Subject: Why don't people just switch platforms?

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

We've been discussing Twitter and the app stores the last few days, and something that kinda confuses me is that people wait out their suspensions and then continue to give the platform they hate traffic. I left both Facebook and Twitter because of suspensions, and while I obviously have lost a lot of connections I'd rather give traffic to platforms that want me to be there. Why do people use the platforms they complain about?

Isn’t that like Target refusing to carry some item for not meeting their standards? What are your thoughts? r/Conservative seems to dislike companies having their own policies.

Subject: Dear ancaps, how would you reasonably prevent your ancap utopia from becoming a Hoppean nightmare?

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

The power of those with property is one thing among many that began my transition to left anarchism from being ancap. I come in good faith; try and win me back.

Anarcho-Capitalism is based on both the ideas of private property and the NAP. This meaning that whosoever has first mixed their labor with a piece of land (in a "sticky" Lockean view of homesteading in which said first appropriation gives ownership and inherentance rights to the individual) should be able to make whatever rules they want on that piece of land, no matter how discriminatory, and that using force to violate any of those norms or principles is an inherently immoral and violent act.

What, then, is Hoppeanism and how would it be dangerous to a "normal" ancap society?

Hoppeanism is more than just "socially conservative anarcho-capitalism". Rather, Hoppeanism is a direct outgrowth of anarcho-capitalism and paleolibertarianism (as Hoppe was Rothbard's student, who himself became a "paleolibertarian" in his later life) that has a unique and seperate ideology from mainstream anarcho-capitalism.

For example, Hoppeans are in direct opposition to

""Free” mass immigration from the non-Western world, multiculturalism, affirmative action, non-discrimination, the propagation of openness to diversity and alternative life-styles, to feminism and gay- and transgender-ism".

From Hoppe's foreward to White, Right, and Libertarian

So far this may seem like the "social conservativism" i was talking about until Hoppe says

"and moreover: Just as a libertarian order must always be on guard against “bad” (even if non-aggressive) neighbors by means of social ostracism, i.e., by a common “you are not welcome here” culture, so, and indeed even more vigilantly so, must it be guarded against neighbors who openly advocate communism, socialism, syndicalism or democracy in any shape or form. They, in thereby posing an open threat to all private property and property owners, must not only be shunned, but they must, to use a by now somewhat famous Hoppe-meme, be “physically removed,” if need be by violence, and forced to leave for other pastures. Not to do so inevitably leads to – well, communism".

From Hoppe's lecture Libertarianism and the Alt-Right: Distinct Yet Complementary

In short, Hoppe calls for individuals he deems "degenerate" to be ostracized from society, and if that fails, to be physically and violently removed from society.

Now most mainstream ancaps wouldn't necessarily have a problem with this as long as it was on the "property owner's property". As ancaps like to say, there is "no just forced integration", and if a Hoppean landlord has made clear in their rental agreement that they will not tolerate any of this "degenerate" behavior, lest they be physically removed by the local armed eviction agency. Ancaps would argue that such behavior would be seen as bad and that people would move out and find a different landlord as a protest of their unjust treatment of the fay individuals.

But this becomes a little more tricky when one starts to think about the Hoppean praxis. Essentially, once ancapistan is established, it will be up to individual Hoppeans within the ancap society to radicalize the property owners of society (workers/ renters don't have any democratic power in any ancapistan (another thing Hoppe abhorres: democracy)) such as landlords, bussiness owners, private park owners, etc. Once they have enough of these individual property owners within a certain area who are opposed to any sort of degeneracy or leftism, they can begin developing certain private militias that go around and physically remove anyone who advocates against the conservative libertarian social order that has been set up.

My question to mainstream ancaps: how do you prevent this type of thing happening without violating the property rights, and therefore the NAP, of the Hoppean land owners? Are you just forced as an anarcho-capitalist gay couple to move to the anarcho-communist commune? And what do you think should be done about the children of the Hoppean society, some of whom will end up being leftists or a member of the LGBTQ+ community, who will be excommunicated or left to starve?

I've found a better Reddit libertarian sub. You may notice a difference in the tone of the posts from that feed to things more related to libertarian concerns and less related to Trump Derangement Syndrome.

[Reply] [ReplyQuoted] [Headers] [Print]

The term "deep state" gets used on this subreddit more and more, just as it is appearing more and more in common parlance as people become aware of its existence and impact on life in modern America. For those who want background on what is meant by the term "deep state" the following essay is good starting point.
