Reasonable people can definitely disagree on tactic; the contradiction inherent in using the state's process to eliminate the state is not lost on anyone - Adam included (I assume). One could definitely make a good faith argument that it's a waste of time and resources, a la a slave expressing a preference for no master instead of expressing a preference for one of two masters.
All that being said, is there a tactical advantage to the fighting? Adam's goals appear to be the same as Larken's, even if they disagree entirely on method. Does Adam's campaign of political libertarianism detract from the sort of technolibertarianism or personal choice libertarianism that others may embrace to side-step or fight the state?
I haven't seen Adam condemn anyone who uses methods other than his. I guess I'm unclear on the purpose of fighting philosophical although non-tactical allies.
Well said, news2share. I hope this next debate clears up a few things. time will tell

Great point Ford! This is exactly how I feel about it, and something I try to focus on a LOT when dealing with activists. If the end goal is the same... You don't have to agree or support what they're doing, but bickering isn't going to help bring more people into the philosophy.
