Gently push our Libertarian / Minarchist friends over the fence
I attended Anarchopulco this year in 2017, an amazing gathering of Anarchists from all around the world. It is now a month later and the effects of the red pill that I took way back in 2013 are just starting to hit me in full force, thanks in part, I believe to this conference. Although the message of zero government is clear, I saw a lot of libertarians, minarchists, and right wingers dabbling with thought of 100% freedom. Because the advances in the police state have gotten so bad in the last few years, I feel that it is of the upmost urgency to gently push these people on the fence over to the side of freedom. Let it be known right here and now that the bar has been raised, the sense of urgency is now higher. Understand that this is not an attempt to create the phony “you are with us or against us” racket that the political clowns use, but everyone should be on the same page. After all this should be easy as I have heard anarchists say “the difference between an anarchist and a libertarian is 6 months and a few good books.” At the conference I heard Adam Kokesh ask Lauren Sothern, conservative leaning freedom goddess who has slain (verbally) feminist scum and orc, what legitimacy she still sees in government? A noble attempt to tip her over the fence. Her response will be detailed in #2.
Make 100 year plans
While listening to an interview with Clif High (I believe), I heard him speak about the elite’s planning process. He said that the globalists and powerful elite plan in 100 year increments! We can certainly see their big picture plans playing out in Agenda 21 and the move towards a cashless society. When trying to combat this, it seems reasonable to believe that a 100 year anarchist plan, without being too restrictive, should be considered. This is why I bring up Lauren’s response to the question posed by Adam. Her response was something along the lines of “I would like to see zero government, but I don’t think that is going to happen in my lifetime.” With all respect due to Lauren Sothern, and I am only singling this one conversation out as an example of an overarching idea that I hear from the minarchist camp; for those that internalize that belief, they continue to work within the system that is clearly the bane of our existence. It seem counterproductive. Why can’t there be no government in 100 years? I ask because I am sure, that those in the ruling class clearly did not wake up one morning and say: “I would like to rule billions of people, but I don’t think that is going to happen in my lifetime, so I won’t try.” The reason for the elite’s success thus far is their sense of urgency.
Blow up each other’s spot
Blowing up people’s spot is a slang term used to describe the action of drawing attention to someone. Much the same way we should within our Anarchist network. Share and spread the message of someone you think is doing good work. Expanding the network is important as more people wake up, and if there is no network to communicate volunteerism, many might actually fall back asleep or see a different flavor of authoritarianism. I have seen for example, antichrists who are designing an app created for the purposes of finding other anarchists in the area. Right now Anarchy is a lonely existence, but we all know that this really shouldn’t be the case, since most are already anarchist and don’t even know it. That being said, anarchist video views are unacceptably low. An effort must be made to spread and contribute
Stop the petty gossip
It happens from time to time when a large group comes together that petty gossips gets in the way and ruins the experience or the cause. It has come to my attention that there is still plenty of this going on within the community that attended Anarchopulco several weeks after the event. It needs to stop. It’s not endearing nor a great representation of how volunteerism works.
Stop the self-censorship around friends and family
You have the moral high ground for god sake, how can one be afraid of defending the non-aggression principle. You know already how bad these people are at articulating themselves and their moral beliefs and political views. The reason most of them are still statist is not because the statist argument is compelling, it is because no one has challenged them. This was true for me, as I am sure it was for a lot of anarchists before they had the non-aggression principle explained to them. Before arriving at the conclusion of no government, I went through the entirety of the political spectrum as I am learning most Anarchists do. Starting with Liberalism and ending with Minarchism; because there was something about each that just didn’t sit right with me. Go directly for the kill, like a majestic lion praying on a gazelle and emphasize those arguments that are weak. You can hear it in their tone of voice when it weavers “Mmmmore regulation… Tttttttax the rich… Wwwwwwe need to gget the Rrrright people in there…” After a few full hearted attempts, some serious consideration must be made about thinning the friends list. Ostracization of friends and family members is not a comfortable topic, but your life is no longer about comfort after taking the red pill. As an economist, weighing the costs and rewards of your relationships is something that has been recommended by self-help successes and motivational speakers many times over. Detrimental to your growth are these people, but this is not something that needs repeating, you already know. We must be the change we want to see in the world and create the systems that will replace the old. While you might not decide to cut these people off completely, they later might bask in awe of you as you go about spreading the message. As you succeed they will no longer be able to do anything other than watch you, like the overnight success of a brand new start-up company who’s shares take off in price. And they will be left wondering why they didn’t get the message when you brought it up the first time. This will come as freedom gains in popularity. Many, including Larken Rose have told stories of statists who have come back to him years later after pondering the thought.
Learn about Evil
A proper understanding about what Anarchy is fighting against is important to grasp. It is not the average person on the street (whom has never given a second thought about the police state) that is the enemy. The enemy is Evil. The other day George W. Bush was on the Jimmy Kimmel Show. Keep in mind that Jimmy Kimmel has spent the last election cycle criticizing the Republican candidate who everyone is convinced is pure evil. The entire 20 minutes was full of jokes being made about the atrocities against the human race that he and his administration perpetrated. They joked about the WMD lie, Cheney shooting someone in the face, and a book of Bush’s gross and insulting artwork in which he painted Iraq war veterans. It is almost as if these liberal media “prestitutes” forgot about these things in the last 8 years. People ate this interview up. It’s tempting to laugh after all this time, but Evil is very charming. In fact there are several key consistencies in every definition I have researched on Evil. As I write this, I am half way through “Dispelling Wetiko” by Paul Levy. They connections are being made in my mind as to all the previous people I have met in my life who are sick with a disease that I have heard called many things such as: Diabolical Narcissism, Malignant Egophrenia, Wetiko…. This is what Anarchists are fighting. Detailing what this term means is important for the purpose of extracting the poison of Authoritarianism from our society. I am sure we are all convinced that core issues of morality cannot be solved simply with law.
Stop wasting time (generation Z is ours)
According to some reports, Generation Z is going to be the most conservative we have seen in years. And who can blame them? With cultural Marxists, social justice warriors, and freedom haters running around, certainly Liberalism has become a dirty word. But just like the swastika used to be a symbol for peace, and the rainbow was not a symbol for being gay, people have been hijacking symbols and words for a long time. Even Donald Trump protesters who damage property and burn cars and buildings have been labeled “Anarchists” by the fake news-mainstream media. When in reality these are DEMOCRATS. They have then the word “liberal” from us, and now are attempting to do the same for “Anarchist.” The term “liberal” used to have a connotation similar to how we view libertarian today. More freedom, anti-war, free market capitalism, etc. were things that one could attribute to the term “liberal.” Liberal as defined here I think will be a better description of generation Z. That is why I do not that this generation will materialize as conservative. This is the reason for the sense of urgency for this article. Without proper definition of these terms and a better frame of what the non-aggression principle is, we may lose this generation to the statist. But I have my doubts whether the government can succeed in duping another generation into authoritarian control in the age of the internet. Generation Z is ours, they are Anarchists.
