  • Great video. Would you mind if I mirror it on my channel? It could use a few more views.

  • @Akatam0t0ma Glad you enjoyed it. That would be fine.

  • This is an essay I wrote for the video.

  • Thanks for the kind remarks, everyone.

  • This is something I've been mulling for some time. In general people's actions and attitudes when they interact directly are radically different from what they think their interactions via the state "ought" to be.

  • ...bamboozled people and then we got the State". I'm quite sure that cults were involved in the rise of the State, as cult thinking is involved now. The real question though is : what is it in the human mind that allows it to be decieved in this way in the first place? Why are we, under certain circumstancs, able to turn off our reason all together and think impossible things? It puzzles me intensely.

  • "The state has, in order to control us, introduced division into our thinking, so that we come to distrust others and look to the state for protection." -- Butler Shaffer

  • Great job on sending Hobbes' hypocrisy right back at him. The state divides people because people are adamant on debating how to use the guns against each other. I touched up on this in My Declaration of Anarchy, which I made when I was still a bit on the fence.

    This video was real good I might input some of this in my book later on if that's all right with you.

  • I love the last 21 seconds.

    "Politics, the actions of the state, facilitates and legitimizes theft, tyranny, and murder."

  • This is absolutely fantastic

  • @tumbleweedjoe:

    Mirrored! :-)

  • By and large, control of INFORMATION has been successful because the intellectual world is still locked into a phony verbal battle between 'left' and 'right', whereas the real struggle is the battle between individual freedom and the encroaching power of the absolute State.

    Is not about Anarchy or Tyranny is about equilibrium.

  • that was fuckin rad

  • What is this guy reading from...Rothbard or is it his own material? Google didn't return anything.

  • Excellent video friend. Please create more and share.
