@Incal This is the truth!
an interesting example of how black markets have reduced the size and power of the argentinian state.
So maybe agorism and anarcho-capitalism hand-in-hand, is the way to go?
Good article on agorism vs anarcho-capitalism.

I think they can complement each other, but I do lean towards the view that participating in the political system, trying to change it from within, is doomed to failure.
Looking at the world today, I think only Argentina has managed to move a few inches towards libertarianism and the free society, but Miley will be gone one day, and the deep state will make sure that socialism will come back.
Argentina is also
@troed Great! Thank you very much for the advice! =)
@SirHendrick We would be in a better world. Women are not well suited to vote, because they are too emotional. Men should rule, and women should take care of the men. That is the way nature intended for us.
What they mean by open borders

Open borders and free trade make countries more prosperous because they expand markets for exporters and lower costs for importers.
Firms can specialize, compete, and upgrade with better inputs and technology, which boosts productivity and wages. Capital also flows more easily when trade is predictable.
Closed borders like in North Korea restrict imports/exports, block technology transfer, shrink opportunities for business, and raise uncertainty and shortages. That mix suppresses growth.
@silverpill Good! Codeberg seems close to going all woke so I would definitely move to some other place.
@troed Which open model is currently the best allround one? And will I be able to fit anything meaningful onto a 32 gb ram laptop?
@icare4america It is a complete mystery why people in europe still do not realize this!
The only two reasons I can think of is that either they are very, very stupid, or they want their own culture to die.
When it comes to the new nobility, our politicians, I am certain it is the second reason.
@elston_ @amerika I do, as long as they do it within the constraints I specified. If they go past these constraints, I fight back.
Prime example... moslems. They want to reshape europe and make it into some kind of barbaric medieval society. This calls for fighting them. I do it by refusing as far as I can to hire them, to do business with them, and overall, to interact with them.
When I'm forced to, I always make a point of ridiculing religion, and not following their customs.

I had this specific argument about immigration.
The obvious should be obvious.
These aliens pretend to be escaping some awful conditions.
They are awful and immediately return to supposed awful place.
They are renters with no security deposit.
@Incal I don't think we'll do that this time around. I think first, we'll have us an AI bubble collapse, and then we can wisely learn from the current experiments, and once the markets recover, maybe then we'll be on track to create real AGI. LLM:s I think are a dead end for AGI.
@elston_ @amerika As a physicalist, the only "religion" I can take seriously is the mystic, where the experience is interpreted through psychology, and personal, subjective, experience and meaning.
People who try to argue that god is out there in the world, or that their god is the right one are lunatics and belong in a mental hospital.
@shortstories I find it very funny how the modern left tries to embrace both homos and moslems. It is not possible. Choose one or the other, but locking them both into the same room, we all know who will survive and who will not.
