That's precisely why there needs to be a stronger federal government with much better funding and strict protocols in place as soon as a new virus hits. This virus is directly the result of libertarian-like approach to government: let's just do nothing and the free market will fix itself. It sounds nice in theory, but in practice leads to mass death and economic horror. This virus is a failure of effective, competent, proactive government. -

According to most of the world's scientists, academics, leaders, experts, and even serious business leaders. There cannot be an economy when every hospital is overflowing with dying people. -

The best way to survive is to stop whining, stop spreading conspiracy theories, wear a mask, and limit your socializing until really smart hard-working people (unlike you) invent a vaccine/treatment. -

What lock down? There is no lock down! You're whining about a thing that isn't even happening. The libertarian position is what America is doing! All you're being told to is do is not be an inconsiderate asshole and not infect others by minimizing your reckless social behavior. But as usual, libertarians will always whine no matter how little government does. Because to a libertarian anything that personally inconveniences his freedom is an act of violence. - - - - - - - - Wife: "Hey baby, I'm gonna make you your favorite pancakes, but we're out of milk. Could you pick some up from the grocery store?" Libertarian: "WHAT????!!!! How dare you!!! I did not consent to this, woman! Stop using aggression and oppression against me. LIBERTY!!! FREEEEEEDOMMMMMM!!!! ****MYYYYYYYYYY**** RIGHTTTTTTSSSSSSSS!!!! Personal responsibility!!!! Morality!!!! Non-Aggression Principle!!! Property Rights!!!!" Wife: -

I don't see the point. If you want to understand it, go read about its history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feminism

Very nice. But.... You've only seen the tip of the iceberg of what Awakening/Love is. -

@annonnimm32 Please stop listening to whatever horseshit conspiratorial news sources you listen to. It's rotting your mind. -
An enlightened being is free to do whatever they want.

Society has NEVER EVER been consensual. That's what you misunderstand. You are whining about the inconvenience of isolation when your ancestors had to die in war to defend your ability to exist. You seem to not understand how community works. Your community will force you to do WHATEVER IS NECESSARY for the community's survival. Welcome to Earth, human. -
Wrong is invented by your mind. But do keep in mind how you'd feel if someone murdered your mom.

The problem is you guys don't even know what feminism is. Yet you feel confident attacking it.

A powerful technique they teach life coaches is called Validation. It works like this: Whenever a client introduces some new problem or challenge he's facing, you as the coach hear it out and say: Coach: "How does that make you feel?" Client: Explains feelings Coach: "How do you REALLY feel about?" Client: Explains even deeper feelings Coach: "I hear you say you really feel X because of Y. It's valid to feel that way because..."

Before anyone criticizes feminism here, please tell us how many books on feminism you've read.

@louhad When it comes to dealing with upset females, always just ask... HOW DO YOU FEEL? HOW DO YOU FEEL? HOW DO YOU FEEL? HOW DO YOU FEEL? HOW DO YOU FEEL? HOW DO YOU FEEL? HOW DO YOU FEEL? And don't try to fix it or change it.

Vaush is definitely over-blowing the whole Nazi/white supremacist/fascist angle. These people are right-wing. But right-wing has plenty of degrees and they should not all be equated with Nazis just because they have nationalist and ethnocentric predilections. Most people in the world are simply not evolved enough yet to be cosmopolitan. That doesn't make them Nazis. Calling such people Nazis makes the situation worse as they don't think of themselves as Nazis and they start to feel righteous in resisting progressives. "How can progressives be right when they keep calling me and my friends Nazis when we clearly aren't? Therefore progressives must be wrong." In his desire to be edgy Vaush is weakening his otherwise solid position.

Conservative logic: One side has neo-nazis, fascists, white nationalists, racists, FoxNews, Brietbart, Trump, etc. but the other side has Chris Cuomo. So can you blame us for choosing the side without Chris Cuomo? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ LOL

Libertarianism is good against a severe authoritarian state, perhaps like that in China. But libertarians always act as though the government is oppressing them -- no matter what size government is -- so they cry wolf even about sensible regulations which are not really oppressive. Stuff like Medicare For All and Green New Deal and Civil Rights is not oppressive or authoritarian. It benefits the vast majority of people. Yet libertarians will oppose it. So they become useful idiots for corporations and plutocrats who want as little regulation and public services as possible.
