The next time you hear a conservative blaming the government for something, tell them, “oh, so you’re part of the ‘blame America first’ crowd?”
"Austro" as in Rothbard and Wittgenstein, "Athenian" as in Aristotle and smashing-the-plutocracy.
About Roderick T. Long
The Empirical Me
I’m Roderick T. Long, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University. I’m an Aristotelean/Wittgensteinian in philosophy and a left-libertarian market anarchist in social theory. (More about me here.) This blog, Austro-Athenian Empire, is a continuation of my earlier blog, archived here.

Thanks for this obvious suggestion, Roderick ( :
I don’t know. Makes it kind of sound like you’re in support of the government.
[...] Roderick Long explains how. [...]
To a conservative, the police and military don’t count as part of “the government.”
Indeed, they are “us,” in the sense that “we” invaded Iraq.
I thought liberals were the ones identifying the government with “us”?
All statists do.
True that.
