Entanglement theory spits in the face of libertarian delusions, shattering their fantasy of pristine individualism. Turns out, the universe doesn’t give a damn about your “personal autonomy”—everything’s tangled in an invisible web, whether you like it or not. While libertarians preach self-reliance, quantum mechanics laughs and reminds them that no one, not even a particle, stands alone.
1. Radical Individualism – Libertarians idolize the individual as completely autonomous, while quantum physics shows that even at the subatomic level, particles are entangled, existing in relation to each other.
2. Free Will as Supreme – The libertarian ideal of total free will clashes with quantum uncertainty and probability, where outcomes aren’t determined by choice but by chance and entanglement.
3. Cause and Effect is Always Local – Libertarians believe in direct cause and effect. But quantum physics has demonstrated that entangled particles influence each other instantaneously, even across vast distances—no locality required.
4. Self-Ownership – Libertarians claim people (or particles, in this case) can entirely own themselves. But quantum entanglement shows that no particle is truly independent, so the concept of “self-ownership” is blurry at best.
5. Rational Decision-Making – Libertarians often believe in the supremacy of reason and predictability in decision-making, yet quantum physics is governed by randomness and uncertainty.
6. Non-interventionism – Libertarians argue for minimal interference, but quantum particles meddle in each other’s states constantly, proving that even on a fundamental level, there’s no such thing as non-intervention.
7. Absolute Property Rights – In a libertarian view, what’s yours is yours. But in the quantum world, particles share properties across vast distances, violating this sense of ownership.
8. Isolationist Independence – The idea that one can exist in isolation crumbles when quantum particles show they are intrinsically linked, where one’s state affects the other, no matter how far apart.
9. Objective Reality – Libertarians believe in concrete, objective realities, yet quantum mechanics reveals that reality changes based on observation, upending the notion of a stable, absolute world.
10. Linear Time and Progress – Libertarians see time and progress as linear and cumulative. Quantum theory throws that out the window, showing that at a fundamental level, time can be fluid, and effects can precede causes.
