Posted on by

Please enjoy this recent episode of the Seeds of Liberty Podcast. This week we were joined by Raeford Davis, a former police officer turned voluntaryist. Herein we discuss being part of the “War on Drugs”, the massive failure of the “War on Drugs”, how making drugs “illegal” creates 80% of the problems in law enforcement, the Soviet era gulag numbers of the modern U’S’ prison system, supporting the use of violence against peaceful people, how prohibition fosters the environment we see around us, using artificial profit motives to pay for violence, the use of force continuum, Ron Paul/Lew Rockwell/Rothbard, how 95% of cops enforcing immoral laws are actually worse than the 5% of “bad cops”, asking doctors if they would lock up asymptomatic people, not getting arrested unless you’re running through a daycare with a bloody hatchet, the process is the punishment, policing for profit, legalization vs. decriminalization, how over 18,000 per year are arrested in SC, abolishing violent/immoral prohibition enforcement, how the East India Trading Company was the original drug cartel, the CIA funding the drug trade, kicking the CIA?FBI out of your country, the balloon effect, the iron law of prohibition, the Harrison Narcotic Act of 1914, addiction rates, how badges don’t grant extra rights, Nancy Pelosi being right (for once), and more!

Instead of giving money to found colleges to promote learning, why don’t they pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting anybody from learning anything? If it works as good as the Prohibition one did, why, in five years we would have the smartest race of people on earth.

Posted on by

Please enjoy my recent conversation with Christopher Chase Rachels. Herein we discussed how he became a Voluntaryist, founding the Blue Ridge Liberty Project, why Ashville, living with like-minded people, honing the message of liberty, what’s his book about, criticisms, being pro liberty, in your Anarchy society fallacy, every “ism” is the initiation of force except Voluntaryism, voting with your dollars, the Free Market rewards thrift and efficiency, without government we would be savages fallacy, appeal to the stick, the wondrous potential that government force destroys, moral hazard, perverted incentives, intellectual growth requires humility, we’re all born anarchists, military and police are the supreme nationalists, American Sniper, the necessary evil, truth must be complex fallacy, appeal to authority, politicians promising free stuff and more!

 

The great non sequitur committed by defenders of the State, including classical Aristotelian and Thomist philosophers, is to leap from the necessity of society to the necessity of the State.

Please enjoy my recent conversation with Katie Testa. Herein we discussed how she became a Voluntaryist, Anarchist, and Unschooler, Peaceful Parenting, talking to people about Voluntaryism, Non-Violent Communication (NVC), government without guns, be like a joyful child feeding a hungry duck, black and white logical fallacy, human needs are universal, NVC in relationships, NVC in parenting, peaceful parenting, emotionally grounding oneself, impossible triangle of parenting, appeal to antiquity, breaking the cycle of violence, children are the mirror of the parents, viewing one’s children as equals or peers, kids are natural scientists, authoritarian parenting, lazy parenting, curiosity is nature’s education, honestly admitting to one’s own fallibility, imposing one’s own passions and hobbies onto our children, intrinsic motivation, absorbing positive energy, life can be awesome, what do you want to be fallacy, difference between a quiz question and an actual question and more!

 

Learning can only happen when a child is interested. If he’s not interested, it’s like throwing marshmallows at his head and calling it eating.

Seeds of Liberty Podcast Episode 25: Sacrificing Mofos on the Altar of Progress

Posted on by

Please enjoy this recent episode of the Seeds of Liberty Podcast. This week we were shy a Dave due to technical issues but we were joined by Donnie, one of the hosts of the Force 2 Freedom Podcast. Herein we discuss the idea that anarchy is a utopian dream, being born to be a mooing cow in the field, chewing of cud in the brain, the unseen consequences of government intervention into the market, how the average human doesn’t have a grasp on logic, the burden of proof fallacy, Donald Trump’s website and the sole issue listed, The Great Wall of America, anarchy vs, monarchy, pyramids built with Mexican slave-labor, asking statists to define their terms, Trumps’ current wife and her superb tits, Bernie Sanders riding the anti-rich wave, the 1%, the term democratic socialism being analogous to the term child-rapist, licensed dog walkers, envy parading around as altruism, the Ron Jeremy Commemorative Dildo Lashing, subjective slip and slides covered with sh*t, sacrificing mofos on the altar of progress, the real “free” education, alcohol being the real gateway drug, thorium, forgetting about your neighbor because it’s good for the trees, Tesla, the perils of standing up to the medical establishment, how government destroys innovation, dying on someone else’s dime, how someone’s going to rape so why shouldn’t it be “me”?, how Dave is Donnie’s spirit animal, and more!

We are at heart so profoundly anarchistic that the only form of state we can imagine living in is Utopian; and so cynical that the only Utopia we can believe in is authoritarian.

Seeds of Liberty Podcast Episode 24: Stealing Scraps off the Table of Your Captors

Posted on by

Please enjoy this recent episode of the Seeds of Liberty Podcast. This week we were joined by Michael King, an agorist and panarchist who, among other things, is one the hosts of the Currency of Anarchy Podcast. Herein we discuss Michael’s transition from nationalistic military member to being an activist working towards the abolition of the State, agorism as “act of anarcho-capitalizing”, how Fred Durst owes everyone an apology, muh veteranism, “I fought for your freedom so shut the f**k up!”, breaking down walls, telling people that their god doesn’t exist, steal scraps of the table of your captors, the Luddites as the original minimum wage advocates, bleeding the State vs. starving it, legitimizing the State, ***We lost Michael around this point due to connectivity issues***, tiny houses, buying a ghost town, a big loophole with a prince law, seasteading, begging on the side of the road for property tax money, socialized dog-walking, monopolistic competition, and more!

The frequently discussed question: ‘What ought to be done with the reactionaries, who cannot adapt to liberty?’, would thereby be very simply solved: They may retain their State, as long as they want it. But for us it would become unimportant. Over us it would have no more power than the eccentric ideas of a sect which are of interest to no one else. Thus it will happen, sooner or later. Freedom will break a path for itself, everywhere. Max Nettlau
