Is this post received here not deserving of some real hellfire:
Anyone who believes decentralization to anarchy will bring about some form of Utopia is an idealist at best and stupid at worst. Government exists for a reason. But why expect people to learn from history?

this was in the utopia post and i was gently mocking of it, but if this is truly a hellfire group such a post deserves to be raked over--no: buried in the coals. And kicked about til ashed inside and out. Smug. All-exclusive. Concise to the point of vapid.

I never signed a social contract in my life.

Neither did I. But people keep telling me I live with one. I didn't even sign on for the United States Constitution and its variable interpretations.
6RickHarsch
Then we are clearly free...and if US armies are fighting for a free world they are fighting for us and therefore can hardly blame us for opposing them.
7RickHarsch
and if that's convoluted you should hear how i explain the absolute necessity of tearing up parking tickets

You have me down for a professional wrassler, don't you. Get cable, my good man, get cable.

I THINK I'm a good aunt, but I must admit I always avoided diaper duty.

If you don't believe you live under a social contract, leave whatever nation is imposing its government on you. Colonize an anarchical state that can sustain itself and repel attacks and prove me wrong.
9: Sorry that trying to find a full time job takes too much out of me to deal with drama here. But I'm beginning to like our conversations so much, you'll be the first to know just how many 50mg tablets of sleeping pills it takes to make my problems go away.

This is the Hellfire Club? Where are my personal attacks? Where are the calls that I'm nothing but an apologist, a fascist, argumentative, trollish whiner? Tell me how naïve, how worthless I am.
16RickHarsch
to the contrary, you are clearly a man of striking genius
18RickHarsch
but if the masochist is so because he is incapable of sadism?

For me, true freedom is to accept that, sometimes, a majority of people can vote for stupid governments - in truth, we get what we most vote for. But if I do my voting duty, the ones who don't (do theirs) would do well to *not* complain to me about anything institutional going pear-shaped. Did I mention French politicians are all starting to wibble about the upcoming presidential elections? I am voting for *me* (the saying goes that you can only trust yourself).
