[extropy-chat] Bluff and the Darwin award

[Ned Late]

You're undoubtedly correct, you look at the history of totalitarian governments to see they caused far more destruction and evil than the most authoritarian republics & democracies.
  It is only 'status-quo' rightwing libertarians who turn me off libertarianism. If for nothing aside from entertainment, I would prefer wild but colorful libertarian radicals to old fashioned conservative libertarians who appear to differ little from republicans.


          The good thing about libertarians is that their system would limit their agenda and abuses to what they could honestly acquire, while with authoritarian government the power to coerce is accumulated into one place, and the most abusive and agenda-driven are drawn to it and use it to cause far more damage than private activity ever has.
