I have some things to say about Laurencianism.

1. "The people are free from taxes"

What the Right doesn't realize about taxes, is that their purpose is to make healthcare and education, among other things, more accessible to the general populace. If there are no taxes, the poor cannot pay for education or healthcare, so they live crappy lives, get sick, and die. But what if the poor can't pay taxes? Have them pay less taxes because they're poorer.

2. "The government should try to avoid supporting fascist, communist, socialist, anarchist, Islamic theocracies, and Zionist nations due to their corrupt and anti-liberty nature."

Fascism, yes. There is no "communist nation", because the world has to be nationless if Communism is to be implemented. Socialist, it depends, as some countries are Socialist, and are completely fine, while other countries pretend to be Socialist (North Korea, the USSR). Anarchist cannot be corrupt or anti-liberty as the definition of Anarchism is a place without laws or government. No government means no corruption and no laws means liberty. Islamic theocracies, yes, but Zionism is literally Israeli patriotism and the will to protect the Jewish Nation, and I see nothing wrong with that and I doubt you do either considering your religious views.

3. "All male citizens should serve in some sort of armed branch, even just the local law enforcement in able to harden and train the men to be strong and to be less sensitive."

Okay, this one's just plain sexist. "Harden and train men to be strong and less sensitive"?!?! This just enforces the stereotype of "boys don't cry". Also, compulsory military service contradicts your theme of freedom. You are literally making men serve in the military. That ain't nice.

Otherwise I mostly agree with it.
