A blog for people with a critically rational individualist perspective. 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

Most of my old mates from Country Durham probably know how to download porn off the web (that's what its really for after all) but I'd be willing to bet that to a man they think MySpace is where you part your car.

I parted a car right down the middle on a highway bridge abutment many years ago, and believe me, I wasn't interested in anything besides pain killers, heating pads, and massages for quite some time.
Porn stars could have danced around me in saran wrap and I couldn't have even turned my head to watch. My space was one continuous muscle spasm.
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.
The Samizdatistas are:
