Why is the liberal tradition so much richer, so much more prolific than the leftist or reactionary traditions?
For example, the liberal tradition can claim:
>Socrates
>Cicero
>Cato
>Machiavelli
>Adam Smith
>Locke
>Rousseau
>Montesquieu
>Voltaire
>Kant
>Hamilton
>Jefferson
>Bentham
>Tocqueville
>J.S. Mill
>Nietzsche*
>Friedman
>Keynes
>Hayek
>Jung

What can leftists claim? Marx? Mao?
And what of fascists? Mussolini and Evola?
Pathetic.

Point taken, but if the flute is of use then it can be spared of punishment. My way of eco fascism is to reduce waste and useless humans that cannot contribute to society, people like neets, incels and SJW liberals. Also banning reality TV, yellow news and anything related to adult content. So that children can develop into high quallity adults with critical thinking skills they seem to miss. Also banning all migration from nin-white countries with the exception of very talented individuals. And the enforcement of populatiom control in 3rd world countries.

Classical Liberalism does not equal American tranny democrats.

Any society even a fascist one needs to make sure that people cannot get rich from useless skills like entertainment. The distribution of wealth is a legit and needed concept. However giving money to people that refuse to work or to minorities should be banned. For example former Yugoslavia gave money for every Albanian child and they didn't work but they kept breeding like animals. Now we have a terrorist state in the Balkans. So I decided to follow liberal eco fascism, it will help the poor and working class of the prefered ethnicity while deporting and reducing the numbers of any unwanted. It will enforce eco friendly laws and invest most of it's budget into science, education and research and not into useless endeavours like war. The result will be a clean etno state. Also the regime will allow any and all constructive opposition because only through criticism can we progress further, bad opposition won't exist or will be dealt with.

Making spears is time consuming. It would be far more efficient to just pay someone who is specialized in that craft while chad grug spends his time on the activity that he is best at: hunting. As for the slavery scenario, in order for chad grug to pull that off and have enough support for it, we'd be talking about a society that no longer resembles the caveman/ state of nature scenario. It is difficult to force someone into slavery in a state of nature because at the end of the day, no man is that much more powerful than any other man. No matter how strong you are, a spear to the throat in your sleep will still put you down, and that's just what you get if you piss enough people off by stealing their shit.

historically, liberal tradition is much richer, because it is older, though some of these examples are anachronistic (cicero, socrates, cato) or just plain wrong (nietzsche). certainly many figures from antiquity influenced liberalism (and fascism and socialism for that matter), but liberalism as a political philosophy began in the 17th century. machiavelli is probably a bit of an edge case.

B keeps it. You guide B to consider lending it to A for the enrichment of all, but it's ultimately there's to learn as they please. Also consider B to teach A and C to make their own. Tell A and C not to be entitled fucks. If C's situation prevents them from learning, discuss with the group whether you all would be willing to help C out, or just help them out yourself.

I bet the rich man could play the flute and had children who could make them. Guess where they are now? Hell. Burning there for eternity. While Lazarus, had nothing in this life. No comfort. Received no compassion. All he asked for was a few crumbs. Poor Lazurus received them not. Oh how big of a difference would they have made! When he came to pass, he went straight to heaven. Think over your choices carefully friends. Eternity is at stake.

Literally the opposite of a liberal. Immoral, aristocratic, eugenist, anti-egalitarian, anti-demogratic, etcetera.
>Jung
Unless you're Jordan Peterson, he isn't worth shit to liberal tradition. Jung is a soft-reactionary whose spirituality would probably justify a hierarchical regime. He went as far as to describe as Hitler embodying Wotan.
>Hayek
He's a neoliberal and all, but he went all the way in Pinochet apologetics. Even affirming that a dictatorship is suitable for transitioning to democracy in his interviews and that a dictatorship is needed to stop a government from becoming too leftwing in "Constitution of Liberty".

Nietzsche was anti-authoritarian and very individualist. He also was the harbinger of subjective value theory. So he belongs in the tradition.
