Been awhile since I’ve made a real video for my economics and libertarianism YouTube channel. I think the message in this video is important needed longer form articulation. Video: https://t.co/gcw5MlUGCE #Libertarian #amliberty

Pet Peeve: that there is a silver bullet strategy or tactic to a free world. Nope, it is all of the above, let’s go through it… #Libertarian #amliberty

Bottom Line I’m for free markets in everything: family formation, culture, relationships, migration, capital, etc. I’m against protectionism in any of the above. Love for others tends to lead to free markets, fear/hate of others leads to protectionism. #amliberty

Coexistance and Harmony aren't the same thing. I totally believe diverse individuals can coexist peacefully. That peace isn't always harmonious, and that's ok. #Libertarian #amliberty

Figured it may not be a bad time to remind everyone why the Libertarian Party did, does and will always matter. Give it a listen. #amliberty #Libertarian https://t.co/sPEmcL6ruC

The answer isn’t to judge those who are in fear but encourage the inner reflections that can help us overcome that fear and anxiety that causes some to resort to oppressive, divisive and sometimes violent responses. #amliberty

People are always quick to judge the more powerful entities in a conflict for being overly aggressive and fearful. But fear can often be irrational, how often do we kill a harmless bug out of fear when we are clearly the more powerful actor in the conflict. #amliberty

Libertarianism is about diminishing the role of the state in how society governs itself and infusing as much consent into it as possible. This nuance and distinction matters. #amliberty
— Alex Merced (@alexmerced) May 7, 2021
When people have the power to choose and consent, bad governance can be held accountable. Monopolies over violence do not have that consent/choice mechanism to reign them in leading to abuses. #amliberty

All these governing bodies have practices of varying quality (governance). Yes, we want better governance in society. This usually means governments need more accountability which is where voluntarism comes in. #amliberty
— Alex Merced (@alexmerced) May 7, 2021
A government that is also a state can lead to some pretty bad abuses but not all governments are states. HOAs, corporate boards are governments of voluntary associations. #amliberty

The state, being a monopoly on the “legitimate” use of violence has the issue you see with any monopoly: increased costs, lower quality and lack of accountability. #amliberty
— Alex Merced (@alexmerced) May 7, 2021
The State, Government and Governance are different things. One is a monopoly on the use of violence, the next a body that governs a group of people, and the last the practices of governing. This distinction matters. #amliberty

Often times, the most passion filled fights aren’t the most productive, and the most productive fights aren’t the most passion filled. 🤷🏽♂️ #amliberty #libertarian

Reminder, the best way to promote your cause is to speak to positives of your cause and ignore the competition. Attacks bring attention to their targets, make them sympathetic and your cause less. Being positive is strategically smart. #amliberty
