Can you also post the show to the podcast section like you usually do?

Dangit, that one got lost in the rush today. Sorry.

Every single comment on the above video left by MSFHMysticJoJo (Lord T Hawkeye's friend Wraith).

A sample:  "Who the hell here is advocating pre-state society? We sure as hell wouldn't want to forget the lessons society has learned from being oppressed by "leader" after "leader". Removing the state means removing tools for one person to oppress hundreds and returns personal accountability to every single individual, while keeping technological and cultural advances. We are clearly talking about "post-state", and you need to acknowledge that."
Very well put.

"In my experience, socialists and communists are indistinguishable from libertarians when they're talking about why an oppressive government should be taken down. It's only when you ask what should come after the government is topped that they somehow think that they can do it right next time, even though that's what everyone said every other time it happened.

They just don't learn."--Shane, in response to being told many book authors, like Orwell, are socialists/communists in the comments of this video:

Epic win.

The perfect comeback to all the establishment types bawwing over Ken Cucinelli's loss and blaming it on Sarvis:

stupid communist #2 (the woman): "I've never met anyone who went into med school for money"

yeah, I'm torn between this:

or this:

sorry couldn't resist: I mean imagine the implications of that line. Has she been living under a rock?! I don't know a single family member of mine, or friend, or neighbor, who went to med school who didn't do it for the money--if in part at least. I went to a geology school precisely because it has a fall-back plan that can net me lots of money: I can work for an oil or mining company, if I can't be a professor, and I will be damn well paid for it too! my dad went to a business school so he could make lots of money running grandad's business!

Some good news ab out police behavior for a change.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/police-worry-about-being-caught-on-video-researcher-says-1.2417618

About 74 per cent of the officers who participated in the study reported having modified different aspects of their behaviour while on duty.

More than half of them said it's reduced the number of times they use force on the job or that they have reduced the strength of the force they use.

Isn't correct behaviour only because you fear consequences generally considered a bad thing? Isn't that one of the main points held against theists?

There are people for whom the fear of consequences is the required measure to prevent undesirable behavior.  Unfortunately, there seem to be rather a lot of those employed as police.  This may be because, traditionally, police have been able to act with impunity to a great degree in many, if not most, countries.

I think a lot of it also comes with the authoritarian mindset: whatever the police do is automatically right. So they've lost that moral compass, and they need the threat of repercussions to behave.
