    Me: Do not talk to me about libertarian economics. Me: *is immediately buried under memes of eagles and sneks* You people always find a loophole. Clear evidence strong & detailed regulations need to exist. *runs away*

        I admit that I fall into the extremist camp. I'm also pragmatic enough to know that "Libertopia AnCapistan" is a tough pill to swallow. Any small step towards peaceful interaction is a win in my book. Despite any differences, I enjoy your tweets, insight, and articles.

        Allow me to be vague and unconvincing. I once read an article about a succesful strategy to overcome cyber-abuse. It was a mix of a SMALL number of carefully chosen rules combined with empowering users to block and shame abusers.

        Replying to @Ramcgreg @HPluckrose

        Both zero regulation and detalied lists of rules failed. What worked was an interesting mix of empowerment and shaming under an umbrella of general guidelines. "Don't be abusive. Stay on topic...."

        Smart regulation is indeed needed, I agree, and I'm a long-time libertarian-leaning person.
