As someone who just graduated college, this is very well said and timed. :)

Nice!
Two things:
1) The graphic regarding private charity Steve displayed.  Well, gee, you don't think that might have a little something to do with govco taxing over half our income crowding out private donations?  What an ass!

2) At its core, libertarianism *is* anarchism and vise versa with anarcho communism being an oxymoron for the same reason 'libertarianism socialism' is.  Kinda odd for you to post fav quotes of how the minarchism/anarchism debate is semantics while saying stuff like that which you did near the end...Besides, like you even said in the video, yes, we don't know if those ideas of ours will work.  But we DO know that the police/courts/military we have now don't and that the burden of proof isn't on us anyways.  And that's all we need.  We don't oppose those things, much less their alleged functions, anymore than you oppose the idea of feeding the poor and caring for the sick.  We only oppose a violent monopoly on those things.  Hell, one of the questions that make me go from minarchism to anarchism was when Ladyattis on YouTube asked: "If you don't like a police force for, say, racial profiling or enforcing victimless crime laws, why should you be *forced* to fund them? IT'S YOUR MONEY!"

Also, it's hilarious Steve calls us "greedy, selfish 5 year olds" when demanding crap from government is exactly that! I mean, come on! I'm selfish for not wanting to have my shit stolen, but you're moral and giving for wanting to have it stolen for yourself? Fuck off, Steve!


A fav quote in the comments by Shane in the video:  "Read what Murray Rothbard had to say about Rand and her cult sometime."
And a fail quote from Guncriminal related to say when he said that, "There isn't much evidence any of Rothbard's experiences with the objectivists really happened." with him primarily referring to Rothbard's play: "Mozart was a Red"

All of the above are win articles on the subjects of health and the human body.
The only exception that really sticks out for me is #4 in the first/top article I linked.  I don't buy that about fish.  Especially in light of the meta study www.YouTube/user/ThatGuyFromAustria linked to in one of his anti-vegan videos which showed that in terms of lifespan from longest to shortest:

1) People who eat fish, but not meat
2) Vegetarians
3) people who eat fish and meat
4) Vegans

Then you have the Japanese who tend to eat lots of fish yet last I checked aren't in the midst of a population wide metallic poisoning crisis, are generally healthy, and live long too.  So it's more of a matter of "unhealthy compared to what?"

Quote from: yamatoiouko
The Furry Fandom

You know, it feels a lot like I hear about how BAD people are in the fandom. People always go on about how selfish it is, on the whole. Or how so-and-so did this, and how dare they, and just some terrible shit. It's been enough that it can make you dwell and wonder if there's anything good about this fandom or the people in it.

...but that's a load. Sure, there's crappy furries, and there's mean furries, and there's jackass furries...but have you people met the NON-furries out there? Seriously, they are NOT any better. You go to an anime con, or a sci-fi con, and it's not like these people have any more respect for each other, or any more maturity. Furries are human, just like anyone else participating in society, as much as many of us would wish to deny or ignore it.

But still. Our fandom has a kind of cohesiveness that others don't. We actually give a shit about each other; hell, the number of times I've seen people worry about friends on FA, then have support from people they don't even know makes me think that most of us give more of a shit than your average everyday jagoff. I think the problem is, the furry fandom is kind of like a family, in all the good and bad ways. We care about people we don't even know, but when something bad happens, when we have interpersonal problems, they're even bigger than if we were just strangers. When someone fucks up, we make it a public affair because, well, it's like we have a black sheep in the family.

In the end, is being part of this fandom worth it? Is it worth dealing with all this pariah-shaming and drama we can have? That's up to the reader, honestly. But I've been a part of it for eleven years, now. And I really don't want to go anywhere else. We really are like an extended family, in a lot of regards, and I like that part of being a furry far too much to let the bad parts pull me down. If you can't see it like that...well, that sucks, but best of luck to you if you decide to leave. For everyone else that decides that being a furry is worth it, I'm happy to know you're staying. :)
*Standing ovation!*
