You Don't Always Get What You Want In A Free Society
I had the pleasure to speak with Larken Rose ( @larkenrose ) this week to discuss how easy it is to fall for the rhetoric of statists and think that they are condoning freedom.
If they are statists, they aren't condoning freedom, as Larken Rose points out. They are just condoning their own freedom and the subjugation of others.
We spoke about the allegory of the "ring of power" in the Lord of the Rings and the stupidity of creating government and giving massive power to one individual and just hope he/she does not use it to completely destroy us all.
Larken went on to point out that in a free society (aka anarchy), that you don't always get what you want... but that is far better than everyone being enslaved in order for some people to get some of the things they want some of the time.
We also got into Charlottesville and commented on the Chris Cantwell fiasco... and Larken gave his opinion on Stefan Molyneux... one that many of Stefan's fans won't like to hear.
You can see it all here:
Larken Rose will be one of the keynote speakers at Anarchapulco 2018 coming up from February 15-18th, 2018 in Acapulco, Mexico. And, he'll be running his 2 day workshop, Candles in the Dark, before or after the event (to be decided).

Truth revealed on old tv show, people still ignorant...
flag for upvoting yourself. this 4 words are not 1.38usd worth in my view.
Flagged for flagging, you flagging flaggot!
just kidding I did not flag you.
It's the idea from game theory of the long term horizon. In the long run, cooperating with other agents is a way to ensure individual freedom.
From seeing the video once it sounded like larken compared Molyneux with a fascist. That's exaggerated in my view, especially as I don't see larken is closer to freedom rather then only complaining.
Steemians can you understand the harsh criticism? I still think that Molyneux offers still better interviews coverage than mainstream news channel.
Freedom is tolerant of all who do not coerse or agress against others.

Thanks for the post, jeff. It is quite an interesting time we live in.
Nothing is free, there's always a cost either paid in money (the most direct) or other forms like time and opportunities. I do appreciate to be able to
Can't argue with that period. You don't always get what you want but as long as you strive for better things in life, your chance of getting them will be higher comparing to those who never try. Opportunities are always abundant but learning to seize them timely is vitally critical.
