What’s happened to Westeros’ social security trust fund? Should it take low-income Dothraki four years to get a hair-braiding license? Watch!

Fuck you, that Bullet train to Riverrun was necessary!!
I want a spin-off about wildlings….They are pretty cool
Oh good lord 4:16 just killed me! AHAHAHAHAH!!! I can't stop laughing!!!!!! :"D AHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!!!
Politics aside this was hilarious. Also, around the 4:36 mark, you left out quite a few (obvious) names.
"Less government" –> dystopian social-darwinist anarchy & seizure of power by private corporations with private armies –> Neo-Feudalism = "more government", this time private government
Libertarianism = Poorly Disguised Fascism
Kinda obvious if you have half a brain and can think one step ahead.
Still funny video, though.
Just like real Libertarian… the strong will take power.
Look how I try to push my Ideology without trying to understand the show.
This was a clever, funny video that pokes fun at everyone, including libertarians, and yet there are still a bunch of comments like "haha yeah, but really fuck libertarianism though". Goodness, people, can't we just have a nice chuckle for once?
Liberals actually think they're getting social security lmao
"We all know winter is coming, but the answer lies in innovation. Not in rationing wood and coal." Wait, how is that positive libertarian propaganda?
lol gary johnson the king and bill weld the hand
I hope they made more of these.
"peer pressure" okay that one was actually funny
Well, all in all it looks completely fucked, because that individual liberty thing you said, but chances are high, VERY VERY HIGH, that I'm just an idiot and got it wrong. Individual liberty, if I'm not mistaken, is the right for individuals to do whatever the fuck they wish, without restriction, otherwise your infringing on their liberty. So, in other words, anarchy. Everyone does what they want, eventually a few clucks decide an army is needed to conquer the world, because, individual liberty, and all the fucking awesome mind altering drugs that that provides, (not bashing drugs, pretty cool, but I'd like someone to stop me if I ever believe the world belongs to the order of Klechks). The army conquers and eventually through pillaging and destruction, establishes itself as an unquestionable power which people follow. AKA: Democracy, Socialism, Communism, Monarchy, ect: chy's. I'm just sploofing here though, not much a fuck as to what I'm talking about.
Everyone stop to read the scrolling text in the news reports??? Totally worth it.
Wait do libertarians not believe in revenge because im in the wrong party
Very clever video, I've been a libertarian for decades and a game of thrones fan almost as long. To see these two so expertly put together just gives me hope for humanity. Keep up the good work, more stuff like this and people will eventually see the light
I know this is supposed to be a parody but it's actually so accurate
Mexicans are the freefolk?? What is this pile of shit.
Do a Socialist Edition
Nails the asshole libertarian.
Born and Cuba and socialism and communism suck. And sure sounded at first a lot like what liberals seem to want. Liberals are scum and want something that they never experienced. Look no further then Cuba or Venezuela and you'll get your answer. Be happy to be in the US where for the most part is very capitalist and individuals can flourish on their merits and skills. If you want socialism and communism please hit me up a d I'll buy you a one way ticket to Cuba so you can love there.
Fuck liberals.
Lysa Arryn defends public breastfeeding. I'm dying
"Republican moto:9/11"
1.33 aaaah…. the truth
The wall isn't for the free folk.
more please 🙂
"basically just a Ponzi scheme" couldn't have said it better !
this made me laugh so much
