        The message is step on me and get bit. Traditionally it’s an anarchist symbol encouraging unity and brotherhood among the colonies in defiance of the crown.
        But just like many other things it has been misinterpreted and misused by fascists.

                Yellow and black equals Libertarian Black and red equals Anarchy capitalism or at least that’s how it used to work back on Reddit

                Oh don’t get me wrong. My party has a shit reputation because it’s been infiltrated on purpose and turned into a mockery of itself.

                Classical liberalism is a political tradition and a branch of liberalism that advocates free market and laissez-faire economics and civil liberties under the rule of law, with special emphasis on individual autonomy, limited government, economic freedom, political freedom and freedom of speech. Classical liberalism, contrary to liberal branches like social liberalism, looks more negatively on social policies, taxation and the state involvement in the lives of individuals, and it advocates deregulation.

                Mind you I’m not saying the government is useless. I’m just saying there are some things that shouldn’t be regulated that are excessively stupidly regulated. There are other things that need more regulation. It’s a balancing act.

  • Once, years ago, went out to a restaurant with some friends and had a couple drinks. Wasn’t paying close enough attention to my intake, and ended up a little too tipsy to drive (not, like, belligerent drunk or anything, just not safe to drive). Hung out sitting on the hood of my car watching videos on my phone for a while with a friend until he had to leave. Before he left, this super cute guy started talking to us. We hit it off, and dude and I started getting flirty. Went back to his place because it was walking distance, did the deed, and when we were done I went to get some water from his kitchen.

    Wherein I see not one, not two, but no less than a dozen coffee mugs, posters, fucking rugs, and all manner of paraphernalia with right wing nonsense. We’re talking he had a fucking swastika area rug. I begin the heavy breathing of a scared little gay boy (6’3 and nearly 300lbs/190cm 135kg), and he notices my discomfort. He acts like this is nothing unusual and says he’s just a collector of WWII shit.

    Yeah, bro, maybe you are. But that doesn’t explain the don’t tread on me poster, the trump 2016 merch, and fucking birth of a nation movie poster!

    I got the fuck outta there before his lawyers had a chance to try out a gay panic defense.

    • I was wondering what the glasses were referring to. I guess you mean Max Stirner?

      German post-Hegelian philosopher, dealing mainly with the Hegelian notion of social alienation and self-consciousness. Stirner is often seen as one of the forerunners of nihilism, existentialism, psychoanalytic theory, postmodernism and individualist anarchism

      I’m a bad leftist, I’m terrible with theory and history.
