what a journey it has been

You must be really gullible to opinions
i like the bird
>>35723117
taxation isn't "basically" slavery taxation IS slavery
tl;dr: "I'm a retard and I always will be."
anarcho-monarchism is the true redpill
>>35723267
explain?
is that like feudal japan or something where the monarch exists but has no power
>>35723117
>i have always been retarded and have no idea how the world works
>>35723247
No it isn't. Slavery is owning human beings. Taxation is redistrubution of wealth.
Taxes make me mad
FYI: Left Libertariansim doesn't exist

This.

Yes. Tell me more.

No, slavery is owning someone else's labor. You could own humans but if you don't make them work they are just prisoners.
>>35724208
>Slavery is, in the strictest sense of the term, any system in which principles of property law are applied to people, allowing individuals to own, buy and sell other individuals, as a de jure form of property

Thunderf00t is a massive autist and narcissist so I can see it
>>35723117
Libertarian to social democrat. Economy of scale and human decency won me over.
haha my political beliefs make me better than you
>>35723117
I went from libertian -> conservative -> socially conservative and economically liberal.
the tl;dr version I give to people when they ask what the hell that means is:
>I think abortion should not be legal but the government should tax the wealthy enough to provide childcare services and goods or adoptive care for all people at no cost to the individual family having the child or seeking to adopt it out.
>>35724391
>I think abortion should not be legal
Why not?
>>35724391
>forcing unwanted children to be born
does that make you feel... somehow more morally correct than saving that child from suffering?
>>35723305
Anarcho-Monarchism is the best form of government. Really, it is.
Basically you abolish the government and you give the most liked and trusted person in the nation a sceptre, crown, robe, and a really big gun. Everyone else can pretty much do whatever they want and should probably buy guns too. The King or Queen's only real job would be to go around the nation and, because they're so well liked, rally up citizens to go out and raid anyone trying to start up a new government.
Of Course England would have the queen, America would have Tom Hanks, and so on and so on. If you want to go further, Anarcho-Nazism, a similar system in which a zombified Hitler would forever lead the world, rooting out jews, gypsies, non-whites, and pro-government statists who tell people what to do.
This is my ideology, an Individual Anarchy vouching for Electoral Monarchy with some Ethnic Cleansing thrown in, and I personally ask you to respect it.

I haven't been able to substantially conclude that abortion isn't murder, and neither has anyone else I've talked to seriously about it. Nothing I've read has made it unambiguously clear and I think it's best to veer on the side of safety here, which is not potentially murdering humans.
>>35724475
I feel like you forgot to finish reading the post. I want childcare and adoptive services and goods to be available at no cost to the family. Having to physically give birth to a human you don't want sucks, but the childcare they would receive with or without you should be such that you don't have to keep them for them to be cared for.
desu the closest label I could find for my position is probably "politically Christian/Catholic."
>>35724567
1) that requires more than taxation. if foster care system was reformed to be all cushy and nice, i would be inclined to agree.
2) because 1 is not a reality, you basically cannot guarantee that children can be wanted. Even if parents have the money to care for them, if they are not wanted, they will still suffer. If no one wants to adopt them (birth defects, ugly, wrong race, all sorts of reasons why some kids are more desirable than others), they are thrown into shitty foster care system which ends up raising a lot of criminals.
>>35724621
If it requires more than taxation then I think more should be done.
>>35724567
>I haven't been able to substantially conclude that abortion isn't murder
How about the fact that a fetus is not and have never at any point been conscious, and therefore cannot be considered a person.
>>35724099
That's quite representative. I have improved it,
>>35724673
I don't think that being conscious or unconscious at a point in time is what makes a thing a human.
>>35724698
It's not conscious or not.
It's that a fetus has 0% chance of being conscious until the very late stages of pregnancy (and at that point, any abortions done are due to serious medical problems and not just "i don't want this baby").
I've seen rebuttals such as
>so you think it's okay to kill someone if they're in a coma?
or
>It's okay to kill someone when they're knocked out?
which is not at all what that anon is trying to say. Someone brain-dead, someone in a coma, and someone who is knocked out or asleep has had a consciousness at some point. That makes them a person.
A fetus has never had a consciousness, and will not until the very late stages of pregnancy.
>>35724753
I'm not actually interested in arguing about it on 4chan, sorry.
>>35724698
>I don't think that being conscious or unconscious at a point in time is what makes a thing a human.
but it is. Of course biologically you could classify a fetus as belonging to our species, but a fetus is not a person of its own and therefore you cannot murder a fetus.
>>35724391
I'm literally your exact opposite. Abortion and LGB rights need to be a thing but taxation is theft. If you can't afford a child I wholeheartedly think you should even be forced to have an abortion as the baby would likely just be another parasite on our already overloaded "welfare" (gimme-dat's) system.
>>35724782
That's okay, it's fine if you disagree. It was a statement intended to give an example of a broader political position that would be considered both "socially conservative" and "economically liberal," not the only socio-economic opinion I have.

This Bird was way too strong back then
I was alt-right for all of a year but then unlike /pol/ I managed to grow out of being an edgy teenager.
>>35723117
what a ride its been for me too, i went from being a moderate conservative, to a libertarian, back to a moderate conservative
>>35723117
Social democrat-> socialist-> communist->don't give a shit
I used to be passionate about politics, but then I grow up and fell for the nihilistic meme
