    The document discusses libertarianism and how it relates to the character Rick Sanchez from the show Rick and Morty. It argues that Rick Sanchez exhibits libertarian beliefs through his distrust of government and desire for personal freedom. However, the rebuttal cautions that just because a TV show portrays something, it does not necessarily mean it is true, and people should seek evidence before believing claims, as one can be misled if solely relying on what they hear from others. The discussion questions then ask how the respondent would describe Rick Sanchez, whether libertarianism fits the episode's portrayal, and how people can determine if something is a political issue or a lie.

    Libertarianism/Liberalism

    Libertarianism manages to lean towards economic issues and liberal on


    everyone's freedom/personal freedom, libertarianism is shown in the episode
    because rick just wants to be safe and home with his family but instead he got
    taken by this alien then he also got taken by the citadel of ricks which
    definitely shows rick has no freedom because someone is always after him or
    wants to kill him but continuing on rick sanchez is counted as libertarianism
    because he disagrees with what any government has to say because rick
    sanchez believes he’s a god and that the government is just a waste of time

    Rebuttal
    It is important to remember that just because this show talks about how bad
    the government is and how the government is basically a lie you can’t believe
    everything you hear on tv or in general because you never know who's
    secretly lying to you or doesn’t wanna tell you something that might play a
    key role in your life, us as people should always look for evidence if something
    is a lie or if something is fake because without evidence how can you prove
    your point to people who depend on other people to tell them what to do and
    tell them what to believe
