Attribute to L. Neil Smith’s The Libertarian Enterprise

A   late newspaper columnist named Sam Francis (ultimately denounced by the left as a racist, of course) once said that America is ruled by an Evil party (the Democrats) and a Stupid party (the Republicans). To “stupid”, I would rush to add “cowardly”: when the GOP finally got a leader with a spine and testicles and guts (extremely rare qualities among Republicans), they were so terrified of of the man that they betrayed and abandoned him. A third political party, the Libertarians, seems determined to be even more spineless, balless, and gutless; they have specialized for years in nominating con-men and crooks for President.

They also don’t seem to know who their friends are, or how to treat them when they’ve found them. A case in point is one Norma Jean Almadovar, a former police officer and professional sex-worker who wanted to advance the Libertarian Party’s cause and recognition. The party that had always claimed it wanted to legalize prostitution was embarrassed to be confronted by the beliefs they claimed to advocate, and froze her out.

Now the once-admirable conservative youth organization Turning Point USA has faced an almost identical “crisis” and has failed almost identically. The Internet pornography-star Brandi Love (look her up), was originally scheduled to speak at their recent convention—against sex-work—but she was suddenly disinvited and chucked out into the cold, just like Norma Jean. Words like “graceless”, “churlish”, petty, “mean”,and “pusillaimous” come immediately to mind. It appears that competition has worked just as Adam Smith predicted. TPUSA is just as cowardlly and stupid as the LP.

Years ago, I took it on myself to write to Norma Jean to tell her how deeply ashamed I was of the Libertarian Party; it was just one of many reasons that I eventually left the party. Now I’m writing this little ditty in the faint hope that Brandi (whose real name is Tracey Lynn Livermore) will see it. I mean to tell her the same thing about Republicans that’s true of the Libertarians. Sorry sweetie, put not thy trust in would-be princes.

There was a movie, some years ago (it was about police corruption; I don’t remember anything else about it), where the phrase “you’ve lost the meaning” recurred several times. The Libertaran Party and the GOP lost whatever meaning they had long, long ago. Unfortunately, the Marxists, Stalinists, and Maoists we’re up against never lose their meaning. To quote another movie (Die Hard) they want to kill you and cook you and eat you. Not necessarily in that order.

The order of the day, then, is not simply “walk away”, it’s run away at your best possible speed. These creatures on the left are exactly the same entities as our fathers and grandfathers fought and killed and died to protect us from in two World Wars, Vietnam, and Korea.They are the enemies of everything decent and noble. The Nazis made Jews wear yellow, six pointed stars in 1941. Eighty years later, mask-fascists will beat you up and kill you if you refuse to wear a face-diaper. If you should complain, the smelly, lurking basement-dweebs of Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube will ostracize you and shut you off. Resistance to tyranny, which Thomas Jefferson defined as obedience to God, fails to meet “our community standards.”

Sanity begins with an agreement among civilized people to govern themselves strictly in accordance with the Non-Aggression Principle: nobody, especially government, has a right to initiate force against another human being for any reason whatever. Sanity continues with punishment: these civilized people owe trillions to China. That debt must be repudiated to pay for what the communists did to us with Covid.

Tell that silly little woman of the Sisterhood of the Wandering Uterus to curb her hysteria. She’s perfectly free to defect to Communist China if she wishes. No-one will stop her. I’ll even chip in for her one-way fare and I can think of a couple dozen more just like her who should join her.

If that’s too rough for the LP and TPUSA, then I know I’m setting the right tone.
