Im from NC, the leftist scene here is pretty large. I am not a leftist myself, only here for discussion and learning.

It varies from progressive liberals to radical collectivists. Not to many capitalists to speak of.

I guess I would say I am minarchist.

Ok, so you're not against capitalism as such or for working class hegemony (as opposed to current day capitalist hegemony) or for a classless society?

Im for whatever you want to do, be it collective or individual, as long as its not authoritarian. Basically.

Very well. Minarchists are frowned upon here as most are pro-capitalist and very rightwing. Hence why I was asking.

Well, personally I associate minarchy with objectivism.

[SwampRaider]

I can see that.

[Widerstand]

I can see that.

I wonder how, cos I don't really associate hermits with minarchy ;D

[SwampRaider]

We want to be left alone. Minarchy is the best chance at that.

[AK]

So it's the perfect ideology for emo kids?

So it's the perfect ideology for emo kids?

Emo kids want to be left to their emo ways. I just like lots of guns and being a nomad. That, and I generally favor limited government involvement in my life as it is. I like to keep the money I make and spend it on what I want. All in all, the more libertarian policies in place in my local government have proved to work out for me and the more progressive ones have sort of fucked my plans up.

[AK]

But what if you could actually be involved in the running of society and the economy yourself?
