Socialism vs 'Libertarianism' Thread

How?

It means that their government was weak and couldn't win. What is so bad about that?

Point being: It hasn't worked.

Two different things I guess?

EDIT:

Your so fucking bias dude, and I respect your dying love for socialism and yet I hate you for it

@GeneralofCarthage
And exactly how many times and for how long has orthodox libertarianism worked?

Like I said I am a Capitalist.

Which I support Capitalists means you earn your money fair and square and its your choice to give or not.

We really don't need more ideology vs ideology threads. Nearly every thread turns into one anyways. Threads where people go "mine's better and yours sucks!" "no mine's better and yours sucks!" really get nowhere and serve no purpose. Just getting tired of it. Some of us are communists, some of us are libertarians, some of us are socialists, some of us are everything else and none of us will convince the other of our perceived faults of their ideology.

Yup I agree, I was about you to tell a socialist story how the government brutalize my family.

So yeah people think different in general.

Because using that as a reason that Anarcho-Capitalism, Libertarianism, Anarchy, or whatever the fuck it was called doesn't work doesn't make sense. How is one example of a political system sufficient evidence that it doesn't work? Would you use that standard of evidence for other aspects of politics? Because if so. . . heh.

Did you not read Chelsea's post?

But we must argue in vain to change everyone's opinion to are own, its are way.

Btw everyone knows Libertarianism is a condom.

You judge if an ideology works by if a government with it is successful or not.

Or you judge it based on what Hoxha thinks of it.

Dude.......I know like 75% are socialists but can you at least respect libertarianism?

I want you to take your eyes, now slowly move them down until you reach my sig from J.F.K and then read.

Oh Sorry

No one is required or expected to respect the opposite ideologies, I'm just tired of all the bickering about it however. I do not respect libertarianism and I do not expect libertarians to respect my ideology. This does not mean I can't respect people who believe in it for other reasons but that is beside the point.

Damn right you are.

Anyways Im a Marxist-Leninist of the Hoxha line, if you want more information just vist my facebook page.

I did, and I agree with it. What's your point?

Did you read what I said? I'm very aware of that, but you're only using one example. Again, is this the standard you use for everything?

You don't have to be rude

Then how can we achieve inner and outer peace, the flow of energy of this site is backwards and forwards, but not one direction.

Well, Somalia is a good example of Libertarian economics/politics. Small, decentralized government, unlimited and unrestricted free market, everybody is free to do whatever they want to try and improve their lives with unrestricted personal liberties. Now how is Somalia going again?

I hate libertarians because they want to take my rights away from me - Because they will destroy our society with their unproven, unverified, child-like view of economics, and will in turn revert civilization back to feudalism. Libertarianism is my enemy.
