Fail Quotes

Not really laughing; sounds like a typical 4channer to me.

I read a few sentences in and said "This guy watches WAY too many mafia movies."

I think you mean "\b\tard".

Oh no!
Now whenever I read that fail quote, I keep picturing being read in a really really bad Italian accent.

I have to agree with you on that one. "The People" are usually responsible for more fuck ups than the government itself.

No words.  No words at all.

[Gumba Masta]

Oh yeah?

Who's the bigger fuck up? The fuck up or the fuck up who let's him stay in power?

[MrBogosity]

The thing is, when people fuck up, they usually just fuck themselves. When government fucks up, they fuck up everyone else.

wizkid2000 has his lucid moments.
This post isn't about those:

For someone who loves philosophy, you seem to subscribe to some form of scientism. It's amazing how you don't understand how flawed this is."

Science is not the only or final arbiter of truth. For example a priori knowledge is true and not scientific. Anyone who understands basic philosophy knows that that god is metaphysical claim that can not be addressed by science.

A claim that is meaningless without the real world (scientific) empirical evidence supporting the Austrian School.
Same question as to the anti-Austrians.
If the Austrian School's use of Praxeology is NOT scientific/empirical, how/why did it PREdict all the boom/bust cycles since and including the Great Depression, including the one going on right now?

"Here's the problem: all of the people who understand anything about the subject recognize that evolution didn't stop at the neck.

He wants you to cite creationist hacks like Tim Wise, Gould or Flynn.

It just amazes me how people will deny something that is so obviously true. They've fallen for the 'culture', 'education' and 'privilege' mysticism."--Fringeelements,

After seeing him refer to Stephen Jay Gould as a "creationist hack" I simply HAD to post that as a fail quote.
It simply amazes me how anti-science so many Anti-statists can be.
Also, both of the videos above, are also fail quotes.
Enjoy. :3

[MrBogosity]

And since when is Tim Wise a creationist?

[Gumba Masta]

And Gould?

In stark contrast to how cracked.com portrays them: http://www.cracked.com/funny-1143-4chan/
Damn, I couldn't get through that.  It was scary, yet, I wouldn't be surprised if (knowing cracked.com ) that is cherry picked, or worse...

How many times have we heard THIS one:
"@Surhotchaperchlorome That [Non-interventionist Foreign Policy] is how Hitler came to power. We wanted to stay out of europe's problems. I'm not saying your thinking is wrong, but we can't just stay out of things. We need a foreign policy that improves our image to the people of other countries, not just their leaders."--Pharaoh481

Please, not while I'm drinking! Tea came out my nose...
