What we have here is a mixed system of mostly regressive taxes... : microblogmemes

Backup plan. Take a length of fibre cable with you. When you get lost burry the cable and sone fuckwit with a backhoe will dig it up and you can follow them to society.

[-] Jasonw911@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

As an electrician, this is true.

[-] UnityDevice@startrek.website 21 points 7 months ago

But now you're stuck in the woods with a libertarian. You're worse off than before.

[-] Texas_Hangover@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago

Only if you rule out cannibalism.

[-] Event_Horizon@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago

Don't eat libertarians. They're full of parasites and taste horrible

[-] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 1 points 7 months ago

Nuh uh. Parasites violate the NAP and therefore do not exist in Libertarian society.

[-] hollo@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago

By speaking aloud in the woods I have mixed my labor with the land, and am therefore entitled to claim ownership. The libertarian is obliged to respect my private property and vacate the area before they violate the NAP by trespassing. By claiming the woods, I'm also no longer lost: I'm home.

It's how you summon Ron Swanson.

[-] doingthestuff@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

I'm not Ron Swanson but my moustache was twitching. But since I'm here I'll just say that there's nothing that Government can't make worse.

no one is saying not to vote.

[-] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago

lol…. You’re new here, aren’t you?

[-] wakumul@lemm.ee 0 points 7 months ago

no. but it would be quite easy to disprove me.

[-] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

ROFL… it’s easy to prove. Find a post about something either good or bad that Biden has done. More than likely, you’ll find one of these trolls whining about gEnOciDe jOe and spreading misinformation. I’m not naming names, but there are quite a few very well known trolls that frequent political communities.

Don’t bother looking in posts about Trump though. For some reason, lemmy “socialists” only seem to hate Biden. My theory’s is that they know no one here is voting for that piece of shit, so there’s no point in trying to convince anyone to, but they can help by convincing liberals/democrats to not vote to “send a message” thereby helping trump win 2024.

If the point is missed, yes- I’m accusing most of these “socialists” of being right-wing propaganda trolls.

if it were that easy, you could link it

It’s not my job or hobby to lead you to things. Do your own work.

[-] wakumul@lemm.ee 0 points 7 months ago

a claim made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. i don't believe and no one should unless you can support your own claim.

[-] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

The people here that matter, are aware of it- the people that deny it, are those trying to either hide it out of embarrassment, or they support it.

Either way, I don’t owe you anything. The internet rule of “either prove it or you’re wrong” doesn’t work in reality. A thing can be true without your entitlement of proof.

Either find it yourself, or walk away.

[-] wakumul@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

Either find it yourself, or walk away.

don't tell me what to do.

[-] wakumul@lemm.ee 0 points 7 months ago

“either prove it or you’re wrong”

no one said that. it's a strawman

[-] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

Walk away.

yea, but there is no reason to believe it without evidence, and i'm not responsible for supporting your claim: you are.

Dear libertarian: if taxes are theft, what do you think of surplus value?

One can't help but wonder if people here have sophisticated ideas on Proudhon, or just really no clue at all about anything.

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 0 points 7 months ago

Are you talking about me or about the people up and downvoting my comment?

I wouldn't call my knowledge about Proudhon sophisticated and I'm not interested in him enough to investigate further. At one point, I tried to read the book where the quote is from, but didn't get far. The introduction and the comparison with slavery is murder is the most important thing I think and after that, well, I really tried.

[-] General_Effort@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

The downvoters. (I'm in the same position on Proudhon.)
