Rebuttal to an argument against agorism| Off Grid Agorist Live Stream

Recently one of the OG Members in the Discord group posted a link to an article titled “6 Reasons Agorism is a Failed Strategy” and recommended that a rebuttal episode may be interesting. Shout out to Xed101. I After reading the article I agreed with Xed101. So, here it is. Here is a link to the article.  morelibertynow.com As titled the article list 6 reasons for the failure and to avoid any kind of copyright problems I won't publish the article here, but I will list the reasons given. 1 You're Alone 2 High Risk 3 Real World Failure 4 Ineffective 5 Self-limiting 6 Short-sighted The author does make some valid points when it comes to the hurdles of agorism and as a self proclaimed agorist for about 5 years he would certainly be aware of the hurdles but in my opinion these hurdles don't mark the strategy as failed. I don't know if the author intended to use the word failed in the past tense intentionally or not, but it insinuates a sort of finality to the unsuccessful application of agorism. After the second paragraph, the author writes” Agorism is a failed strategy. I encourage people not to pursue it at this time.” This implies that there may be a good time to pursue agorism in the future, but when would that be? I assume he means when these 6 problems have been solved, but none of the problems can be solved without the number of agorists increasing to substantial numbers. Maybe the author means to suggest that you should pursue agorism after other agorists have, through outreach, proselytizing, risk absorption and institution building increased the number of agorists to such levels that these 6 hurdles aren't that risky. This risk avoidance strategy will be employed by most people because most people are not very risk-tolerant when it comes to authority. However, this is accounted for in Konkin's writings. Konkin was clear in his predictions that agorism would take a long time. In this episode, we are going to discuss why we believe none of these 6 reasons are good enough reasons to either say agorism is a failed strategy or that people should not pursue it.
