If he ever gets around to actually addressing the substance, it might get interesting. Instead, he seems to have a hundred different ways to repeat the false assertions: "You consented! It's legitimate! They represent us!" Oddly, he then proclaims that he doesn't believe in morality. I'm not sure how someone can so zealously advocate for the RIGHT to rule (political "authority"), if he doesn't believe in such a thing as "right."

As a moral relativist, I will contend that the NAP is the best defense of that relativity.

Hmm.... Sounds like an article I should write...

Would be glad to read it.

No kidding, eh? I tried following along as best I could, but some of those Gladwell-esque leaps of logic were just too great for me.

Thanks for reading my work! Feel free to point out which parts you found unclear and I'll explain my logic in greater depth.
