EL BROMANCE posted:it's frustrating that there's opportunity for a bunch of libertarian fuckwits, who are close to putting their money where their mouths are and ultimately providing the world with a ton of laughs, but someone is standing in their way. let them settle and broadcast the whole thing online so we can watch it all unfold in horror. We are in the Wink Off bros era of the rich. Trust fund kiddies who have never worked, never ran a company, never done anything, but have money and power because of daddy.

Crazy Achmed posted:Are they seriously expecting Serbia/Croatia to say "sure, you can have some of our sovereign territory, it's not like we fought bitter and brutal wars in the recent past that established these borders, just go ahead and take it off us"? that conflict was mostly "don't let them have that" rather than "we must have that", I think, so it could be ok also, pick muslimness carefully

fermun posted:they built a camp on the Serbian side which supports 100 people, they have set up water tanks and generators, latrines, they have high speed internet service, they have dug food cellar-like storage by digging big holes and putting plastic barrels with lids in there, and built pontoon boats so that they can build a bridge to the territory they claim in about an hour and so send people over weekly to protest where they are again kicked out and have to go back across the bridge to the camp. How has Serbia not kicked them out yet?

Tayter Swift posted:what does this even mean a libertarian thing is that people should have the right to voluntarily sell themselves into slavery or indentured servitude. of course with their legal heroin laws too, a lot of people would become addicted to heroin, sell themselves into slavery, and be a heroin-addicted prostitute with no legal recourse for the rest of their lives. libertarians say you fully own your own body, so if you own your own body, you should be able to sell ownership to someone else, then all the labor you do belongs to them instead.

I mean, there are dumber things you could do while drunk/high than sell yourself into slavery for more drugs you could sell yourself into slavery and then kill your new master actually that is probably not very dumb in libertopia, you have an indisputed claim on a certain amount of their drugs but could probably weasel your way out of any actual responsibility for their murder

rjmccall posted:I mean, there are dumber things you could do while drunk/high than sell yourself into slavery for more drugs I look forward to the first case where a slave kills their master to get out of servitude, and the master’s debtor not only demands the slave as part of the estate, but says he can get more out of the slave’s organs than the slave’s actual work.
