What do you do if you're an anarcho-capitalist society that is next door to a state socialist one that manipulates the prices of goods to try and subjugate you?

Impossible. They will be outcompeted.

Rally the men into nazis and genocide the inferior. Done that we decide if we remain nazi or disband back into spergs depending on what has most benefits for me.

They cannot do so. Any measure they take will hit them worse than us, even if we suppose that we're each others only trading partner. That on top of all the taxes and monetary stabilization programs they'll have.

If they lower prices domestically, they'll be producing at a loss, and we'll buy things cheap. If they increase prices domestically, we simply don't buy their shit anymore. If they withhold some essential production good from us by raising its price and only giving subsidies to domestic buyers, we will find a substitute, or we will still get our hands on it through the black market that is bound to come into existence. If both things are impossible, then you are essentially begging the question.

Let me guess, it's only called National SOCIALISM because Hitler was such a hilarious goofball?

Meh. The Way of Man was one half respectable philosophical and sociological research, one half being pumped as fuck, brah. Being pumped is a surprisingly good substitute for philosophical reasoning but still only a substitute.

I doubt a proper socialist state would even want to trade with us, since most socialist states are all about trying to be fully self dependent. but to answer your question, we would do an embargo(more of a boycott really) of all commie goods, then they all starve to death.

>we would do an embargo

"We" aren't going to be doing anything of the sort. The only thing keeping them from attacking is their interdependence on trading with us.

With the present situation they are manipulating their performance statistics in an attempt to drive traffic to their board, however recently they suffered a split so those means have taken a toll on their effectiveness. They use their resources to advocate for imports from external forums to sustain their tyranny.

They show up here to deliver bad memes.

In this case they are precluded from invading by a digital barrier.

Look at the winter war and tell me you honestly think a state socialist regime could invade an elementary school, much less an entire nation?


 No.80015

>>80009

I don't think they can do much to hurt us. I don't want them to even try and upset the market. I'm more concerned about their own people. Particularly those that can't leave the regime.

Isn't that kind of begging the question? Socialists can barely produce enough goods for themselves (if they can even produce enough goods for themselves) in the first place, and you're saying they're going to have time to waste those precious resources on AnCapistan at the expense of their own citizenry? AnCapistan probably doesn't even accept Socialist currency in the first place, and the Socialist nation probably bans/heavily taxes AnCapistani goods in an effort to keep people from realizing it's better on the other side.

This reiteration of the question "what if X uses the state to outcompete you?" is pointless because it assumes the state can outcompete us. A state with heavy regulations, a stagnating "thriving" employer-led healthcare initiative, forcing its citizenry at gunpoint to hand over their money while enforcing minimum wages will never be able to compete with a group who doesn't play by those rules and doesn't give a fuck, because those are expenses that will make the cost of trying to outcompete the market (that they can't directly invade) exponentially larger than AnCapistani losses the more they push it. Let's not forget that when various monopolies tried this same scheme of assuming future monopoly profits by taking massive losses in the early 1900s, their competitors shut down their factories for a few months, and then when the monopolies tried to price gouge, their competitors opened up their factories near-immediately because they could compete again. A lot of those "monopolies" ended up going bankrupt because they had lost too much money pricing out their competition and could no longer recover it via price gouging.

I like your spirit, anon. It always does good to remember that the majority of citizens in most countries aren't ideologues.
