Belief that the Government “Cares About” Humanity is as Laughable as Belief in Santa Claus

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork, being shared by an acquaintance from here, and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"Before you make fun of children for believing in Santa Claus, remember, there are still people who believe the gov't cares about them"

“Before you make fun of children for believing in Santa Claus, remember, there are still people who believe the gov’t cares about them”

My Commentary: But… “muh elected representatives” and “muh public servants”… 🙁

The Non-Sequitur Logical Fallacy is the Statist’s Best Friend

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following quote here, being shared by Facebook page, “Zero Aggression,” and originally posted it onto my own wall, along with commentary…

"Logic Fail"

“Logic Fail”

Zero Aggression: To oppose taking money from people under threat of violence to pay for roads, trains, health care, libraries, crime prevention, schools, cleaning up the environment, helping the poor, etc., doesn’t equate to being *against* roads, trains, health care and the rest, as some try to frame it. It’s simply being against the initiation of violence. ~ Stephen Smith

My Commentary: The non-sequitur logical fallacy… The Statist’s best friend!

The Myth of Benevolent Central Authority Fuels The Religion of Statism

I originally posted the following video and commentary onto my Facebook wall…

The Myth Of Benevolent Central Authority:

My Commentary: Statism is a mass delusion of cultish proportions… But, never mind what common decency dictates! That sort of thinking is for naive suckers! Instead, just keep voting to violently impose your will upon your fellow human beings! It’s completely noble, absolutely moral, and for true realists!

“The People” Simply Cannot Delegate to the Government Rights Which They Do Not Have

I originally posted the following video and commentary onto my Facebook wall…

Government is Magic:

My Commentary: If government derives its power from “the people,” then they can only do those things which “the people” have the right to do… “The people” cannot delegate to the government rights which they do not have. This is bullet-proof logic, and yet, for the Statist, it simply does not compute, because they cannot accept the cold, hard truth that NO ONE HAS A RIGHT TO STEAL, OR INITIATE VIOLENCE against others…

“Understand then all of you, especially the young, that to want to impose an imaginary state of government on others by violence is not only a vulgar superstition, but even a criminal work. Understand that this work, far from assuring the well-being of humanity is only a lie, a more or less unconscious hypocrisy, camouflaging the lowest passions we possess.”
– Leo Tolstoy, “The Law of Love and the Law of Violence” (1908)

The State is the Ultimate Manifestation of Evil

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Vast Libertarian Conspiracy,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"The fact is that the average man's love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary, exactly like his love of sense, justice and truth. He is not actually happy when free; he is uncomfortable, a bit alarmed, and intolerably lonely. Liberty is not a thing for the great masses of men. It is the exclusive possession of a small and disreputable minority, like knowledge, courage and honor. It takes a special sort of man to understand and enjoy liberty - and he is usually an outlaw in democratic societies." - H.L. Mencken

My Commentary: The State is the ultimate manifestation of Satan’s power. It is both “the Accuser,” and the well-established “Ruler of the World.” Slaves cling to it as a “necessary evil,” while defending it as humanity’s “savior,” simply because they are yellow-bellied, piss-stained cowards, so deathly afraid that their fellow human beings *might* be criminals, they eagerly sacrifice the lives, liberty and happiness of the entire planet in order to live a pathetic, meaningless, and joyless life of subjugation and harassment, all in the name of “safety” and “order.”
