Hi there, it seems like we have some things in common :) I too am a libertarian leftist and a vegan for ethical and environmental reasons. I advocate the legalisation of cannabis, psilocybin, LSD and other substances with medicinal properties. All other substances should at least be decriminalised (I live in Sweden where legalisation is still very much a tabu).
But I'm sort of wondering what you mean by "social justice is cancer". Please enlighten me on that one if you will.
I've also just posted my intro post, so you're welcome to check it out :)
I guess I could rephrase that. The way it currently exists in the US and Canada is pushing for equal outcome or preferential treatment of certain groups of people. There is nothing wrong with wanting equal opportunity for all peoples, but when being "colorblind" is racist and treating one group differently based on race is racist there is a problem. I must admit that I do not follow European politics nearly as in depth as I follow North American politics, but there is definitely a mainstream endorsement of identity politics where I'm from. I believe we should see all peoples as individuals first, but the current political climate would rather see people as groups and legislate based on that.
Thank you clarifying that. I agree that we should see and treat all people as individuals. However for as long as we live in societies that by default favour a certain group of people and discriminate against others we must also take those unjust power structures into account if we want to create a truly egalitarian and just society.
