Since you're just going to strawman any answers no matter what, just post whatever long, incoherent rant you have waiting in the wings now and save everyone the time.

You have half a dozen standing offers for debate, all of which you're far too cowardly to accept.

jrodefeld posted:I am interested to know where each of you stand regarding the 2016 Presidential candidates. Even if you live outside of the United States, I'd like to know who you agree with most and who you'd vote for IF you lived in the United States. If I had to guess, I'd suspect that most of you are Bernie Sanders supporters. But, will you be willing to vote for Hillary Clinton in the general election? I mean, as a Rawlsian Social Democrat, I'm inclined to support the Rawlsian Social Democrat in the race. But yes, I'd support Hillary Clinton in the general against Trump. Granted, I'd support George Clinton in the general against Trump, but I actually don't have any particular anti-Hillary sympathies beyond thinking she's a terrible campaigner and could stand to be pulled to the left on economics more. quote:I shouldn't have to tell you that I will not vote for Trump or Hillary no matter what. And don't get me started on how asinine the so-called libertarians who are supporting Trump for President are. The notion that Trump would be quantifiable better as president that Clinton is un-proven and un-knowable. A Trump campaign promise is even more worthless than the average politician's campaign promises given how schizophrenic his positions have been. Your non-support of Trump actually doesn't go without saying given the things you've endorsed in the past, but good on you buddy.  quote:I am carefully looking at the Libertarian Party nomination this cycle. I haven't yet decided if I will vote, but if I do it will almost certainly be for the Libertarian Party nominee. None of the candidates running for that nomination are close to ideal in my eyes, but my preference would be, from best to worst: 1. John Mcafee, 2. Austin Petersen, 3. Gary Johnson. I would very much like to hear about your reasons for supporting McAfee! Like, specifically, issues-wise. I can go anywhere else in D&D or YCS to hear people supporting Sanders or Clinton or Trump, but you're bringing a... distinctly unique take on this. quote:I think there has never been a better time for a third party candidate to break through than this season. Hillary and Trump are two of the most hated candidates in modern political history. There will be millions of angry conservatives who hate Trump and millions of Bernie supporters who hate Hillary. You're going to be disappointed here though. Sanderistas aren't going to jump ship any harder than the PUMAs did in '08. The GOP is less certain, but who the gently caress knows what's going to happen there anymore.

jrodefeld posted:I voted for Gary Johnson in 2012 and I personally like him. He's a good fellow and an honest man. The problem is his delivery is incredibly weak. He doesn't seem like he prepares that well for debates and he doesn't seem that well-read about libertarianism in general. John McAfee is the closest to an anarchist and he has a certain gravitas to his delivery which is why I like him. He is a little crazy, but crazy in a good way. He is the more revolutionary and controversial candidate which, in an election where loud-mouth Donald Trump won the GOP nomination, doesn't seem to be a downside. Austin Petersen, on the other hand, is much more pragmatic. He is more knowledgeable about libertarianism than is Johnson and has a polished delivery, but he is very young which can make him seem inexperienced. He is less radical than McAfee but he could peel away quite a few conservatives who hate Trump but are scared away by McAfee and are hesitant about Johnson's more liberal positions. So what do you think of the fact that Johnson has an incredibly strong right-wing record? Please, read this article and give your thoughts, since that's what you always demand we do. And to answer your question: Clinton. Sanders has no track record of actually getting things done and he would have fallen apart in the primaries. Clinton may be a crappy campaigner, but she has an exceptional track record in politics, all of the "moral scandal" issues are blown immensely out of proportion. Also McAfee, a little crazy? Seriously? He's nuts.

Anyone want to do a round of "Jrod's greatest hits" before this thread peters out for good? I'll start with that time he got so convinced that mercury-amalgam fillings were causing his chronic lyme disease that he paid to have them drilled out, thus exponentially increasing his mercury exposure, and then tried to convince us all that this was an example of how rational individuals could plan out and manage their own health care without the evil intrusion of state regulatory bodies.

GreyjoyBastard posted:Sounds to me like you're anti-JFK and possibly a commie. I see how you might misconceive my earlier post, and I apologize. Dr. Feelgood prescribed JFK amphetamine, to be administered intravenously, and gave him the shots himself. That's obviously totally fine. If a doctor prescribed Desoxyn for our next president, I would naturally suspend all judgment. Even so, I'm a bit iffy on our president snorting research chemicals off of the desk in the Oval Office like Scarface.

How do bans work? Can you still view the forums like a user with under probation, or are you demoted to non-member and can only see things when the paywall allows? I'm worried he won't see our eulogies.

Nevvy Z posted:I enjoyed reading this thread. I think my favorite part was when he got super buddy buddy at someone with a baby avatar who absolutely hated his guts. That was me! Back in the property rights thread. Me posted:Yeah, it's kind of sad to see someone so tied to holding the same positions and being Right about Everything Forever. The thought of having the same opinions I had as a teenager is loving terrifying to me. I'm actually going through somewhat of a philosophical meltdown exploratory period right now, due in some small part to the better-quality posts in this thread introducing me to things I hadn't considered before. It's actually part of why I'm curious to hear from honest libertarians. I want to find the strongest arguments from each political tradition and see what I make of them, and what they make of each other. I'm already trying to reconcile ideas I agree with from the liberal, socialist, and anarchist traditions, why not add more to the mix? But I genuinely can't find libertarian thinkers beyond Nozick who aren't absolutely vile, and I have trouble finding any conservative philosophers at all (Burke? Maybe?). jrodefeld posted:I don't think it's true that I haven't admitted that I've been wrong at times in the past and I don't have any aversion to doing so in the future. And let me add that I do appreciate your post because I think you've got a respectful tone and are interested in a respectful discussion. Me posted:Motherfucker I have been calling you a motherfucker for the past year and a god damned half, I'm the dude you literally just flipped out at for calling you a white supremacist, step right the gently caress off with that "respectful tone" poo poo. I am interested in respectful discussion, but you are not capable of it. You have long since lost any benefit of the doubt, and you are rapidly destroying my ability to extend the benefit of the doubt to other libertarians. And then twerk bought me an avatar, the end.

This is probably the most long-winded pile of nonsense you could possibly write that is summed up best as "I said some things and I'm going to not be a baby about being banned by being a baby by bringing it up repeatedly. Also, I voted for Gary Johnson once. I think he's alright." Goodnight, sweet prince. May you, one day, be introduced to your libertarian paradise full of child slaves, pollution, and feudalism and may you, on that day, realize it's an awful world to live in.

I think my favorite part is that after all the shitposting he's done, his permaban seems to be over something he didn't do.quote:If you're going to threaten to rereg and chargeback next time you're banned, then we'll just make it so you can't rereg. Technically he didn't threaten this. He threatened to chargeback if he was banned this time and to never come back afterwards. I mean that is probably still a banable offense considering he's publicly stating he's going to commit very lovely fraud, but it is actually different from what he was banned for.
