  • How one can go from supporting anti-statism to completely against every single idea propounded by it is astounding to me.

  • @Dabba23

    I have answered this question in detail. See the following :

  • @spawktalk That was kind of my point. I was more remarking how strange it is to see someone just completely do a 360 on their philosophy. It obviously doesn't invalidate your position. I just don't think I've ever seen it before. If you had come to the conclusion that, say, defense was just not good enough in a stateless society, I could see that as a deal breaker. But, you came to the conclusion that pretty much all your former conclusions were wrong!

  • @Dabba23 Well, it is more than just anarchism. When I started making videos I was a determinist, anti theist, materialist , epist. realist, economic austrian/reductionist, ect. I have changed many of my positions on many thing. I like to think that it indicates that I'm still learning a lot and staying some what open minded. It also might be seen as indicating that I was a retard a year ago, lol. Either way, you're right , a lot has changed!

  • Coincidence that you come back when fringe-elements leaves his anti-statist channel.

  • @MirageScience lulz, I used to have a video on vulcanthug from December in which I stated I would return to spawktalk in feburary. Further, fringe refused to respond to my arguments against him, I don't care what he does. The world doesn't revolve around him, sorry.

  • I like the calmer background ambience better on this one.

  • It's funny how people say that the market is a pure propaganda machine, brainwashing helpless consumers into buying crap, and here you are saying the market would not be propagandistic enough.

  • You've identified the hierarchy of the family as the primary source of the state. Bravo.

  • "The state" is a free rider! Off to a bad start.

  • Nonsense. First of all, there's not free speech on private land. I don't think it's a stretch to say that a TV channel that puts out statist propaganda will be blacklisted. And if that's not the case, don't you think all of the entities the state would take over have an extremely high incentive to battle this propaganda? Assuming this is an anarcho-capitalist society, it would be these entities that have the most funds, and thus they'd be able to win a propaganda war.

  • When I see a McDonalds commercial, it makes me want to eat food. And 100% of the time, it's not McDonalds food. FREE RIDING!!! McDonalds will surely be overtaken by the free riders and fall into bankruptcy.

  • interesting points.

  • Hmm, ok, this about the vulnerability of a stateless society is indeed perplexing. But I still don't know what is your plan re how to limit a state, perhaps you have videos about this?

  • @MarmaladeINFP

    Ah well you could ask questions there by typing and I could speak. If you wanted you could type out objections with no comment limit. My video explaining my position part1 and 2 generally goes over my transition.
