  1. To the OP: I think it's crucial that you explain how aggression could be defined outside of property, sense all aggression refers to the concept of property.

    Philosophy Books

    No Treason, the Constitution of No Authority by Lysander Spooner Philosophy: Who Needs It by Ayn Rand The Art of Reasoning by David Kelley Human Action: A Treatise on Economics by Ludwig Von Mises Metaphysics by Aristotle The Nicomachean Ethics by Aristotle The Private Production of Defense by Hans-Hermann Hoppe Democracy: The God That Failed by Hans-Hermann Hoppe The Libertarian Manifesto by Murray Rothbard Modern Epistemology: A New Introduction by Nicholas Everitt These are a few good books, mostly Libertarian. I recommend studying Epistemology thoroughly, if you haven't, in order to know how to decipher what's true as you move forward through the other branches of philosophical teachings. A Logic textbook is helpful too.Have fun! ^__^
  3. There are many myths about humans living in hunter-gatherer societies that were "utopic." I'm reading Steven Pinker's "The Blank Slate" currently and he informs that 90 percent of hunter-gatherer societies are known to engage in warfare, and 64 percent wage war atleast once every two years. (The 90% could even be an underestimate because anthropologists often cannot study a tribe long enough to measure outbreaks that occur every decade or so).[1] It *is* true that Paleolithic humans were physically healthier than Neolithic humans, based on their larger pelvic inlet and taller stature.[2] But, I've never read evidence that Paleolithic humans lived in "orgiastic utopias" so that premise would have to be verified before Joe Rogan could move forward in his position. Personally, I'm convinced that children thrive most when raised by non-violent, reasonable, logical parents and not a commune of several intersecting ideologies confusing their vulnerable developing brains.
