I got one friend who will not shut up about the MIC (military industrial complex). He'll go on and on about how much it ruins shit and how much is influenced by it. But concepts like Imperialism and its relationship to capitalism is some how beyond him. Instead its just "humans who are the problem"
The thing that I'm reminded of constantly is that there is a language we all use but all the words mean different things.
- Capitalism
- Imperialism
- Fascism
- Authoritarianism
- Totalitarianism
I couldn't begin to tell you what I used to think these meant and what the people around me think they mean still. No one (save for one person in our group) would be bothered to read a book on the subject.
Like, the MIC comes from somewhere, if it pisses you off so much, wouldn't you want to understand it, so you can combat it?

Does he think that if someone made better than boeing airplane (in small government world) boeing wouldn't drone strike their factory?
But libertarians are brain broken, as they don't perceive the sizes of corporations.
No idea. Our points of views align all the time but when it comes down to the "why" question he's always in some other reality. He thinks big corporations are bad but also big government is bad yet can't see the relationship between the two.
So libertarian
Its fundamentally petit bougie ideology of small garage shed producers competing in the marketplace of products, they are all like that.
Government should protect private property and fuck off otherwise. If they think for two seconds, they also agree to anti-trust law. When government doesn't do it they go fash upon material conditions.
