Hello, my name is Ashton. I live in Houston Texas. I am 29. I have been listening to Stefan for maybe 2 years now. I grew up very conservative and even considered myself a neocon... I also grew up in church as was pretty involved with the church. My political beliefs began to change about 4 to 5 years ago thanks to Ron Paul and my brother. I became more and more libertarian and eventually took the plunge into anarchy. I am an anarcho capitalist. I was for open borders until i started listening to Stefan and now consider myself an anarcho-capitalist nationalist, a term i coined as far as i can tell; Basically common sense anarchy.
I am single, going to school for drafting and making it pay check to pay check. I have started a side "business" pressure washing to help save money and pay off my truck.
Anyways, just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully network with people online and perhaps locally.
I was raised Catholic but only started to get serious about it in my twenties. I attend Mass at Christmas and Easter, typically. I lost interest in weekly Mass after I realised they were reading the same 156 Bible passages year in, year out. As Terence McKenna put it, "When you get the message, hang up the phone".
My family and other personalia are off limits.
@ErwinIf you aren't an anarchist then what are you?
The self defense argument, huh? You do understand that the left viewed voting for Hillary as self defense, right? How do you keep out foreigners forever if you can't even defeat the left? They'll be back next election. What's her face losing France is a sign that the globalists are pushing back hard.
I said you aren't talking about anarchy, you replied that 'we aren't all anarchists" and then when I asked for clarification you said you are an anarchist and your"we" comment was about everyone else. So then why say "we" in that sentence if you are? Did you not understand what I was asking you?
So then the answer is yes, you were confused by what I was asking you. If you understood it you would have just answered with a "Yes, I am an anarchist" There is no need to say "we" and then later qualify that statement as "variability". It's frustrating to me to ask you why you weren't clear and then you answer my question in this non-direct way. Are you trying to save face? Is this a chess game now?
The answer is no, I mis-worded my answer, and it quickly became to complicated of a dialogue for you.
Let me dumb it down for you, sweetheart. You asked for clarification. I clarified. Simple enough?
Or perhaps, you're frustrated because you're tired of men explaining things you don't understand. Looks like you're still having a hard time... Sad!
Typical projection. Look in the mirror, woman.
I asked you a very simple question and now here we are. I have to wonder what your motivation is. If you didn't want to answer it why did you even respond in the first place?
