RE: introducemyself: @annie.oakley
That's a very cool reply! =)
It's great to hear you're considering different ideas. Actually, I'm not an Agorist either and it took me a lot of careful thinking to go from classical liberal to even considering government without anyone being born into it.
Cooperative Agorism (kooperativagorism) is different from Agorism. It's first of all a strategy that can be used by any liberty minded person and which doesn't make many of the ideological demands that Konkin put forth when he presented agorism. Cooperative Agorists may still vote, we don't have to work in the black market etc.
You can think of "Cooperative Agorism" as a strategic answer to "Social Democracy". We build voluntary institutions by blockchains, seasteading or whichever other means we find. This in turn causes mainstream society to change over time.
Ah I see, thank you for this clarity as these ideologies are brand new to me. I will look into further information on this 'Cooperative Agorism'. I am not much of a 'labelist', but I do recognize that they can be helpful in facilitating communication and understanding. Cheers :)
Yes and that's exactly why I love labels. =)They are a great way to reference a big chunk of information and spread ideas. But we should remain in control and not get stuck with false sets of beliefs. Cheers =)
