Comments by "bakters" (@bakters) on "Hitler's Socialism: The Evidence is Overwhelming" video.
@TheImperatorKnight " Democracy? Here's your democracy " You pretty much said in this video, that collectivism is "fundamentally flawed" and it can't never work. Please, do continue your journey into the "is it really the case" land. It is not that simple. It's complicated. And it's neither my nor your fault. (BTW - I lean toward laissez-faire liberalism, and I was never any sort of extremist, so I can't be a neophyte.)

@TheImperatorKnight Dear TIK. Please, do read on Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. It was a Libertarian utopia which very demonstrably went south. No roads, no bridges, no taxes, very weak standing army, extremely rich citizens. Just for a quick example - The whole of Prussia was poorer than Poznan region alone. Yet they went under. I admire your journey. It's just that ignoring PLC when discussing libertarian ideals is like ignoring Soviet Union when discussing communism, so I want you to have a bite of this piece of history too.

TIK: " Red, brown and black are all collars " Me: That one time when your accent spoke the deeper shade of truth.

@jamzbraz " libertarianism had never been implemented " It pretty much was. Imagine having an actual right to an armed rebellion. Imagine having a right to execute the sentence of the court. Like in, call a few friends and just take what you were due, by force, no joke. Imagine having to plough through mud to arrive at a mansion. Imagine totally ignoring court sentences and being so bold about it, that you lined your cloak with all those judgments of the court. An extremely well attested historical figure of Samuel Łaszcz did just that. He was an outlaw with 236 court sentences convicting him to that and 47 sentences for infamy (which was worse). One of our greatest memoir writers was also sentenced to be an outlaw, so it wasn't an unheard of thing. That's what you get when you strip the state from all the power. No taxes, no power, nobody to execute the law.
