"School Shootings Are Just A Fact of Life"

That's like the ancaps who want to do away with government and collapse politics into market exchange. 

Little do they know, politics would simply return in a new, most likely worse form. 

The same is true of this idea about doing away with political parties. 

All of the Sacred Norms that I like and cement the current elites in power cannot be changed, and to argue otherwise is fascist. Everything falls apart if we change them.

The pesky Moral and Traditional Norms are not sacred and must be changed for equity or something, and to argue otherwise is fascist. Everything falls apart if we keep them and oppressed people will start murdering kids and killing themselves and it will be your fault.

Yep, they would discover that public institutions aren't what's complicating political life, rather political life and the decisions involved are complicated all on their own.

You know, there's a neat symmetry between the button-pushing anarchists on LNF and the communist/socialists who support central planning.

Both have simple answers to complicated problems.

If only we got rid of money, markets, property and prices, a central planner could allocate resources better and make everyone happier. 

In practice, we find these allocative decisions absent market institutions to be intractable, and the whole complex extended order of market production and exchange collapses and people suffer.

We should extend that lesson to politics and remember that absent political parties, the decisions and choices embedded in political questions don't get easier, or more tractable. 

I don't think the current iteration is a problem either, not if the implication is a few tweaks to the current iteration would end the problem.

It's my argument that "The Problem" is rooted in the nature of people living together and can be made worse or better but never solved.

Ok Sybil.

Exactly.

There's no room for in between?

Our founders were all ancaps?
