The Illiberal Progressive Mind | James Ostrowski




 Our guest this week is uniquely qualified to discuss modern progressives from a libertarian perspective. Jim Ostrowski, whom Murray Rothbard called "one of the finest people in the libertarian movement," is a lawyer, writer, activist, and chronicler of progressive dysfunction in his native New York. He's the author of 'Progressivism: A Primer on the Idea Destroying America', which explains progressivism more as personal psychology than a coherent view of the world. If you're interested in how progressives managed to capture the 20th century, stay tuned.

Modern progressives believe the state should control, or at least involve itself, in nearly every aspect of human activity. They believe countless things about government and human nature that are manifestly not true. Deeply hostile to liberty, they never accept responsibility for the disasters caused by the political, economic, legal, cultural, and social policies they advocate.

But should libertarians engage with progressives? Should we attempt to match their long march through the West's great institutions? Or should we write them off as hopelessly statist products of the dominant culture?

  1. ALL THESE DESCRIPTIVE TERMS FOR MOVEMENTS, PHILOSOPHIES, AGENCIES, EDUCATIONAL SYSTEMS, POLITICAL PROGRAMS, ARE EUPHISIMS FOR CONFUSION AND INTELLECTUAL PSEUDO WISDOM.
    IT IS DESIGNED TO OBSUCATE AND CAMAFLOUGE NEFARIOUS AGENDAS AND MANIPULATIVE AND CORRUPT SYSTEMS, LIKE BANKING WHICH HAS A MILLION TERMS FOR FINANAICL ROBBERY.
    WHAT´S A NICE ACADEMIC TERM FOR ZIONIST RADICAL MOTHER FUCKER.? START FROM THERE AND WRITE A NEW LEXICON OF DEFINITIONS WHICH ARE MORE REALISTIC. WORDS HAVE MEANINGS, AND LAWYERS AND POLITICIANS HAVE DISCOVERED A SYSTEM OF CORRUPTING THE ESSENCE OF HONEST COMMUNICATION. THE BIBLE CALLED IT "FREE WILL" NOW WE CALL IT POLITICAL IMMUNITY. THE WHOLE WORLD, MOSTLY DUE TO THE MIS USE OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, HAS BECOME A FILTY POT OF DECEPTION AND LIES. EXAMPLE- LIES= PERJURY. WHAT´S WRONG WITH THE WORLD LIES?
    LOBYING IS A NICE WORD FOR EXTORTION AND MANIPULATION, AND SO ON.
