jrodefeld posted:What?! Are you kidding me? So education simply doesn't exist without the State? This is such a laughable statement and is clearly disproven simply by an examination of history. Hell, even recent history. Education was a local institution until the late 20th century. Carter introduced the Department of Education in 1979 and educational standards have declined since. The State has no interest in providing education. Its goal is to indoctrinate children into believing in the necessity and legitimacy of an institution of centralized power. We already know you're rather ignorant of history, so how about you look up the Prussian education system. The State does have an incontrovertible interest in providing education, and to assert otherwise is to deny reality. Jesus, you're one stupid fucker.

jrodefeld posted:I consider Argumentation Ethics to be persuasive but I recognize that not everyone agrees. There are plenty of arguments against it from within libertarian circles as well. I don't want to get sidetracked into a discussion of Argumentation Ethics right now. I might come back to that point though. A different libertarian poster brought up Argumentation Ethics before, and I'm going to again state that only a minority of Libertarians find AE at all persuasive, never mind the general population. Even people who actually do philosophy generally think it's weak poo poo. If you want to use Argumentation Ethics, by all means shoot yourself in the leg.
