Radicals

in voluntaryist •  7 years ago 

Someone told me yesterday that I'm a "radical" because I'm a voluntaryist. What they fail to understand is that you will NEVER hear of a voluntaryist perpetrating a mass shooting, you will NEVER hear of a voluntaryist committing an act of terrorism, you will NEVER hear of a voluntaryist inciting a riot or burning down a city. Voluntaryists believe that the individual is important and that each individual has worth that isn't based on their gender, religion, sexual orientation, race and all the other nonsense the collectivists have come up with to try to pit us against one another. Voluntaryists are against aggression...not only individual aggression, but also institutional aggression.
Personally, I would never force anyone to give up their government, I'd just ask that they show me that same respect when I say I'd like to opt-out of that government and its endless system of control mechanisms, theft and violence. The true radicals are the ones who believe they have the right to force others to live a certain way, or under a certain system of government...but that's just not me, and it's not voluntaryism. ---Scott Robart
