Oh ya, the right famously doesn’t point fingers at every point in time, while calling to kill left leaning people.

No, not really, I mean some tankies out there are like that, but then again if your logic is on the level of tankies you’re most likely wrong. A right wing shooter killed Kirk, that’s just a fact.
orrk@lemmy.worldtoAMUSING, INTERESTING, OUTRAGEOUS, or PROFOUND@lemmy.world•Might as well say it out loud.English7·5 days agoWhat Daryl Davis does might work if you are talking about a very small group, but by the time it reaches percentage points of the population that method no longer works as the societal support structure grows from these vial ideologies, the weaker an approach based on societal influence. Eventually the only option left is violence as you have two opposing societies and can no longer pull “radicals” out of their hatred.
Just like with the Fascists of the early 20th century, the only option left was to expunge these hateful societies.

Not to be that guy, but you can very well be a leftist, hell even a full on communist, and be reformist, you don’t need to pull a Robespierre (ironically a Liberal btw) LARP to change the world.
Also, dual power, what a fever dream, do you really think that any sovereign entity is going to allow an alternate sovereign entity to exist within the same space? That so absurd you may as well start believing in the Libertarian “subscription governments” because essentially it’s the same thing. Either you reform the current system into Socialism, or you roll the dice and pull a revolution, problem is, that no one knows exactly who will come out on top during those.
Guns are in fact the only method to achieve revolution. A General strike/targeted boycott, etc… are reformist (and yes leftists can be reformist as well), AND they also tend to ignore the material reality if you try and use them as a revolutionary tool.

In reality, what 4chan and kiwi farms are upset about is either instituting the UK laws, or being cut off from the UK users, who still are a decent chunk of the English-speaking world along with it setting a president that nations can enforce their own laws in their own countries when it comes to the internet

And North Korea calls its self democratic. Yet we don’t call it a democracy. No, we define these categories by what they are/do/believe in/etc… and like it or not, Ayn Rand’s Objectivism is 100% a component of libertarian ideology, Ayn Rand’s beliefs are very much a core component of Libertarianism, and i’m sorry to inform you that many on that list of yours ARE libertarians, such as Milei. In the same way the Marx&Hegel were a cornerstone of communism.
But you are correct about Zelenskyy, he is not libertarian.
Bullshit. You might also want to think who’s “we” and what externalia does giving that “we” an ability to “put limits on these things” possess.
Standard Libertarian response that basically ignores the existence of anything outside the individual
Also, from the person who you believe isn’t a Libertarian: The source of the government’s authority is “the consent of the governed.” This means that the government is not the ruler, but the servant or agent of the citizens; it means that the government as such has no rights except the rights delegated to it by the citizens for a specific purpose. -Ayn Rand, Galt’s Speech.
A government is large scale organized violence and warlords. Spoken just like Rand herself! “Only a government holds that power. The nature of governmental action is: coercive action. The nature of political power is: the power to force obedience under threat of physical injury—the threat of property expropriation, imprisonment, or death.” The Virtue of Selfishness “The Nature of Government,” The Virtue of Selfishness, again Ayn Rand.

orrk@lemmy.worldto Intel@lemmy.zip•White House confirms talks to acquire 10% stake in Intel — 'We should get an equity stake for our money'English1·28 days agoThat is what fascism is or wants to do
No, it isn’t, in fascism corporations are nothing but the organizational structures for the members of the state to direct control.
The corporation is subservient to the ruling authoritarian, nothing more, any existence outside the totalitarian power structure is negated.
orrk@lemmy.worldto Intel@lemmy.zip•White House confirms talks to acquire 10% stake in Intel — 'We should get an equity stake for our money'English12·29 days agoConsidering you made the claim of “Fascism is the merging of the state and corporate power”, I highly doubt you have actually read much about fascism, especially when the term for that is “corporatism”.
And I would argue, if you claim that “Everything within the state” backs up your claim, demonstrates how little you actually understand of fascism and totalitarian constructs.
My point stands, you might wanna fact check yourself, because you clearly need to brush up on your poli-sci.
Dude, they fucking fantasize about offing Greta, it’s not even a rare thing amung these people
