The Libertaristan initiative is just beginning! We are a growing community and naturally we have our limits. We obviously believe in the plurality of ideas, but more than that, we also believe in the “marketplace of ideas”, that is, we believe that several thinking heads and diverse opinions and worldviews end up creating a kind of natural selection of ideas. We are distinct beings and often have correct reasoning on certain subjects, but wrong on others. However, the best ideas have an economic advantage over others, they are better transmitted, do not need to be promoted and are more easily assimilated. They are “cheaper” than wrong ideas.
To do this, we need several thinking heads and we need help! See here how you can participate in this initiative.

Submit your text
- Send your text to our email admin at libertaristan dot com with the following “subject”: Text application for article
- Write your name on the first line, which will be used to give credit to the author. We accept nicknames and funny names, but the editor may refuse or change them at his/her discretion if they violate the usage policies of the place where it will be published
- In the second line, include a clean and non-dynamic link that we will place in the article on the website and in the description of the video on the platform where it will be published
- Send your text respecting the rules of article structure. Respecting the review rules helps your text to be selected
- Attach a 1280px x 720px image to be used as a cover, we may use another if it does not meet our guidelines
- We may request minor revisions to the text, however, our initiative reserves the right to reject any article at its discretion
- A reviewer may change not only small parts of the text, but also modify, invert or even delete entire sentences or even entire paragraphs
- We look for originality, if we detect the use of AI the text is summarily discarded. Texts with AI are easily detected because they often lack depth in their arguments and are very unoriginal
- Similarly, texts that contain a lot of factual function that do not reach any conclusion and/or obvious conclusions and that do not bring much innovation or depth to the ideas will be discarded
- Eventually we may seek more of the same by seeking new approaches to the same subject, but for now we prioritize variety and expansion of ideas
Stay tuned here, these guidelines are constantly changing.
What do you get?
The Libertaristan initiative has just begun, for now we are just a baby crawling and learning to walk. In the future, we intend to create more incentives to attract the best content creators. These incentives may be monetary and/or the establishment of strong partnerships. However, for now, what we can offer in concrete terms is: Credits to the author, a link that you can use to attract our viewers to your platform and, of course, the pleasure of producing something in favor of freedom and a big thank you! In addition, there is always a promise to create a partnership of mutual help in the medium/long term. We are evaluating the possibility of naming founding partners of the initiative, so stay tuned.
Many times you have your life, you are happy with it and you are not willing to give it all up to dedicate yourself to the ideas of Freedom. Or you have good ideas, but they do not come with the correct frequency to maintain an internet channel. However, your ideas do not have a stage to be presented and you end up not taking advantage of this potential. In this case, we can be that bridge. Here at Libertaristan, several authors will be able to use our platform to spread the ideas of freedom. This way, you can create at your own pace, without the stress of creating something out of obligation.
In the future, once again, we intend to create more advantages for being an author and not just an author, but also a contributor, translator, proofreader and producer of Libertaristan.
Welcome to Libertaristan!
