@StalinsCoffeHouse-Dude, you are very well informed and eloquent but you seem soo nervous. it made me a little uncomfortable. other than that you were great, very informative. You seem to know what your talking about just try to project some confidence and the presentation would be perfect. anyhow I plan on looking at more of your videos since you seem to be one of few that remains impartial about the topics.
@94ABLE2002 - That's what I thought. Here's a tip for the next time you launch ideological warfare: confronting your opponent outright and promoting YOUR side is MUCH more effective than posing (poorly) as a flip-flopped version of your enemy. Anybody with even half of a functioning brain can see right through it
@94ABLE2002 - Care to enlighten me as to where in my post resides the subliminal message, advocates abortion clinic demolition? I merely satirized the conflicting standpoints of mainstream liberals regarding life. If YOU inject violence into it, then YOU are the CBWO (conservative by word only) extremist terrorist. Oh, and go back to my porch? Imitation is the cheapest form of flattery
Liberalism is a mental disorder and a joke. They would oppose the death penalty for a convicted murderer, and yet support the elective abortion of a baby that has done NOTHING wrong. That's but ONE example of liberal hypocrisy. Character limits keep me from going further. Liberals, please do the world a favor: just go back to your couches and smoke the weed that you bought with your welfare check. Let us mature adults handle advancing humanity and society
@BlackFox0911 Maybe you should go back to your porch and whittle yourself another rocking chair you damned primative. You are the reason that modern conservatism is a parody of itself. (I am a conservative, yet I have no problem acknowledging this point, as the existence of uneducated people like yourself makes this point impossible to avoid, being so obvious.) People like you blow up abortion clinics. You are no better than radical Islamic extemists. Have fun in your self imposed stone age.
@BlackFox0911 No malice, man. But, I feel like this argument could work against your point as well. "conservatives" promote death penalty (killing a person who may have committed heinous crimes, but can still be supposedly reformed), but can't accept abortion (a process in which practitioners generally do when they know that the fetus is not fully formed to be a functioning baby. ie: cannot feel, no higher brain activity, no cognition etc.) I think it's a matter of perspective.
@BlackFox0911 94ABLE2002 is an idiot, I thumbs upped your point. He or she sounds like the liberal "mental disorder" you described. You point out the fallacy of abortion and the libs call you an "primitive"...."blow up abortion clinics" and "no better then islamic extremists".....its just like William F Buckley said(to describe liberals in one sentence)
"Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views"
Interesting, but you are wrong. You did not just give the facts. Your bias is clear.Liberalism today is not the same liberal as classic liberalism. LIberals today are leftist, redistributiist, fascists.
@harrisonconstantinou ya left wing and right wing comes from where Democrats and Republicans sit in the house historically. so a left winger is a democrat. so you can have a liberal Republican or a conservative Democrat. though it is rare.
It is Liberalism that has changed…it’s manifested itself from the Slave-driving, Racist, White Supremacists, KKK members of the Antebellum South (Democrats); to the equally ‘race-consumed;’ anti-white, ‘civil-rights’ activists of the North (Democrats). They haven’t changed their racial-tendencies; they only change which side they favor! Conversviates have been ‘color blind’ since the beginning…we fought the Civil War and the Civil Rights Movement.
@mdstalla You are an brainwashed idiot, learn the meaning of political terms... liberalism is mainstream political ideology found all over the world, your democrats are not its embodiment... ideologies dont follow political parties, parties follow ideologies... so your "Slave-driving, Racist, White Supremacists, KKK members of the Antebellum South (Democrats)" were actually conservatives... yes, conservatives fought, but they lost in both instances...
@DKzgd You’re a failure masquerading as some compassionate intellect. I’m not brainwashed/stupid; I’m just a Conservative which means I see through your selfish, pathetic bullshit. You see, a fuckhead like you will never be rich; so you hate the rich and call it ‘compassion for the poor.’ You have no personal/moral code of decency so you hate those that do and call it ‘open mindedness.’ You offer nothing to society and hate those that do and call it ‘income gaps.’ People like you blow.
@mdstalla lol so typical, replying with incoherent ramblings based on your preconceived opinions, once again proving how ignorant you are. You literally know jack shit about me, my financial status, political orientation, or my morals... so thats just another fail on your part...
And I like how your types always have some coup out; poor liberal is a failure, and rich one is elitist...
By "conservative" you mean: sad little pile of prejudices and ignorance...
@DKzgd Nothing’s more overused than the cookie-cutter Liberal platitudes: 'Prejudice and Ignorant.' What kills you is that I'm dead on, aren’t I? I don't have to know the life story of a fuckhead like you to know you're nothing but a washed up, bitter Leftist loser. Rather than making something of your life; you side with the self-pitying Liberal Philosophy that claims the rest of us owe you something for your failings (that is when they’re not busy pushing for man/Doberman marrige rights).
@mdstalla lol wtf, you still dont get it? What are you five or something?
Lol dont worry, I'll spell it out for you: you see, my remark about you being ignorant and prejudiced wasnt a generalization of conservatives, and it doesnt have anything to do with them, it was directly aimed towards you. I was making fun you because you've assumed I'm liberal, leftist, or whatever, and tried to give me a lecture about the failures of my supposed ideology...
@DKzgd It’s equally common for a Liberal asshole to deny his unabashed allegiance to the Liberal ideology while fully supporting every one of their insane, destructive and childish initiatives. You do this because to be a Liberal is to be a failure (or someone who benefits from other’s failings). Rather than owning up to it; you again make the false claim that you are an independent thinker—an intellectual elitist who is above subscribing to any singular ideology. Tell me where I'm wrong!?
Where are you wrong? lol, where to start? All your post are just pile of pathetic straw mans, which I guess, in your head, should be some form of witty insightful rhetoric... well they are not, they just make you look like giant uneducated ignorant prick...
But, lets go one thing by a time. For start you can name one of these "insane, destructive and childish initiatives" for which I've expressed my full support...
@DKzgd Wow; you are smart! I haven’t heard a Liberal use the ‘strawman’ defense, or the ‘ad hominine’ defense; or the ‘Pascal's Wager’ defense; for days now! Can I join your bookclub—because I’ve been reading: “How a Dumb-fuck Liberal Can Use Pre-fabricated, Super-smart Sounding Phrases like ‘Strawman’ to Avoid Arguments They Can’t Intellectually Defend; While Still Sounding like They Are NOT Washed-up, Dumb-fuck failures?” It's magical how everything I said about you is coming to fruition?
@mdstalla Well thats how you "intellectually defend" against fallacy; by pointing it out... and what you are saying is basically: "I'm making fallacies, but I'm right because I know you would point it out". lol no, you are just dumb fuck spilling out fallacies... Get it? Got it? Good...
Oh, I'm still waiting for you to name these ""insane, destructive and childish initiatives" for which I've expressed my full support... What, are you having problems? But you were so sure of your self...
@DKzgd Again; your run of the mill, Liberal clichés/platitudes will not work with me. You are a failure; desperately seeking justification and/or compensation for your inabilities and shortcomings. Worse; you deceptively masquerade yourself in the false-cloak of a compassionate, intellectual elitist. You are a mental patient that demonizes the staff because they don’t subscribe to your imaginary; perfect-world bullshit Utopia that exists nowhere except the space between your wanting ears.
@mdstalla What cat got your tongue?! You seem so sure about my political orientation, but cant name one policy that I support...
If you cant do that, then I'm going to have to assume you are a troll... cause thats what trolls do, never backing up their claims, instead focusing on mental health of their opponents lol
@DKzgd My predictions about you are so accurate, youre now making requests. It’s like a magic show for Liberal fuckheads! Ok; you support class-warfare because you are a jealous bigot and a racist. Oh, I’m sure youve convinced yourself that youre openminded/compassionate; and anyone who opposes you views is the real bigot; but its smoke and mirrors. It is you who constantly places Americans into neat, separate categories based on wealth, race and creed; then pins each group against the other.
racist - lol no, actually there were plenty of YT videos in which I debated racist fuckheads
bigot - no
open minded - perhaps, depends upon definition of the word
compassionate - try to be
you ignorant fuck head, I'm not even an american (ignorant as not having enough decency to check my profile, before proceeding with your wild assumptions)
so, that was an EPIC FAIL lol... would you care to try again?
@DKzgd What's with you European pussies; seriously? Your countries are declaring bankruptcy like dominos because your governments 'promised' cradle to grave entitlements to each citizen--a promise they couldn't possibly keep. Now your lazy socialist citizens are rioting in the street because they demand the government to continue taking care of them like fucking babies. Wow, didn't see that one coming. That is the end-effect of Liberalism; poverty induced violence. Yet you refuse to see it.
@mdstalla Haha a typical troll, after proving utter stupidity of your claims, you quickly try to change the topic...
1. countries are declaring shit... mines perfectly fine... and all the real "socialist" EU welfare states, never felt anything... so, you fail there...
2. the financial crisis was caused by you... so thats a fail too...
3. yea like typical brainwashed idiot you have no clue whatsoever what liberalism is, and you are mixing it up with some form of government socialism... lol
2. Everything is caused by the US. Because half our country is still Conservative; we are the last Western Nation who is still able to produce, innovate, advance and build. Of course the other half of our country is made up of Liberal fuckheads like you...hell bent on going down the shit-stain rout of Europe. Every problem, every financial decline, every economic slowdown can be traced directly back to Liberal programs.
2. you are brainwashed clueless idiot; "liberals programs" are spending sector, they are not generators of income... saying that they are responsible for anything is like saying that paying your childs school get you fired from your job... and thats why these programs always get cut down during tough times...
3. lol educate your self... your ignorance is of the chards...
@DKzgd You're absolutely right; the government produces nothing; it only spends. And whose money? The working or the non-working? The producer or the non-producer? The Educated or the Uneducated? The risk taking entrepreneur or the complacent welfare recipient? See; the problem with Liberalism is that it lives off the the very people it aims to eliminate; all in the name of compassion. Compassion to a dumb-fuck liberal like you is achieved when we are all, equally, eating out of dumpsters.
@mdstalla Yes I see your logic, the way to fight uneducation, poverty and poor life conditions is by doing absolutely nothing about it. And the way to be "compassionate" is to not give a fuck. Oh yea, you are right, spot on ; )
And btw trollface; you simply tried to changed topic again...
@DKzgd U have this dilution that a person can only be poor and uneducated by way of shear 'bad luck.' Nothing they did, or choice made led to that predicament. No; Conservatives don't want people to die of starvation; but it pisses us off when we see their 9 kids (from 5 different fathers) peddling drugs/ incarcerated; their 3 TVs and their 2011 sportscar--all paid for by my Liberally-forced compasion. Am I really a brainwashed racist; or is there a legitamate complaint here youre ignoring?
@mdstalla haha lol so typical; some ppl miss use social services, so therefore they are all scum and all programs are useless...
"U have this dilution that a person can only be poor and uneducated by way of shear 'bad luck." no, the point is that is CAN be poor and uneducated by way of shear bad luck, ie simply being born in bad family is enough...
Yea your programs are not perfect, and instead on focusing on improving them, you want to abolish them... its extremely naive and moronic...
@DKzgd So typical is right! What percentage of people on welfare has two arms; two legs; and a working brain? 95%? 98%? Do you really think the mass-majority of welfare recipients are wheelchair bound, mental impotents? And what causes one to be born into a bad family? Could it be that their single mother was a 2nd generation welfare recipient/drug addicted prostitute who learned that the more kids she had; the more government assistance she received? That lifestyle is a Liberal wet-dream!
@mdstalla Yea, and you think that all these welfare recipients remain on welfare forever, none get a job... lol
So in your silly little example its childs fault his mother was a junkie hooker... so lets punish the child for its mother sins... and god forbids we should finance services that would take her kids away and get them decent opportunity in life...
Point of Correction, you have Neo Liberalism mixed up with libertarianism. And socialism is a different ideology from liberalism, even though socialists tend to be liberal on Social Issues. But other then that great job.
Liberalism is a word that comes from liberty meaning freedom. And is a Political Ideology thats about Individual Freedom and Individual Rights, as well as Equality of Opportunity. That comes from the US Constitution. Its not about collectivism which has to do with Democratic Socialism, which is a separate Political Ideology from liberalism. Even though people who are actually Democratic Socialists, have been viewed as liberals today.
The Difference between a Liberal & a Leftist, an allegory:
Imagine a river, and every few minutes a baby comes floating down it - a liberal will get the babies out, maybe feed it, clothe it, send it to school etc. A leftist on the other hand will take the time to go upstream and eliminate the sick fucker throwing babies in the river.
Why start liberalism with Mill? John Locke would be the more logical place to start when contrasting Hobbes. Locke was Hobbes' contemopary, and wrote his treatises of government in response to Leviathan.
You've also mislabeled "classical liberalism" as "neo-liberalism."
The kind of person we would label a libertarian would be called a liberal pre-WWII. A liberal today would be called a progressive. While conservatives of today would be traditionalists.
Dude, this is really good. Your explanations are concise and clear, without a lot of complex terminology. You should really become a teacher, if you aren't already. I wish I had you as my middle or high school teacher because you are way better than the people who taught me. Also, I'm a history major, poly sci minor and everything you said was great. Good stuff, please make more videos.
to my knowledge another difference between neo-classicism and neo-conservatism is that neocons believe in a unilateral way of interventionism. that requires a lot of military force, so isn't there a contradiction in your explanation?
in my home country UK, they strip us of our rights and call them "civil liberties", "civil" meaning that these are liberties that can be given and taken at the will of the government. In my perspective freedoms are not granted or given, we are born with them and the government promises to keep out. They do we shoot them, too bad they took out guns :(
@jetdude101 well said. We'd still have th capacity to defend our freedom though if the general public weren't such mindless shells. Until we can re-invigorate the public and educate them properly there's nothing we can do.
I must say I completly disagree with you. It is my belief that most rights, with only a few exceptions, are not granted but earned. There are no such things as rights, only privilidges that are earned by fulfilling social responsibilities.
@MerlinYoda You are correct: if you mercilessly kill someone, commit genocide, things like that. You deserve to die. I don't like capital punishment because I don't think it gives civilisation anything back. Forced labour would be far better. But obviously such power would be hard to control without an idealistic enviroment withut corruption.
@AugustusTheEmperor So would being allowed to continue living really be a privileged or is it properly called a right? I'd propose that it's a right and that the actions you describe (murder, genocide, etc.) are exceptional cases in which one or a group (say a government) may claim just cause to violate another's rights because of their prior violation of the same upon another party (e.g. murderer is punished for crimes and that punishment involves infringement certain rights).
@MerlinYoda Technically speaking it would be a priviliedge. Society allows you to continue living in society as long as you obey the social contract ie. dont kill, rape etc.. I actually am dead against capitol punishment for a number of reason one of which is because being allowed to live is a right. I know, complicated but the difference is living and living in a society. Exile, after serving your social debt, would be the preferable option.
@AugustusTheEmperor I think I see the distinction you are making here. Although, some might call that hair-splitting, but it is an important distinction.
I'd be for replacing the death penalty with exile to some remote locale. Air drop some supplies occasionally and let them sort things out themselves (granted we still have to monitor it to make sure they don't escape). Easier to correct mistakes in judgments then. Unfortunately some might call that "cruel and unusual punishment" these days...
@MerlinYoda It might be cruel and unusual but I think we should remember that rape, murder etc is also a cruel act. And if we standardise it, it is no longer unusual. :D Glad to see we could agree; the difference is so subtle most don't think about it, but it does make an important change in how you view punishment and criminal justice etc etc....
The role of the government should be to police and maintain justice and the military. It's role is the defence of freedom. Taxation is necessary to achieve this end but it should be minimalistic and serve only these functions. Any social functions can be achieved just as well by charity work. Charity work is run far better than government socialist programs, has better success, costs less and has the advantage of allowing free will rather than forcing people to give money to the poor.
@Ironzealot7531 Well, he talks about modern liberalism, but that's later on in the video and he makes a point of separating it from neo/classical liberalism since Americans would go "wtf?"
@FabiusMaximus96 oh i don't know, the selfish company owners, the overly powerful corporations, oh and the idiots who thought it was a good idea for the people to handle the economy, people are selfish and stupid, you must be careful with that, balance out the government and economy some communist ideals, some democratic ideals, some free market, some socialism. Balance
@AlexSaysHi2013 I have to disagree with you; I'm not saying I like the Big Corps, but that isn't the free market. I can't explain it because i'm not very good with words. But remember, it's people running the government.
@FabiusMaximus96 believe me friend I'm not saying it's evil, just flawed, like anything else, you need a balance of power between the people and the government, but in a world of extremes you get parties and blah blah blah, you know how it goes! 'sides, my dad owns a small business in construction i know about a lot of the bullshit contractors and state officials pull just so they don't have to put a pipe here or there, and me and my dad are socialists...soooo yeah
@AlexSaysHi2013 so you and your dad like having massive amounts of your money being taken by coersion and handed out to others? These others, in my country at least, have a tendency to be in a state of violence and crime. This is not true of all but it is true of many. These programs don't even help alleviate poverty, instead it traps people in poverty. Some programs have even directly caused poverty and riven people onto the benefit system. Socialism doesn't work. Free Market does.
@Historyisthekey i understand completely what your saying, but what about the corporations who cause an equal amount if not more pain, by taking jobs away from hard working people and make them turn to crime, then the Government taxes them so much it makes it impossible for small business to flower, but if you have a balance between socialist aspects and free market ones you can make life enjoyable for most people, i don't prefer one or the other but since i live in the US i advocate Socialism
@AlexSaysHi2013 However, all it requires to stop big corporations driving small businesses out is well enforced law. It's illegal to deliberately drive a business into the ground. So they can't just buy a majority share and take them out. Other than that businesses don't have to make shares public and businesses don't have to sell. Admittedly it is difficult for competition to break into the market but that doesn't mean that it can't be done. It's only impossible in large, simple manufacturing.
@Historyisthekey well that's only when things work perfectly, in concept everything is perfect...on paper, I mean doesn't sharing everything sound great, but on the other hand, doesn't equal oppourtunity for all with out discrimination of race or sex!! but there's always some else who it doesn't work out for, or they don't like change and they find cracks, balance is the best, a bit of socialism here, a bit of free market here, no party government for damn sure, that's all I'm trying to say
@AlexSaysHi2013 I'd at least agree that political party based politics negates the whole concept of representative government. Each individual should represent his/her constituents rather than serve anyone or anything else. Political parties are designed to the opposite of this. I would, however, continue to disagree with the other point you make. I maintain that a free market is the best system. Granted it can't be perfect because we're human and are, by nature, imperfect.
@Historyisthekey POLITICAL PARTIES ARE WORSE THAN CORPORATIONS. If you completely, and i mean completely, abolished all parties period, then yes representative government is the best system out there! but we won't do that, we are greedy, parties are greedy, just as politicians are greedy, but a balanced free market system with HEAVILY enforced rules and sanctions on fairness, and taxation based on income, not too much mind you, would probably be the most ideal governing for me and humanity
@AlexSaysHi2013 in the end it's not the form of government that's very important. Merely the extent of it's influence. It should be primarily about self-determination. Representative democracy is easily corruptible making it a far from ideal system. We could maybe look at having a open assembly for all citizens now that computers have come this far as we could vote electronically on all issues. If you'd like we could talk about the ideal government form. There are many issues to consider though.
@Historyisthekey i can see a "internet democracy" working, hackers would make it hard to regulate but yeah we can talk about ideal government all day, we should meet in real life or on yahoo though it's hard to talk through youtube!!!
@Historyisthekey ...oh boy, this is gonna take a while, well since we are here's something, there is horrid smell emanating from a the cooper tire dump site on my route to school, when i mention this to my step father, a former member of the Community Development Foundation, he said he wouldn't do anything, outraged, I demanded why, he explained how that while working on the team 5 years ago to cap the dumping problem before it got worse he proposed a economic plan to take care of it
@Historyisthekey picking up where i left off...the plan would lead all the factories in the area treating their sewage and then dumping it without and any environmental damage, and with no smell, the rest that was untreatable would be transported to the local treatment center for further work, when he submitted it the project lead denied and instead proposed they go to the EPA to change their permits so they could dump, my step dad told him "in a few years that place will smell like a dead body"
@Historyisthekey this is long...the project lead took both plans to the factories and you can guess which one they choose, and the FUCKING EPA approved their changes to dump in the city, after the fact my step-dad told him "in few years everyday i drive by there it's gonna smell like you" that guy who let them dump there is now the president of the CDF...THAT is one of the few reason why me and my step-dad are socialist, because in Mississippi there is no one else willing to do the right thing
@AlexSaysHi2013 the best solution to problems such as environmental damage is granting property rights. If someone owns the river or wherever any dumping takes place, or even if they own the ground around then they can prevent any dumping that is unduly damaging to the environment by legal action. There wouldn't have to be much regulation in a free market, just a good property rights law.
@Historyisthekey but when the corporations, like copper tire, can just ignore the law and the law enforcement is on their pay role...it makes me want to rebel! the second amendment is there for a reason!
@AlexSaysHi2013 true. The American government no longer cares about the constitution though. They have and continue to make laws that contradict it and they don't seem to care at all. What we really need is a police force commanded by incorruptible people. There aren't many of them but if we had them in charge of the police it'd all go much smoother. Right now, however, it's very bureaucratic.
I think the main problem is, at least when it comes to nations like Britain and America is that we are already fairly liberal so to stay in existence the liberals need to come up with new ideas that aren’t already in place and to be honest some of those ideas are getting a bit silly... I think we all need to stand back and have a good think about what needs to be done in the modern world rather than just charge in and try to change everything at once.
You were are about some thinds but not all! Your are freer in a Liberalism State Government but at the same time you are a totle slave to the Government. Because the Government give you the rights instead of God give right, it is the government that give you the right not the god. Also they can take take those right in a second if the want to do so. The way they jugdes you is if you suport them or not if you don't you will be crash by them. If you you support them you will have Freedom. Part 1
its strang that you bring up the levayathon, i was just about to start reading it. I have just finished re-reading the national question and decided to read something new. How to rate and do you recommend it?
@TheWoodstock2009 liberalism has private ownership of the means of production, class's, mostly a state, and is only barely egalitarian. Not communism at all.
Man i hope i dont have to read the leviathan at school, although i would like to read it in my own time. Platos Republic, Machiavellis the Prince, and The art of war. Was quite a handful at the time. Anyway great vid Stalin very informative, and keep up the good work.
An excellent oration J. Stalin! Have you considered becoming a professor in a university when you graduate? I think you would do a good job in that field.
@ganon167 Gee, it sure is boring around here. I just wonder what Ganon is up to. Oh no, him and his evil minions have seized the isle of Koradia! My sword is enough.
@IiiERT Neo-liberalism and classical liberalism are more or less the same thing. Personal freedoms, government doesn't involve itself in the economy, etc. etc.
I need to agree with Thomas Hobbs on this. If you give people to much freedom and rights, they'll flip. You cannot trust everyone to be righteous and to obey the laws. That's why sheep need a shepherd.
@StefanOrelj - It's an evolutionary thing as much as anything, humans have developed to look up to authority and there is a definite survival increase to having a group leader, there have been some interesting studies conducted, the most interesting to do with the people who worked in the concentration camps, in any case there needs to be a government as you say or everything would end in turmoil. It is why Anarchism will never be a plausible form of government.
@TheUnillogical I agree to that! But far more important question is ahead. What Government! Democracy, Fascism, Communism, etc..... In my opinion the Roman Empire was the greatest form of rule in the whole World. It was a mixture of Democracy, Aristocracy and Monarchy...but it was devoured from inside....by corruption.......damn you CORRUPTION!!! :)
@StefanOrelj - I don't know you raise a good question, power corrupts and if you limit the governments power you limit it's effectiveness, it's trying to keep a balance I feel between the power and the effectiveness of the government as too much power will always lead to corruption somewhere and too little power and then it will never get anything done!
Neoliberalism is kinda like what you've mentioned, but the people who really are concerned with a totally free market and only want government to protect individuals and do police, courts and defense and stuff are the libertarians or the minarchist libertarians. From the way you talk about government you might be interested in anarchism, there's alot of books from the original anarchist philosophers and new ones on the internet, you should check that stuff out. PM me if you want some links.
This guy is an idiot...

It is Liberalism that has changed…it’s manifested itself from the Slave-driving, Racist, White Supremacists, KKK members of the Antebellum South (Democrats); to the equally ‘race-consumed;’ anti-white, ‘civil-rights’ activists of the North (Democrats). They haven’t changed their racial-tendencies; they only change which side they favor! Conversviates have been ‘color blind’ since the beginning…we fought the Civil War and the Civil Rights Movement.

@mdstalla You are an brainwashed idiot, learn the meaning of political terms... liberalism is mainstream political ideology found all over the world, your democrats are not its embodiment... ideologies dont follow political parties, parties follow ideologies... so your "Slave-driving, Racist, White Supremacists, KKK members of the Antebellum South (Democrats)" were actually conservatives... yes, conservatives fought, but they lost in both instances...

@DKzgd You’re a failure masquerading as some compassionate intellect. I’m not brainwashed/stupid; I’m just a Conservative which means I see through your selfish, pathetic bullshit. You see, a fuckhead like you will never be rich; so you hate the rich and call it ‘compassion for the poor.’ You have no personal/moral code of decency so you hate those that do and call it ‘open mindedness.’ You offer nothing to society and hate those that do and call it ‘income gaps.’ People like you blow.

@DKzgd Nothing’s more overused than the cookie-cutter Liberal platitudes: 'Prejudice and Ignorant.' What kills you is that I'm dead on, aren’t I? I don't have to know the life story of a fuckhead like you to know you're nothing but a washed up, bitter Leftist loser. Rather than making something of your life; you side with the self-pitying Liberal Philosophy that claims the rest of us owe you something for your failings (that is when they’re not busy pushing for man/Doberman marrige rights).

@mdstalla lol wtf, you still dont get it? What are you five or something?
Lol dont worry, I'll spell it out for you: you see, my remark about you being ignorant and prejudiced wasnt a generalization of conservatives, and it doesnt have anything to do with them, it was directly aimed towards you. I was making fun you because you've assumed I'm liberal, leftist, or whatever, and tried to give me a lecture about the failures of my supposed ideology...
Now do you get how pathetic your failure is?
DKzgd 7 months ago
@DKzgd It’s equally common for a Liberal asshole to deny his unabashed allegiance to the Liberal ideology while fully supporting every one of their insane, destructive and childish initiatives. You do this because to be a Liberal is to be a failure (or someone who benefits from other’s failings). Rather than owning up to it; you again make the false claim that you are an independent thinker—an intellectual elitist who is above subscribing to any singular ideology. Tell me where I'm wrong!?

@DKzgd You're absolutely right; the government produces nothing; it only spends. And whose money? The working or the non-working? The producer or the non-producer? The Educated or the Uneducated? The risk taking entrepreneur or the complacent welfare recipient? See; the problem with Liberalism is that it lives off the the very people it aims to eliminate; all in the name of compassion. Compassion to a dumb-fuck liberal like you is achieved when we are all, equally, eating out of dumpsters.
mdstalla 7 months ago
@mdstalla Yes I see your logic, the way to fight uneducation, poverty and poor life conditions is by doing absolutely nothing about it. And the way to be "compassionate" is to not give a fuck. Oh yea, you are right, spot on ; )

@DKzgd U have this dilution that a person can only be poor and uneducated by way of shear 'bad luck.' Nothing they did, or choice made led to that predicament.

Am I really a brainwashed racist; or is there a legitamate complaint here youre ignoring?

Do you really think the mass-majority of welfare recipients are wheelchair bound, mental impotents? And what causes one to be born into a bad family? Could it be that their single mother was a 2nd generation welfare recipient/drug addicted prostitute who learned that the more kids she had; the more government assistance she received? That lifestyle is a Liberal wet-dream!

Point of Correction, you have Neo Liberalism mixed up with libertarianism. And socialism is a different ideology from liberalism, even though socialists tend to be liberal on Social Issues. But other then that great job.
FRSFreeState 7 months ago
Liberalism is a word that comes from liberty meaning freedom. And is a Political Ideology thats about Individual Freedom and Individual Rights, as well as Equality of Opportunity. That comes from the US Constitution. Its not about collectivism which has to do with Democratic Socialism, which is a separate Political Ideology from liberalism. Even though people who are actually Democratic Socialists, have been viewed as liberals today.

The Difference between a Liberal & a Leftist, an allegory:
Imagine a river, and every few minutes a baby comes floating down it - a liberal will get the babies out, maybe feed it, clothe it, send it to school etc. A leftist on the other hand will take the time to go upstream and eliminate the sick fucker throwing babies in the river.

Why start liberalism with Mill? John Locke would be the more logical place to start when contrasting Hobbes. Locke was Hobbes' contemopary, and wrote his treatises of government in response to Leviathan.
You've also mislabeled "classical liberalism" as "neo-liberalism."
The kind of person we would label a libertarian would be called a liberal pre-WWII. A liberal today would be called a progressive. While conservatives of today would be traditionalists.

in my home country UK, they strip us of our rights and call them "civil liberties", "civil" meaning that these are liberties that can be given and taken at the will of the government. In my perspective freedoms are not granted or given, we are born with them and the government promises to keep out. They do we shoot them, too bad they took out guns :(

I must say I completly disagree with you. It is my belief that most rights, with only a few exceptions, are not granted but earned. There are no such things as rights, only privilidges that are earned by fulfilling social responsibilities.

MerlinYoda 11 months ago
@MerlinYoda You are correct: if you mercilessly kill someone, commit genocide, things like that. You deserve to die. I don't like capital punishment because I don't think it gives civilisation anything back. Forced labour would be far better. But obviously such power would be hard to control without an idealistic enviroment withut corruption.
AugustusTheEmperor 11 months ago
@AugustusTheEmperor So would being allowed to continue living really be a privileged or is it properly called a right? I'd propose that it's a right and that the actions you describe (murder, genocide, etc.) are exceptional cases in which one or a group (say a government) may claim just cause to violate another's rights because of their prior violation of the same upon another party (e.g. murderer is punished for crimes and that punishment involves infringement certain rights).
MerlinYoda 11 months ago
@MerlinYoda Technically speaking it would be a priviliedge. Society allows you to continue living in society as long as you obey the social contract ie. dont kill, rape etc.. I actually am dead against capitol punishment for a number of reason one of which is because being allowed to live is a right. I know, complicated but the difference is living and living in a society. Exile, after serving your social debt, would be the preferable option.
AugustusTheEmperor 10 months ago
@AugustusTheEmperor I think I see the distinction you are making here. Although, some might call that hair-splitting, but it is an important distinction.
I'd be for replacing the death penalty with exile to some remote locale. Air drop some supplies occasionally and let them sort things out themselves (granted we still have to monitor it to make sure they don't escape). Easier to correct mistakes in judgments then. Unfortunately some might call that "cruel and unusual punishment" these days...
MerlinYoda 10 months ago
@MerlinYoda It might be cruel and unusual but I think we should remember that rape, murder etc is also a cruel act. And if we standardise it, it is no longer unusual. :D Glad to see we could agree; the difference is so subtle most don't think about it, but it does make an important change in how you view punishment and criminal justice etc etc....

The role of the government should be to police and maintain justice and the military. It's role is the defence of freedom. Taxation is necessary to achieve this end but it should be minimalistic and serve only these functions. Any social functions can be achieved just as well by charity work. Charity work is run far better than government socialist programs, has better success, costs less and has the advantage of allowing free will rather than forcing people to give money to the poor.

@AlexSaysHi2013 so you and your dad like having massive amounts of your money being taken by coersion and handed out to others? These others, in my country at least, have a tendency to be in a state of violence and crime. This is not true of all but it is true of many. These programs don't even help alleviate poverty, instead it traps people in poverty. Some programs have even directly caused poverty and riven people onto the benefit system. Socialism doesn't work. Free Market does.
Historyisthekey 1 year ago
@Historyisthekey i understand completely what your saying, but what about the corporations who cause an equal amount if not more pain, by taking jobs away from hard working people and make them turn to crime, then the Government taxes them so much it makes it impossible for small business to flower, but if you have a balance between socialist aspects and free market ones you can make life enjoyable for most people, i don't prefer one or the other but since i live in the US i advocate Socialism
AlexSaysHi2013 1 year ago
@AlexSaysHi2013 However, all it requires to stop big corporations driving small businesses out is well enforced law. It's illegal to deliberately drive a business into the ground. So they can't just buy a majority share and take them out. Other than that businesses don't have to make shares public and businesses don't have to sell. Admittedly it is difficult for competition to break into the market but that doesn't mean that it can't be done. It's only impossible in large, simple manufacturing.

@Historyisthekey well that's only when things work perfectly, in concept everything is perfect...on paper, I mean doesn't sharing everything sound great, but on the other hand, doesn't equal oppourtunity for all with out discrimination of race or sex!! but there's always some else who it doesn't work out for, or they don't like change and they find cracks, balance is the best, a bit of socialism here, a bit of free market here, no party government for damn sure, that's all I'm trying to say
AlexSaysHi2013 1 year ago
@AlexSaysHi2013 I'd at least agree that political party based politics negates the whole concept of representative government. Each individual should represent his/her constituents rather than serve anyone or anything else. Political parties are designed to the opposite of this. I would, however, continue to disagree with the other point you make. I maintain that a free market is the best system. Granted it can't be perfect because we're human and are, by nature, imperfect.
Historyisthekey 1 year ago
@Historyisthekey POLITICAL PARTIES ARE WORSE THAN CORPORATIONS. If you completely, and i mean completely, abolished all parties period, then yes representative government is the best system out there! but we won't do that, we are greedy, parties are greedy, just as politicians are greedy, but a balanced free market system with HEAVILY enforced rules and sanctions on fairness, and taxation based on income, not too much mind you, would probably be the most ideal governing for me and humanity
AlexSaysHi2013 1 year ago
@AlexSaysHi2013 in the end it's not the form of government that's very important. Merely the extent of it's influence. It should be primarily about self-determination. Representative democracy is easily corruptible making it a far from ideal system. We could maybe look at having a open assembly for all citizens now that computers have come this far as we could vote electronically on all issues. If you'd like we could talk about the ideal government form. There are many issues to consider though.

@Historyisthekey ...oh boy, this is gonna take a while, well since we are here's something, there is horrid smell emanating from a the cooper tire dump site on my route to school, when i mention this to my step father, a former member of the Community Development Foundation, he said he wouldn't do anything, outraged, I demanded why, he explained how that while working on the team 5 years ago to cap the dumping problem before it got worse he proposed a economic plan to take care of it
AlexSaysHi2013 1 year ago
@Historyisthekey picking up where i left off...the plan would lead all the factories in the area treating their sewage and then dumping it without and any environmental damage, and with no smell, the rest that was untreatable would be transported to the local treatment center for further work, when he submitted it the project lead denied and instead proposed they go to the EPA to change their permits so they could dump, my step dad told him "in a few years that place will smell like a dead body"
AlexSaysHi2013 1 year ago
@Historyisthekey this is long...the project lead took both plans to the factories and you can guess which one they choose, and the FUCKING EPA approved their changes to dump in the city, after the fact my step-dad told him "in few years everyday i drive by there it's gonna smell like you" that guy who let them dump there is now the president of the CDF...THAT is one of the few reason why me and my step-dad are socialist, because in Mississippi there is no one else willing to do the right thing
AlexSaysHi2013 1 year ago
@AlexSaysHi2013 the best solution to problems such as environmental damage is granting property rights. If someone owns the river or wherever any dumping takes place, or even if they own the ground around then they can prevent any dumping that is unduly damaging to the environment by legal action. There wouldn't have to be much regulation in a free market, just a good property rights law.

@AlexSaysHi2013 true. The American government no longer cares about the constitution though. They have and continue to make laws that contradict it and they don't seem to care at all.

@OrcishTroll I guess that's a valid point but I don't think the war was about that issue... I think it was about cheap labor

@IiiERT Neo-liberalism existed back then, it just wasn't called neo-liberalism.
OrcishTroll 1 year ago
I don't think the world was advanced enough for it to called that.
Besides, wasn't the term invented in the 80's to describe Reagan's and Thatcher's economic policies?

@IiiERT Neo-liberalism and classical liberalism are more or less the same thing. Personal freedoms, government doesn't involve itself in the economy, etc. etc.

I need to agree with Thomas Hobbs on this. If you give people to much freedom and rights, they'll flip. You cannot trust everyone to be righteous and to obey the laws. That's why sheep need a shepherd.

@StefanOrelj - It's an evolutionary thing as much as anything, humans have developed to look up to authority and there is a definite survival increase to having a group leader, there have been some interesting studies conducted, the most interesting to do with the people who worked in the concentration camps, in any case there needs to be a government as you say or everything would end in turmoil. It is why Anarchism will never be a plausible form of government.

@TheUnillogical I agree to that! But far more important question is ahead. What Government! Democracy, Fascism, Communism, etc..... In my opinion the Roman Empire was the greatest form of rule in the whole World. It was a mixture of Democracy, Aristocracy and Monarchy...but it was devoured from inside....by corruption.......damn you CORRUPTION!!! :)
StefanOrelj 1 year ago
@StefanOrelj - I don't know you raise a good question, power corrupts and if you limit the governments power you limit it's effectiveness, it's trying to keep a balance I feel between the power and the effectiveness of the government as too much power will always lead to corruption somewhere and too little power and then it will never get anything done!

Fair enough in the scope of time considering the human race Fascism is modern, nonetheless it should not be believed for it being modern?

Neoliberalism is kinda like what you've mentioned, but the people who really are concerned with a totally free market and only want government to protect individuals and do police, courts and defense and stuff are the libertarians or the minarchist libertarians. From the way you talk about government you might be interested in anarchism, there's alot of books from the original anarchist philosophers and new ones on the internet, you should check that stuff out. PM me if you want some links.
