Libertarians on Liberty’s Post now find it perfectly acceptable to pursue the tyrannical practice of blacklisting anyone whose words offend their delicate sensibilities.

Unfortunately these narrow-minded individuals do not realize that the best remedy to validate their political ideology is to catechize remarks that disparage it by subjecting them to the crucible of open debate and rational inspection. Libertarians continually fail to show tolerance and adhere to cherished “libertarian” values while abdicating all confidence that their ideas will handily defeat opposition to their philosophy.

Libertarians propose the impossible and internally contradictory notion that they can support their cause with the angry suppression of free speech from anyone who speaks against them. They feel the remedy for comments and ideas they oppose is not the free and open debates of civil society, but a need to resort to Orwellian speech codes of an authoritarian dictatorship. Here, again, libertarians reveal their philosophy is a radical departure from a normal society and their unique iteration of fascism shares many of its historical and ideological roots.

Freedom of speech is arguably a most cherished value and the bedrock of a genuinely free society. The entire process of education and the freedom to challenge ideas is, and must be, predicated on unbridled freedom of speech and expression. Without this most cherished freedom, supporting and challenging ideas cannot be examined and assessed for their value and we will therefore live in a benighted world in which ideas are lost forever….flushed down the memory hole as too dangerous or offensive to the dainty sensibilities of libertarians who find these words offend them.

The validity of libertarian notions has been questioned and a morally consistent application of libertarian premises has been challenged in order to show why libertarians are mistaken about what their ideal requires. Libertarians generally defend the ideal of freedom from the perspective of how little one is constrained. Yet pragmatic criticisms of libertarianism now go unanswered because libertarians have moved to silence free speech. Sad, but so understandably predictable based on their rhetoric and actions.

Most of us aren’t defeated in one decisive battle. We are defeated in one tiny, seemingly insignificant surrender at a time that chips away at who we really should be.
Pathetic …

Nothing to compare to the libertarian asshole you are….who tries to restrict access to information on LF.

I am GLAD to see that I am still getting to you and that you can’t stay away from me even though you have me on bozo.

Hang around, Sonny, there is more….much more….to come.

No one is suppressing your free speech. I doubt that you even understand the concept.

In that case, wouldn't that make him the tyrannical one? It appears he is trying to suppress our freedom to ignore him by demanding that we respond to his posts.

I don’t mind that at all.

I believe the “freedom to not listen” is inherent in the “freedom of speech.”

Maybe that is at the root of his general hatred of liberty.
Nah, no hatred of liberty….it’s just repulsive that you made a concentrated effort to personally go out and ORGANIZE a boycott of my posts.

That’s fine. I can see from the responses on this thread that you failed in your effort and I am still getting to all of you asshole libertarians.

Nice, in a morbid sort of way, to see you all could not stay away….I knew your couldn’t.

LOL …

Heads Up ! Another article expose on the faults of libertarianism is on its way….there may even be a couple today, depending on the continued interest your are expressing in my crusade. BTW – Thanks for that.

Some libertarians have already locked themselves in cages to escape my messages that are factually ever presence of reality. A couple libertarians have me on bozo.

It is ironic that the Libertarian name was chosen as it indicated to some serious-minded students of liberty a perception that authoritarian movements and philosophies were pre-empting to prevert the freedom ideals for which the term liberal had stood.

Be that a noble cause, we are now however concerned not so much with the philosopyy theory but more so with the vagrant propaganda and the whoring of educational methods they constantly use.

It's in the constitution. /s
Nah, it’s in their nature to lock themselves away from reality.

It hasn't researched any of the libertarian local communities yet. Why do I know? It hasn't posted an article about even the Free state effort, as far as I know.

Instead "it" [aka: The Snake] runs around 24/7/365 pouting about all the socialist articles it cites as "libertarian concepts" while moaning it has no free speech.

It has a fuckedupped mind.

Last I heard, Liberty's Post is closed, and has been for some time now. Maybe whoever posted that title is a closet druggy, or has really serious mental issues !

Be best for that person to not try to operate a motor vehicle, or handle sharp objects ! Stay in his wheelchair !

His cheer leaders should reconsider their following him. He appears to have lost all grasp of reality !!

That seems to be the consensus among the sane posters here.

I think the bigger issue is the poster's abject hatred of freedom.

Has anyone else besides me notice that his articles and posts have been getting more and more yukon-esque?

His cheer leaders should reconsider their following him.

From what I can tell, his cult consists of known statists misterwhite, GrandIsland and Boris.

Pity, that.
When you consider the neurological perspectives of pity, you will find that modern neurology shows the basis of pity consists of a superficial aversion to the plight of the sufferer. However, after which the higher parts of the brain can then make a more detailed assessment of the situation.

I need to stop here and ask: Do you often have trouble with the higher parts of your brain making detailed assessments?

Continuing on …

It may be of help to you to learn the word pity comes from the Latin piets, that is also etymon of piety. The word pity is found often in the translations of Aristotle. It was Aristotle who put forth the argument that a person cannot feel pity until he has experiences suffering of a similar type. Now, that is a valid point you should carefully consider.

Which begs the question: How long have you had a “sad, lonely existence?”

I will close my lesson to you with this:

In Aristotle's Rhetoric he defines pity as follows: "Let pity, then, be a kind of pain in the case of an apparent destructive or painful harm of one not deserving to encounter it, which one might expect oneself, or one of one's own, to suffer, and this when it seems near". Aristotle also pointed out that "people pity their acquaintances, provided that they are not exceedingly close in kinship; for concerning these they are disposed as they are concerning themselves...For what is terrible is different from what is pitiable, and is expulsive of pity". Thus, from Aristotle's perspective, in order to feel pity, a person must believe that the person who is suffering does not deserve their fate. Developing a traditional Greek view in his work on poetry, Aristotle also defines tragedy as a kind of imitative poetry that provokes pity and fear.
I guess you slept through psychology classes, eh? Or either you took none.

I have no further time to waste on an ignoramus such as you …

Ah, it is my innate ability to write something that provokes a response and when no intelligent response is forthcoming because the content is true....It is extremely sad that all is left is a simple typo to cling to.

And Lord knows...I do PROVOKE the living Hell out of some folks.

You ignoramuses should not get all upset and pee yourselves while becoming overly obsessed with a typo.

An article in Wired pointed out that we make typos not because we are dim, but because we are clever. I’ll go with that. Writing is a sophisticated job and our brains focus on the structure, the sentences and the phrases not some minute insignificant typo. After we write, we have programmed ourselves to read only what we believe we have written and not what we actually have. That being the case, only assholes insignificant to world matters will make such a phenomenal fuss about one.

Why, there are even some typos in the Bible....GASP.

A Christian blogger in Canada last unearthed a missing apostrophe in her edition - "If we are crazy, it's for God sake", 2 Corinthians 5:13 - and was so shocked she wrote an entire post about it.

My sense of God is that He'd take this in His stride and would only get steamed up if a typo changed the meaning of His word by, say, omitting a "not" from "thou shalt not commit adultery". Otherwise, surely, He'd just shrug.

It’s amazing how the indignation of some numbskulls on typos is overdone, although it is usually harmless enough and noticed only because they can find nothing wrong with the content of the statement. Perhaps pointing out a typo gives a good jolt of outrage tinged with false feeling of superiority each time they spot one. And of course, feeling superior does the morale a power of good....when they have absolutely nothing else.

If this is the BEST you can do, I am complimented....HIGHLY complimented.

Thank you....thank you kindly.

Is THIS really ALL you have...a typo?

ROTFLMAO ..

But with respect to our patient's degree of "comedic relief" there is such a thing as too much of a good thing (as we recall became the case of Yukon).

Once the Sanctimonious/Moron-knob is turned up to an "11", day & night (again like Yukon), both ends of the turd lose their luster.

Not entirely inaccurate though. I've suspected he is recycling his old liberty-hating threads from back at LP. He went on tears over there, wallpapering the forum sidebar with his liberty-hating threads seminar-style. IOW, he's posting a lot of old liberty-hating articles, like maybe he's mining his old threads from back at LP.

I just don't get the payoff in doing it. It's a lot of work for something so counterproductive.

Fully agree !! But you can not rationally understand some one that is mentally unhinged. If he has family, they really need to get him help. He just seems to be getting worse & worse. Who knows, he may be a danger to himself.

If anyone here knows if he has any family, they should contact them, and suggest getting him some professional help !!

Last I heard, Liberty's Post is closed, and has been for some time now. Maybe whoever posted that title is a closet druggy, or has really serious mental issues ! [Underline Added].

Paraphrasing –

Uh, Stoner. Are you “delusional, hallucinating, or have they been consuming copious amounts of illegal substances” ???

Last I remember, there is no “Liberty’s Post” and there never was a “Liberty’s Post.” However, there was a “Liberty Post”.

Maybe whoever posted “Last I heard, Liberty’s Post is closed, and has been for some time now is a closet druggy, or has really serious mental issues.”

Stoner, since you wrote “Liberty’s Post” is closed, then common sense must dictate that you meant to write “Liberty Post” is closed....instead of writing “Liberty’s Post” is closed.

A typographical error (often shortened to typo), a mistake made in the typing process (such as spelling, misuse of tense, leaving out a word or using a wrong word) is not an uncommon mistake, and I can understand how it happened to you.

I can’t write “Liberty’s Flame” and neither can you write “Liberty Post”.

It is amazing to me why someone would expend that much time and effort to do that. To what benefit ?

Must have a real shitty life. Definitely a small mind. Probably has no family, and no friends. A real shame. As much of a nuisance as he is, I pity him !

Ah, when you get upset….the Ebonics start to flow. Is this a product of your upbringing. I suspect so. Your mama from the hood…is she?

Nah, I didn’t “copy and paste” the name of a forum that is non-existent....you ddi. lol ...

Or did you pick up that speech habit up from the people you hang around with? lol ...

Got it now. Probably take you a little while and some practice.

Right now, you are definitely in my crosshair.
