Cory Massimino studies philosophy at the University of Central Florida. He is a Fellow at the Center for a Stateless Society. His research focuses on virtue ethics, market process economics, and anarchist political theory. His writings have appeared in outlets such as The Guardian, The Independent, and Playboy. Cory began his political journey on the libertarian right. His political philosophy is now more closely associated with what some might call left libertarianism. The libertarian left in America has many tendencies that separate itself from or are sometimes even hostile to thinkers such as Ayn Rand or Murray Rothbard. However, my guest today challenges us to not throw out the baby with the bathwater and feels that it’s entirely possible to reject and to criticize the reactionary shortcomings of some of these thinkers, while also highlighting the contributions they made to a kind of libertarianism that may be worth taking inspiration from. In this interview, we discuss a variety of topics ranging from immigration to egalitarianism, to free market- anti capitalism, and more https://c4ss.org/content/author/cory- massimino https://www.borderangels.org
