Plot summary
This documentary is the condensed package of why the state is inherently antithetical to human flourishing. I grew up conservative from the South with all the neo-con trappings that with with my decision to join the military as an Air Force Officer to “fight for freedom” and to “serve my country”. Many voices in this documentary are the voices that have shattered my world view and have helped me build a more coherent understanding of human behavior, human interaction, and human flourishing.No doubt this documentary will come under attack from the “establishments” of the “left” and “right”, if it’s truly allowed the see the light of day on mainstream outlets where the “3×5 card of allowable opinion” (credit: Tom Woods for this phrase) often doesn’t make room for anything but solidarity with state action and state power.The more I catch up with libertarian and anarcho-capitalist thought and bodies of work, the more I am continually humbled by the breadth and depth of knowledge and understanding I still need to pursue. This was a phenomenal documentary and will be a crowing achievement for a technological era that is still forming.
