We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

The Good Muslims should copy the Good Blacks A month after the September 11th attacks I posted a long article on the Libertarian Alliance Forum which prophecied/threatened/feared/was-trying-to-prevent-by-threatening a possible Western slaughter of Muslims. All Muslims. It caused quite a ruckus there. The grammar was a bit overwrought but it still reads well. What did it say? Pretty much what J. J. Johnson says in this.
Summary: if the Good Muslims want to go on being treated like Good Muslims, then they had damn well better sort out the Bad Muslims.
There’s no denying that there’s an extra frisson to Johnson’s piece that comes from him being a black man. He mentions how he and his fellow Good Blacks of American are now sorting out the Bad Blacks of America more energetically than they used to (instead of blaming it all on White America), and cites this as the kind of example that the Good Muslims ought to follow.

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.
