A question for Libertarians.

[Rob Roy]

The fact is capitalism and anarchism are mutually exclusive terms. Capitalism is inherently hierarchical and inevitably leads to inequality.

Free trade is not synonymous with capitalism.

Okay. Need any quail?

 

[abandonconflict]

The human condition inevitably leads to inequality.

Survival of the fittest is an inapt description of natural selection. It was not a phrase coined by Darwin but by laissez-faire economist Herbert Spencer. While an instinctive desire for an advantage over others may indeed be natural, so too is it natural for the less fortunate to fight for equality.

You ought not to make broad statements about human nature. They reflect only your opinion.

You make it sound as if equality was a staple of all societies until recently.

It never has been. It's far more equal today.

Your mother is a fallacy.

*grade school flash-back*

 

[Rob Roy]

Your mother is a fallacy.

No mothers please.

 

[abandonconflict]

Your mama is so classless, she could be a socialist utopia.

I never met yer mum; she may be very sweet. every other generation, they say..............

You make it sound as if humans were created by some sort of magic with the characteristic inequality built right in.
