Conserving traditional values and markets through force has nothing to do with liberty. Are you dense?

I speak for every conservative out there when I say that I am truly sorry for conserving and then forcing freedom on you. We will gladly rectify this problem by sending you a one way ticket to your choice of North Korea, Venezuela or China.

Military and police glorification, imperialism and bigoted social conservatism are not “freedom”. Why don’t you send me to the Zapatistas in Chiapas where they practice libertarian socialism.

You're a Libertarian??????

Then why on earth do you think that America is "imperialist?" Most libertarians I know of are usually smarter than to fall into that global Communist trap of calling the free world "Imperialists." Well.... then again you guys choose Gary Johnson in the 2016 primaries over Austin Peterson. That was a pretty stupid thing to do especially after Johnson said that he was about 73% the same as Bernie Sanders. I didn't pay any attention to the libertarians in 2020 after that.

What is so amazingly shocking is that it is the global Communists who are the most imperialist group ever. They want one global empire to rule the world.

Libertarian socialism is very hard to make work. I am not trying to discourage you but history is littered with failed communes. The Jews have done well with their kibbutzes but that is about it. I don't know anything about the Zapatistas. Are they fans of Frank Zappa? Just kidding.

I also do not understand this obsession with trashing the military and the police. It is the politicians who get us into wars were we have no business. The only reason for war is defending liberty and nothing else. And for that you need to have the biggest and baddest military on the planet so that you don't have to defend your liberty.

And the police??? I do not buy into this police state nonsense. The police never bother me. What we are turning into is Marxist state. Like the military, that has to do with our politicians, not the cops or the military. In fact most cops abhor Communism, Fascism, Nazism and any other form of Socialism. They and the military may actually be our last line of defense against the Marxist infestation of our country.

I know some libertarians like to believe that we are in a police state but I have never been hassled by the cops, nor do I hassle the cops. Typically the only people that get hassled by the cops are people who were hassling the cops first.

They have a very tough life and they never know if you are reaching for a firearm or your wallet and they have to make a split second decision to either draw their weapon and fire or not. If a mistake is made someone gets shot, either the cop or the innocent person reaching for their wallet. So their split second decision must be flawless.

Literally everything you said is wrong dude lmao.

First off, I’m not a “Libertarian” in the American sense. I’m an anarcho-communist.

The U.S. has been at war for almost it’s entire existence. Embarrassing that you think it’s actually for freedom. Wilson himself admitted our entrance into WWI was solely for profits. This country was built through imperialism and colonization, through violent genocide against the native Americans and enslavement of Africans. Imperialism is always to exploit the underdeveloped and backwards nations to squeeze out profits.

Are you aware that American police outright murder more than 1,100 Americans every year? And shoot even more than that nonfatally, while the police in England and Wales can go years without even shooting and killing just 10 people. The police make 10 million arrests every year, and a quarter of the population have an involuntary interaction with police every year. It’s conservatives that believe police need even more power, they want militarization of local police. How that equates to freedom I have no clue.

Fascism is not a form of socialism. All socialists are universally anti-fascist. Fascists fought and executed socialists and anarchists, in Germany and in Spain and in Chile and so on.

There is more than just the Zapatistas. There is an autonomous libertarian zone in Kurdistan, Rojava. Historically you can look to the accomplishments of the anarchosyndicalist CNT in Spain and the Makhnovists in the free Ukraine.

The U.S. is not and never will be Marxist. You really believe the CIA would allow that? You are pretty naive. You really need to read a book that isn’t by a faux conservative “intellectual” backed and funded by a corporate right-wing think tank.

Right. Well I can only go by what you tell me. When you said libertarian socialist I just figured that you were pro autonomous communes. You clarified that by saying your an Anarcho-Communist.

I am under no illusion that living under a government offers total freedom. Even the government the founding fathers left for us was not total freedom. However, this nation was much more free then any previous government before or since, including what the US government is now. However, I would welcome what the founding fathers gave us over what we have become.

Wilson, FDR and LBJ were some of the worst presidents we have ever had and getting us involved in war was not the only thing that made them awful.

I have no doubt that that many innocent Americans are killed by police officers but you need to consider each case before you make a lump assumption that the police were out on a shooting spree.

I know what Fascism is. It was the brain child of Benito Mussolini and an associate (whose name I forget). Mussolini was a Socialist. His goal was to make what he thought were improvements to Socialism and for that the Socialists in Italy murdered him. Stalin called him a right winger. But the changes that Mussolini made were virtually insignificant. It was still all about no private ownership and the government controlling the means of production. It is still every bit the slavery that Socialism, Nazism and Communism are.

No, the United States won't be Marxist. It will be the globalists who turn the world Marxist. If the United States is still around it will be in name only. The UN and World Economic Forum with their agenda 21 and 2030 and the Great Reset. That is when they collapse the global economy and force global Socialism on us.

The reason why I say history is littered with failed communes is because when you share all things in common eventually human nature causes one or more to hold back and claim possessions for themselves. That is when the fights began and the whole thing falls apart. I have no doubt that some have succeeded.

I have no problem with anarchists unless you are talking about social anarchists. Social anarchists (i.e. Antifa) exist to tear down existing governments only to build back an authoritarian Marxist regime. If that is what you are advocating then your claim to be free is meaningless.

What you need to understand is that if there was no Rush Limbaugh there would be no AM radio today. That means all of those conservative, liberal and non-political talk shows on AM radio right now owe their very jobs to Rush. AM radio was on its way out and would have most like been shut down by now.

Rush Limbaugh revived it by being such a positive force on the radio. He gave conservatives a voice that is completely absent in all other media forms. And now social media is even silencing conservatives.

Who knows what happens to AM radio now. No one can take his place. In addition with the control freak Democrats in power they very likely will shut down talk radio, that or they will bring back the "fairness" doctrine. The fairness doctrine stated that if someone on a public air wave expressed a political view then their had to be alternate voices. And how that typically worked out is a liberal talk show host (lets say his name was Phil Donahue) would have a conservative guest on his show. Donahue would then invite 3 to 5 other liberals and the all shouted down the conservative. That was the fairness doctrine.
