As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Government Does Not Exist,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…
“You don’t like it? Then, move to another plantation!”
My Commentary: The “logic” of the average Statist… has all of the depth and consistency of a puddle.
As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “I Fucking Hate Government,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…
“Statists be all, ‘Sit your black ass in the back!,’ ‘Stand your black ass up!'”
My Commentary: Statism is a cult…
As I scrolled through some Facebook pages, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Campaign For a Longer Leash“ and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

As long as you have a master, you are not free
My Commentary: Pssst… spread the word.
As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Anarchy, Natural Law, Truth and Freedom.,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…
“It seems strange that any thinking human being would not be naturally open and receptive to the idea that he owns himself and should be in charge of his own life, unhindered by any human ‘authority.’ However, the average person who hears such a message often lashes out at the messenger, insists that actual freedom, a world without masters and subjects, would mean chaos and destruction, and then vehemently advocates the continued enslavement of all of mankind, including himself.” – Larken Rose
My Commentary: Debate a Statist about government, and you’ll soon discover that they truly believe “FREEDOM IS SLAVERY.”
The following debate originally took place upon my Facebook wall, after I posted artwork being shared by the page, “V is for Voluntary”…
Rayn:
“Democide: if you support government, you’ve probably never heard of this.”
Daniel F.: And when corporations essentially have all the power of governments, what’s the difference?
Rayn: So, you’re telling me that you STILL haven’t realized that governments are the ones responsible for “legally” CREATING these “power[ful]” corporations you speak of? LOL!
Either way, both of these legal fictions essentially function as protective Straw-men, by LIMITING THE PERSONAL LIABILITY of those humans who operate them, while maximizing their personal profitability! But, alas, you’re missing the point of this post…
Did you even take a moment to notice the comment that originally came with this picture before posting your response to it? It says, “Statists be like, ‘but corporations are evil’.” In other words, your Red herring fallacy of a response is such a predictably off-topic digression, it might as well have been pre-programmed into you by an outside influence. As it stands, I view it as your means of quickly eliminating the cognitive dissonance you experienced when you attempted to reconcile your active support of Statism with the fact that it is WELL-ESTABLISHED as the number one murderer of human beings around the globe for the last century.
“Governments murdered 262,000,000 disarmed civilians in the 20th century. Anti-Statism is a life saver.”

I would suggest you engage in some deeply Critical thinking about the topic of hundreds of millions being murdered by their own governments, aka “Democide” and you’ll soon find yourself completely out of excuses for supporting the State, and might even feel ashamed that you ever even remotely consented to such an abominable system of coercion, exploitation and violence against your fellow man.
Otherwise, simply ignore me as a “lunatic fringe,” and keep on voting harder for more of that “necessary” evil (the lesser of two, of course) to keep you feeling safe and secure in your person. If that’s the case, then I wish you well in your journey, and hope that you are able to find some semblance of comfort in being “ruled” by an “elect”-caste of sociopathic, morally-inferior “betters.”
In the words of Samuel Adams:
“Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”
