Sometimes I forget that people haven't figured this stuff out yet.

• Conservatives: America is the best and most free country. Except I need a permit to take a dump, or I'll get beat by the police.


• Liberals: Socialism is what America needs. Just kindly step over the two hundred million corpses please.


• Libertarians: Central bank trillions straight to the regulatory capture and Israeli-run war department.

"Good models can explain past events, and predict future outcomes."

I discovered Libertarianism in my twenties after Neoconservatism got everything wrong, and it was the first time that the entire world made sense. It was like Copernicus: "Maybe the Earth revolves around the sun?"

And that's not even getting to Marxism, or "Social Democrats" as they call themselves these days. How those people can even get through an entire day without getting crushed by cognitive dissonance is beyond me.
