are you a green anarchist or an anarcho primativist?

Why are all the political terms in America corrupted to mean their inverses like it's 1984?

Wait wtf Ben Garrison is a protectionist now?

im ted kaczynski

so autistic(anarcho primitivist)?

libertarians are tired of being losers and got on the trump train.

Pic related, libertarian

libertarians are doing major mental gymnastics to join the trump train, event though gary "i dont care if you're disabled, you better pull up them bootstraps" johnson is running.

coming to you live from the computer i made out of tree bark and dirt

youd be surprised how many of them still go to the doctor when hey are sick

why even live?

Hillary a thicc bitch

The capitalist apologists have a history of stealing leftist terms like anarchist, libertarian, grassroots moment, etc.

Just call them propertarians and anti-state capitalists. It suits them perfectly

The U.S. is a very special place where social liberals and conservative liberals twist everything in their own liberal ways. Go anywhere outside of the Anglosphere and libertarian still means anarchist or libertarian Marxist.

the thing that i appreciate about right-libertarians is that they dont feign an interest in the working class like trump does. gary johnson is incredibly upfront about the fact that he's not trying to help poor people.

I agree, it is a bit refreshing. I don't intend to vote, but if I were I'd vote for him just because he's up front about the whole thing, I'd probably have less trouble forming a commune with my buddies in his system than in Trump or Hillary's autocratic nightmare.

le "I'd vote for a neo-feudalist if he was honest about it" meme
Stop.

Libertarians are mad he threw that one guys gun in the garbage

It was to be expected to be honest
In US libertarianism there was always a form of cognitive dissonance, with them being pro free trade but also politically isolationist.
That's not how global trade works, it's an infantile mindset and the isolationist tendency seems to have won out.

The fuck does globalism mean?
Another thing to blame instead of capitalism?

It's the jewish global crony capitalist conspiracy to bring stinky brown people into the country

Also, no joke, the Natsol party in my country lumps anything in the far left together with globalism because we aim for internationalist socialism, adn thus also want to destroy the white race with stinky brown people coming here.

Useful idiot.

Globalism means the bourgeoisie class being kings of the world above the law. A bureaucracy with so many laws you are always breaking many of them for the rest of us.
It operates by putting materialism as the only value. You no longer have a right to life or freedom, you only get to survive if you obey like a good slave.
Globalists are megabourgeoisie that can exploit from afar with government backing and are never under threat from those they exploit.

for what? Explaining how the altright interprets globalism?

That's part of it, but I think there's also a legitimate change of platform among them. Liberals were right about them the entire time, they're sociopaths that only want society to favor them personally.

To them there is no difference between liberty and authority as long as they get what they want.

It essentially just means increased interconnectedness between nation states, primarily economically but politically as well (see EU, African Union, ASEAN, etc.) Lolbertarians hate it because they think it means some kind of illuminati NWO bullshit even though it has actually eroded state power more than anything and turned corporations into these behemoths that transcend national boundaries and possess GDPs greater than medium sized countries.

Isn't the contemporary usage of "globalism" as a political term rooted in the pamphlets of the John Birch Society and similar fringe Cold War-era think tanks? Those were the guys who thought the UN was a Communist front and that the UNESCO was part of a global conspiracy, that Deus Ex-tier kinda shit.

So basically in American right-wing parlance "globalism" means "the act of taking part in supra-national organizations of an alleged socialistic nature". People like Zyklon Ben see protectionism as a way to protect capitalism from the onslaught of foreign regulators.

It is precisely that.

To make fun of people against it and put it as a non-problem.

He is right, and they have been pushing no-border ideas within left-wing parties to make them push for it.

The neocon capitalsts always did also.

I wasn't putting it as a non-problem
It's just that the right believes it is an actual goal of globalism to destroy the white race, while in reality porky just don't care either way.

i love globalism

So basically global capitalism?

thats just how we do things here

Can you people explain to me how libertarianism was started by the left wing?

Wikipedia says the right and left share a common heritage.

For libertarian philosopher Roderick T. Long, both libertarian socialists and libertarian capitalists "share a common—or at least an overlapping intellectual ancestry—… both claim the seventeenth century English Levellers and the eighteenth century French encyclopedists among their ideological forbears; and (also)… usually share an admiration for Thomas Jefferson[163][164][165] and Thomas Paine".

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarianism

read the etymology section of the wiki

It wasn't until Rothbard and other ancap autists came along and started memeing the idea that private property was essential to freedom that libertarianism took on a right wing connotation.

The words origins had nothing to do with politics, though.

If we were to be honest, then the left and the right appropriated this term for politics.


Also I still maintain that libertarian was a shared word not belonging to the left or the right when it came to be used for politics as you have already posted.

So if anyone has the right to bitch it is people who argue for free will.

That is the Holla Forumsack minority

Ancaps and neocon right wingers are the ones pushing for it because muh free flow of slave labour


Yes
