I recently appeared in the comments of a live stream that was about to begin on Yaron Brooks’ channel to make sure they had seen my debate challenge and rebuttals to the various bad takes on anarcho-capitalism from Yaron over the past couple years.
For the record – this is the log of that chat including a few responses from Yaron and excluding chat that was unrelated to me between other people. I have tried for 2 years now to engage a mind I respected in discourse or debate. I am now left with nothing but condescension, insult, and non-arguments. I will not be pursuing this debate any further.

You are 100% wrong on Anarcho Capitalism Yaron — and I’m not 40 yet. Debate me. ❤ https://youtu.be/r3HnAdo5u6U

Why should he debate you?Patrick Smith
Why should I respond to you?Derick Bellamy
To show him you can answer that question so he’ll debate you?Patrick Smith
I’m happy to chat with him about that. 🙂Stefan Burns
You have to answer how a state-like entity wouldn’t arise out of anarchy. It’s completely indefensiblePatrick Smith
If any of you would like to discuss the logical conclusion of Objectivism, Anarcho-Capitalism, you are welcome to contact me on any of my socials or our discord server.Patrick Smith
I am not worried about having my ideas tested. Disenthrall.me/platformsDerick Bellamy
>happy to chat with himDerick Bellamy
How’s that going?Yaron Brook
I love it, when people want to lecture Ayn Rand on the logical conclusion of her own philosophy… It is inevitably a consequence of them not understanding Objectivism.Patrick Smith
Not well. He, like many commies, worry that to debate someone is to endorse them…. Which is precisely false. To debate someone is to say up front you dont agree with them.Patrick Smith
I want to know as many true things as I can and I want to know as few false things as I can. This requires discourse, for which I welcome. If I am wrong I really would like to know how. Dont you?Stefan Burns
That’s your job to figure that out. not Yaron’sPatrick Smith
That’s his response to make. not yours.Derick Bellamy
Well insulting him and spamming him on Twitter hasnt worked lolPatrick Smith
I have never done either. 😕Mary @H2OsEdge
@Patrick Smith What is the book that you have written on that subject? You should probably read Ayn Rand before you go to the trouble of writing it.Yaron Brook
What do you call this “He, like many commies”?Patrick Smith
@Yaron Brook – you said my ethical framework was no better than the commies… Am I not allowed to point out when you take a play from their book?Derick Bellamy
Not to say not being a public figure invalidates you intellectually. But if you arent one it stands to reason you better bring something else…Yaron Brook
I gave a whole argument in my Polish debate. You just throw it out as an insult. And, you think that will make me take you seriously. Grow up…J
What does Patrick want to debate precisely?Patrick Smith
Whatever that dude was in that debate was anything but representative of the ancap ideas. But you throw him at me as an insult. Not an argument. 😕Derick Bellamy
Make your own movement instead of pestering people with their own established ideas into redefining them for you. Its very second-handed.Stefan Burns
If you want Yaron to act like a commie he’d go against his life and values and debate youPatrick Smith
anyway — I welcome good polite discussion. Any of you are welcome to hit me up. I’d be thrilled to learn how I”m wrong. I’ll leave you to your show. 🙂Derick Bellamy

”Polite discussion” Might want to lead by example 😂
Your boo’s mean nothing; I’ve seen what makes you cheer.
Every breath I take without your permission raises my self esteem.
