Hot takes on the Democratic frontrunners

[Griff]

Trump appears to be the perfect combination of trolling and corruption. Believing everyone to be corrupt, his supporters will stick with their guy. This might just get the chaos Henry so badly desires. Little secret, we're more likely to get more authoritarian government left and right than some anarcho-capitalist Nirvana.

"Trump appears to be the perfect combination of trolling and corruption."

Trolling, yeah; but where's the corruption? I keep hearin' how awful he is but nobody ponies up actual evidence.

Where's the beef?

I've had that since '16: lovin' it.

If the Left wins, absolutely.

Where did I claim a nightwatchman proxyhood would be nirvana? If I haven't already said it in this place, let me say it now: life in a minarchy would be harder simply cuz a whole whack of folks who don't wanna take care of themselves would have to (or get themselves to a charity).

For me: life would be pretty much what it is now ('cept I wouldn't be considered a criminal).

and: minarchy and ancap aren't the same thing at all

It is how Hitler came to power.

Lies and insults appeal to those using the mind of a child (also called the reptilian brain).
