| Message | We both know that there's a difference between taxes and theft. Maybe that is hard for you to understand because you also want to legalize adultery and bestiality, but lets put that aside. I fully agree with the Konfederacio Nacia de la Laboro. |
| Date | 00:18:23, March 02, 2017 CET | From | Liberecana Unio | To | Debating the Libertarian Civil Liberties Act 12/4173 |
| Message | There is a tiny difference, because some services provide by the state with tax payer money, like the army, are used by everyone. |
| Date | 00:22:14, March 02, 2017 CET | From | Liberecana Unio | To | Debating the Libertarian Civil Liberties Act 12/4173 |
| Message | We fully disagree with Laboro, the proletariat is dying, machines are replacing them. Exploitation does not exist, if the working conditions are consensually agreed upon, by the way, Social Libereco Partio, why should the government be involved in people's beds? Adultery for example is no more than, and I quote the official dictionary definition: "adultery (əˈdʌltərɪ) n, pl -teries (Law) voluntary sexual intercourse between a married man or woman and a partner other than the legal spouse". Bestiality is of course morally wrong, but who is the government to interven in such situations, if no one is harmed? |
| Date | 02:32:46, March 02, 2017 CET | From | Socia Libereco Partio | To | Debating the Libertarian Civil Liberties Act 12/4173 |
| Message | Definition of adultary from thefreedictionary.com: a·dul·ter·y (ə-dŭl′tə-rē, -trē) n. pl. a·dul·ter·ies Consensual sexual intercourse between a married person and a person other than the spouse. In your definition I see the word "voluntary", which gives the word a completely different definition. Please, do me a favor in the future and leave your censorship behind. |

| Message | Consensual and Voluntary mean the same thing... |

| Message | http://www.dictionary.com/browse/adultery also uses the word voluntary, however voluntary and consent means the same thing in this context ie. Not forced. |
