BTW the history of Russian / Soviet Union election meddling goes back a long time...
Russia has meddled in our elections for 100 years and we have meddled in theirs...nothing new here just butthurt Snowflake losers trying to assuage their pain of losing to Donald Trump.

I would start by reading 5 books. They will change your life.

For a New Liberty: The Libertarian Manifesto - Murray N. Rothbard
Human Action - Ludwig von Mises
Economics in One Lesson - Henry Hazlitt
No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority - Lysander Spooner
Liberty Defined - Ron Paul

Best wishes in your pursuit of liberty.

Anarchy is the only way to be truly free. Praxeology shows that what you think will happen during anarchy won't happen.

Read Human Action by Mises. It will explain everything.

Like I've said, conservatives are so close to getting it; they just have to overcome that last 25% of Statism.

I did not take it in a bad way. No need to apologize but thanks nonetheless.

More men are becoming red pilled as well, understanding what truly drives women from an evolutionary perspective thus more are openly also going MGTOW. With that there will be less of the stereotypical provider beta male around which women seem to take for granted.

Its a movement that is spreading surprisingly fast despite attempts to stop it.

Interesting post
The theory that the rage, extremism, disdain, disruptions, violence and criminal behavior in America are master minded by an external power
I kind of thought it was the lead in the water

So, do some of y all think that the "media" is sending out tweets from POTUS Twitter account?
And if not, where do you think all the negativity is coming from?
It s coming from Trump and if ya don't know now ya know.

We ALL get our news about the state of the union from Trump.
Are you all saying he is lying about who he is and that his tweets are NOT reflective of his agenda?

He is standing in front of the camera, he sends out huckaby sanders to speak for him in front of the camera, his kid cyber bully's like he does.
Are you saying these are actor s and we ve all been duped into thinking our society is in chaos when it is not?
All so Putin can have a laugh?

Trump thinks he is the smartest guy in the room and Putin thinks he s the smartest guy in the room East.

They are both simple liars.

Listen to what he says and watch what he does.
He isn't hiding and the media is NOT having to make sh#&t up to pay their advertisers.

America will be okay.
Were the smartest people on the planet! !

Exactly. I agree 100%.

Besides, we ancaps don't want to be involved in governance--we want to abolish the State altogether.
If you voted for Gary Johnson I suggest that critical thinking might need some work.

Americans animosity toward each other grows
I don't know. I hate you people pretty much the same as I always have.

I hope the feeling is mutual.
