I would love to speak with Dr. Ruwart on this, the author of "The
Compassion of Libertarianism" about how we need less empathy and
ya
know, if a 14 year old gets pregnant, might as well be a pervert
with a
job rather than a broke kid. Because welfare.
This is called using people.

“If such motions had circulated in the LNC in the early days

on
Drugs,
claimed that gays had rights, or pointed out that taxation
was
theft.
All of these positions were considered inflammatory and
offensive
to
the majority of people outside the LP for most of the 1980s,
regardless
of how carefully these positions were presented. Now, they
are
seriously embraced or considered across the political
spectrum
precisely because we spoke out. It’s impossible to affect
serious
change without offending some listeners. How can anyone
believe
that
the LP supports free speech when its own members are
punished for
engaging in it?” ----Mary J. Ruwart

Arvin has audaciously and courageously challenged us to stop
speaking in tongues about our Libertarian principles. He has
correctly identified the fact that the opposition does a better
job
of describing our policy and positions than we do. We need to
step
up to the plate with equal courage and get us back on track
toward
our shared goal of freedom.
It is time to end this game of Russian roulette that Ms.
Mattson
has
aptly described as a circular firing squad, this
political-correctness nightmare of timidity before voters and
pandemic get-elected-itis at the expense of not only our
principles
but any semblance of rationality. We have done enough damage to
the
Libertarian cause. Let us cease this endless cycle of
self-destruction before we plunge ourselves into a death-spiral
of
reworded censure motions.
Good grief - enough already!

What we heard from Arvin is a defense of Trump tactics.
That

not
