Hypocritical libertarian?
Nozick's 'Anarchy, State, Utopia' is 50 years old this year. Let us start the celebration of the 'libertarian bible' with a fun (?) anecdote about Nozick and his rent controlled apartment. More on ASU to come!

    Doesn't sound really sound hypocritical. The counterargument, is that Segal gave up his right to charge whatever rent he wanted. And likewise, the management company was also quite aware that they were charging rent in violation of the Cambridge ordinance. This is a situation where the parties agreed to circumvent the ordinance, because they both knew of its requirements and conditions. The controlled rent was $1,300/mo. But, Nozick agreed to pay $1,800. But Segal rented the condo for less than his actual costs. So, kept trying to ignore the original contract, and raise the rent to $2,300. But, that wasn't what they agreed to. And when Nozick complained to Segal, Segal's reponse was that Nozick's book meant Nozick waived any right to complain. Nozick said he didn't. Segal said, "So sue me." So, Nozick's lawyer did. And he won. The curious thing in here is Segal thinking, "I can renege on the contract, and demand more, because my tenant wouldn't dare complain because of his own philosophy." Arguably, if that unique factor were not present, the case never would've happened. And Segal would not have tried to "take advantage" of Nozick's unique position.

    To be a libertarian you need to have a deep misunderstanding of how economies, governments and societies work. It's a contradictory, unworkable worldview suited for teenagers that want to feel special and above the "petty constraints of society." Thats why most people just grow out of it as they get older.

    I don't know the specifics, but if a contract was signed such that price would have to follow government regulations, and both parties agreed to it, and then the landlord in this case broke it, then it wouldn't be against the libertarian ideal to fight for a fair compensation for breaking such contract. Again, I don't know about this case so maybe what Im saying doesn't apply, let me know if I'm wrong.

It's like if I was to call a communist a hypocrite if they opposed a UBI. There may be a multitude of reasons they would oppose such a thing in a capitalist economy, maybe they think that it would just result in rent hikes and more wealth for landlords, or maybe they see it as a tool to slow down the rate at which the workers are alienated from the capitalist system.

    While not necessarily a demonstration that he didn't believe what he wrote, it sure seems like he could have benefited from society in which his well-being was valued more than the freedom of a landlord to harm his well-being. It's the fundamental question: why is it that we should care about the freedom to be detrimental to others more than the right to not be harmed? And why draw the line at physical force when there are many other forms of harm? Don't give me the "total free market anarchic capitalism is the best for people so it's a moot point" argument. For one, it's obviously wrong, but also, it's not the question.

    • @christofthedead
      @christofthedead 10 дней назад

      Using personal resources in exchange for what an individual deems to be a desirable outcome is compatible with libertarianism. The use of the word "freedom" in this context is borderline incoherent, from the perspective of making a clear & coherent argument. I get it's a buzz word in America as a social signifier, but making an emotional appeal for the "freedom to freely negate others freedom without risking losing any freedom", or limiting the concept of state or non-state violence to only physical harm makes what should be a very outdated & basic discussion into a word salad free for all.

    • @IshmaelPrice
      @IshmaelPrice 10 дней назад

      It is often used that way. And people fall for it. They think that letting people damage their health or otherwise endanger them is some rugged act of defiance out of the movie Braveheart. Of course you could have a version of libertarianism that uses a more expansive concept of force or violence, but the fact that it even has to make a random exception like that suggests that freedom isn't a be-all-end-all value. It's good to have some freedoms but it's not good to have freedoms that, when exercised by others, do harm to oneself.

    Psychology is new-age mysticism stemming from eastern mysticism. It is also deeply infused into literally everything we entertain ourselves with--politics, movies, music, art in general. This is actually an irrefutable fact. Do some research with the keywords carl jung and the new age. Then look up Freud's warning to Jung regarding the depths of studying psychology. He said it was occult. People should not trust it. They pretend it helps people, and it might in tiny rooms between "doctor" and "patient", but it is a weapon to the masses.

    The anecdote about Hegel and Schopenhauer is a little unfactual. Schopenhauer of course knew that more people would go to Hegel's lectures, he was very aware of his immense fame, and it was never his attention to try to detract attendees. Schopenhauer merely did it out of principle, which is very Schopenhauerian. Also, I imagine he liked the thought of teaching to so few people.
