Have you read Snow Crash? Hyper localized nations that span the globe with pockets of sovereignty…

No, I haven't, sounds interesting. I'm all for decentralization and small competing jurisdictions.

Absolutely! And by the way, this is the essence of capitalist production—creating value on a massive scale. Capital is underutilized if its uses are restricted to niche markets, rather than mass markets.

🎯 Free markets benefit those most who don't discriminate. Even in niche markets it doesn't make sense to discriminate paying customers.

FOR-PROFIT VS. FOR-SENTIMENT ENTERPRISES

The interests of the rational entrepreneur or businessperson are always at war with every form of chauvinism or bigotry. It is necessarily so, if profit-maximisation and sustainable business growth are to be their highest priorities.

The rational entrepreneur is “colour-blind,” gender-blind, religion-blind, ethnicity-blind, as a matter of principle, while conducting his business activities. It is in his best interest to dispense with every business policy rooted in irrational beliefs and sentiments and to uphold reason as the absolute guide to decision-making.

Sustained business growth and the consequent profitability requires the adoption of liberalism as an overarching economic philosophy. That is why the establishment or alteration of a business concern to serve such exclusionary motives as “Christian-only,” “Muslim-only,” “Black-only,” “Male-only,” “Female-only,” “Latino-only,” “Yoruba-only,” etc., would always seem hardly sustainable to me.

Now, my line of argument has nothing against serving a niche market—as long as “niche” in our context implies existing market segments with peculiar demands. My argument is directed at a policy of denying customer access due to prior sentiments—especially that originating in founders or the management of an enterprise—individuals whom, rather than override sentiments with reason, allow emotional biases dictate the course of business activities.

Once again, the ongoing question every entrepreneur must answer is: do you want to enjoy high business growth and high profits—or, do you prefer limited business growth and low profits merely because you prioritise the indulgence of some sentiments?

The fact that you were treated unfairly by a previous, chauvinistic employer, or client is not sufficient grounds to run a business on an unfounded policy of sweeping exclusion. A rational alternative would be acting better than your chauvinistic boss, or choosing not to do business with a particular client, rat he than indicting every member of a social group of the shortcomings of specific individuals. It is very important that one make business decisions amenable to the discipline of purpose—i.e., profit maximisation.

Yup.

Creating value for everyone > creating value for a niche group.

Check out this article on Bitcoin Magazine: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/markets/debt-from-above-the-carbon-credit-coup?utm_source=carrot&utm_medium=partner&utm_campaign=carrot_share

Good article.

Carbon credits, ESG scores and Net Zero inititatives are common features of the U.N. Agenda 21.

It started with the Club of Rome looking for an approach to justify global governance (supra-national regulations) and came to the conclusion that climate was a perfect pretext.

According to Club of Rome, the planet can sustain 1-2 billion people and possibly 8 billion "if we have a strong dictatorship". We passed 8 billion people in 2022-2023 depending on how we measure. According to their ideology, the planet can only sustain the current world population if we live under a dictatorship.

These ideas are reflected in the U.N. Agenda 21 + 2030. The only path for the U.N. to implement their 2030 goals, since most people will reject them, is via surveillance, digital ID, CBDC, social credit scores, censorship, property confiscation and border control.

Thankfully they can't control Bitcoin. Capital and entrepreneurs will move where there is more freedom and less totalitarianism, exercising liberty arbitrage.

What’s so bad about Agenda 21?

I can recommend Rosa Koire's book "Behind the Green Mask - U.N. Agenda 21" from 2011.

Basically, the U.N. Agenda 21 is a comprehensive central planning plan for the 21st century that was signed by 179 nations in Rio De Janeiro in 1992.

Agenda 21 comes with milestones and the next milestone is Agenda 2030.

To summarize, it is a totalitarian hodge-podge of fascism/communism justified on false climate alarmism propaganda.

Thank you, this demonstrates your attitude quite well. Further discussions will be a waste of time.

Just a simple Libertarianism question.

Right, but an introduction is not a debate, it is a hello world type of message.

Replying to unknown

How will libertarianism stop degeneracy and usury in your country without violating the Non-agression principle?

Example

How would a father stop his 12 year old daughter from selling herself for sex without violating the NAP?

That's a strange way to welcome a new person on Nostr, but to each their own.

Hello! I am Michael, a 2024 Mises Institute apprentice from Nigeria. It all started with reading Ayn Rand as a young boy. Thereafter, a burning passion for the liberty philosophy took me down the long road to freedom, where I discovered the series of compelling literature on liberty and the free-market—including the works of Ludwig von Mises, Murray Rothbard, and the Austrian School of Economics. I believe that liberty is indivisible, most essential for self-actualisation, and that society can best attain prosperity under the institution of private property. I seek to spread the libertarian message across Africa and the rest of the world, realising that only political freedom can foster the economic prosperity that Africa and the world greatly seeks. Join me in making this a reality. Cheers! #introductions #introductions

Now let me see you correct your perceived trend in relation to urban heat island effects and solar variation.

The sea ice extent in antarctica is not less than 43 years ago.

The false environmental scare business rooted in U.N. Agenda 21 (+ Agenda 2030) policy documents is the real threat to humanity as a species.

What’s the point of denying an upward temperature trend? Is it so hard to believe burning everything we can get our hands on for centuries has knock on effects down the line? For every denialist graph there’s a counter factual and vice versa, I just don’t get what the grift is I guess…
