| 2 | Weeping Nazi started off as a “men’s rights activist,” which is no huge surpriseThe rules of contract which you mentioned are incompatible with the SOP because they would impose restrictions on what the self-owner could do with his property, i.e. his body, without thereby violating anybody else's property rights. Since the SOP implies initial maximal negative liberty, the enforcement of such rules cannot coexist with it. Therefore, the rules you speak of, regardless of how conventional they may be in the world we live in, could not exist in a libertarian world. That means t… | /r/MensRights | 19/08/17 06:35 PM |
| 1 | Weeping Nazi started off as a “men’s rights activist,” which is no huge surpriseI came up with my ideas and ideology on my own and found an ideology (libertarianism) that had the fewest contradictions with my own. If your personal ideology rejects the SOP, then it is distinct from and incompatible with libertarianism. My initial comment was about the implications of the libertarian philosophy and it is more than fair to put every self-described libertarian "in one box as though [they] all hold the same philosophies" because libertarianism is a specific philosophy. Yes, ther… | /r/MensRights | 19/08/17 06:22 PM |
| 1 | Weeping Nazi started off as a “men’s rights activist,” which is no huge surprisePeople should not inform themselves about a philosophy on websites filled with laypeople who spread mis- and disinformation. r/libertarian is filled with exactly the kind of people I talked about, i.e. those who educated themselves about libertarianism by watching youtube videos and reading online wikis or forum posts. And all of those who are adequately informed - yes I admit they exist in that cesspool as well - already agree with me with regard to the implications of libertarianism. This is n… | /r/MensRights | 19/08/17 02:18 PM |
| 1 | Weeping Nazi started off as a “men’s rights activist,” which is no huge surpriseSince you resort to name calling, I hazard the guess that you have no counter-arguments. In any event, you say that the first sentence is true. Thus, you agree that libertarianism is based on the self-ownership principle. According to that principle, all agents initially fully own themselves. Full ownership is defined as a bundle of rights that includes the absolute rights to possess, control, exclude, dispose, destroy, or sell. Since full owners have the absolute right to sell what they own, pe… | /r/MensRights | 19/08/17 12:04 PM |
| 1 | Weeping Nazi started off as a “men’s rights activist,” which is no huge surpriseSecondly, libertarianism doesn't necessarily believe it should be completely legal for kids to take drugs According to libertarianism, it must be permissible for children to do whatever they want to, or are pressured to, do with their bodies. No kind of paternalistic intervention is acceptable because that would violate the SOP. Libertarianism is the the belief in individualism. That definition is too wide. There are plenty of individualistic philosophies that are not libertarian (see Nietzsche … | /r/MensRights | 19/08/17 11:53 AM |
| 4 | Weeping Nazi started off as a “men’s rights activist,” which is no huge surpriseLibertarianism as a whole, on the left and on the right, is based on the self-ownership principle. This principle implies that slave contracts ought to be legitimate, that it ought to be legal for children to take drugs, drive cars or have sex with adults and that the death penalty (or any other penalty) is justified for even the slightest uninvited exertion of influence, such as reflecting photons off of your body unto somebody else by standing in the sun. It is an utterly broken and debunked p… | /r/MensRights | 18/08/17 01:57 PM |
