> there's too much risk involved in investing in black market production that is under constant risk of shutting down.
True. But if an individual believes (subjectively assesses) that the return on investment is higher than the risk, they will invest.
> As Rothbard said, "Who will produce the steel"
Yes, that is correct; it is difficult for the black market because the state exists, which will do everything in its power to prevent you from opening such a plant, and it would be practically impossible to hide it from the state.
But this does not mean that you should support the largest steel plants with your money, which directly feed the parasites in the state by paying them bribes and receiving non-market advantages from that same state.
It all comes down to the individual's choice and their willingness to establish what I like to call a "p2p connection" with smaller plants. Let me explain.
Suppose you are a manufacturer of something and you need to buy n tons of steel for your production. You could go to the largest plant on the market, and it will likely offer you a better price for its steel because it feeds state parasites with bribes so that they grant it additional preferences (for example, on taxes), which is why it can offer you a better price. [ please note that this is not the only argument for why the largest steel producer might offer you a better price; it is simply one of the examples I used to develop my thought ]
Your steel purchase from the largest producer will be completely "legal" as far as the state is concerned; the contract will be registered and all taxes will be paid (the state will rob you of taxes).
And there is at least one other option for purchasing steel: from smaller plants with which you need to establish a "p2p connection" at a level such that, on paper, they sell to you at a lower price (so as to pay fewer taxes), or a smaller quantity of steel (officially, but in reality, they sold you more steel), etc.
That is, first you need to establish trust with a smaller steel producer in order to move the steel purchase transaction into the "shadows" (away from state control) to get:
1) a better price (even a better price than from the largest producer that pays bribes to the state);
2) the state will get less money from such a deal = good for all parties to the deal and even for all the other people who were not involved in the deal, because the state received less money, which means it will have fewer resources to persecute ordinary people.
Furthermore, you might tell me that "not everyone wants to do this," and that there is risk, and many risks, and yes, you would be right. But if you establish such a "p2p connection," such a level of trust, then this cooperation only becomes stronger and stronger, and you, as a manufacturer of something from steel, will bring even more value to the market, and the state and its parasites will receive less money each time.

>>> His critique of wage labor wasn’t really necessary — it can be perfectly acceptable. It’s a legitimate and often beneficial arrangement, especially when it’s voluntary.
Employment work can be of several types:
1. Completely legal (from the state's perspective);
This is when there is a contract drawn up according to the state’s rules, registered in the state system, and the employer pays an official salary according to the "laws" of the state where they are located, and thereby both the employer and the employee pay taxes = support the state = make it stronger.
Yes, this form of paid labor is undesirable because both people who are providing value to the free market are both paying taxes to the state.
2. Completely illegal;
It's time to fix the roof of your house. I know how to fix roofs. According to the "laws" of the state, we must officially formalize our contract so that the state can "protect" us (rob us of taxes).
If we don't do this = the state cannot rob us = the price of the deal will be more pleasant for both of us = everything is voluntary = everyone is happy.
This type of employment is completely ethical and politically/agoristically consistent.
And yes, every time I have to close any deal, I always, always, always suggest to the other party to do it p2p via Monero, Bitcoin, or cash, without a receipt, without registering the deal, because I don't need "protection" from the state.
And you know what? The market has never let me down yet. :)
>>> His criticism of capitalists who collaborate with the state is also too harsh and somewhat overgeneralized.
And I think he was right about this. Because all large businesses are one way or another:
1) sponsors of the state
2) have privileges from the state over small business (because they pay the state under the table)
Like any other day, you can be more or less consistent in your beliefs. For example, I buy 90%+ of my vegetables, fruits, meat, milk, honey, bread, and some other products only from small/micro-businesses.
I don't care about big business that receives subsidies from taxes that were previously stolen from people.
>>> Many people are just responding to the incentives of the system they operate in
Okay, then these people deserve exactly 100% of what the government does to them every day. It's that simple. :)
>>> we can’t expect everyone to be highly politicized or ideologically consistent in their actions.
I don't expect anything from anyone at all. I live as I live and I practice what I preach - agorism.
>>> Finally, his framework also lacks a clear strategy
If you didn't understand the clear strategy, read the manifesto again. I'm saying this without sarcasm.
>>> both in terms of communication and in terms of effective self-defense or protection.

I highly recommend you to read "Praxeology of Privacy" by Max Hillebrand.

Murray Rothbard was a great philosopher, and I value his contributions to political philosophy.
But, just like him, some of his supporters today fail to acknowledge the fact that Samuel Edward Konkin III (a.k.a. SEK III) turned out to be a more visionary philosopher.
As for Rothbard himself, he later turned into an ordinary right-wing conservative who used some sophisticated methods to mix "libertarianism" into right-wing conservatism.
While "legal libertarians / ancaps" debated (and continue to debate) about political activity within the current system, Konkin predicted that liberation would come not through ballots and elections, but through the creation of parallel markets beyond state control.
With the advent of cryptography, Bitcoin, Tor, Monero, P2P networks, and DeFi, this theory has become practice.
Technology has provided real financial privacy and freedom without the need to ask for permission from the state or from conservative libertarians who defend large businesses (which operate in tandem with the state).
Political struggle has proven to be ineffective. And it is striking that, at the time, only Konkin predicted this.
Practical freedom here and now.
While Rothbardians argue about the theory of courts and law enforcement in a hypothetical of an AnCap state in vacuum, agorists and crypto-anarchists are using encryption and DeFi to bypass taxes, sanctions, and regulations in real time.

This doesn't depend on the GrapheneOS community, but on the hardware manufacturers.
Motorola approached GrapheneOS with a proposal for collaboration, not the other way around. I hope Motorola realizes that it can start selling its devices very well if it takes the right approach.
And I really, really hope the devices will be high-quality.
About Fairphone/Nothing phone - If they're willing to make devices that meet GrapheneOS standards - then yes. But I don't think that's going to happen.
On the other hand, though, I hope that Motorola devices will sell well with the right marketing highlighting the benefits of using GrapheneOS - I think more hardware manufacturers will emerge who want to meet the GrapheneOS standards.

Bitcoin marketing campaigns (propaganda) from 2016–2017 through to the present day have made BTC unsuitable for use as a currency, because most of those same "normies" buy BTC with the intention of selling it later at a higher price.
Add to that the lack of privacy by default. In other words, a merchant might not like your UTXO history and refuse to sell you goods or services.

It is _not_ the lack of technology but the mindset/mentality/lack of political backbone that makes people normies.

[ stream of thoughts]
There are quite a few people like this in wealthy, developed countries.
And none of them understand one simple thing: either you __actively resist the state__ - mentally through agorism and practically through the practice of counter-economics, or the state will keep robbing you until you die.
Even when you die, the state will still rob your loved ones, because they'll have to pay for your funeral, and taxes will be levied on that as well.
People in poorer countries understand this better, and they resist more actively and hide their money from the state.
People in richer countries are mentally complacent and wait for a "benevolent state" to come and wipe their asses.
Those who say "Fix the money = fix the world" are as detached from reality as it is possible to be.
They think that by moving to some backwater and living in the jungle to "legally" off-ramp to fiat at 0%, that this is the pinnacle of human freedom.
First and foremost, there must be a strong political backbone, a will to resist by any means necessary.
Second are the tools with which an individual will resist.
Most likely, the person in this video will never read this post, but he can move his small business into the "parallel world" and start to use {today}:
1) Nostr - instead of Facebook / X / Instagram;
2) SimpleX chat - to talk to his clients (instead of WhatsApp / Telegram);
3) Monero, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Liquity (LUSD) - instead of fiat currency;
4) Linux - instead of Windows / MacOS;
5) GrapheneOS - instead of iOS / bloated Android
6) to practice digital hygiene, self-hosting and other digital sovereignty stuff;
And not show the government a single penny of what you earn.
In fact, you could even turn the tables and go collect "benefits from the government" (money that the government has already stolen from other people).
And you don't have to move to a poor tropical country to "live free". You can live wherever you like.
Right now, there are dozens of FOSS tools in the world to circumvent government control, but due to a lack of political backbone and the will to resist, good people continue to be helpless and give their life energy to the government.

FrameWork can do it. Companies that are far smaller than they are have already done it.
But they prefer to play at green-eco-communism with their expansion cards and talk about how the goyim own their devices and how wonderful freedom is.

2026-05-04 16:14:09 UTC

I see a lot of excitement about the "Framework 13 Pro".
Don't forget that Framework are hypocrites who:
1) pretend to be all about "freedom" and playing in green eco-communism, yet after all these years still haven’t started supporting Coreboot for their main model;
2) censored discussions about Coreboot;
They simply closed the Coreboot discussion thread for many months, but because concerned people noticed their behavior, they eventually reopened the thread and allowed the goyim to discuss Coreboot for the main model.
A pretty picture to grab your goy attention.

Turkish economy is just a mess, so they've decided to bring in foreign goyim to save Erdogan's regime.
Some remote workers might flee to Turkey from Latam.
I doubt people will return right after Turkey froze the bank accounts of Russians at Putin’s request.
And also after Turkey scammed those same Russians with the "buy property = get residency" program.

Monero is a unique project.
Privacy by default = digital money/cash holds value in the eyes of people, without the need to pump its price on centralized exchanges.

It seems to me that few people talk about Valve's impressive behavior.
When people say that "Gabe Newell does nothing and still wins", that’s not true.
Valve is a unique company that isn't made up of psychopathic, greedy bastards eager to squeeze every last 0.01 USD out of you.
I've never been a fanboy of any brand, because blind fanaticism has a negative impact on the market.
But what Valve does for free and open-source software + the fact that they make money ethically from hardware = respect.
Just one example — the Steam Deck. A fantastic device. Not locked down. You can do whatever you want with it, customize it, connect any controllers, and so on. And people have appreciated that.
Same goes for the Steam Controller.
Valve could have done what Apple or any other greedy company does to the point of psychopathy: glue the joystick shut, use the most inconvenient screws possible, solder the battery in place, and do 100500 other things to prevent you from maintaining your joystick, forcing you to always buy a new one and have it serviced only by the manufacturer, who would sell you a proprietary screwdriver for $199.90.
But they didn't do that.

> Still, how do one earn your first Monero?
By selling good/services.
> At your work one earns fiat.
Good. Now, open XMRbazaar and sell you fiat as a proxy-buyer. Now you have XMR and there is no way in this world that your bank/state will catch you that you bought Monero in that way.
> If he has nothing to sell in a bazaar, one can't get Monero to buy the things he needs.
He sells fiat as a proxy-buyer, which is one of the most stealth way of OTC/p2p trading.

>Hard to onboard and offboard.
Onboard: Sell goods/services for XMR; be a proxy-buyer on XMRbazaar;
Offboard: And here’s the best part... The big part Monero community always tries to buy goods/services with XMR. Check out how many merchants there are on Monerica.com and XMRbazaar.
While Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other communities try to conform to the rules of the current financial/political system, the Monero community is building a parallel system. Quietly.
When I onboard a new merchant to Monero, I always tell them they don’t need to sell Monero for fiat to buy goods/services; I give them Monerica.com and XMRbazaar.com, explain how they work, and so on.
Even if they do need to buy something with fiat, they can always buy a gift card or find a proxy-buyer on XMRbazaar to whom they’ll give XMR and receive payment for the goods they need.
Yes, it’s a more complicated process. But it’s free from government control.
>You need to build trust with each new seller. Much harder than trusting a single entity.
You can use an escrow service that has a good reputation.
>I’m not trying to bash Monero. I’m trying to point out its weakest point so it can be fixed.
I get it. It’s all good.
It’s just that the problem doesn’t really exist. You just need to have the will to resist government control.
Some people prefer to beg the government on their knees for a 0% tax on their crypto and report it to the government, only to have it stolen by criminals. Others report their crypto to the government because they are mentally and politically weak.
And some people buy goods or services with Monero, even if Monero isn't listed among the supported currencies on the merchant's website. :)

1) Monero is really easy to use. You just send a transaction and you're done. The UX/UI of Cake Wallet, Unstoppable, or Stack Wallet is very straightforward.
2) You don't have to trust XMRBazaar at all, because they don’t hold your XMR. Trading happens directly between the buyer and the seller.
3) "So little demand" - that was funny to read, considering that no other cryptocurrency has a marketplace like this.

Part of this problem is mental helplessness, especially among crypto people from developed/wealthy countries.
People are so brainwashed by the state that they will happily live in a shithole where they are offered "0% tax", but on the condition that they disclose their crypto to the state.
And they do it.
And then they manage to be surprised why their data is sold by tax mafia employees, and why they are subsequently kidnapped.

Once again, you have a choice: don’t publish your code or book if you don’t want them to be copied.
And if someone does copy them and you don’t like it, you should better protect your code or book.
If you think there’s more value in not publishing your code or book than in publishing it and risking "piracy" then don’t publish it.
