If you’re looking for somewhere online to debate and you’re thinking about suicide due to loss of faith in humanity then go to left-rev. If you’re looking for a slightly slower death with a wider ideological spectrum go here:
There was a Marxist who used to frequent the forums by the name of “Daft Punk”… If he’s still there then give him my regards. Anyway, marxists and radical socialists aren’t exactly a large part of the forum but they made a pretty f***ing large vocal minority as far as I remember. You’ll also meet some really smart libertarians. If the user “Absolute Voluntaryist” (I believe that is his name, he had a Spooner avatar) is still there and you see him in action then bow down and prepare to be in awe. He’s one of the few libertarians who I have seen who is not only very smart but who is also genuinely good at debating, and doing so in an intellectual manner.
And no, I tried finding some of his posts, but I couldn’t find any. I just made those comments on the way you celebrated his knowledge of libertarianism. And personally, after looking at a Google Preview of Leftrev, I really don’t think I want to go on there, haha. Too many loons in one location.
Yea I edit stuff I post right after I post it all the time and correct grammar crap.
Anyway, just for you I did some digging and I found his profile. I’m glad that he’s been posting since I left the forum, disturbed that he hasn’t posted in a month. I had the spelling of his name slightly off… And remember, I did this just. for. you.
I thought of the word one day, I thought it sounded cool. Neodoxy, a new school of thought, a similar process to the worldview which I have been forming over the past 3 years where I see my thought processes affected from all areas of thought from Mises to Nietzsche to Compte along with whatever I derive from these thinkers. A neodoxy is forming within me, and I find my views to always be neodox, if only because my views on matters are changing so constantly.
So I thought it was a cool username, and it has the unforeseen benefit that people occasionally put up pictures of Keanu Reeves while talking about me, and I’m down for that.
