     > It’s just rich white guys that don’t want to be told what to do

     The subtext that non-whites are naturally subservient is...weird.

     @realcaseyrollins the WEF basically declared war on libertarians recently though so its kind of amusing timing for him to say that

     @incognitum idk i thought reason was a stupid website when they said TPP was good actually.
     
     i came at libertarianism from ron paul and heinlein angles and was quite unhappy that apparently a libertarian now means corporate cocksucker.
     
     i gave up last year now people say i'm an egoist or ancap or whatever and its just like :youmusip:

     He was always a Cato-esque, "corporate tax rates *should* be 3% lower, but let's not do anything 'radical' that might actually reduce the size and scope of the state!" kind of libertarian, but he went off the deep end over covid.

     He's just saying out loud now what Reason has been thinking.

     @incognitum its a flavor of anarchism, popularized around max stirner and a few others.

     I'm not familiar with "egoist". Is that similar to "post-libertarian" like e.g., Pete Quinones?

     @subtype @incognitum i'm really big on individual liberty and hoarding technology. don't really like being told what to do or being weighed down by stupids. :blobmojidrool:
