Bullshit. What you posted to me in that thread is a cheap shot and false. If that's what you consider proof that you have an accurate perception of libertarianism then may I suggest you ask your old professors for a tuition refund on your courses in critical thinking. |
I have to agree with xouper here, Sauron. Which is to say I don't think it's logical to infer anything about his economic viewpoint from his opinion that Microsoft's reversal on support of Bill 1515 is not that big of a deal. I don't really have an opinion on whether you should ask your old professors for a refund.  |
In my opinion, xouper is trying to square the circle here: he wants to beleive that a company can be friendly toward a group, and yet be neutral about legislation critical to that group's civil liberties.
I'm friendly to my nextdoor neighbor and her causes, but I'm not going to help her out when her husband beats her black and blue - how does that little moral dilemma work out, hmm?
You disagree - that's fine. Everyone here is free to disagree without coming to physical blows. Or the fear of massive editing.
