>libertarian with conservative cultural values
"Conservative libertarians" are just engaging in attempting to naturalize their ideological presuppositions when there shouldn't even be a need to do that. At the bottom of things liberalism was based on quasi-egalitarian notions, market equilibration e.g. wages can only be exceptionally high because there must be some form of artificial barriers to entry, etc, etc. Janitors would train to become coders when the price signals direct them to, wages would always equilibrate in a real free market and no general failures, such as gluts, can emerge because factors are totally mobile and interchangeable and supply creates its own demand as long as there's not something "artificial" stoping it from happening. Once you introduce new categories, like race (le bell curve), into the analysis though all the nice pure economic concepts end up being completely irrelevant and perhaps falsified (even though they're formulated in an unfalsifiable manner). It always empirically becomes necessary to promote certain ideological notions to mitigate issues that shouldn't even arise on your own terms, nature never seems to work just like it should and the real problems have to be explained.

The Nazis expanded the welfare state and government control over the economy. This is indisputable. Out of the bowels of Mussolini (who led the socialist part of Italy and was congratulated by Lenin) came Nazism to germany, where censorship, protectionism, strong regulations on the economy, free education, and free healthcare were mandated. Leftism always supports brutalist, top-down methods of policing the population. They might be slightly "right" of Stalinism in an economic sense, but they were still a socialist, leftist invention.

Then during wartime it increased, but that's understandable. And during war economy it was complete. Much like in any state that declared war economy. You are wrong calling them out when the academic discussion in itself is going on about why did Nazis refrain from nationalizations.

>in October 1933, every farm up to 308 acres was declared a hereditary estate-it could not be sold, divided, mortgaged or foreclosed on for debt. With the death of its owner, it would pass to his nearest male relative, who in turn was obligated to provide an income and education for his relatives. The peasant farmer was called a bauer or peasant, an "honored title" that he forfeited if he broke the "peasant honor code"-that is, if he stopped farming.
>For its first year, the regime concentrated on a program of government grants of loan credit; stimulus bills for public works, such as road-building and forestation; and it "targeted tax cuts" to enterprises that increased capital expenditure and increased their number of employees. But from 1934 onward, the implementation of the Wehrwirtschaft, or war economy, became the model to which business and labor were subordinated and which was designed to function, not just in time of war, but in the period before war began.
>In 1936, Göring's Four Year Plan was inaugurated. This made Göring, who was almost as ignorant about economics as Hitler, Germany's economic dictator. In the drive for a total war economy, protectionism was decreed and autarchy the desire-the so-called "Battle of Production." Consumer imports were nearly eliminated, price and wage controls were enacted, and vast state projects were built to manufacture raw materials.
>Businessmen and entrepreneurs were smothered by red tape, were told by the state what they could produce and how much and at what price, burdened by taxation, and were forced to make "special contributions" to the party. Corporations below a capitalization of $40,000 were dissolved and the founding of any below a capitalization of $2,000,000 was forbidden, which wiped out a fifth of all German businesses.

>In February 1935 all employment came under the exclusive control of government employment offices which determined who would work where and for how much. And on June 22, 1938, the Office of the Four Year Plan instituted guaranteed employment by conscripting labor. Every German worker was assigned a position from which he could not be released by the employer, nor could he switch jobs, without permission of the government employment office. Worker absenteeism was met with fines or imprisonment-all in the name of job security. A popular Nazi slogan at the time was "the Common Interest before Self"!

No organized social, sport or recreational groups-from chess and soccer clubs to bird-watching, to adult education, to the theatre, opera, and music concerts-were allowed to function without the oversight of the state. Besides the social costs of not trusting people to be able to look after themselves, there were the enormous costs of this vast bureaucracy that policed the private activities of the citizens.

>Local traditions were attacked and eliminated, private firearms were outlawed and confiscated, and the amalgamation of the various Christian churches and the elimination of Christian symbols from public places and schools was attempted. Education, too, came under central control under the Reich Minister of Education, which designed the curriculum, rewrote textbooks, and licensed teachers.

>The cartelization of industry-which began before the Nazi regime-was made compulsory, and the Ministry of Economics was empowered to form new compulsory cartels or to force firms to join existing ones. The maze of business and trade associations created to lobby the Weimar Republic for various considerations in the law were nationalized and made compulsory for all businesses.
>The Reich Economic Chamber was established on top of all these associations. It consisted of seven national economic groups, twenty-three economic chambers, seventy chambers of handicrafts, and one hundred chambers of industry and commerce. From these bureaucracies and the numerous offices and agencies of the Ministry of Economics and the Office of the Four Year Plan rained down a flood of decrees and laws, which in turn created for businesses the need on the one hand for lawyers and a legal department to understand these rules, and on the other, for a systematic regime of bribing officials.

i live in a third world country where 3/4 of the population constantly vote for socialism,, you have no idea the impact it has on our society, some days half the country shuts down and nothing gets done because workers in the transport system are protesting, not only is everything always broken but breaking public property is a political act and you often see "protestors" with hammers breaking the fucking sidewalk.
People form hierarchies on top of hierarchies on top of hierarchies and the people on top are borderline gang members so those are the values everyone aspires to follow, college students dont want to be doctors, lawyers or engineers, they want to reach some position where they have enough power to never have to work, thats students not people who have been working for 30 years and are now too tired or looking for more status
There is so much corruption and so much theft at every level its amazing how this country is still standing, you are supposed and expected to steal if you have the chance

As such i cant help but look at libertarianism as the only possible solution, people just dont value themselves in socialism, only opportunity , if you cant use someone to get more value out of your life then that person doesnt matter

Distinct? Do you mean separate, or is english not your native tongue?

Nonetheless, it's still socialist.

but the academic literature is literally baffled why Nazis didn't undertake nationalization of economy? How was it completely top-down controlled if they didn't practice hands free nationalization prior to economy for war in 33-36? I'd even argue they began to probably start for war in '33 anyways.

That's the point - he didn't ditch it. He doubled down. He doubled down so hard that there was no feasible way he'd be able to pay off the debt he accrued before the war's beginning, without any way to squeeze out more money out of the german citizenry other than straight-out theft. Let me repeat: The centralization of the nazi-german economy and unlimited spending led to ruinous debt and belabored economy before the fucking war even began.

if you dont see any value in yourself you wont see any value in anything or anyone, as i said students dont want to become doctors because people look up to doctors or because its a position of high status, let alone helping people.
Medicine students want to become doctors because doctors get to work whenever they want, get paid a lot and they dont stay unemployed for long, its all about getting as much money for doing as little work, over 30% of the population works in the public sector and even more would move there if they could and even with so many public employees nothing gets ever done
You would think at least the poor have it better right? well there are people living without gas, electricity or water and little access to food who voted them because they where promised help, when they won they started working on creating the infrastructure to provide gas to households where temperature gets below freezing levels at night, they spent a fortune and did nothing, people froze and starved to death, there are pictures showing all the abandoned materials that haven't been touched for years and the little work they got done got ruined so hard by sheer neglect it all has to be scrapped to start scratch, meanwhile students who supported them got free phones and low rent accommodation, some drive cars nobody can afford even tho they never had a job

Just be honest with yourself, the reason you deplatform people is that you have to have total control of the discourse.

The word libertarian is just a buzz word that has been redefined by a couple rich people and their marketing folks to make an authoritarian political program seem like it has any intellectual justification. 'Real libertarians' -- people who think that LIBERTY is of chief importance in ethical and political matters and have actually read foundational works like "On Liberty" -- are no longer what comes to mind when the word 'libertarian' is mentioned. Today's 'libertarians' don't talk about liberty, and argue for ideas which are completely opposed to libertarian values.

As you can see just from the discussion occurring right now in this read, 'libertarians' are essentially ideologues that aren't even taken seriously on basic cable.

You're so consumed by ideology that you can't even see it. It's kind of cute to be honest. Why is it that political discourse must be rational? Where does this conception of rationality arise? I'm sure you'd be willing to acknowledge that no one's politics is purely rational, but what gives you reason to believe that the thing that draws people to whatever other movements are the "rational" elements of their discourse? This certainly isn't the case for the contemporary left which has embraced empathy (which again in their use is nothing more than an ideological term) as a core value. The demand and definition of rationality you offer is nothing more than leftist ideology given new titles only exists because the left has the power to force them into existence.

>Oh yeah, the radical left has definitely done that. There's absolutely nowhere for right wingers to express their opinions in order to get elected.
They really have. The last year should have demonstrated how meaningless elections are to the total domination of the far left as they've consistently obstructed the actions of of a right wing government with cultural power alone. It actually is really impressive, but that is only the most superficial aspect their project. Every aspect of human existence has been broken down and reconstructed in order to advance leftism. The most important aspect of this language. The left has reconstructed language so that all discourse that occurs is either explicitly leftist in nature or is in the process of becoming leftist. Even a place like /pol/ (though communication in text provides some resistance to this) by the mere act of communication through language itself is advancing the cause of the political left.

Mass Effect and Battlefield are wank because of the larger trends in gaming. That is, game developers *know* idiots will buy whatever games they shit out because of the brand. How is Mass Effect Andromeda any different to other sequels that are fucking terrible compared to their predecessors? Sonic is now basically a joke, was SEGA made up of "SJW" staff? Jak: TLF was a rubbish game, didn't know Naughty Dog were SJWs as well. Its nothing to do with "SJWs" and everything to do with larger trends in consumerism and the fact that most games and movies tend to drop off in quality as more sequels are released because the studios get burnt out and forget what made those things good in the first place or switch teams that don't have the same artistic vision as the people who created the franchise.

This is why Nintendo games haven't been effected by this trend as badly, because Japanese companies generally have a "job for life" philosophy and retain old talent.

so are you going to ignore how the devs of the mass effect, admitted to doing what they did on the purpose of being sjw, didn't the lead dev on mass effect take to twatter saying how much he wants to stick it to racisist and he excluded white from the game almost completely, to the point you could not make a white character at first till they patched it in a hurry even going so far as to rewrite cannon to say whites went extinct, battlefield they did the infamous 'blacking' of the soldiers for specifically sjw purposes.
and sure bad games get released, like you mentioned sonic. because of industry not caring, but there is a fine line between 'bad game' try again, and sjw nonsense
it just so happens that more and more vidya are being infected with sjw nonsense
as for nintendo, they are japs that mostly don't care about identity politics, you can see this when sjw's attacked weeb culture, and the jap artists they flagged down to shame brushed them off as crazy. nintendo are japs that do not care for politics, and are largely untouched, tho they have their own problem of not changing style of games, they still don't do sjw nonsense, even when they dressed link up as a trap, its cause its funny or fetish, but not serious politics or a 'statement'

No, it has to be *deconstructed* in order to find where the system discriminates against people.

Well if he wanted to exclude white people specifically, he did a piss poor job given most of the characters are white and the default skin for the Ryder's are white. And if he did say that on twatter, then he's a bigot. There's difference between inclusion and exclusion. No SJW with a brain "hates" white people or wants them gone.

>battlefield they did the infamous 'blacking' of the soldiers for specifically sjw purposes.

Yes, to include black soldiers who fought during WW1. Is that such a terrible thing? Are you against freedom of creativity?

>it just so happens that more and more vidya are being infected with sjw nonsense

Well so what, has any SJW asked for games that don't contain ideas about inclusion or avoiding stereotypes to be banned outright? Cuphead overtly resembles cartoons and motifs that hark back to racist caricatures of blacks being addicted to gambling or "craps", was that banned? No, it was a huge success.

>they are japs that mostly don't care about identity politics

Again with this shit. So for you, a bad game isn't a game that has a shitty narrative or poor presentation, its based soley on how tits and arse or how many brown people it excludes. Pokemon S&M has almost no white people in it, they're almost all depictions of native Hawaiians or Japanese people, is that SJW "nonsense"?

During the Bush-era, libertarianism and "the Old Right" (Alfred Jay Nock, Sen. Robert Taft, Rothbard) was the obvious rallying point for an Americans on the "Right" but against the Iraq War and "big gov't conservatism". There isn't a strong collectivist far-right tradition in the US (just as there isn't a strong Marxist tradition), but the Old Right/libertarian tradition is very strong and has been highly systematized and explained over the years, culminating with Rothbard. Both Catholic trads (Deenan, First Things), neoreaction (Moldbug), and alt-right white nationalists are essentially European imports. Americans that found the American Old Right tradition unworkable or doomed to fail started reading books by authoritarian Europeans of various stripes, or at least adopting their views.

And then it has to be reconstructed in some way, and it's only done by those doing the deconstructing, and they have building on the foundation of language itself have made every aspect of existence oriented so that it can exclusively to advance the causes of the political left. This is done in accordance with their symbiotic relationship to the business and political elite. This means that all their criticism amounts to little more than an academic exercise, and that their dominance and the dominance of those elites can be maintained. And the feisty ones can get their rocks off by violently crushing the only ones willing to meaningfully stop these abuses. The far-right had a similar relationship with these elite in the 20s, but our techno-globalized world demands that tables be turned.

Every facet of our our political discourse down to the words themselves exists in such a way that it renders leftism the only valid solution to any discussion, and ever discussion that occurs in the western world (political or not) today comes to this conclusion.

The far-left would ultimately have it so there is no elite. The reason Neo-liberals take some talking points from the far-left is to convince everyone they are leftists while continuing the system that benefits them. Obviously if you're in power you need to secure that power through promises otherwise people will depose you.

And those are the only ones whose politics are in anyway rational. For most people, political allegiance is comes from the feelings they derive from the imagery of a platform's fulfilled promises. Those which make them fell good, they support, and those those that make them feel sad inside, they oppose.
>Nazism however is not rational because it doesn't benefit anyone, even whites.
Are you telling me that before it was destroyed it didn't even benefit the leadership of the party? Do you really believe that? I think your conception of "beneficial", as with your concept of rationality, is highly ideological and arbitrary.
>Too be honest, I think of young white people sucked into the alt-right as victims of their own stupidity too be honest.
I do agree to some extent, but think it primarily comes from the open hostility the political left has towards. While I don't identify with the alt-right (I classify my politics merely anti-leftism), that pushed me from the left was statements made by their own intellectuals and activists. I never fell for the tired right-wing talking points.
>Seriously, have you never read philosophy? Its not based on feelings at all. I won't go into platonism or nominalism, but seriously, read a book dude.
Read some Descartes when I was younger; guess it failed to leave much of an impact on me. Still doesn't mater. Empathy is a feeling, and if you're empathizing, you're using your feelings. You can have a rational response to this, but it doesn't change the action itself.
>Not really for anyone except a few cranks. The majority of society have no problem coexisting.
The post-war construction of humanity is being torn apart at its seams, and it seems that not even consumerism is enough to hold it together. Go outside talk to people who have to live politics and know it as more than just an academic exercise.
>First indication you don't know what you're talking about. The far-left hate Liberalism and cooperation with corporations.
Well then they should put their money where their moth is and stop doing. I've seen many a leftist make this claim, but all the evidence is to the contrary. I think most realize that it violates their convictions, but it is the only practical option they have at the moment.
