Yeah, this thread is going to sink fast for obvious reasons, but it did get me thinking though: I'm not entirely sure that I would immediately dismiss the idea of joining an armed combat and potentially risking my life if I both thought the struggle was justified and especially if I might possibly have a chance at living a life free of systematic encroachment of life, liberty and property...

Anyone else with me? I mean that wouldn't be such a bad wager; there's people out there dying in the name of gods, oil and their nation states (or, in the case of the soldiers in OP's link, the junta of revolutionary comrades who they think should inherit the nation state's role and powers) - maybe we need some real freedom fighters thrown in the mix...

Not that I think this would necessarily (or would even be likely to) work, and yeah pacifism combined with agorism might be a more effective, more noble, or even more durable way of achieving liberty, but not everyone is cut out for it honestly. Some people just want to do what's right and either don't care what happens afterwards, or prefer death to imprisonment and slavery.

I'm sorry but this movement of ours is frankly... unworkably naïve, if it doesn't recognise the inevitability of violent, "AnCap versus State conflicts"-type conflicts. The reason we don't have AnCaps currently fighting under black and yellow banners in some middle eastern clusterfuck right now but we have those guys in OP is not because our guys are wiser or more mature, but because these guys actually are/were a mainstream ideology that's been around and has been huge for a bloody long time, not to mention that it has attracted many millions from all around the world, especially amongst the oppressed and disenfranchised, those same guys who have had it the worst with state aggression, those same guess guys we should be targeting before they can be commie-brainwashed against their own best interests.

Communism never "work"ed, and nor can it, in the sense that it hasn't ever panned out the way it was meant to (or "as advertised"), but that hasn't been for lack of trying! We need to start recognising communism's success as an ideology, and then we need to figure out and replicate what has led to it.

Anthony Mitchell, who was being held after a mental health wellness check, died with a body temperature of 72 F after Alabama officers chained him naked to a chair inside a freezer and left him there for hours. Here they’re seen dumping his body in the back of a police SUV. Circumcision is a violation of the NAP. That is all. Are we stuck living our life this way?
