    “Whenever anarchocapitalism is mentioned to me in conversation, it’s usually followed by repealing the age of consent.”

      The core base of right wing libertarians and ancap are pedophiles and racists after all. Sure there are also a few guys who stopped maturing in their teens that think Ayn Rand and Milton Friedman are deep as well. They’re just there is a smoke screen and Patsy’s.

        Hey that’s unfair, their base isn’t all just either pedophiles or racists; some of them are also psychopaths and/or sadists.

        In the present research (N = 675), we focus on the relationship between the dark side of human personality and political orientation and extremism, respectively, in the course of a presidential election where the two candidates represent either left-wing or right-wing political policies. Narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and everyday sadism were associated with right-wing political orientation, whereas narcissism and psychopathy were associated with political extremism. Moreover, the relationships between personality and right-wing political orientation and extremism, respectively, were relatively independent from each other.

        We found eleven significant correlations between conservative [Moral Intuition Survey] judgments and the Dark Triad – [narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy,] all at significance level of p<.00001 – and no significant correlations between liberal [Moral Intuition Survey] judgments and the Dark Triad. We believe that these results raise provocative moral questions about the personality bases of moral judgments. In particular, we propose that because the Short-D3 measures three “dark and antisocial” personality traits, our results raise some prima facie worries about the moral justification of some conservative moral judgments
