Someone needs to honor this man for being the reactionary arch-nemesis of Rousseau. Academics call him the proto-fascist Isaiah Berlin. Others call him a shadow of the Dark Ages. Maistre and Counter-Enlightenment figures deserve a place somewhere in our hearts for stepping in the light of Progress and stomping it out.

I recommend reading Maistre's Against Rousseau. The place of origin for this PDF fell apart. I am keeping it here because it is an important piece and deserves a read. I am also recommending http://maistre.uni.cx/sovereignty.html this read.

>Against Rousseau

Deals with the leftist 'noble savage' and the Left's consistent belief that human nature is benevolent and happy in the state of nature. Deals with institutional belief and property. It is a remarkable relevant read for monarchists/reactionaries alike.

A lot of royals were freemasons. I don't like freemasonry either. The thing is, with freemasonry, you cannot pin anyone down for being a freemason and come to an easy conclusion. Kaiser Wilhelm II was anti-masonic and his father was one, I believe. You find conflicts like this.

To Maistre's credit, in his work Against Rousseau, his outright denial of the 'state of nature' is astonishing. His response is that man was not created for the state of nature and is made for civilization. As Maistre puts it…

>"With Rousseau's mentality, man breaks the state of nature for cooking an egg."

And also denies that there was a 'primitive' man. There is only a 'savage' man. Primitive man is a mirage.

De Maistre is an enlightenment thinker in monarchist garb, while he very successfully attacks bourgeois thought, he does so from the positions and through the means which themselves presuppose bourgeois thought, that would have been inconceivable at any period during which the ancien regime had been secure.

I can't speak for all libertarian monarchists, but I'm anything but soft-handed. Over my private property, I rule with an iron fist. Communists, free-riders, foreigners, and other undesirables will be expelled from the covenant community with extreme prejudice. Those who resist removal will be shot, and their bodies disposed of by the McGarbage service the next morning.

As a side-note, I'm not sure fascism truly belongs in infographics such as these, or if it does it should go right after generic conservative. The majority of fascists and NEETSocs that you find on places such as 8chan flock to the ideology out of a puerile desire to be as edgy and contrarian as possible, and to that end they adopt symbolism which pains normies the most. This is also why they tend to become pagans (or take the next step in contrarianism and shill for white islamic Sharia). They have no conceptual grounds on which to base their philosophy, and construct their beliefs entirely on aesthetic. There are exceptions to this rule, which came around to fascism, corporatism, and similar modes of thought through genuine understanding of history and human nature, but they are few and far between; I can count the ones I've encountered on my thumbs.

You know, Hoppe is furthering the decline; his entire philosophy is effectively liberal, he just takes freedom of association to the nth degree by promoting freedom to disassociate (i.e. freedom to work outside of and undermine the state).

I know that it is touted as the future because people are complete retards. People have predicted that the "next revolution" will involve the essential ceasing to be of society in favour of essentially autonomous communes at least since the failures of October 1917. But it doesn't mean shit, because ultimately people like having cold beer from a working refrigerator more than they like revolutionary agitation.

Really Hoppe and other libertarians are just cringe and blue-pilled liberal Jacobins with blue balls from failing to destroy society any further. Ironically it is the modern aristocrats who are living the dream that Hoppeans desire for themselves, because they are Jacobin pricks at heart.

As a monarchist, cold beer from a working refrigerator is easily worth costing the lives of 1,000 Lolbertarians, or 10,000 Republicans/Jacobins

There's also this. Even without anon contrarianism exacerbating these tendencies, historically fascism did a lot to overturn tradition.

You claim that Hoppe is liberal, then use a decidedly illiberal position as proof of this.

>because ultimately people like having cold beer from a working refrigerator more than they like revolutionary agitation.

Yes, that's why leftism in all its forms fails.

>Really Hoppe and other libertarians are just cringe and blue-pilled liberal Jacobins with blue balls from failing to destroy society any further

Hoppe frequently calls for a restoration of the natural order, and repeatedly advocates for actions that would preserve society at all costs. Why else would he side with law enforcement over the antifaggots? I have to wonder if you actually know anything about Hoppe's positions, or if you're just purity-spiraling.

To be honest, I'm not as informed about Hoppe as I should be but I still want to litigate my original point, which was;

>his entire philosophy is effectively liberal, he just takes freedom of association to the nth degree by promoting freedom to disassociate

<You claim that Hoppe is liberal, then use a decidedly illiberal position as proof of this.

How is it illiberal to promote freedom to disassociate? It's not orthodox liberalism, and ultimately it is the creed of a hermit, but nevertheless it is an anti-traditional freedom, supported only by pacifists, hermits and other degenerates. There is no legitimate opt-out from society, even in the Church – if you want to press that point – there is society in a certain form.

I doubt you'd argue with me on this point.

>Hoppe calls for restoration of natural order

I know, but there is a definite inconsistency above, that's all I'm saying, ergo not worthy of being classed as a final red-pill. (I'm defending the image in my post here >>7311 over this version here >>7312 )

>How is it illiberal to promote freedom to disassociate?

The liberal position is to equate freedom of association with forced association. Hoppe does the opposite of this by emphasizing the right of people to discriminate, and the many positive benefits of such.

>ultimately it is the creed of a hermit

You mean forced dissociation? That's very far removed from freedom of dissociation. You dissociate with undesirables and associate with desirables. This isn't even an ideological question, it's human nature. You interact with people you like and distance yourself from people you don't like.

>supported only by pacifists

The statement implicit in private property and freedom of dissociation is "stay away don't fuck with me or I shoot you." That's far from pacifist.

>There is no legitimate opt-out from society, even in the Church – if you want to press that point – there is society in a certain form.

>I doubt you'd argue with me on this point.

I wouldn't, and neither would Hoppe. He argues that freedom of dissociation (which again, does not mean hermitship, but homogeneity and cohesion) is essential to building society and making it more robust. Rather than some multicultural hellscape of forced association, Hoppe argues we should make use of our in-group preference, only associate with desirables, and trade from a distance with other people, such that we retain the benefits of trade and comparative advantage, without incurring the social costs associated with diversity.

>I know, but there is a definite inconsistency above

What inconsistency? This all seems hinged on your assumption that freedom of dissociation means everyone lives in autarky, which simply isn't true.

That's one of the reasons Hoppe considers monarchy to be the least bad form of government. The king's incentives are very close to that of a private property owners, since a king's realm is effectively his private property. As a result, it's generally in his own interests to physically remove (called exile or banishment) the undesirables, and to reign in a relatively hands-off fashion as that benefits his own revenues in the long run.

I don't see how you could prefer one or the other. Both make useful monarchist arguments. Yet Bodin still emphasizes the family and has the merit of being older than Hobbes. Try Bodin.

I think I have been too hard on Hoppe. With Hobbes and Hoppe, people think almost as though they were polar opposites. An absolutist social contract theorist and an Austrian school libertarian. Yet both make the case that even a monarch's self-interest could benefit the common good. That was a big point from Hobbes, who stressed that even a self-interested monarch can benefit the common good.

Everyday, we are so close yet so far apart.

The only thing Hans-Hermann Hoppe suffers from me is painful neglect. I'm sure that as a monarchist thinker, Hoppe is all right. Even if it is the case that monarchy is the 'least bad form of government', that's still a huge compliment coming from anarchists. I wouldn't complain there.

>against the Poor

I wouldn't know about this. It is often the case that libertarians are pushed into the "muh rich people" camp, but they have also been against corporations being in bed with the political class and their lackeys. That is the least I would know.

Hoppe makes no such argument. At worst, he demonstrates through argument that the poor tend to be higher time-preference, more present-oriented people. However, he makes no normative suggestions as to what, if anything, should be done about this fact of reality.
