That's why conservatism isn't enough, we need reactionism. We got to go back.

Nazis and communists actually walked the walk. But Nazis lost the war and communism collapsed. Still, better track record than libertarians and conservatives.
Bocian
Nazism (national socialism) and communism have nothing to do with reactionism. Both of the former are strictly far-left and genocidal ideologies.
Wyrmlord
lmao, people still do the Nazisand commies are both lefties rhetoric.

keynesians live in a fantasy world and libertarians just propose common sense.

National SOCIALISM is leftist. I can't think of single right wing characteristic about it.

We need muscular right-wing reactionaries. We like tech, but the modern world really sucks and needs to change to something more like the morals of our ancestors.

The problem of libertarianism IMHO, and I quite respect libertarians, is that it lacks moral/religious arguments capable of stopping degeneracy. Too much homo economicus. There's no non-religious argument against degeneracy. You can't fight degeneracy with economic liberalism, sorry.
Bocian
Some libertarians seriously believe that a world without religion and morality will ascend, and people will be happier. Both laughable and concerning.
Lurker King
You are making a confusion. First, libertarianism is a political doctrine about how institutions should be run, not a universal moral doctrine. This distinction is important and should be maintained, otherwise is just attempts to impose pet-ideology and there is no meaningful discussion. Secondly, it’s much more harsh and demanding than it seems, since it’s in open opposition to socialism and free-riders.
Lurker King
You should ask yourself what kind of man would flourish in a world where you need to fend for yourself. Certainly, not some retarded socialist or SJW, that’s for sure. You just need to glance on the cultural and scientific accomplishments of the founding fathers of the US.
Lurker King
Culture is not something that we should take for granted. Delusional fools spoiled by the accomplishments of the past generations will be always eager to put everything at risk.

Harsh times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men create harsh times.
How does Libertarianism handle that?

Look, we wanna know how political institutions should be run. The answer to this problem will be determined by considerations about human nature and fundamental moral grounds, e.g., property rights, freedom of speech, etc. So that is one thing. .
Lurker King
Good. Now, there is also a question about what is morally appropriate in every aspects of life. That’s a different issue, and here you can insert all sorts of things Catholicism, Buddhism, whatever.
Lurker King
But not everything that is politically allowed or forbidden, it is morally right or wrong, e.g., you can assume that laziness or some types of insults are imoral, but you won’t propose laws to punish people from being lazy or making certain types of insults for a myriad of reasons, both political and practical.
