State of Nature

"'If he gets up we'll all get up. It'll be anarchy!' -Bender, Breakfast Club"The State of Nature is an argument made by indoctrinated statists and empty headed intellectuals. This line of argument comes from noted statist shill Thomas Hobbes. It is otherwise known as "the Hobbesian Fanfiction."

State of Nature has to deal with society before the state and society without a state. Hobbes argues that in nature men are at constant war between one another. He calls life in this condition, "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." People in this life fulfill their needs by taking them through force, don't plan long term, and use force to preserve their own livelihoods.

Basic Fucking Logic
Unfortunately for the bootlickers this is not how the world operates. Lets use basic reason to counter this.

Planning for Early Man
"'We discovered the future. It was like a place, a place you could bargain with'- Jordan Peterson"Primitive man plans long term. In the stage of hunting and gathering man must plan his weapons, track and hunt his pray, subdue and kill the prey, haul it back to their residence, cut up the meat, cook it, and then serve it. Man must also note the patterns of where the animals graze and gather to maximize his efficiency. Often men functioned in tribal settings on the basis of familial connections and outside alliance. Familial bonds and outside connections take time to socially develop. Hobbes must have been some idiotic fucking recluse who never touched a weapon in his life. He is also likely the first fat Reddit neckbeard before Reddit and the internet was a thing.

Man in the extreme scarcity was required to plan and developed long term planning with things such as agriculture. If man can figure this out in this form of poverty than why would he suddenly cease? Why would man throw down his means of acquiring riches, this being peaceful interactions in an economy, just because the government disappeared.

Retarted Violence
The two main types of attacks argued are aggressive and preemptive. Aggressive in this sense is attacking others on the basis of grudges, desire to steal, etc. People have a certain equality that libertarians can acknowledge. The equal ability to be killed. Launching an attack can result in death, injury, capture, or failure. Thomas Hobbe's idea that people won't plan has already been proven false by basic reasoning. A criminal can then acknowledge that their crime may fail. They will especially acknowledge this in a society that is in a "state of nature."

Preemptive violence is the idea that men will attack out of fear of being attacked. If a man is to attack others then his status as a potential attacker increases and they will become a pariah who is more likely to be killed. Aggressive violence therefore makes less sense than in our current society.

In our modern age the desire to feel safe is much easier to obtain. In previous eras men would need to train in martial skills with swords and bows to fight. Today instructors would be willing to train people in the use of firearms. Firearms manage to bring down much more physically imposing opponents with ease. Other options exist such as tasers and pepper spray. The possibility for security is only restricted by the government's prohibitions and restrictions on weapons.

Fixing a Non Problem
Hobbes claims that the state of nature issue is solved by giving one organization the means to commit violence against every other man. We call this organization the state. The problem is man becomes a slave to the state. The state gains the tyrannical power to inflict violence as it pleases and it seems to exercise this in modern times more than ever.

Try this at Home!
If you ever go onto a cruise ship in international waters you will notice that people wont start killing each other. If you ever go to Disney world you will not see a police officer in sight, but you will not see the Magic Kingdom turn into a warzone. If you stand on a public street you are more likely to get mugged than in a private place. The state creates chaos, liberty makes order.

Conclusion
Hobbes is a babbling retard who uses a scare story that he made up to justify why it's okay to enslave the population.
