Tyrannical, Sociopathic Control-Freaks Need to Check Their Arrogant, Elitist Narcissism!

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

"People who denounce the free market and voluntary exchange, and are for control and coercion, believe they have more intelligence and superior wisdom to the masses. What's more, they believe they've been ordained to forcibly impose that wisdom on the rest of us. Of course, they have what they consider good reasons for doing so, but every tyrant that has ever existed has had what he believed were good reasons for restricting the liberty of others." - Walter E. Williams

My CommentaryCheck your arrogant, elitist narcissism, you tyrannical, sociopathic control-freaks!

Entertain all the delusion of grandeur you’d like, but without our consent, you STILL have no such *privilege* to rule over us. And yet, and we STILL maintain the absolute *right* to peacefully exercise full Individual Sovereignty!

Authoritarians Versus Libertarians

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Freedom Is A State Of Mind,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"Authority": an illusion of a diseased psyche, based entirely in violence and built upon the erroneous and dogmatic belief that some people are Masters who have the moral right to issue commands, and others are Slaves who have a moral obligation to obey the Masters.

My Commentary: “The real division is … between authoritarians and libertarians.” – George Orwell

There are those who love force and control, and there are those who love consent and cooperation. By their fruit will you truly know the difference. 😉 And, rest assured that the chaff will be separated from the wheat!
