rootless elites with massive influence

it makes sense to me to break these down a bit, or to curtail them so they serve the common good

I'm open to any good arguments for breaking up legitimate monopolies of course, as that is not somethign any free-marketer would want

it's not just about monopoly, but about degree of influence on society

monopoly or no monopoly, a private enterprise of this scale will result in a concentration of actual power in a small number of entities

unless we start committing to say

burning them at the stake if they are out of line

actually it's still conflict

the MPC guy is pretty good on this

though I don't accept his attribution of some issues with modern society to scale alone

I think we're into a bit nebulous terrritory when we talking about influence on society and how that could (or should) be controlled. My biggest issue is that any power you grant the state can ultimately used against you once you are infiltrated and subverted by ideologues (particularly ones from the left)

I will give that a read though and keep an open mind

this is problematic

the above would be linked to a real reassessment of the state and its purposes, as one of the biggest manifestations of massive upscaling is mandarin modern government

PLEASUREMAN astutely identifies the mandarin, the bureaucrats, the managerial class as the source of later problems

right now, we can see a conflict play out where their power is evident

"Deep state" (bureaucrats) vs. Trump

I like to think I'm a pragmatically mindly libertarian at least...lol

I'm fine with govt securing land via force, particularly natural landscapes we deem to have important beyond what those evil capitalists might have in mind

borders obviously need to be secured

You could very well imagine cases that a private company begins to rival the state's interests and force would need to be applied

I am feeling altright over yarfy's stuff atm

my only good alternative to it is yarfy's stuff and suddenly he is pro antifa

and I hate them with the fire of 1,000 suns, so obviously that isn't gonna work

and thus altright is suddenly more appealing

hang on

what

yarfy is pro antifa?

get out

how does that work out @Deleted User 57835c2c ?

Antifa seem to represent pure violent dalitry

he likes that they attacked trump supporters

I don't even want to use his terms at the moment, need to clear my head

antifa are the people in europe that will circle up around a random dude and start interrogating him

"What have you done to fight racism?"

and if his answer isn't "I was the first person in my whole town to sign up to house refugee muslims and I host 5 of them and let them gangbang my wife while I watch tolerantly," they physically attack him

the one and only teacher plx
