On Civilization

The Zero-Aggression Principle is the basis of libertarian ethics:

“A libertarian is a person who believes that no one has the right, under any circumstances, to initiate force against another human being, or to advocate or delegate its initiation. Those who act consistently with this principle are libertarians, whether they realize it or not. Those who fail to act consistently with it are not libertarians, regardless of what they may claim.” – L. Neil Smith

Non-aggression logically implies anarchism, since the state always aggresses.

But most libertarians also believe in property, hence they are ancap (anarcho-capitalist).

I contend that the belief in property is civilization. Those who believe in property, and respect it, always, are civilized human beings. Those who do not are of the jungle. Jungle residents may be hunted, for sport, and civilized law enforcement will allow it.
