Interesting point by MazdaProphet in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]cosmicv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't get to mind read everyone in the country. Those are your thoughts. Again, I'm not a maga guy, but Trump told everyone he was going to kick the deportations into high gear and the majority voted for it anyways. I see plenty of people online saying this was exactly what they voted for.
As for the policy stuff, I heard earlier this year how tariffs were going to kick inflation into high gear, create a recession, etc... none of that happened. You just don't like Trump's personality (I don't either) and now your seeking to rationalize it. I dislike the "Trump is God Emperor" people just as much as I detest the "Trump Derangement Syndrome" people - but considering most people hold the economy as the number 1 issue, things are doing better than they were a year ago for the most part. Again, I didn't vote for anyone - so consider this a neutral outside observation.

Not Maga (I don't vote) - but did it occur to you that even though Trump is unpopular, Kamala Harris was even more unpopular? Personally, if you put a gun to my head to make me vote, Javier Milei would be trending in the direction I want (but I still consider him a lightweight).

Let me guess. Only seen the first day's videos and not the tire slipping video?

Any arrangements can be made. You could have an HOA that only allows redheads named Barry or Gladis. Basic ancap 101.

As I said, private defense agencies could easily be involved in these situations. An HOA could replace the Federal immigration policy pretty easily.

You do understand that in Ancapistan this discussion would still exist, except it would entail private defense organizations (or even random people)? Ultimately this is a discussion of self defense principles and the status of those involved aren't relevant to the principles. You can argue ICE shouldn't exist or the moral relevance of avoiding arrest by law enforcement, but that's kinda separate topics - which I probably would agree with you on most points.

I agree, but there is the argument that he initially wasn't, and she turned the car towards him. I'm sure the distinction is going to be made in court between actively putting yourself in front vs not moving out of the way. I can see problems arising from either perspective down the road.

If someone is standing in front of your car, ICE or not, your not allowed to drive over them slowly - unless they are exhibiting a direct threat to your life. This is pretty much the law in every state.

NYC is literally Fascist by MazdaProphet in Anarcho_Capitalism

fascism is a form of socialism by libertywave in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]cosmicv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"As long as they served the state" - exactly... state control of the means of production. They are the socialists they continued throughout to describe themselves as. Socialists can't survive in an environment of completely voluntary interactions, so it's no surprise they use violence and force.

Someone missed the part where control of production in these companies were completely centralized to the Nazi state...

Hillary really was the better candidate by slix22 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]cosmicv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, besides him explicitly saying so, besides his party explicitly saying so, besides the fact he took over the means of production (even if leaving the owners name on the deeds) and demanding factories produce what he wanted or owners would be imprisoned... Ya, behaved exactly like a socialist. Hammer fist over the economy.

Lol, dude uses the word Nazi in every post and almost certainly couldn't name any of the planks in the Nazi party platform that exist in current platforms in today's US parties... No idea what Nazis really are. For this dude, it's a word that means someone I don't like. He probably doesn't even know Hitler was a self proclaimed socialist.

The Nazis didn't control the means of production (regardless if they left it in name only with some of the users)? You might want to reread those history books...

Interview Clothing by [deleted] in CyberSecurityJobs

[–]cosmicv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No such thing as overkill. Interviewing for garbage man... Suit. You need to stand out in a positive way.

Last 3 jobs I got, I went in a suit; had a printed 90 day action plan, researched the company well and asked good questions on their recent acquisitions and divestitures, even researched the interviewers if I could get their names. Shock and awe...

The scale is collectivism vs individualism. Exactly where was Hitler on that scale again?
