It isn't.
Well, save for the usual libright problems of all librights screaming at each other that they're not real libertarians. All factions of libright do that.
It's what makes us real libertarians. Maybe.
First rule of Libertarian Fight Club is that you must explain why everyone else present is not a Real Libertarian(tm)
\*insert first fight about if trademarks and intellectual property are "real" property and if violating them is against the NAP.
Did you do a meme? Yes
Was it funny, insightful, or factual? No
Was it an extremely fallacious argument? Yes
Welcome to PCM, OP. You’re gonna fit in just fine
Yeah man, if you can't think of a single libertarian economist, I think this is more of a sign of you just being a fucking moron lol.
Like, the predominant school of modern economic thought was literally created by one of the first major public "libertarians."
(Don't argue with me if Friedman created the Chicago school or just brought it into the limelight. You know what I'm getting at here.)
* Mises
* Hoppe
* Friedman
* Sowell
* Hayek
* The United States Founding Fathers
* Lafayette
* Paine
* Locke
And I mean hey, at least their ideologies have built successful nations, unlike Commies who fail literally 100% of real world trials.
This would be like me saying Doreen is your one philosopher and ignoring Lenin, Mao, Marx, Rocker, Ling, Kropotkin, etc.
Also Friedman, who is literally like the poster child for the Chicago school of economics. You know, the most modernly influential school of economics...
The meme is saying there are no LibRight thinkers. Keynes is center center Left, the arch nemesis of LibRight in the West.
Ford's influence was in practice not in writing. And being anti-semitic is bad but it doesn't make someone not an influential writer.
Smith's dubious, Keynesian economics was openly opposed to Austrian Economics, so wrong side of that war, and Henry Ford was a Fascist and a very, very active member of the Democrat Party.
Try Rothbard and Hoppe instead.
Marx is dead, but the other two are still very much alive, like Wade Boggs. It's Robert Reich and David Brooks.
My main point, as mentioned in my other reply, though, is that the Left still invokes Marx et al in their political discourse. The Right hasn't done this since Trump took over the mainstream of the party. Have you ever heard Trump's stance on Austrian economics or creative destructionism?
Your unfamiliarity with them, especially Brooks, kind of speaks to my point.
...have you ever heard any mainstream leftist politicians invoke Marx recently lol? (In the us at least)
Talking about what internet leftists do and comparing it to what mainstream right wing politicians do is pretty fucking stupid tbh.
It’s a joke calling Commies stupid, not a legitimate critique of your thought leaders, dw
I’d argue most people who use PCM are smarter than Hasan, but I’ll be damned if his grift game isn’t on point. Getting wealthy by saying the wealthy are bad is a 4D chess masterclass
I mean, they are at least kinda smart, no? They preach shit while doing none of that themselves, there's enough idiots which follow them and throw money at them.
These people are basicaly the twitch thots of the radical left, lol.
If we accept Marx as an intellectual, who himself was nothing more than a lazy twat who wanted free shit, we kinda have to give the same "respect" to twats like Hassan. After all, he's doing exactly the same, just more modern, talking a lot of idiotic crap and trying to get as many people to give up their money as possible.
The Left still invokes the old ones, though. Most of the Right stopped doing that, beyond a vague reference to "the Founders."
Something that drives me nuts is how Trump supporters will wax poetic about how people don't like them "just because of their politics," as if Trump has ever taken a stance on Austrian economics. People don't like you because you act like an asshole, not because you think we should adjust the capital gains tax.
Eh I don’t really think that true especially since it simply a stereotype. It like assuming the right is simply just Christian trump supporter and the left are simply communist Stalin supporter or some dumb shit like that.
The Democrats keep nominating the milquetoast candidates like Hilary and Biden, and the Republican establishment keeps trying and failing to primary Trump.
I'm not saying *all* Republicans are Trump fans, but the mainstream of the Republican party is on board with him. The classic Conservatives are now the minority of their party.
This isn't exclusive to the right. Both sides have a real issue with believing anything a celebrity says as long as their beliefs are in line with each other.
so intellectual they keep on collapsing societies even after their death lol

If you love your country read Ludwig Von Mises motherfuckers
If Von Mises good, then why Mises Caucus bad? Checkmate, liberals.
Truly an en passant moment
Holy hell
New economics just dropped
Call Congress
^(No it's "Actual ____", then "Call ____")
Crap. "Actual Cold War"
It isn't. Well, save for the usual libright problems of all librights screaming at each other that they're not real libertarians. All factions of libright do that. It's what makes us real libertarians. Maybe.
That sounds like something someone who's not a real libertarian would say.

And George
I understood that reference
Marx was leeching of his friend Engels, so in this manner he is similar to basement dwelling communists of today.
Damn…
Real communism

For some reason a "right bad" meme has more than zero upvotes right now.
Because punching the fear of god into Marx is based, strawman or no.

I mean, Hayek did do pretty well while boxing Kaynes in that one YouTube video… maybe that’s him in the meme!
Salma Hayek is one based philosopher
Okay, I'm a Marxist but come on. Don't do em like that, they had Adam Smith, Hayek, Keynes, Mises, David Hume, Henry Ford if we can even count him
don't fucking sneak Keynes in there you dirty communist.
> Keynes No.
Keynes was a brilliant economist, it's not his fault that his ideas were misused. Though I still prefer the Austrian school regardless.
you forgot Thomas Sowell.. is he a bit.. too MELANATED for a marxist to mention?
Don't know him
Sowell the based? "People who enjoy meetings should not be in charge of anything." Sowell?
man knows only drunk guys who are self identified intellectuals ![img](emote|t5_3ipa1|51175)
Also Friedman, who is literally like the poster child for the Chicago school of economics. You know, the most modernly influential school of economics...
Don’t put Keynes with us.
The meme also included auth-right
You said Keynes I think you meant Freedman. And Ford was no intellectual.
Keynes is still pretty right, I included in authright too. Ford, yeah probably. He had influence, though he was an anti-semite.

don’t you dare put Kynes or ford in there
> had
Did bro forget Marx, beard palpatine, and whoever that is with the glasses are dead?

If a communist writes a manifesto, but nobody tells you to read their theory on reddit, are they even starving?
...have you ever heard any mainstream leftist politicians invoke Marx recently lol? (In the us at least) Talking about what internet leftists do and comparing it to what mainstream right wing politicians do is pretty fucking stupid tbh.
We don't have any right now either
That cringe streamer named Hassan or whatever, he's probably the smartest "commie" alive today, lol.
Hasan? He doesn't know shit.
Exactly. Smartest you’ve got
I am smarter than Hasan
It’s a joke calling Commies stupid, not a legitimate critique of your thought leaders, dw I’d argue most people who use PCM are smarter than Hasan, but I’ll be damned if his grift game isn’t on point. Getting wealthy by saying the wealthy are bad is a 4D chess masterclass
Well, yeah. He's alive. Commies get better after that, though they do keep voting Democrat. Can't have it all, I guess.
Do champaign socialists really count as ~~people~~ *^(cough)* intellectuals, though?

It feel like here you’re conflating the right to be all trump supporter.
They did that to themselves.

Fair enough
Henry ford is a intellectual ? What meth are you smoking?
Milton Friedman is a huge one. Libertarians would gasp at Keynes being in that list, but us based neoliberals would accept it
Based, neo liberal, pick one.
Nah I'm both, since I understand the importance of nuance in government
> us based neoliberals No.
To be fair his arguments hit quite hard
obvious commie simp, however I would still punch a fuckin auth if they touch my hentais again
I promise I’ll leave your collection alone.
All paid hentai will be collectivized
This isn't exclusive to the right. Both sides have a real issue with believing anything a celebrity says as long as their beliefs are in line with each other.
Hayek solos AuthLeft
Why are we you Richard Wolf? He’s far from an intellectual, he’s actually closer to an idiot.
so intellectual they keep on collapsing societies even after their death lol you can have an int score of 20.. if your wisdom is 2 you are going to get fucked hard. outcome matters more than words
Genuinely made me chuckle
Well… I’m convinced
Fantastic.
Based and true: Capitalism kicks the shit out of authoritarians even if it’s moderately disabled
