To set the scene:
Someone quotes Hoppe:
Meanwhile the libertarians begin to talk about it, an anarchist decides to get into the nitty gritty about what the nature of the state is...
When has a government ever given up its power to the people without a bloody revolution?

Someone quotes Hoppe:
Hans Hoppe, Democracy: the God that failed,
"There can be no tolerance toward democrats and communists in a libertarian social order. They will have to be physically separated and expelled from society. Likewise, in a covenant founded for the purpose of protecting family and kin, there can be no tolerance toward those habitually promoting lifestyles incompatible with this goal. They--the advocates of alternative, non-family and kin-centred lifestyles such as, for instance, individual hedonism, parasitism, nature-environment worship, homosexuality, or communism--will have to be physically removed from society, too, if one is to maintain a libertarian order."

Big government is just an initial tool with which we can organize everything properly, then when the tool is not necessary, we throw it away.
