There are anarcho-capitalist authors who defend open borders because they say that freedom of movement cannot be restricted. There are other anarcho-capitalist authors who do not defend open borders ...

But that's a misunderstanding, there is no freedom of movement (as there is no right to free speech either). All rights are property rights. There is a freedom/right to leave, you can't prevent someone to user their body (property) that way. However, there is no such thing as a right to move into anywhere uninvited. The state overriding the owners' will to exclude is just as much of a rights violation as overriding the right to invite would be (not to mention the subsidies or downright organizing the move). Anyone who claims ancapism demands open borders is at best very misguided, but more likely a communist subversive skinsuiting the ideology at this stage.

When someone tells you that man has not reached the Moon, it’s another detector of idiots; the pity is that they discredit other conspiracies that are actually true, although not as they believe. ...

Yes, most of that is fake, or a successful human moon landing doesn't follow from the premise. I'm frankly disappointed with the lack of first principles thinking. "here's a rocket" - so? "here's some grainy pictures" - so? "here's some rocks we have nothing to compare against to see if they are real" "there are some reflectors in there" - not that those couldn't be placed robotically " wouldn't the USSR have said something" - don't pretend to understand the inner workings of the global world order, for all we know they are best buddies behind the scenes "why spend all that money" really? we are down to believing government budgets and questioning what use they would have for a black budget? this utter normie slop, and you know it. The arguments in favor boil down to "USG says so", "most people believe it" therefore "it's uncool to think otherwise" and "it would really hurt my pride as an American if it wasn't". Just let it go...

Always interesting that Hayek and Friedman are more popular than Mises and Rothbard…

It’s pure materialism - no code, no actual substance. Just asking for money. Worse than core. At least they try to ship something - even if it was shit.
