1. Many libertarians have the same opinions as us on non-economic foreign policies of the West (seeing through “human rights” claims as hypocrisy to justify war that is waged for resources and geographical control, what coups/assassinations/terrorists are ClA ops, etc.) because these are all state activities and they are anti-state, at least in the current form in the West

  2. Blumenthal’s opinions on the situation of vaccines in USA is very libertarian

  3. Clearly not a communist given he has never spoken positively about any AES and never explicitly supported enemies of the West

Yea idk that’s all I got lol

    are covid vaccine mandates necessarily good, even? we all talk about china’s success with maintaining very low covid rates and deaths, and even they don’t have mandates. i believe about 80% of their population has been vaccinated.

    even though he doesn’t know it, max’s argument is basically “a bourgeois government is doing it, therefore it either won’t be done well or will be done in their interests and not ours.” this is fundamentally true, and i think is the source of much of american postmodern skepticism. how this affects how one should view the policy i’m not sure about really
