I think that's because her thoughts on Christianity basically amount to "make them suffer and die because they're filthy and worthless altruists who should all suck off a shotgun." Or thereabouts.

That's more or less her thoughts on anyone/thing that doesn't fall within the rather narrow bounds of "admirable serial killer superman traits I admire."

How is Libertopia not a videogame yet? Or is it Minecraft?

It hasn't been that long since Bioshock came out, man.

I agree. I'm actually more interested in how he manages to justify DRO stuff. I mean, he can just deny the existence of medical statistics he doesn't agree with, but I'm genially curious how the gently caress every DRO proposal isn't straight out of 1984.

You must be new to Jrod threads. He's notorious for not addressing, well, anything that seriously challenges his feverish delusions. At most you'll get a one-two line handwave about how it either doesn't matter or never would happen in the best of all possible worlds.

We scared him off too completely. He ain't comin' back.

He asked for a dogpile, received one, and then refused to ride it out.

Frankly, as a patronage-dispensing goon, I'm highly disappointed by his service and his lack of courage.

Normally this sort of hit to his reputation would ruin him, but due to State interference in the marketplace (ie: bannings) he's got an unnatural monopoly on libertarian shitposting these days.

Slightly more seriously, I'd not write him off yet. In all previous iterations of this very thread (of which he's posted several over the years), he gets progressively inconsistent in his replies as the evidence of his own shitheadedness piles up, but rarely stops posting altogether until a mod finally steps on him.

Aw man, all that and nothing from Jrod, just some lightweight spouting the usual drivel. Time was lolbs could be counted on to at least post walls of text defending their terrible ideas.

As I said I'm not terribly well read. Who is this gentleman? He sounds positively delightful. "I'd rather be crippled for life and unable to walk than pay a dime in taxes."

He's Murray "We will never be truly free until there is a thriving market in children" Rothbard.

What prompted the switch on this forum from the posters being mostly unabashed libertarians to being mostly socialist? I'm aware that it's a thing that happened but I never knew why or what the instigating events were.

For one thing, the insufferable smugness of the puppytar brigade threatened to collapse in on itself at about the same time Ron Paul was becoming a thing, and when LF came along they could not resist that siren's song and most ended up in there to defend the good doctor, where they got more or less got destroyed/run off/banned.

It's really convenient rhetorically though, because the state exists and pervades every aspect of our lives so you can blame anything and everything on the state. 'State' is to libertarians as 'Obama' is to teabaggers.

Hell, there's more than a little bleed-over between the two groups as it is. Why no, I'm not just looking for any excuse to repost this LF-era classic:

Goatstein posted:

King Hussein Obama I, flanked by his bodyguards, stepped out of his blinged Limoscalade and marched up the gold-lined marble steps of Washington Palace. It should have been a glorious day, yet under his heavy yet exquisite crown of carved human fetus-ivory his brow was ridged deeply as he silently brooded. Still, his posse, boomboxes on their shoulders, dance-walked up the steps, chains and gats jangling over the din as they grabbed their crotches.

As his trusted associates T-Von and Mook-Mook the Bushman pushed open the grand organic farm-grown cruelty-free redwood doors paid for by his 95% tax rate, he stepped into the antechamber of the gold-domed palace. Outside, ShariaVentalism reigned, but in here his word was law, and all his white teen sex slaves cowered before his glare more than even the hemp whips of their latte-drinking tweeded atheist masters.

He walked down the hallway toward his office and a prisoner in chains passed before him, lead by two turban-wearing Mexicans. He spotted the King and began shouting curses.

"You loving fascist! I knew it! I knew it! I told them, but they wouldn't listen, that your health care platform was a slippery slope to all this! You won't get away with this! The will of the Free Market will not be denied!"
"Seelenceo een the prezence of the Keeng, preesoner!"

King Obama spotted a chance to improve his ill mood.

"Bring him here. Good. Give me his file." The king looked over the prisoner's dossier. A long list of crimes against the state, and a repeat offender.
"You'll never get away with this! Never!"
"Hush now, Mr. Jack. We have ways of dealing with unruly sorts such as yourself."
"Praise be to Allah, seenyor."
"Peh! I spit at your torture! The Free Market gives me strength!"
"Oh, no, not anything as gauche as that."

The King grabbed a syringe from the outstretched hand of one of his nearby breakdancing bodyguards, and plunged it into the man's helpless neck.

"Now you are immune to rubella."

Kyle's lingering, echoing screams of tormented horror brought a slight smile like a crack in Obama's stony brown face as he walked into his lavish velvet-lined office and shut the door behind him. He motioned for his bodyguards to leave the room, and he addressed the giant screens hanging over his desk.

"Screen one on. Connect to Emperor bin Laden of Eurabia. Screen two: Hugo Chavez of the U.S.S.A.R.. Screen three: The High Elder of Zion."

The three figures appeared live via satelite.

"Gentlemen," began Obama darkly, "it's time to have...a conversation."

Context for those not about : Kylejack was, at the time, one of the libertarian-Paulshevik stalwarts, though I believe he's since become more reasonable.

Many D&D nerds have devoted absurd amounts of time to that exact thing, though.

Keep that innocence, friend. Never go to the Wizards of the Coast forums, Giant in the Playground forums, /tg/, or look up what FATAL is.

Oh lord, FATAL. That's the one with the "roll-for-anal-circumference" table, right?
