Against copyright, for age of consent.

In general libertarianism is voluntarism taken to the extreme, with no "general good" and emotion allowed to interfere. So common arguments for all variants are such:

Libertarian arguments for copyright are based on you accepting the agreement while buying or receiving something. If you don't, then somebody has done that before you and violated it. Fruits of a poisoned tree.

Libertarian arguments against copyright are based on you and the authors having no other option but to use what's given with such an agreement, and with you being deceived while told you are buying it (which would mean you can copy all you want), and in case of any technology patents with laying claim on a resource which isn't depleted by sharing.

Libertarian arguments for age of consent are that children are not conscious enough to consent. That part is common, then variations follow. For some it makes them property of their parents, who can decide anything for them, but if after becoming adults they consider it a violation, they will be in their right to treat it as such. For some - without that "but". For others it means that some axioms need to be chosen so that parents could, well, feed and teach and discipline their children, but couldn't abuse them. For others it's going to be managed by a community which will ostracize parents mistreating their children.

Libertarian arguments against age of consent are obvious - they are alive so they can consent.

Holy shit, you tried to play it off as a joke earlier and now you're just saying that there's an actual argument against the age of consent. pit

It was a joke to equate this to copyright.

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I have to say it was well done of @Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net to give you the rope to hang yourself with by asking that question. Previously, you tried to say the question was a joke to begin with, but now, instead of saying something like "It wasn't a serious question, of course I don't think there are two positions to take regarding the age of consent", you post a diatribe where you do say there are two equally valid positions regarding the age of consent. libertarian-alert

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.zip 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You continue to treat these two as mutually exclusive. Ask me how I can say you've never designed a working thing in your life.

jesse-wtf Seriously what are you even talking about now?

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.zip 0 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Your comment about me somehow contradicting myself doesn't make sense, because those statements do not contradict each other. Is that clearer?

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

They do contradict each other if your initial argument was "My statement was a joke" and you answered that question with a serious reply.

Unless...did you mean that the only thing that was a joke in your statement was equating copyright with the age of consent, and you're in fact totally fine with libertarians being "split on the issue of the age of consent"? Because holy shit.

Of course they are, they're an earnest fuckin lolbertarian

Probably also believe in the 'complex nature of the debate' around driver's licenses and libraries

Honestly, they come off as a naive clown trying to hold it together, they're far too eager and in depth on some of their replies, and they believe in the 'virtuosity of the conversation' around those items, ignoring that the frothing fash parts of their little ingroup which just hate minorities, poor people, and want to fuck kids

ed: nevermind, saw their comments on taxation and benefits, they need to be ran thru a woodchipper feet first

i just thought of something, whenever someone says something is complicated or, shudders nuanced, i think they are sorta thinking about the concept of infinite regress.

like you can go to an arbitrary depth on maybe anything, whether it is productive or not does not i think really change whether a person can state their opinion or not.

it's almost like the folks who do not answer and speak the discussion indirectly are metagaming, they wanna have their cake and eat it too
