How am I supposed to live with the knowledge that my father, who served in the KGB and early FSB, will be killed under ancap?

Or at least they will force him to pay giant compensations for numerous NAP violations on his part in connection with his service, and those debts that he doesn’t manage to pay off will be passed to me as inheritance, even though I was born after his retirement and am not to blame for what he did. Bitarch, do you also believe that children should answer for the debts and crimes of their parents?

I think that in the early nineties, he faced a much greater danger of being killed, because it only sounds beautiful—revenge, they say, is a dish best served cold. In fact, old events are soon replaced by more current ones, and those who fervently desired to take revenge on KGB employees, but did not bother to do so immediately after the organization was disbanded, now dream of taking revenge on someone else, but they are also unlikely to ever bother to do so.

Ancap means the decentralization of law. A violation of the NAP will not punish itself. Until a specific subject appears who decides to prosecute your father for that specific damage he caused them, there will be no prosecution.

But.

There is such a thing as a herd reflex. It is enough for someone very persistent, for example, Navalny, to actually achieve a trial against a number of FSB employees and recover damages from them through the court—and then others will want to as well. And if the same Navalny manages to provide a convenient service for this, the matter could proceed much more actively. Instead of Navalny, I would put Svetov, but I have much less faith in the latter: he is exceptionally resentful, but he hasn’t been noticed for litigiousness yet, limiting himself to publicism.

However, even in the case where people, with the help of former political prisoner lawyers, begin to mass-file lawsuits against former security agency employees, your father will most likely still end up somewhere far at the end of the list. I suspect that if he had ill-wishers whom he truly had reason to fear, he killed them back when he still wore the shoulder straps.

As for their descendants, the fact that a ghoul who killed their parents lives somewhere will be more of a matter of curiosity for them. Find him, come, look him in the eyes. Humph and leave. I don’t guarantee such an outcome, but it is also completely unrealistic to expect that under ancap everyone will suddenly become real jigits and practice blood feuds.

How do you feel living with the awareness that your father will most likely come out of this scrape unscathed, even if he was up to his elbows in blood in the late Soviet era? Well, I hope this will bother you, but not to the point of serious neuroses. And if he is caught in some way, libertarianism denies the right to recover for actions to which you were not party, so the maximum you face is the seizure of property that your father tries to hurriedly transfer to you once he smells smoke. In this case, the fact of your cooperation with him in the act of hiding assets that may be subject to seizure will be too obvious to ignore.

Following Svetov, I would also advise the father to seek active repentance, but this step, while morally justified, carries more utilitarian risks than potential benefits, so let him weigh and decide for himself.

As for Bitarch, I hope he will share his opinion on this matter in the comments.
