A couple weeks ago, @kennyskitchen let me know he’d contact @adamkokesh about setting up a debate with me, to be hosted by Kenny.
These guys are both very busy, but I sure would like to know whether the response was a yay or nay.
Here are three potential debate resolutions. I would be arguing the negative position in all three cases:
RESOLUTION: Becoming President via the American Electoral Process is a legitimate means by which to assume control and authority over lands and resources.
RESOLUTION: Centralized, redistribution of unowned property and resources by political mandate is compatible with the philosophy of Voluntaryism.
RESOLUTION: Running for and becoming POTUS is a legitimate means by which to acquire authority over other individuals.
If this debate is something you’d like to see on Dtube/Steemit, please upvote and resteem!
I’m itching to prove that the Kokesh 2020 presidential campaign platform is by definition, not a Voluntaryist platform, once and for all. Since it is by defintion not one my job would be easy, which may be why @adamkokesh won’t debate/hasn’t responded.
The run for president is fine. The fraudulent peddling of the plan as a Voluntaryist one is not. Get your own label! This one is already well-defined and well taken! It’s embarrassing to those of us who get it to have the Voluntaryist label plastered on authoritarian political initiatives.
