Extremely false premises and handwavey arguments cascading into nonsense about human nachur and best possible worlds and all that. It's not even philosophy, it's propaganda. It's about as critical as a 12-year-old claiming he is a 'free thinker' because he doesn't want to go to church on Sundays.
Hume is no joke, the only good philosopher of that actual Dark Age. Kant, Spinoza, all that crap is a fucking joke in retrospect. At least Hume is ironic.
They held back philosophy for over 100 years, and that's only the god damn beginning.

i didnt say he is bad because he doesnt align with my worldview, in fact i was a liberal until i realised most of my beliefs were based on theological bullshit
i'll copypaste something funny i found on wiki:

The First Treatise is focused on the refutation of Sir Robert Filmer, in particular his Patriarcha, which argued that civil society was founded on a divinely sanctioned patriarchalism. Locke proceeds through Filmer's arguments, ***CONTESTING HIS PROOFS FROM SCRIPTURE AND RIDICULING THEM AS SENSELESS***, until concluding that no government can be justified by an appeal to the divine right of kings.

The Second Treatise outlines a theory of civil society. Locke begins by describing the state of nature, a picture much more stable than Thomas Hobbes' state of "war of every man against every man," and argues that all men are created equal IN ***THE STATE OF NATURE BY GOD***.

so it seems that it is YOU that thinks anyone not belonging to your ideology is a /pol/ simpleton. fuck off.

this is a strange definition.
First of all, I assume that by "for free" you mean free of charge, and that by putting it within quotation marks you are pointing out how things that are free of charge actually requires resources to produce, just like everything else. If this is correct, it is a kinda weird thing to point out, as it is both a common known fact and not contradictory to the general understanding of the word "free".
And why would you choose to include the second criterion? Would, according to you, a nation where the government owned everything and handed out commodities free of charge while respecting every inhabitants right to reside wherever he or she wants to within the nation be something different than communism?
Also, while I am not the expert on the subject, many of the major forced population transfers in the USSR seems to me not to be arbitrary at all, while perhaps unnecessary. It is really only the kulaks that stand out.

No. I will not have my mind be tainted by perfidious anglo ideology.
I keep in touch with the internet and the mainstream, i.e. the culmination of anglodom, in order to remind myself of this. It is important to remain vigilant, otherwise you might become tempted to read a certain Willhelm von Schüttelspeer, who is apparently some great playwright, or Jeremias von Bogenheim, a most perfidious sophist from what I have gathered.
At times the Anglo might entice you with his 'common law' and so on, but I will not be fooled.
