They did read and they did understand. Hoppe’s rational arguments are very much on point. But Hoppe did not give any personal preferences on the subject. I’m sure he has opinions but he keeps them to himself and his circle, whatever they are.

These guys didn’t utter any personal preference, and we were just hanging out. Very NPC behavior.

Libertarianism isn’t a source of morality. You get that from somewhere else.

Morality can be found starting from the NAP, or as an extension of natural law. I totally disagree that Hoppe don't have a personal moral value of not wanted immigrants not respecting private property as he calls them invaders. The same way he calls those that "work" for the state parasites.

I’m sure he does, and you can guess his opinions when you read between the lines. He doesn’t say them on the record though. He’s always very rigorous when speaking publicly so that he doesn’t stray far from infallible logic, and I find that admirable.

My problem with these guys is that they think they’re Hoppe, so try to be as rigorous as he is when speaking. Except they’re not academics, they’re not public personae. We were just hanging out, yet they did not speak from any personal point of view.
