion; intolerance of the opinions of others.
There is an old rule, "If you are going to attack the king, make sure you kill him". So the question is will the LPMC claim the throne and act accordingly? Also shows the stupidity of compromise when it comes to power. Hopefully the rest of the states are taking notes and making some hard assessments of established LP members on what you tell them, how you work with them, and how much power you are willing to give them. It appears the latter threshold should be quite small.
