''History is above all else the creation and recording of the intellectual, moral and aesthetic heritage of mankind; progress is the increasing abundance, use, preservation and transmission of that heritage. To those of us who study history not merely as a warning reminder of man's follies and crimes but also as a remembrance of generative souls, the past ceases to be a depressing chamber of horrors; it becomes a celestial city, a spacious country of the mind, wherein a thousand saints, statesmen, inventors, scientists, poets, artists, musicians, philosophers and lovers still live and speak, teach and carve and sing.'' - Will and Ariel Durant

I firmly believed in MC when they first started and took over. They have just shown me they aren't interested in actually being electable. They just want to virtue signal online.
Libertarians don’t want hate. We don’t want you to hate each other; we want a society built on respect, consent, and cooperation. We don’t even want you to hate the state; we just want it to stay out of the way of every individual’s ability to live and thrive as they choose.
Really good thread on Civil Asset Forfeiture. Complements the work done by @flatwaterfreep writer @nataliaalamdari did a few weeks ago. https://t.co/IdSkQ0xPUH
There are some bad faith people in the "liberty" movement.
She just disassociated from @ChaseForLiberty. The stated reason is that he was rude (he wasn't, she was rude to him).
But this is the real reason. When people tell you who they are, believe them.
