  • Yea, its a lot different from the traditional liberal or conservative view. A lot of Christian Voluntaryists or Libertarians have the same sentiments as me. Even a lot of secular Libertarians believe that abortion is murder, but think it should be legal for similar reasons. However, these are mostly the philosophical Libertarians, who take property rights to heart and stuff. The more utilitarian and less philosophical types (the ones who follow the N.A.P, but not as extreme) usually either want it outlawed or allowed. these types of libertarians are more likely to be pro closed-border as opposed to open border (which are the majority of libertarians). Post-libertarians, Neo-reactionaries, and Libertarian-brutalists (these groups are not considered libertarian and really ruin the reputation of the libertarian community, but hold some similar views, and are usually totally secular) are usually pro-choice and pro closed borders. Libertarians are so diverse, its ridiculous. Its partly why we dont grow as quickly or poll too well.

    Tbh, I dont totally understand Neo-reactionaries or post-libertarians, but they seem to be pro Donald Trump. Which is sickening that they call themselves libertarians. I think they are more like neo-feudalists as far as I know. And Liberarian-brutalists basically want to deport all leftists, and some even go as far as to drop leftist politicians out of helicopters. they worship Pinochet, who made the Chilean economy boom because of free-market policies, but killed many political opponents, who were mostly leftist- by dropping them out of helicopters. They say the ends justify the means, but of course this is a logical fallacy, and goes against almost every libertarian belief, which is why I do not consider them libertarian. They are also pro-Trump.

    These groups are only minorities, thankfully. Most libertarians are nice, but some purists can sound like dickheads (even tho they dont mean to lol). From my observations, females and teens are generally paleoconservative (as well as a lot of tea-party adults) while the well-read in literature and philosophy are usually Voluntaryists. Minarchists are just inconsistent, and usually start to fall under the Voluntaryist category slowly.

    I have probably just bored you to death and not make any sense at all haha.

    What else should we talk about? Something fun? like.... cats?
    The two are similar. Eminent domain is taking the land, but compensating the value of the land monetarily later, rather than buying first, then taking. While this is benefiting the rich, at least your country isn't inflating your currency intentionally to buy assets and such.

    Im 100% against abortion because, according to my "donut theory" as I call it, it is the initiation of force on a peaceful individual. However, I do not believe the government should be in the middle of abortion because 1) no one else should be paying for it but the mother or father 2) I believe outlawing abortion would only lead to more abortions that are less safe for the mother. As a Voluntaryist, there would be no government to regulate abortion clinics, but I believe innovations can be made to appeal to both sides (because of popular demand)- the babies could be raised outside of the womb, so the killing of the baby would be unnecessary. And I also think education is a better way to solve the issue instead of force.
    I made a new rp called I Am since Camelot isn't going anywhere and I didn't want to make a map for an rp.
    I mean, I guess I could make the whole getting new demons a behind the scenes thing. Same with skills x.x I dunno, I need to figure something out.
    Well, a thing that requires most of the management is the demon auction and demon fusion. I mean, that's a major part of shin megami tensei games. But I guess people could form contracts with demons of their choice from the get go. That would kinda make some people op :/ And then there's the skill learning & whatnot. It's all more complicated than I initially thought.
    No problem. I started to get bored, I figured other people were getting bored, so I just decided to start killing people. Nbd. I got this.
    The thing is... devil survivor 2 needs quite the work and research done to it. It would follow the plot of the game but there's a whole lot of micro-management to be done. The Pokemon one however... my issue is the plot to be fair. What IS the motive of the revival of team rocket? I mean, the players' goal would be to prove themselves to the boss much like the team rocket trio tries in the anime (except, without as much failure) but yeah xD
    Devil Survivor 2 and a Johto Journey as members of a reborn Team Rocket >_> some odd years after the events of G/S/C/HG/SS
    You sir, have been sorely missed </3
    ;) Glad to see you're back GP
    -shakes head-
    No problem. I see you as a real friend, so yeah that was why I'm concerned. (:
    See you around UG alright, Piepie? ;)
    I'd also like to remind you about your current due: 7 pies
    -hugs tightly-
    I was thinking about you last night. No, not that way I swear.
    I was hella worried, as I haven't seen you leaving temporarily just like this. I'm so glad you're back with us! Bless you. :D
    Holy crap! Thats terrible!

    That is terrible! Its evil when the government privileges the upper class. My strategy would be to create stock companies of the government land based on usage not class! That way the poor can benefit too and there is limited privilege. Are they using eminent domain, or actually buying the land? What is the law where you live in regards to that?

    Ill just write the essay and have you read it. I never mentioned one piece of evidence when we discussed it, so ill make sure to fix my earlier mistakes (literally by not saying this, my argument is 10x weaker, so i apologize). And there is one counter argument I can't get past (mostly due to lack of knowledge than a faulty argument). this essay shouldn't be very long because its pretty simple actually.

    My ethics class is starting to discuss abortion. oh boy. I have a weird opinion on it, but tbh, we probably agree almost exactly (on legality anyways)- just for different reasons.
    Thanks, I figured your intentions were good. :) I don't think anyone was offended, I just think we need to set the bar in terms of what language gets used in these conversations, as it winds up playing a role in these types of debates.
    I mean, its cheap labor. supply and demand, ya know?

    I was just kidding. I was trying to make fun of myself by calling myself a loser. I meant nerd, whatever. xD

    Dang! the hospital?! At least you are improving. I hope you get better!

    The one thing I like about Bernie is that he is truthful and is actually legitimate, unlike Hillary. However, I disagree on most things with him.

    Privatization isn't meant for government to get money. Am I misunderstanding what you are saying? What is this about economic collapse? Of course this would occur if you abolished government in a day. It would be actually anarchy- as in violence.

    The government doesnt need money if it wont exist lol. Im an anarchist haha! The strategy for Voluntaryism is actually peace, activism, localization, and agorism. Localization is slowly restoring power to local communities until everything is privatized. VERY slowly. People need time to adjust, and if suddenly police went away, crime would increase. You get the idea.

    Liberty isn't about abolishing government or privatization. it is about creating a voluntary society free of violence and coercion (of course that isn't possible, which is why there would be a demand for security firms). I have no problem if people want to set up governments or communes- as long as they dont force people to join. And the current government is a gang of people using violence and coercion to get tax dollars. Its decided. Im writing my next essay on why taxation is theft, and how democracy does not justify it. xD
