Are you an anarchist yet? Join Us: The Free Thought Project.
Welcome to the Free Thought Project Facebook Page -- a hub for Free Thinking conversations about the promotion of liberty and the daunting task of government accountability.
The Free Thought Project was founded in 2013 by Jason Bassler and Matt Agorist. Bassler and Agorist have been activists for more than a decade and have been working in the alternative media for several years.
Mission
It is the mission of the Free Thought Project to foster the creation and expansion of liberty minded solutions to modern day tyrannical oppression. We feel that the internet has given way to a revolution of consciousness by providing for the massive and instantaneous exchange of information across the globe.
The Free Thought Project Feels that the internet is a place that can either ruin or expand the mind's of individuals and that choice is up to you. Hateful and obstinate ideologies cloud the web and often the minds of those who can't see through them. We want to change this paradigm by providing a beacon of truth amongst all the lies.
The Free Thought Project is a place for people to come together, who don't necessarily agree on all topics, but who want to see a brighter, freer, and more sustainable future for humanity.
The Free Thought Project is dedicated to holding those who claim authority over our lives accountable.

Lawdy mercy!Convince someone to hate President Trump?
Pray tell why I would ever want to even try to convince anyone to hate such a wonderful man as President Trump?
You are becoming more irrational all the time.

Anarchist, huh?
Where are all the posts on this FB page calling for violence against the government?
Good grief - you weren't embarrassed enough by the last article you posted Parsons? Doubling down on your idiocy is not really very smart.
The leftist-penned, attempted hit piece you posted earlier was roundly mocked and deservedly went down in flames, and now THIS?
The Free Thought Project is dedicated to holding those who claim authority over our lives accountable.
And there's your real problem with FTP - your submissive fealty to the almighty state doesn't allow you to question, criticize or hold accountable those in power.

Hey, Bubba....its their FB page and they are the ones calling themselves anarchists.
Are you saying they are lying?
Are you saying that the cofounder is a liar when he proclaims himself to be an anarchist at 1:02 in this video:

Where is your understanding of anarchy?
You need not call for violence against the government for you to be a hardcore anarchist.

One, I am destroying your ideal where you would not admit the one cofounder of TFTP is an anarchist, before I provided evidence to you where he admitted in the video interview that he is an anarchist.1
And two, I am forcing the reality on you that Matt Agorist the second cofounder hides behind a pen name and will not take personal responsibility for his articles or his actions.2
You may call it whatever you wish to and you can mock it as long as you want to .the fact is, and will always remain that truth is truth wherever you find it and nothing went down in flames .not even THIS.Gatlin posted on 2018-01-15 23:44:26 Reply Private Reply

Apple and Orange...Chit Chat Forum and Web News Publication.Since it is this forums policy to allow the use screen names, I will continue to do so.
It is not, and should never be, the policy of a Web News Publication for their Editor in Chief to use a pen name.
If you cannot verify who the Editor in Chief of a publication is....how can you expect any of the information to be accurate if only a John Doe is to be held accountable?

There he goes again folks - Parsons declaring himself the king of all media and the sole arbiter of journalistic standards.
Anyone not adhering to his arbitrary specifications is an unperson in the eyes of the Party.
Hey - you gonna join the lefties and require licenses for journalists as well? I mean really man - that's where your jihad is eventually going.
You've already shown your admiration for leftist ideology on the other thread which was a not-so-thinly veiled denigration of capitalism.

Oooh - so scary. An ideology that values individuals over the State and eschews violence.
I can see why the term "anarchist" makes you wet your Depends. Same way the term "libertarian" does.
You need not call for violence against the government for you to be a hardcore anarchist.
There are many shades of anarchism. Your problem is that you equate the term with violence.
Anyways, it's ironic when a full-blown statist calls an anarchist a threat to society.
... government is the very fountainhead of violence, constraint, and coercion.
I think Reagan agreed with that.
The two articles you posted about the FTP show that you reek with desperation.

I am the arbiter of no journalistic standards.
It is the Society of Professional Journalists who prescribe a Code of Ethics.
Listed last in these Code Of Ethics is:
Which begs the question:
How can the Editor in Chief of a Web publication be accountable and transparent by taking responsibility for ones work and explaining ones decisions to the public when he hides behind a pen name in violation of ethical journalism standards?
Answer that for me

You made a false predication that anarchy requires violence and you were proven to be wrong. Then you try to deflect with garbage when attempting to cover up your ignorance.
You do need to stay on point and not always divert into your spin mode when you are confronted with something you cannot handle.
At least, try

You see nothing of the sort and a flippant remark is no acceptable substitute when you are unable to come up with an intelligent response.
I do find it puzzling that you separate the words anarchist and libertarian when it is commonly accepted that libertarianism is also referred to as anarcho- capitalism and philosophical anarchism.
If fact you will find that the word libertarian was used by French anarchists in the 1890s as a synonym for anarchist. Therefore, some contemporary anarchists refer to themselves and/or anarchy as libertarian. I am surprise you did not know this or maybe you did not want to admit this.

The word Anarchy comes from the Greek, meaning without force, without violence or government...
Only a statist would make the claim that someone who holds these beliefs is somehow a danger to society.
...government is the very fountainhead of violence, constraint, and coercion.
And of course, in your submissive fealty to your god, the State - you believe that anyone who expresses those views should earn one a trip to Gitmo.

WHAT?You have lost your gourd and become completely irrational in you incoherent responses.
It was not I who equated the term anarchist with violence, it was you.
Since you have forgotten, read back through your posts .I am not going to look it up a third time for you.

Now you want to quibble about libertarianism vs anarchism as if you think you're displaying some sort of intellectual prowess. You have only one agenda - to praise the government and to denigrate those who hold views that are pro-freedom.
Libertarians want less government - anarchists want none.
Your idiocy is off the charts with this article and the other one you posted.
Oh, BTW - did I thank you yet for posting that leftist-penned article that had the effect of validating the FTP?
Well - thanks - you also made it clear that you value leftist opinion in your quest to smear libertarians.

Name that statist and where the statist made such a claim.I am neither a statist nor did I ever make such a claim.
Please, please .try to stay coherent and stop with the damned rambling with extemporaneous spotted remarks.

Then what is your frickin' problem? You're scared of the term "anarchism" and you are allaying that fear into a broad-brush smear of anyone who you have labeled as such.
On your other thread - you slammed FTP because they made money - now you are trying to claim that their anarchism is dangerous.

I believe that it would be hard to find movements in the U.S. today that harbors stranger political ideas and performs more weirdo actions than the self-proclaimed libertarians. No doubt, not every self-proclaimed libertarian believes in strange ideas, but libertarianism is a space which nurtures fruit cakes like you. The weird actions by libertarians and the extreme nature of the ideology give evidential cause to libertarianism strangest and most extreme notions.

Your opinion is duly noted, however your vehement anger and unchecked bile goes much deeper than that.
The anti-libertarian jihad you are waging has been consuming your mind for years if not decades. How did that start? Did a libertarian steal your girlfriend in high school?

In your libertarian circles, we often refer to someone as a "statists." So much so that the term gets overused and misused by you.
You refer to anyone who disagrees with you as a statist. When you are unable to counter a valid point I make, all you have left is to call me a statist.
Thats fine, you may continue to use the term .but not as name calling in lieu of an intelligent response.

Now that you have no rational comments, you are just starting to make up shit .drama queen.
I never display anger, let alone any vehement anger.
I am cool, calm and collected.

I do however find it so easy to lampoon libertarian philosophy since it often attracts the most outspoken fringe members of society. Look no further than those here on LF who profess to be libertarians to see examples of fringe members of society. I see libertarians, who like theists, start by forming a conclusion and then developing arguments to fit that conclusion.
Arguments that are always so wrong and misguided

One who worships the state and deflects any criticism of government criminal activity or corruption and believes the official narratives and propaganda spewed by fed.gov without question and is in favor of more laws, more surveillance, more wars, more tanks for local cops and overall hates freedom is a statist.
Like you for instance.

That's hilarious. It's the equivalent of promoting a gathering of blind fighter pilots.
Anarchy is for people completely devoid of reason because the core of it is the "You are not the boss of ME!" petulant whine of a 5 year old. It defies nature because mankind is emotionally and intellectually "programmed" at birth to give or follow orders. "Order" is something humans crave at the genetic level,or we would have gone extinct a long time ago.
There has never been and there will never be any form of government where someone isn't in charge and enforcing rules someone else doesn't like.
There is one universal truth we can all believe. NOTHING that goes against human nature lasts,and that includes governless societies. You can bet your ass that SOMEBODY is going to be in charge by the end of Day 2.
