Yes. Didn't Max write a piece on "deep anarchy" where he
discussed <br>
capitalism & globalism?</blockquote><br>
Yes, but it is transhumanist in scope.<br><br>
<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Max also had some down-right

"libertarian" (a label Max does not embrace, of course) and
<br>
less-than-humane, but I think his detractors don't think very
efficiently.</blockquote><br>
Well Max always has something brilliant to say :-) And yes, some
detractors do find his ideas political rather than philosophical.
And right again, Max is not a libertarian, nor is Extropy. <br><br>
