Greetings!

Greetings!
I am thirty years of age & I reside in southwestern, Ohio. Before I was an anarcho-capitalist, I was quite conservative. About two years ago, I met a gentleman, who is now my best friend & he opened my eyes to a lot that I was not privy to. I had equated anarchism for quite some time to chaos & aligned myself with the right-wing (for the longest time, as long as I can remember, I'd always been anti-liberal) point of view. I am a militant anti-theist, so you can imagine how most discussions with the vast majority of conservatives went. The philosophies of Ayn Rand, Friedrich Nietzsche, Anton Szandor LaVey & Aleister Crowley were philosophies I had been on board with for quite some time. It wasn't until my friend introduced me to a brand of anarchy that seemed logical, rational & fair that my ears became more perked & a thirst for knowledge followed suit.

Shortly after my discovery of true anarchism & anarcho-capitalism, I was in. This made more sense to me than any other standpoint before it & since then I have fell under much criticism from folks when defending my stance. Thus, leaving me with a confirmation, I was on the right track, because their arguments seemed negated by the lack of reason they used to defend their side(s). As I look around, my misanthropy grows every day, but the herd-mentality, which has a repugnant stench, helps fuel my fire & gives me more ammunition for the next battle of verbal fisticuffs.

With that being said, allow me to give you an insight as to what else I'm about. I am an active skydiver, avid lover/reader of occultism, practitioner of magick & ritual, debunker, skeptic & lover of black & death metal. I hope to learn a lot while here & bring something positive to the table, too.

I thank you for your time!

Hey! I'm very familiar with anarcho-capitalism (read Rothbard and other Mises institute writers as well Stefan Molyneux) and am sympathetic to it though not yet fully behind it. I think it's interesting. Right now I'd say I'm a minarchist libertarian.

True anarchism? So, you would have absolutely no problem with me shooting your dog for taking a shit in my yard?

Welcome! I look forward to hearing your views. I'm not familiar with anarcho-capitalism. Perhaps a thread on the merits of anarchy is warranted... Welcome, again!

Hello Jeffery, welcome, when you say you love the occult, does that mean you believe in supernatural things, and if so, what?

Hello and welcome to AF! ^_^
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
