Libertarians Should Never Advocate for State Power: A Message to Dave Smith and Bordertarians

Brandon Aragon — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 07:43:48 +0000

Libertarianism and Dave Smith My personal definition of libertarianism for over a decade has been that liberty is the core principle, and on every issue, you put liberty first, grounded in individualism, private property rights, and the NAP. Though I probably need to update my definition slightly. Dave Smith’s definition of libertarianism, put roughly, is self-ownership…

Dave Smith vs. Liquid Zulu: The Shadow of the Burning Principle

Brandon Aragon — Fri, 12 Dec 2025 21:24:36 +0000

Since libertarians don’t often discuss the non-aggression principle (NAP), I figured I’d contribute to the conversation. The NAP purity argument holds real importance because, as an Agorist, consistency forms the core of what sets us apart from other ideologies. In 50 years, Agorism will likely remain much the same, while a JFK Democrat from back then would seem unrecognizable today.

The Veil of Chains: Awakening Liberty Through the Greater Shadow

Brandon Aragon — Thu, 04 Dec 2025 17:28:54 +0000

What Is the Veil of Chains? Agorists do not vote. We do not beg the slavers, negotiate with terrorists, or legitimize the system. Every election the “pragmatists” scream the same thing: “If you don’t vote for the lesser evil you’ll get the greater evil and lose everything overnight!” That is the lie that keeps the chains polished and comfortable. That single mindset is why…

The Glitch: Unveiling systematic control and the Agorist Cipher

Brandon Aragon — Sun, 20 Apr 2025 08:05:06 +0000

Introduction, the glitch: If you’re reading this, a glitch has occurred; some algorithmic error has allowed you to see this. This glitch might be the first crack in the facade of control, a whisper from the digital realm that not all is as it seems, and that change is not only possible but imminent. You can easily skip over this because there is much to see and attention spans are short…

Agora and the Art of War: Synergizing Ancient Wisdom With New libertarian Philosophy

Brandon Aragon — Sun, 26 May 2024 10:00:12 +0000

History is full of timeless texts, and wisdom that make us think about the world around us differently. Two of these, “The Art of War” by Sun Tzu and, the modern-day philosophy of agorism by Samuel Edward Konkin the third, may seem like they have nothing in common. But if you delve deeper, you’ll find that they’re more similar than one might think and that by combining the two we can not only…

Counter-Economic Attrition: Agorist Strategy During Wartime

Brandon Aragon — Sun, 21 Apr 2024 13:25:05 +0000

Introduction Agorism advocates for peaceful voluntary interactions via counter-economics to starve the beast of any third-party theft taken by the state. Counter-economics is the study and practice of evading and circumventing government systems, regulations, and controls, often through black market activities. Attrition is broadly defined as gradually reducing the strength and effectiveness and making something

Black Market Jury Nullification

I hope that this article may save someone in at least some small way one day. Although it may be ambitious, we must all try to help each other in any way possible…

Government: A System of Slavery

Brandon Aragon — Sat, 04 Dec 2021 02:56:03 +0000

Introduction This is a prequel and a sequel to Legitimizing A System of Slavery. Unfortunately, due to some misreading and misconceptions, some responded with personal attacks and misguided criticisms. I hope to clarify those misconceptions respectfully. Some of those misconceptions are that the article only made “what if” claims and was inconsistent. The other was that government is not a…

Legitimizing A System of Slavery

Brandon Aragon — Sun, 14 Nov 2021 15:14:08 +0000

There have been many discussions about a particular topic on social media. Whenever I refer to this topic, the responses I receive lack imagination; what about the roads, type of replies. The case I’m mentioning is politics and getting involved therein. I want to lay this out, so I’m addressing most of the arguments for and against being political and some moral issues I see with getting involved…

A Silver Lining to a Very Dark Cloud

Brandon Aragon — Wed, 17 Mar 2021 16:05:53 +0000

Government is a cancer that grows but never shrinks. So, the ones who prefer freedom, I and most likely you who are reading this, have little to look forward to as time goes on: more government emerges and this equates to less freedom. I would never want more government in any case, and I want everyone to live free, but I am realistic towards an ever growing government.

Get crypto for everyday practices

I’ve been asked how to get started with cryptocurrency many times. The easiest ways to start are by doing what you already do on a daily basis. Using your web browser, watching videos, and even just searching the Internet are all easy ways to not only earn cryptocurrency, but to learn how to use and transfer it as well. Let’s get started with a crypto search engine. Firstly…

The Navajo And The Contaminated Water Problem

Introduction A friend came to me and presented the problems the Navajo face and are going through. Much of the water they have is contaminated by uranium from abandoned uranium mines and the Church rock spill. Details on this later. This article is an attempt to bring awareness to as many people as possible and to show people the great Navajo, and the many solutions that agorism has to offer…

The Properties Of Money And Cryptocurrency

Brandon Aragon — Tue, 02 Jun 2020 04:11:16 +0000

Money in general is an important part of agorism. We use it to trade with one another voluntarily in a free market. It can also be a great tool to evade extortion and save some of our precious wealth while rewarding other agorists who provide value in the marketplace. It is a great way to choose the change you want to see in the world. Money is essentially just a way to store economic energy.

Agorism And Breaking The Chains Of The State

Brandon Aragon — Tue, 21 Apr 2020 19:32:20 +0000

What is Agorism? Agorism is a libertarian social philosophy that advocates creating a society in which all relations between people are voluntary exchanges by means of counter-economics, thus engaging with aspects of peaceful revolution. Avoiding State Extortion Everything the government has is stolen, and therefore government is not legitimate. It would be the same as your friend opening a…
