No, I'm painting historical secessionist libertarian movements as secessionist libertarian movements.
The abolition and replacement of the state.
Reformist libertarians are categorically excluded from the context of my criticism.
- stale2002 4y agoOk, but the point here is that "reformist libertarians" are the much larger group. The vast majority of people who call themselves libertarians are merely moderately economically right wing and moderately socially left wing.
- elif 4y agoThat has no bearing on the original proposal vitalik is responding to being tinged with the nation-building folly of seccessionists.
- stale2002 4y agoSure it does. It has something to do with it, because there are ways of achieving their goals without some massive, giant, violent revolution. Special economic zones, are the most common example of this, and are created by countries in a perfectly legal way, without some violent revolution. Using financial resources to get a country to create a special economic zone would be both reformist, non revolutionary or violent, and has historical examples of being achieved.
