For fuck's sake! When are the BANDits going to quit it? And of course all the "science" reporting outlets are gobbling this shit up without mentioning that the authors are part of a fringe group notorious for doing bad research.

Even if this were completely on the up-and-up, it would take a LOT more than this to refute the dino-bird link.

And here's my deviation debunking it:

Normally, I think we should stay away from the "no true libertarian" fallacy, but there clearly comes a time when someone clearly is not a libertarian and has no right calling themselves one. Case in point, Vox Day:

All of my supposedly anti-libertarian positions are based on the idea of maximizing liberty in a society based on Western civilization. So, far from being anti-libertarian, I would argue that my National Libertarianism is more in keeping with the true concept of libertarianism than all the various dogmas that are libertarian in theory, but in practice have material consequences that are observably anti-human liberty.

The end may not justify the means, but the end is the only correct means of judging any social policy. Intentions and hypotheses and flights of fancy are all equally irrelevant. In the end, one can only look at the policy and decide: does this advance or detract from human liberty in this particular polity.

For the record, his anti-libertarian positions include opposing gay marriage, desegregation, female suffrage, and female education. In other words, he's all for liberty, but only for white heterosexual men.

Any self-respecting libertarian should support equality under the law. Every citizen should have the same legal rights as every one else. Any government that does not recognize equal rights for all is by its very nature tyrannical and totalitarian.

Also, "national libertarian"? Seriously? That's an oxymoron. Libertarianism is, by its nature, an individualist philosophy; nationalism, on the other hand, is collectivist. If you beleive in placing the interests of the nation before the interests of the individual, you are not a libertarian. You are an authoritarian and a collectivist.

The only thing worse are the comments to this blog post:

"I believe the openly homosexual should be executed and I still consider myself more libertarian than anything else. The toleration of proud queers is extremely destructive to liberty, culture, and nation, but the connection is not obvious to anchorless minds bathed in anti-God, anti-western propaganda."

Sweet Celestia. Anyone who advocates that the state have the power to end an individual human life has no right to call himself a libertarian.

I think Libertarianism may be the only political philosophy where you can do that without it being a fallacy. Just as someone who wasn't born and doesn't live in Scotland isn't actually a Scotsman, anyone who advocates the initiation of force in ANY way is not a Libertarian, by definition.

And yes, Vox Day is not and never has been a Libertarian.

Read only one comment where he says we're for force, just for the things we like/want our way otherwise we wouldn't be complaining about the system.  Good lord, projection, much?

And his argument of "well no one would pay for the stuff without a state" was just painful levels of stupid.  No, Kadrol, think about this.  If that is true, that, in the abscence of the state, no one would pay for healthcare, roads, education, etc.  Why is it done in a democracy?  Either: democracy is an illusion and doesn't represent the will of the people, or people *would* really pay for them.  And think about it.  He doesn't believe that either.  If it was, why are him and other statists twats using that as an argument in a weak attempt to moral shame/tar&feather us? Either they know their argument doesn't apply and are just trying to poison the well, *or* they don't know it and are in no position of knowledge to be arguing this stuff in the first place.

Saw this shared from Being Classically Liberal on Facebook:

Republicans want you to think that liberals are hypocrites. They want to incite anger and discord, and cause people to think poorly of liberals. But liberals are the driving force behind national progress - that is why we are called PROGRESSIVES. That is why the world looks to American Liberalism as a bright and shining beacon of hope for humanity; that corporate America will someday be overthrown by the people, and all people will be made equal by the government. All people. Not just rich, white CEOs and their Republican lackeys in congress.

The conservatards over at Being Banned from "Being Liberal" claim that the Being Liberal Facebook page unfairly bans people for no reason, but ignore the fact that their obvious troll page Being Classically Liberal ban people for no reason as well. We are not excusing Being Liberal's somewhat overreaching banhammering, but we cannot excuse Being Classically Liberal's hypocrisy, and the hypocrisy of all those who blindly let Being Classically Liberal tell them what to think while pretending that Being Classically Liberal is not administrated by hypocrites.

The truth is coming alive. Let it start here. Liberalism cannot be slandered!

The projection is stong with these people. "Obvious troll"? LOL!

I skipped right to the end and knew OP was full of shit.  Liberalism cannot be slandered? Good lord, God complex much, OP?

Am I the only one bothered by the obvious race-purity behind this? That mutations are bad and we need to keep our genetics pure?

Our ancestors did LOTS of mutating: lactose tolerance, CCR5-Δ32, extended color vision, HbC...and it's all while they were doing this little thing called "evolving!"

With just a little prodding, these guys could become racial cleansers if they're not already!

Fail is obviously from the SJWs, not BTF or InternetAristocrat.  Needless to say, within a few minutes of seeing the super fails on the cultural appropriation bit from Tumblr SJWs, I was thinking, "yup, these douchenuzzles are getting what's coming to them, courtesy of \b\.  Serves them right for using speech codes, harrasment, lawsuits, nanny state bullshit and duress on college kids because they're doing something you don't like.  Fuck you."

Um... "Do you like Beethoven? Mozart? Bach? Misogynist! Don't you know they were all old white men?" Mozart died at 35.

True, but I think you still get the point.
