RE: ANTIFA Gets it Wrong Again: "AnCap" (Anarcho-Capitalist) DOES NOT EQUATE TO "Alt-Right"

in #politics7 years ago

Essentially, whatever label is applied, the extremes of all political wings are identical. Anti-statism leads directly to the kind of anarchy that results in killings such as that of the MP Jo Cox, or of african americans for the crime of being black, or of Jews for being in Europe when Hitler didn't want them to be... There is a trend to refer to such things as "popularism" at present, which I find deeply worrying as it implies one can only be popular by being extreme. The label is irrelevant, and focusing so much on accurate branding obfuscates the underlying nihilism of obscure brands of politics without really feeding into a constructive debate. AntiFa are just as guilty of all of these failings as anything in the anarchy or alt-right basket.

Sort:  

Extreme adherence to the axiomatic and immutable, objective reality of nature-conferred individual self-ownership cannot, by very definition, produce those unsavory results you've listed.

Not according to how you interpret those words, maybe, but at what point does your self-ownership interfere with mine? And at that point, whose self-ownership is more important? The murderer of Jo Cox clearly felt that his right to self-ownership was sufficient to justify murder...
