The Buck Angel whitewashing section with the you belong on kiwifarms if you look into him outing Lana Wachowski for profit

Or where it turns out she name searched herself on on an alt account, or signed out, or had someone else name search her for her, so she could post barely concealed screenshots of tweets from someone who blocked her years ago to lump that person in with her harassers to her millions of viewers?

Bernie is probably the most ERA friendly candidate, yet he has some rabid haters on that site. Very strange.

Why would a forum of consumer, corporate dicksuckers go with bernie over the other safe dem options of more of the same old man and more of the same token woman

this is a forum birthed because they couldn't post about hillary clinton enough

goddammit just have Warren be your VP
That would be the worst answer to this problem.
why
Because if the concern is age and health, you'd ideally pair the candidate with someone young. Warren is younger than Bernie, but not by that much.

Why is it that PoliGAF very clearly posts a thread with the intention of gathering 3/4 dudes and shoutdown the thread with endless replies and concern trolls?

Because the new GM approves of this behavior and the owner who nobody can remember or even knows the username of also did.

They literally once complained to a NeoGAF.com moderator because I kept fucking it up by going in their bait threads and derailing them when they'd bitch about them in the PoliGAF threads. (For the record, I don't think Metaphoreus was doing it intentionally until later on.)

benjipwns · « **Reply #8647 on:** January 06, 2020, 10:04:14 PM »

I want to note that the forwarded complaints did not seem to indicate the PoliGAFfers grasped it, but the moderator who warned me quite clearly recognized it as he suggested that "technically it very much is trolling."

I always thought it was funny when one of the Day Democrats would stay up late, sometimes drunk, and be utterly baffled by our discussing ideological shit and making obscure jokes and global references and start trying to argue seriously with everyone about the state when it was long past a meme thing even with me around at that point.

I distinctly remember one time where we wound up discussing Vietnam for some reason for hours and all the regulars started coming on and complaining about it and started posting the same polls over and over "did you guys see this!" for Senate races that were like 18 months out (and the Dems all lost) and were all upset about something McConnell said or whatever.

I was used to him and some others because they were NBA-GAF people first and acted the same exact way in there. On a better note for example, Black Mamba was one of the few who had my back about stats in NBA-GAF before it got killed, then he came back and stayed in PoliGAF as a policy pundit. Real shame about the Lakers fan thing though.

I tended to not care for people who wanted to control the discussion, for some reason I think of NYCMetsfan/APKMetsfan as like that, though it might have just been early on, usually people who were new tried to do that kind of thing.

Coincidentally, I had been scrolling past B-Dubs posts for ages, dude used to always be near the top of the thread ranking and almost none of it was worth reading.

Although I didn't particularly mind him in general, on a personal level, I didn't care for The Technomancer (?) constantly demanding I explain how I would plan a worldwide anarchic system that operated as a global state and even more so in that regard his incessant disbelief that I actually am a pacifist or even an anarchist. It was more that he'd bring this up all the time, in threads/discussions not associated with it. And it seemed solely because my answers didn't convince him, which like, your answers about the great uses of violence don't convince me either breh. And then stuff like when someone would ask something minor like what books I'd read as anarchist "primers" because they were interested in exploring it (and I even only had one "libertarian" book on the list, Kropotkin had two spots) he still used it as an opportunity to restart this argument and got accusatory when I was like "let's not do this."

Maybe I was just reading him wrong and taking it way too seriously. I once read ToxicAdam totally wrong over a decade ago too.

PoliGAF used to be more active (about things that weren't polls/elections) and more diverse in general, then after the 2012 election it sorta died off outside of the type that run PoliEra now and there was a gap that weirdos like me and foreign friends filled.

Before it got massacred I literally only went on NeoGAF.com for a number of years for NBA-GAF. (And I guess seeing what the popular threads/news on gaming-side were.) Then it was just King Of the Hill/cooking reality show threads. I have no idea why I ever wound up running with Late Night PoliGAF.

I was already over here for all my most important needs. Eventually we got likes too.

That pretty much puts an end to it. At some point some one some where will want some thing that another person has and use violence to try to take it. Without some system of laws in place there's nothing to stop that, and any system of laws will require an amount of violence for enforcement.

But his argument appears to begin and end at non-violence as a moral standpoint, to which I say: "ok great, then what?"

Edit: is the difference between libertarianism and anarcho-capitalists just courts?

Libertarians accept the state and some form of government with all the implied powers. They just want it highly limited in some manner. Some libertarians are broad enough to include something like an UBI, while others literally mean "night watchman state" to some level. There was a guy on reason.com years ago who advocated for a state that solely ran lighthouses. That was it. He could not see how anything but a government could run lighthouses. Everything else should be privatized.

edit: I should note, that this is American libertarians. It's really just a more extreme edge of liberalism.

Probably should fuck up ~~Lassiez Fa~~ Wank Dad with this AMA type thing instead of here but just to answer the other half of the question.

I don't accept the state's claim to the legitimate monopoly on the use of violence. I'm not an anarcho-capitalist because I don't believe capitalism is inherently good or necessary. I think it's rather natural in many aspects and I will admit to not seeing many better options on the table until scarcity fades, but I wouldn't want it imposed and have no opposition to people forming say, communist collectives if they aren't forcing people into it, anarcho-capitalists don't seem to like this and will suggest wars over it sometimes.

Another thing is most popular anarcho-capitalists and their followers are all about protecting and monopolizing all things IP and well...
