If libertarianism were easy to explain, and it weren't easy to exaggerate the effects of libertarianism, i think it would have been done already. many many very intelligent people have applied themselves to crafting an agenda that people could grab ahold of. but the problem of course is that libertarianism isn't political. it is kind of anti-political. it wants to take a lot of things out of the political arena.

You have to assume that you're talking to the most intelligent, tuned-in audience you could ever get. that's the way you're going to get the best out of people. whether they know you or not shouldn't matter for comedy. they should get to know you pretty quickly. and they should be having a good time pretty quickly.
The difference between ignorant and educated people is that the latter know more facts. but that has nothing to do with whether they are stupid or intelligent. the difference between stupid and intelligent people-and this is true whether or not they are well-educated-is that intelligent people can handle subtlety. they are not baffled by ambiguous or even contradictory situations-in fact, they expect them and are apt to become suspicious when things seem overly straightforward.

One of the great weaknesses of the progressive, as distinct from the religious, mind, is that it has no awareness of truth as such; only of truth in terms of enlightened expediency. the contrast is well exemplified in two exact contemporaries - simone weil and simone de beauvoir; both highly intelligent and earnestly disposed. in all the fearful moral dilemmas of our time, simone weil never once went astray, whereas simone de beauvoir, with i am sure the best of intentions, has found herself aligned with apologists for some of the most monstrous barbarities and falsehoods of history.
They who assert that a blind fatality produced the various effects we behold in this world talk very absurdly; for can anything be more unreasonable than to pretend that a blind fatality could be productive of intelligent beings.
And he’s right to say that every faction loses something when it gains a virtue: the dauntless, brave but cruel; the erudite, intelligent but vain; the amity, peaceful but passive; the candor, honest but inconsiderate; the abnegation, selfless but stifling.
