how can we even be anarchocapitalists under any sort of government. how is it possible to even try when it’s impossible in the state. why does anyone have hope for this ideology. i really thought i got it when i was like 15 but there’s no point, even libertarians are getting fucked. there’s not enough of us to fuck up the govenment so why try

Today, Murray Newton Rothbard would have turned 100.
Rothbard was one of the most prolific intellectuals of the 20th century and paramount not solely to libertarianism but political thought in general.
Rothbard founded anarcho-capitalism and formulated libertarianism proper. He wrote extensively on Austrian economics, being a sharp critic of the central banking system. He mentored several students, some of whom have shaped libertarianism to this day.
Rothbard was not limited to theory, he was also an activist. He campaigned against the Vietnam War, worked with leftists, allied with rightists, and was not afraid to throw his weight behind controversial individuals, like David Duke and Pat Buchanan. He joined several organizations, worked actively inside the Libertarian Party, co-founded the Cato Institute, and supported the Mises Institute in its infancy. Whatever mistakes he may have made, he made them because he was doing a lot.
Rothbard was not afraid to destroy idols. He relentlessly attacked the Cato Institute, the Libertarian Party, Ayn Rand's cult, and even the libertarian movement itself, letting go of sentimental attachments to the circles he once belonged. He was one of the biggest enemies of the warmongering neoconservatives as William F. Buckley Jr.'s National Review.
Rothbard's presence in the Old Right and later the paleo alliance ensured he was not only an influence on libertarians but also rightists. Many non-libertarian right-wingers still pay respects to Rothbard.
And these are mere fragments of the life of The Irrepressible Rothbard, who sadly left us so early and we didn't have the privilege to meet, but whose work in his 68 years is abounding and truly historical.
Happy birthday, Mr. Libertarian!
Hoppe and Kinsella have also assembled a collection of tributes to Rothbard, which can be found here: https://propertyandfreedom.org/books/rothbard-100/

Happy belated birthday Rothbard!
Rand and her followers were crazy but they were not extremists. I respect Rothbard for being a real ancap. Even he could respect when Rand was right and knew how to get out when she and her band were going off with philosophy.
I do not think right-leaning libertarianism or Rothbardian ancap is the ultimate ideology however. im no bleeding heart but conservative culture is not the way to go. I think ancap works best when everyone can do what they want without the social consequences too, the whole idea of dropping commies out of helecopters or even the more realistic social shaming of their communities is harmful. If they want to form a community around that idc. fly whatever flag you want, if you can afford the airspace.
