RE: Persuading People to Adopt Voluntaryism is Mostly Futile

in #anarchy7 years ago

As I've said often lately, we are surrounded by well programmed robots. They are dangerous too. For those of us seeking the truth and to further individual liberty, we have a duty to stay on that path. We do not have a duty to convince others of the same truth. They have to find it themselves.

Sort:  

That is very well said, and something I think many of us tend to forget. When these robots are trying to convince us why we're wrong, it's easy to fall into the trap of trying to explain to them why THEY need to change, as opposed to simply saying that this is the path we're on and it's right for us, without pushing further, allowing it to sink into them and then perhaps ignite enough curiosity for them to do their own research.
