Backup plan. Take a length of fibre cable with you. When you get lost burry the cable and sone fuckwit with a backhoe will dig it up and you can follow them to society.

As an electrician, this is true.

But now you're stuck in the woods with a libertarian. You're worse off than before.

Only if you rule out cannibalism.

Don't eat libertarians. They're full of parasites and taste horrible

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Nuh uh. Parasites violate the NAP and therefore do not exist in Libertarian society.

By speaking aloud in the woods I have mixed my labor with the land, and am therefore entitled to claim ownership. The libertarian is obliged to respect my private property and vacate the area before they violate the NAP by trespassing. By claiming the woods, I'm also no longer lost: I'm home.

It's how you summon Ron Swanson.

I'm not Ron Swanson but my moustache was twitching. But since I'm here I'll just say that there's nothing that Government can't make worse.

this is super spammable. You could use it with vegans, bicycleists, standing desk proponents, free software enthusiasts, apple fanboys, anything. Its the ultimate meme!

Dear libertarian: if taxes are theft, what do you think of surplus value?

What would make a transcendentalist appear and convince you to just stay lost?

go to a hot dog stand and order one with everything

What if I don‘t believe in the existence of libertarians?

This is true

Ownership is only achieved through violence, or the implied availability of violence. Collective or otherwise

One can't help but wonder if people here have sophisticated ideas on Proudhon, or just really no clue at all about anything.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Are you talking about me or about the people up and downvoting my comment?

I wouldn't call my knowledge about Proudhon sophisticated and I'm not interested in him enough to investigate further. At one point, I tried to read the book where the quote is from, but didn't get far. The introduction and the comparison with slavery is murder is the most important thing I think and after that, well, I really tried.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

The downvoters. (I'm in the same position on Proudhon.)
