If you’ve ever watched V for Vedetta and know about Guy Fawkes… Well these people dress up as him and have marches periodically protesting things. They were also the ones that hacked the Scientology website. Nonetheless, they would probably easily be converted into An. Caps.
Don’t forget about graphic novels and music. A good concept album would do wonders for us. But I do agree we need entertaining literature to inspire people.
Hmm…I do have a small amount of respect for Anonymous, they’re basically fighting statist to be. And they’re gung ho-esque attitude could be very helpful in the future. And the CoS has a way of bringing massive attention to it’s enemies; Propaganda of the deed, Luis. [;)]
It might be helpful if somebody started a new thread for the sole idea of possible scenarios that could be used to write a novel or graphic novel. Who knows, somebody might one day get a book published through that. Or any computer savvy individuals here may create pamphlets that we could distribute through our community-tieing the mainstream problems of people today w/ a mainstream version of Austrian Economics. 'Cause hell, I’m 13 and I don’t want to be given the burden of an excessive load of debt caused by fiscal irresponsibility.
Rebel against the public school skillfully! I’m sure there are many who share your view about it, but are to afraid to speak up. Also try to make allies with some of the outcasts, they could become good allies and friends.
I know how to get the message across… appeal to the only thing that masses care about… their wallets. I used speech class as an opportunity to enlighten my classmates. The first topic I spoke on was fractional reserve banking… now that got the whole class talking. Even the professor had no idea about it.
Second, I spoke on ethanol and how horrible it is as a fuel source. Informing the class how subsidies combined with the now mandated 25% of fuel as ethanol is causing not only increased food prices but food shortages in Mexico as well as other countries.
I still keep in contact with a few of the people from this class and answer questions they have for me, to the best of my ability. I feel that if I can help at least one person in each of my classes that I am making a good impact.
Nah, HUMAN FREEDOM isn’t the best one. What word are you going to try next? Liberty? Anarchy? No, none of these words will help further our cause. These words have all been to corrupted by modern society.
Couldn’t agree with you more!
4chan?
Now there’s a good slogan;
“Freedom is Sexy”
V for Vendetta? Woh, great movie… though the comic was a little better! Still, very nice.
What’s this about people hacking the scientology website?
Hmm… not a bad idea. To bad I’m not much of a writer (I like writing, but have never got past short-stories… lol, that was a few years ago)
Wait, your 13? See guys, I told you, the libertarian movement isn’t dieing!
I’ve tried to explain the benefits of anrchy-libertarianism to my peers, yet I seem to be surrounded by either religiouos zealots who are determined to limits indivual rights and misinformed democrats. Though I did get one conversion to libertarianism, that being a kid that was at one point obsessed with 4c**n. I at one point did begin posting up papers around the school about the libertarianism and the austrian business cycle, but I was later chastised for apparently being “anarchacious.” I would not dare ruin my future any further-hence any civil disobedience within the the school is unquestionable.
BTW, I used live in California, and and from experiance, and a drug/homosexually oriented (though maybe not due to the recent proposition) slogan like
YOU CAN HAVE DRUGS AND DO YOUR PARTNER IN THE BUTTHOLE TOO!!! could possibly be acceptable by their standards. ; -)
The reason I use “HUMAN FREEDOM” is because it’s easy to translate and even in the most conservative or liberal countries, it would not be seen as a real threatening call to the government, this in effect would give the Libertarians in even the most despotic nations time to build strength and at the same time remind them what they’re fighting for, the slogan isn’t so much a slogan, as it is a weapon comparable to molotov cocktail, easy to obtain, ingredients seem harmless apart, but together make a deadly weapon, and is basically when a revolutionary Libertarian militia finally gains the strength to fight the tyrant, is a terrifying war call that will be heard around the world as a warning to all other nation-states and it’s leader! Also “FOR A NEW LIBERTY” should be a slogan we seriosly consider.
“FREEDOM IS SEXY” is an alright slogan for the western area, however it would be a disaster in the middle east and Africa, these areas are very conservative and a slogan that liberal would be a red flag for those government. The Libertarians there would almost instantly be shut down without any mercy or second thought by their government. Trust me these governments are willing to stone to death woman who have been raped because they were not married to them and as such weren’t, in the government’s eyes “pure”.
Yes! There are going to be alot of disillusioned people out there, and we’re gonna have to grab and deprogram them! And lets not just stop there are strongest emphasis should be on (drum roll please) “ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS”! They’d be a major contribution to the movement and we have to seize every oppurtunity we can find. [I]
I’d be very suprised if the government would help in getting rid of… the governement.
LOL
I don’t think that this ‘Obama’ you speak of will be of any use to the libertarian movement. Let’s never mention him again. It doesn’t seem productive.
Panarchy
PS: I don’t even know (or care) about his election promises!
You misunderstood me, BIG TIME! I’m saying when all these hope filled little sheeple realise their savior, Obama, is a hack, they’ll become disilisioned at such a grand scale, that, we Libertarians, can recruit them and deprogram them. Obama himself won’t help us, but, his failures will. And while we’re at it let’s begin focusing on recruiting “illegal immigrants” to our ranks. Do you understand now?
