With them electing a non Mises candidate, I thought I would dig for their official stance on an issue that had a very socially engineered public discourse surrounding it. Ron Paul was right that don't ask don't tell was a fine policy. Our pre-boomer ancestors knew faggotry oft enough resulted in degenerate behavior outside the bedroom. This policy made the point to fuck who you want, but dont be a retard with no opsec, or a narcissist who puts oneself before your fellow servicemen. Also, don't engage in witch-hunts.
I utterly despise how the gay agenda was actually a thing, not the bugbear we made fun of . This goes beyond letting Peter Thiel and Dave Rubin sex up their husbands; even then I have mixed opinions on both of them I didn't have 6 years prior. The self-righteous, dogmatic language the lgb-t-map+ "community" embraces to force their preferences without responsible society's consent should be reason enough to fall back to early 20th century policy. Doesn't matter what the movement is, such tactics cause societal collapse, just waiting for the inevitable trigger.
Point is, right-wing libertarians really need to find a new label that also separates them from the soccer-moms for Bush/Trump. That the hippie LPUSA suffers from so much Gramscian damage that they would lend any lip service to what is substantially and morally bankrupt has invalidated the uniparty alternative. If for the simple reason that there is no right to serve in the military, only equal opportunity to all civilians.
Libertarianism is heterogenous and goes much further back, at least to Bastiat in the early 19th century.
The more important part was that such policy should not be decided at the federal govt. level, which is almost what the Trump appointees achieved by repealing that piece of judicial activism. Some libertarians believed in the way the US handled the issue before Roe V. Wade was amended in the early 90s was ideal and consistent with Rand's objectivist philosophy, where sentience and/or heartbeat is the strong determining factor in which an abortion is illegal or immoral. This contrasts with abortion at any time including after birth, or pro-life that begins at conception.
Yes, government shouldn't be involded with legislating morality, only enforcing contracts.
Such laws were always enacted after child labor was on its way to extinction. I'm pretty sure the more paleolibertarian stance is ensuring economic conditions where a free-associating society will never desire child labor, or would be penalized (i.e. risk ostracization from a polity)
Rigorously defined libertarian-ism is decentralized law. Privatized or public roads aren't a pure, solved issue.I would certainly like more stringent license testing procedure so fellow commuters would drive faster and respond quicker. This is harder under the current system where transporation on govt/crony engineered national highways is an assumed human right.
Maybe they were booing the premise or presentation of the topic, I'm not sure.
I believe the earlier commenter's point could be better expressed as 'any functioning governing system requires shared, learned values/virtues that are vigilantly uphold by constituent members'. This isn't unique to libertarianism. It's over-simplified to say 'white-only allows this principle to work', but this heterogeneous libertarian society roughly describes 19th century USA (relative to rest of world), depending on time and place. Moving on, Hoppe makes it very clear that certain behaviors will see a person excluded or otherwise punished by their polity. However, if John McAfee want's to do cocaine on his own independent property, so long as he can upkeep the property and not harm others on his property. Gong in depth with how he could be punished is beyond the scope of this comment, but could include violent retaliation by other polities (who again share common understanding on certain universal rights) or a cessation of trade.
I could have made a post compiling and making a case for the right kind of libertarianism, but I assumed enough of this message board realizes certain observations of libertarians have merit. Working off that assumption, I just felt like venting about a certain example touching two topics (lpusa and brainwashing language technique) of which real-world occurrences really peeve me.
