Darwinian, suvival of the fittest, I like it. Everyone should have banning powers though or the weakest still have a chance.

I think libertarianism is more freedom of speech than that

Wow this guy is so fucked up. I can't believe hes popping balloons. It doesn't get more fucked up than that. This speaks volumes for the human race as a whole - this shirtless old man popping balloons can only mean that we as a human race are fucked up.

Please close and delete moderators! This is shit and seems kinda inappropriate with not much of a point.

Indeed. In fact, the tenets of libertarianism are firmly rooted in well-defined property rights - a notion which clearly precludes an even distribution of power in most respects. Libertarianism would recognise absolute authority, in this case, as resting in and only in the hands of the owners of Team Liquid - at least as regards content. The server it is hosted on, however, is likely owned by another party who would have clear jurisdiction over the site in general, most likely subject to restrictions agreed upon in a contract as of the inception of the site. Yet again, the data network owners too would have authority. The chobos who happen to stroll in off the street (ie:the rest of us) would have no say whatsoever. Such authority would exist only when we were the owners.

Sadly, most libertarians don't know much about libertarianism. Neither do most non-libertarians. I suggest for everyone a serious read of Rothbard's Man, Economy, and State - in particular the complete edition with Power and Market. It's probably one of the greatest books ever written.
