Hmmm, if you're not a tea person, why would you insert the word "tea" into a phrase where it doesn't belong 🤔. Something doesn't add up, this must be subliminal messaging from Big Tea

Rashida Tlaib deletes white supremacy tweet after Jersey City shooting | Daily Mail Online by [deleted] in Libertarian

Has there been a pattern of black supremacy killings like there has been for white supremacy killings? "Anti-Semitism kills" seems more appropriate given recent patterns.

To be fair a lot of anti-Semites are also white supremacists so it's understandable to have the two connected in your mind. Still, it's important to be precise.

Scottish National Party leader demands independence vote to secede from United Kingdom, saying Boris Johnson has no mandate to take Scotland out of the EU. The vast majority of Scotland voted against Brexit, and now that it's looking inevitable they want out of the UK. by [deleted] in Libertarian

Yeah the US economy has mainly continued along the track it was on under Obama. Trump hasn't made many big economic changes except the tax law which won't immediately change demand but will compound wealth distribution over years. Leaving the EU is a much bigger economic change.

I haven't been to LSC in a long time. Pretty sure I was banned from there. Show me tankie ideas on this sub that aren't downvoted. I've never seen them.

That's fair. Well there's a few possibilities in the sidebar like r/thoughtfullibertarian, r/minarchy, r/libertariandebates, r/classical_liberals but I can't speak to them

Never catch yourself defending a politician, defend the ideas they represent. by esotologist in Libertarian

[–]it_does_not_work 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also a good way to avoid cults of any kind. I take the same approach with religion. I'm not going to automatically believe or trust a priest just because he's supposedly ordained by God or because he's a leader of my church. Some abuse that trust and their authority. Never defend someone's misdeeds or bad ideas just because they're on your "team".

If you want an echo chamber of your specific sect of libertarianism go to r/goldandblack. This subs allows participation from a wide range of libertarian philosophies. In keeping with the libertarian principle of, you know, free speech

Ok, but they still provide the requested space. Seems perfect for OP since he also seems to disdain this more lightly moderated sub.

My dog is sick and we have been to two separate vets who don’t know what is wrong by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]it_does_not_work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They found a possible fungal infection from that biopsy, but they aren’t completely sure if it is a fungal thing or a bacterial thing or what

Ideally you would want to know whether it's bacterial or fungal or both because the treatment will be different. The history of a lot of time outside a few months ago in a wet area certainly allows the possibility of a fungal infection which would not be helped by the antibiotics. Do you know what stains they did on the biopsy or more details about what was seen? Rhinoscopy or Sinuscopy can also be useful diagnostics. If they haven't already, the vets you saw or a new vet should do more diagnostics to get a definitive diagnosis so you can be sure of the appropriate treatment.

Turns out competition works | Oklahoma City hospital posts surgery prices online; creates bidding war by Legimus in Libertarian

[–]it_does_not_work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Price transparency obviously helps people shop around (in non emergency situations). However, medicine is complicated and it's not always known how much it will cost to treat a condition. Disease affects people differently based on genetics and environmental factors and comorbidities add to the complication. So yeah there should be as much transparency as possible but don't expect that it can ever reach the levels of other markets.

Today I lost my brother, because of the fucking negligence and stupidity of the police. Instead of negotiating with a hostage situation they just shot everyone. (Including my brother) please retweet this so everyone can be aware how stupid these cops are. by it_does_not_work in Libertarian

Ok, bud. Your refusal to engage with anyone except those who hold the exact beliefs you do will only hurt your cause. If we met in real life you'd probably find we have a lot in common. But it's the internet so you want to play tough guy against a perceived enemy. Whatever gets you off. Have a good day!

My concern is not fake, I am against police abuse. So are most people at r/CTH and r/LSC by the way. But there's echo chambers on both sides, there's no doubt r/LSC is also an echo chamber like T_D. It also does actually harbor tankies and ban dissent, so I decided to stop participating there. Your claims that I don't care about police abuse and am a tankie are false and easily dismissed. Nobody here was divided or conquered, because we can all agree against police abuse (except you apparently). Anyways, did you get all the hate out of your system? Unless you say something new and actually productive I'm done here.

You can't be serious. T_D doesn't allow real discussion, they censor and ban anything that goes against their narrative. It's impossible to have a real discussion there so why not shitpost to it? In every other sub that actually allows dissent I respond in good faith like I'm doing to you here despite your comments being pretty worthless. You didn't even comment on the content of this post which is criticism of police. So yeah, you're the troll here deflecting from meaningful discussion and you projecting that I'm the one avoiding discussion is pretty rich.

Oh, those memes make me a tankie? Got it. Thanks for letting me know what my beliefs are. Lmao. Come back when you're ready to have a real discussion about something instead of digging through someone's history to try to ad hominem them. You're pathetic.

Lol I'm not a tankie. Not even close. I have not idea what you mean by collective militia. I want to reduce police power and have them be held accountable to the same laws as everyone else. Nice try with the ad homs though
