Porc Fest: It’s on Like Donkey Kong

Shameless Self-Promotion 18 Comments

OK I just bought my plane tickets so it’s official: I’ll be at “Porc Fest” from Wednesday the 22nd through Sunday. Details of the event are here. I am doing (I think) at least one event per day, and I believe karaoke night is Wednesday. I hear Dan D’Amico, Roderick Long, and Stefan Molyneux will also be there. (I’m going to try to interest them in a Bible study.)

So come on up before we all go to jail. It will be a story for your grandkids.

    Bob, did you read Molyneux’s “Universally Preferable Behaviour: – A Rational Proof of Secular Ethics”?

    It doesn’t bother you even a wee bit to be appearing on the same stage as Stefan Molyneux, a radically anti-Christian cult leader? Is reducing tax rates really that much more important to you than Christ’s message?

      Hmm? Did you ever consider that Bob may actually be a libertarian and all that that entails? Maybe that never crossed your mind, Gene.

      That’s the price you pay for Liberty, you have to live with people who have different views than you.

        Even with MMTers! Bloody liberty…

      ….anti-Christian cult…

      Gene, you should be aware that Bob is actually also associated with the Mises Institute, along with Molyneux.

      Are you that intolerant, Gene? If Molyneux is a cult leader, what are you doing to save his sheep?

      These personal attacks on people associated with LvMI is one of the reasons why I think you are bitter. Why would you personally attack most people at LvMI, if you weren’t bitter? I have seen you do this against Woods, Tucker, etc. I don’t know the politics, and I don’t know who is right or who is wrong, but this animosity doesn’t reflect well on you!

      You’re incorrectly using the word radically.

      Molyneux is a cult leader?!? Please do explain.

      Apparently the Christian cultists don’t like any competition.

      I apologize for my remark. I should not have said this. My only excuse is that I had been out celebrating the Mavericks win… but that’s not a very good excuse!

        I forgive you, but Stefan is under no such imperative.

        I did not know Gene was such a big Mavericks fan. Or, is he really just fan of beer?

    “The best speakers in the liberty movement will be lending their ideas to PorcFest attendees all day. Ever wanted to see superstars like…Robert Murphy?”

    Sometimes, when I get nervous, I stick my hands under my armpits and than I smell them like this

      For all I know that might be a smear attack, but that article sure did want to make me throw something at Molyneux.

    I don’t think Free Domain Radio is a cult and Stefan is a nice and thoughtful fellow, but it is funny that he thinks one should renounce all people that do not support the non-aggression principle, but has no problem appearing on the state propaganda channel Russia Today funded by the theft of the Russian people.
