Guys I am seriously thinking of going full ancap

Tolstoy was a fucking cuck.

Rand.

One thing I don't fucking understand, and I can't seem to really even wrap my head around the very idea…

Why do you even care for these proles? they are literally made out of plebs and normalfags; people who -by definition- owe existance and happiness to social subordination to the domminant current. They have cattle-like behaviour and are largely *unwilling* to grow intellectually beyond mainstream narrative.

Don't missunderstand me here, please, i'm not advocating psychopathy or misantrhopy. It's not even an argument against altruism, It's just that I can't really relate to these people, I don't care for their exploitation anymore than they themselves care about it. Why should I feel obligated to help them enmancipate themselves when they don't even want to? i absolutely can't, it's insane

. If you have "ascended" -so to speak- beyond the level of the proples in the intellectual sense, and you did it permeated by the same material reality than they did, then there is no reason to think that they are all incapable of it on their own, it just means they don't really give a fuck. what is civilization if not the achievement of the masses subordinated to a few revolutionaries?

So the point here, is not only that I care mostly for my own achievement and success, but also that I question the reasoning behind bothering to try and change the people, to devote any sort of energy towards this? I'd much rather to become sectarian and care for my immediate surrounding and those who are considerably more like myself than trying to fix the world, let them sink or swim, I got my own problems.

Why bother? Because humanity might perish if we do not? Humanity has lived through the ice ages in pre-historical times. we lived through Ghenghis Khan and the black death, we lived through a daily threat of nuclear obliteration for years… What makes you think that capitalism might just be the end? I don't see a single piece of convincing evidence to support the idea that Capitalism will consume the earth and that our species will be lost, even if climate change does indeed ravage the earth, it doesn't neccessarily mean that it'll mean the end of the biosphere.

What is it that drives you guys? a need for justice? that you do not want to see the proles as stepping stones? that you feel enraged at how the poor and exploited are just meatfodder for the rest?… but then again, where does your need for justice come from? and who is holding it up?

Who do *YOU* hold it up for? them? the ungrateful peasants? Or you do it for yourselves?

Of course, this is the main reason.

Well that explains why you are becoming an ancap.

Ancapism is just feudalism with a liberal coat of paint.

But again, why bother with communism? why not then become extreme capitalists?

Everything you say is proven wrong by when capitalism was mostly severed from the gov. Pre safety regulations and pre great depression - it was looked on as sinful to even try to interfere with the free market.

Also I'm willing to bet Adam Smith knows a bit more about capitalism than pseudo -philosopher Raynd.

How would these competitors be able to challange the monopoly if the monopoly holder held all the private property? Your ability to compete in a capitalist market is directly tied to the amount of private property you own and as your biggest holder of private property grows he will be able to buy out other owners of private property and secure a monopoly. History has shown that Private property will always be collected by holders of private property. And of course in a capitalist economy if you don't own private property(which is most people) you don't own capital and you can't compete.

Because I could get fucked under extreme capitalism, which probably wouldn't be a nice thing
