@Aero Usually, it's those on the right who trust absolutely no one.
There's just been a systematic brainwashing of society to put trust in the state
@Existence is identity In reference to the average Normie, is he wrong?
There's no value judgement attached to that statement
kek
I take it you're another butthurt IBS nerd with an animus for Sargon?
I really don't get the Sargon hate. Anything he says is either shitposting, or really mundane Centrist stuff that everyone should be in agreement with in the first place.
No, I dont mind sargon most of the time
Except I forgot what it was id have to dig it up but he said something really dumb
He even has read Locke
lol
The only thing I can really remember right now is how he calls himself an individualist then proceeds to want government intervention
The social contract argument is fucking stupid as shit
Holocaust wasn't murder, it was suicide, because social contract.

Going back the the social contract and lack of consent video "Taxation Isn't Theft, Because of the Social Contract", do we ask murderers for consent to jail them? Call it a strawman or whatever, but in this frame of mind, let's make a hypothetical situation with some assumptions:
Assumptions:
A government's bare minimum objective is to govern over the people who consented to be governed and defend those people. This requires a police force and a military. Secondary objective in this day in age would probably be to deal with foreign governments as representatives of those people it governs.
Because of this assumption, the government in effect lays claim to the land which it presides over - not in terms of ownership, but in terms of protection from both internal (via Police) and external (via Army) forces. The details of this sort of non-ownership claim would have to be ironed out a bit more, sure, but in effect it means eminent domain can't really be applied.
The Hypothetical:
Let's say there was a society in which we have the above mentioned government policy. Babies are born and therefor cannot give consent to be governed (shoutout to the anti-natalists out there i guess...). Let's add another assumption stating that children under the age of 18 fall under the rule of their parents for the sheer fact that children cannot give informed consent. Due to this, the parents of the child would get in trouble if the child did anything that is worthy of calling the police over.
Once the child turns 18, he or she can either give consent to be governed, or not. If they give consent, then great, things are easy from there. If they do not give consent, if this individual does not own property, they do not have to pay taxes (a 'membership fee' in this hypothetical). If this individual is attacked on the streets by another person who did not consent, police are encouraged to ignore the occurrence and not investigate if it resulted in murder. This person can leave the country with no issue, but as this person wouldn't have any government-approved records, another government would most likely be unwilling to accept them (as they don't know if this individual is a criminal).
Congratulations, you essentially made me create a mafia. How would governments work otherwise in a completely libertarian society?
They wouldn't exist
