Kokesh continues his raging implosion:



Liberty movement at a crossroads





There's so much wrong with just the first 3 minutes alone.. He has little understanding of how social behavior functions and evolves in society, and instead turns complex things into false dichotomies. He fails to understand why some other people didn't mention what happened in his most recent arrest, without even considering that those people think Kokesh' strategy is unproductive or worse, and have no interest in associating with him.



I'm pretty sure in his latest 'innocent protest' they were telling people to do illegal drugs right in front of the police, and I heard him say "move closer so the cops can't reach in". And then he pretends he is just like any other libertarian speaker who can just as well be swept up.



Clearly he doesn't understand how agorism works, and what the vital role of education is.



His 'arrested for dancing' spectacle was just as sad. Most people believe that the government owns the places where public statues are. Hence, they will support the government who built those places and keeps them clean to conduct certain rules about behavior. Similar to how most people support a supermarket setting rules about behavior in the supermarket. And he thinks publicly and pre-announced going against those rules is going to affect anything positive? The whole action is totally besides the point of the actual problem. If instead he made some educational documentaries about public ownership of roads and the possible alternatives, that could help skew some minds who could then support other ownership models of things in society. But he didn't do that. Instead, he went dancing, got arrested and choked, and went to jail. That is simply a pointless self-sacrificing action that doesn't cause positive change. Why is he risking his own freedom all the time? Does he understand the idea of egoism at all? Maybe he could learn some things from Stirner or Rand or other 'keyboard warriors'.



His ego is getting to him. Every new video he is getting angrier and angrier about why others aren't acting more like him. Has he ever really considered the monumentous mistake of signing up for the military and going to war? Is he simply looking for some other way to self-sacrifice and be a 'hero'?



He takes his philosophy from Molyneux, who's also big into ego. That philosophy, in particular regarding morality (including 'free will'), the idea of 'natural rights that are part of reality', are totally removed from reality. Has he ever considered criticism of that philosophy from other libertarians, such as Ludwig von Mises? Is he even aware of that? Or did he hear enough and it was time to 'do something'.



It's easy to 'do something', but when you don't understand what it is you're dealing with, that 'something' is often in vain.
