The oppressor-oppressed dynamic you keep hearing about is one big false dichotomy, black or white logical fallacy. Not only does it fail to take into account the multiple collectives a person could be apart of when it does not benefit its supporters, it also fails to take into account the decisions taken by individuals and their reasons behind said decisions, resorting to merely empirical data instead. Collectivism is cancer. image #Agorism #Agorist #AnCap #Libertarian #Antistate #Individualism #LogicalDeduction #apriori #SelfOwnership #Collectivism #Feminism #Woke #Wokeness #DEI #Diversity #Inclusion #Equity
Now that I think about it, I'm wondering if all this beef that Trump has towards Venezuela and Nigeria will be used to justify Modern Monetary Theory through a somewhat oil standard acting as a limit to preventing the U.S from becoming insolvent due to printing money like candy.

"Absent a perfect harmony of all interests, conflicts regarding scarce resources can only be avoided if all scarce resources are assigned as private, exclusive property to some specified individual or group of individuals. Only then can I act independently, with *my* own things, from you, with *your* own things, without you and me clashing." - Hans-Hermann Hoppe, ***Getting Libertarianism Right*** (2018) p. 76 #AnCap #AnarchoCapitalism #Libertarian #Libertarianism #Hoppe #Hoppean #Locke #Lockean #PrivateProperty #PropertyRights #PrivateOwnership #Ownership #SelfOwnership #Scarcity #Scarce #Conflict #Quotestr
When everyone has the same outcomes, it means there is no incentive to do certain occupations, stifling economic progress. This is why many socialist states such as the U.S.S.R and Cuba had to institute labor camps and other employment mandates at some point in their history.

This "climate change" crisis could easily be solved by revoking corporate subsidies and allowing private ownership of land, soil, and water. View quoted note →
"All *just* (lawful) property, then, goes back directly or indirectly, through a chain of mutually beneficial — and thus conflict-free — property title transfers, to prior and ultimately original appropriators and acts of appropriation. *Mutatis mutandis,* all claims to and uses made of things by a person who had neither appropriated or previously produced these things, nor acquired them through a conflict-free exchange from some previous owner, are *unjust* (unlawful). Let me emphasize, that I consider these elementary insights argumentatively irrefutable and hence, *a priori* true. If you want to live in peace with other persons — and you demonstrate that you wish to do so by engaging in argumentation with them — then only one solution exists: you must have private (exclusive) property in all things scarce and suitable as means (or goods) in the pursuit of human ends (goals); and private property in such things must be founded in acts of original appropriation — the recognizable em-bordering or enclosure of scarce resources — or else in the voluntary transfer of such property from a prior to a later owner." - Hans-Hermann Hoppe, ***Getting Libertarianism Right*** (2018) p. 59 #AnCap #Libertarian #Antistate #Hoppe #Hoppean #Lockean #Homesteading #Seasteading #Exchange #PrivateProperty #Ownership #Scarcity #Conflict #NonAggressionPrinciple #Praxeology #HumanAction #Quotestr
"To avoid conflict from the start, it is necessary that private property be founded through *acts of original appropriation.* Property must be established through *acts* (instead of mere words, decrees, or declarations), because only through actions, taking place in time and space, can an objective — intersubjectively ascertainable — link be established between a particular person and a particular thing. And only the *first* appropriator of a previously unappropriated thing can acquire this thing as his property *without conflict.* For, by definition, as the *first* appropriator he *cannot* have run into conflict with anyone in appropriating the good in question, as everyone else appeared on the scene only *later.*" - Hans-Hermann Hoppe, ***Getting Libertarianism Right*** (2018) p. 58 #AnCap #Libertarian #Antistate #Hoppe #Hoppean #JohnLocke #Lockean #Homesteading #Seasteading #OriginalAppropriation #PrivateProperty #Ownership #Conflict #NonAggressionPrinciple #Praxeology #HumanAction #Quotestr
"Consequently, in every act of cultivation, the question has to be considered, how land and capital should be employed relatively to each other, so as to give the best returns of rent. The same return in crops may be produced by taking more or less land into cultivation, or by employing more or fewer doses of capital, and agriculturists have to decide on these points. Thus land and capital become commensurable in their products; and, whenever civilisation has got this length, it is impossible longer to avoid valuing land according to the fundamental laws of valuing capital. To do otherwise would be to renounce the only possible measure for calculation and economic decisions. Just as capitals can be rightly compared with each other only when calculated at the same rate of interest, so can land and capital be rightly compared only when the valuation of land assumes the rate of interest on capital." - Friedrich von Wieser, ***Natural Value*** (1893) p. 140.
