Do you want to talk with other ancaps and bully minarchists someplace other than online, without roving /leftypol/ shitposters to disrupt everything? Would you like to do it with people who dress neatly and can string a sentence together? Of course you do! So why not get a collection of /liberty/ posters together to go to Mises University this summer? I went last year and I can say with certainty I had an excellent time, not just with the lectures but the chance to talk with people about various subjects relating to Austrian economics, natural law, and liberty. If you're a uni student, undergrad or graduate, you're basically guaranteed a scholarship, so if you get yourself there you won't have to pay for anything. Anyone up for it?

There are several lectures they make that aren't uploaded to the youtube channel, which are pretty nice. The real advantage is the opportunity to meet and socialize with ~200 other Austro-Libertarians.

Stay in denial, retard, your shitty ideology died when the Soviet Union didn't get its oil and gas rents.
Libertarianism is to 21st century what communism was to the 19th century, the movement has grown rapidly since the ideology was first properly defined and it will eventually reach the critical mass required to change the status quo.

And quite expectedly, the few countries where this cancer still prevails are poverty-stricken shitholes with the exact opposite of what communism promises to achieve.
>mass movements of millions of followers
The time for world revolutions is long over. Most communists are useless sheep that could only ask nicely for their governments to give them free shit, or mentally unhinged retards who beat people with bicycle locks.
>strengthen the status quo and has never prevailed anywhere
The status quo exists because governments realized that it's more efficient to rob people when they actually have something that could be robbed from them. Letting people keep their property doesn't benefit politicians, and take it all away would be the same as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
>NeoLiberal Goverments and their capitalist policy
Capitalism isn't a policy, capitalism is the absence of economic policies.

Yeah, notice how it's so convenient for these creatures to use ambiguous words which don't have a well-defined meaning. That way when their bullshit has been called out and they're backed up against the wall, they can always say: "Aha! That word you used doesn't mean what you think it means!", it's not a bug, it's a feature of communism.

commie has a point. Altho what he puts instead is much worse and his head should be crushed for it. Real free market is the solution not imposing state enforced poverty.
Nobles made the concept of a chartered monopoly as well as central currency. It give the king's favorites a monopoly over certain fields and markets. It was made it illegal to create value on your own, outside of the corporation, so if you were a tradesman you had to work for the corporation. Around that same time is when clocks started to appear on towers, because now instead of people creating value for themselves they became employees and sold their labor. Because the way a corporation is structured (or the state structured it) its purpose becomes to produce returns in the short term to its investors, basically like giving back loans with interest. Its purpose becomes to convert value to shareholder cash. When u build a system on interest it requires growth, if you have to return more money than you own, it has to come from somewhere, either u take it from someone who goes bankrupt or you grow as a corporation. If you need to grow you need space and resource into which to expand. Historically speaking, that's what gave rise to all those mercantilist corporations of Europe. Because they have a growth mandate they go to the Americas or India or Africa and enslave and extract resources and value to fuel their growth. Corporations now technically function along the same rules.

Having limited recognition of Private enterprise during lower phase communism (Socialism) does not conflict with Marxism nor Leninism

Yes some did exist (Venetian republic / Netherlands etc) but to ignore the entire feudal system and the systems preceding even that is nonsense and ideological dishonesty

I've already stated this (Many many times) in different threads but most of the "real" visions of capitalism proposed by /liberty/ have never existed in material reality and most of modern or in some cases (Anarchists-Capitalists) are simply impossible

BS. There is a book on what i am talking about, called "Throwing Rocks at the Google Bus by Douglas Rushkoff" check it out. If too lazy to read the book search for his articles or lectures on YT with that same name. There was that time in in late medeval europe where peasants started to trade with each other through the market place creating a peer to peer economy. They got so wealthy that they started building all those cathedrals because they didn't have savings vehicles. Ass middle class grows, upper classes wither. Nobles made the concept of a chartered monopoly as well as central currency. thats the rest of the story >>98043
Free market =/= capitalism. An economy is made up out of three factors of production: land, labour and capital. What my case states is that through a monopoly on violence (and central currency) the state give priority to capital instead of making the three equal.
It's about equalizing the three factors of production(also decentralizing the currency). Otherwise, you get disenfranchised workforce and polluted environment. Like we have now where 40% of American adults cannot pay for a 400$ emergency or 46% of Canadians are 200$ away from not being able to pay their bills and Richest 1% own half the world's wealth.
also socialism is state enforced poverty and a basically come back to feudalism.

This statement contradicts corruption indeces and is off-topic.

It is not the mandate per se but the fact that the state considers themselves as an eternal and necessary entity.

Don't move the goalposts you Marxist filth, you said you had no cult of personalty, now you're saying it's okay to have one because other people do. There's also a gulf of difference between a flag or statue, and interring the corpse of Dear Leader in a gas-purged glass box for the nation's viewing pleasure. Even the other cults of personality haven't gone that far.
