RE: Why Libertarianism Fails: Disunity; Infighting; Political Relinquishment
I don't know whether you or someone else else wrote this, but it is awesome! You are spot on! Thank you for the post! The following is an article that I wrote on jury nullification, I think you will enjoy it.

Thank you, kindly! ...I wrote it. :) I greatly appreciate everyone talking about "jury nullification of law." ("Jury nullification" is better called "jury independence" so it's not confusingly shortened to sounding like the jury is being nullified, or assuming that "jury nullification of law" is appropriate in all cases). BTW: Twitter algorithms at first accepted #JuryIndependence as a hashtag, and then suppressed it. (Twitter also deleted the accounts of the top four Trump supporters who opposed Jeff Sessions' anti-black and anti-Mexican racist #drugwar. Those supporters are: Milo Yiannopoulos, Roger Stone, Martin Shkreli, and Owen Benjamin.)
The most gigantic story about internet censorship is one I don't have the time to fully write: Twitter claims to censor "racist" voices from the right, but what it really does is censor anti-racist individualist voices from culturally right-leaning libertarians. Seen through this new lens, you understand that Twitter, Facebook, G+, Instagram, and other #censorshipmachine platforms are organized in opposition to property rights, and organized in defense of the status quo. This shouldn't be a surprise as the discipline of #Cybernetics (the study of homeostatic or "goal-directed" systems) predicts this.
