The Free Thought Project Podcast

Guest: Jeremiah Harding - The Libertarian Dilemma & The Paradox of State Solutions


Listen Later

In this engaging episode of the Free Thought Project Podcast, hosts Jason Bassler and Don Via Jr. embark on a thought-provoking discussion centered around the evolving dynamics within the Libertarian movement. As they navigate through the complexities of libertarian principles, they engage with Jeremiah Harding to explore the contentious issue of aligning with right-wing figures like Donald Trump.

The conversation delves into the pragmatic versus principled approach within libertarian circles, examining the potential compromises involved in seeking political influence through support of mainstream figures, the role of the Mises Caucus, Trump's MAGA 2.0 cabinet selections, and discuss why agorism might be a more consistent philosophy. Additionally, we delve into the implications of vague promises like "freeing Ross," drawing parallels to Julian Assange's release conditions.


We also touch on the concerns about Elon Musk and technocrats acting as a Trojan horse that could subvert liberty, and how these dynamics are affecting the libertarian and freedom movements. We examine the risk of gaining a superficial sense of relevance while neglecting solutions that don't depend on the state. We also discuss the savior complex surrounding Trump that many are falling for and how libertarians have gained more traction by echoing Republican mantras.

Listeners are invited to explore the implications of prioritizing political strategy over foundational libertarian ideals, and the potential consequences of such a shift for the future of liberty. Join us for this thought-provoking discussion as we navigate the intersections of politics, philosophy, and the quest for true liberty. (Length: 1:17:06)
