I've recently talked with a rightist libertarian. While it sounds bad, it was a very interesting conversation! He obviously knew more than I did, so I listened and I learned things. He also had a number of opinions very similar to mine, but it seems the underlying philosophy was different? That and he has racist tendancies I didn't try to dig into, bc we were at a party.
Racism, list of things I need to be able to counter argue
- Cultural homogeneity being a factor for reducing criminality (he agrees it stems from ignorance of other cultures, but he was implying strangers were forcing lifestyles onto the french population)
- He claimed it was near impossible for corporation to employ, exploit and just throw employees once the burnout makes them unproductive, and "consume" people (in a french context) bc it's also costly to employ in itself

@arteteco To be absolutely honest, I'm not sure. I'd be able to say "we haven't found a solution to that *yet*" but the thing with me and anarchism is that it's my way of keeping hope. Not sure it's healthy, and maybe that's not a good thing when it comes to being a good citizen? I try to at least admit that.
