RE: On The Spot Interview with Adam Kokesh

in #anarchy6 years ago

I think Adam broke down the wall you are hitting in the argument fairly well.. I feel you are misinterpreting language choice for the will at which he hopes to set in creating his executive order. Whether he be the "custodian" of the federal government, or whether the electoral process abides by libertarian principles (or if adam thinks elections are scams) is irrelevant when the core of Adam's argument implies he wants to figure out how to get to peaceful eradication of government. He repeatedly stated his plan was not perfect, and he is open to resolving the multitude of imperfections, and he hopes to start a conversation about the immorality of government.

Though the idea of complete abolition of government through an executive order is absurd I think Adam is likely open to a better idea if there is such. I don't think quoting his past contradictions says anything about the overarching sentiment of what he wants to accomplish.

Thanks for debating, I enjoyed listening!

Well, to be fair, I was quoting his current contradictions. Federal elections are simply not legitimate means by which to gain power/ownership for a Voluntaryist. The libertarian property ethic is pretty straightforward, and for good reason. Adam’s plan requires we trust one man with centralized control. Plus, apart from being delusional/unrealistic, it violates self-ownership by its very nature.

What is the abuse here @abusereports? This comment was clearly a direct response to the subject matter of the post, in conversation with other commenters. There is no spam, no attack or insult, defamation, derogatory language, threats, nothing offensive whatsoever. What gives with the downvote?

The owner of abusereports (the poo poo whale) has a personal vendetta against me. He does not have a valid reason for his downvotes.
