I called that "just joking, unles..." tactic "Schrodinger's Asshole" until I was informed that Schrodinger, like American Libertarians, was both an asshole and a child predator so the "yes/no" box gag doesn't really apply; it's more "yes/yes."

They had a “slavery was good for black people” post a while back.

This is not much more extreme than the average liberal who honest to God believes that the colonisation of the third world was a net positive, or at least "nuanced".

This goes for 99% of fascist beliefs. Tone them down a bit and you get liberalism. It's why liberal republics are incubators for fascism.

Which is different from Rothbard’s “selling children is fine, actually” how, exactly?

Libertarianism: an idea so good it’s mandatory.

Most libertarians I've met are also nationalists. Especially ones that are anywhere near their local party. They tend to also be pretty extreme nationalists, believing all the war hype unconditionally.

They could be using it in the original sense,where it means a community of people tied together by a common cultural heritage and not in the nation-state sense

Which, don't get me wrong,it's still incredibly racist,as the "white" nation is a fabrication of the American state as opposed to a natural cultural identity

It's cute they think that was accidental

how do you do fellow wink libertarian wink, just pointing out you're ~~giving the game a~~- it sounds like the thing it's obviously a mistake!!

TIL of .

what is even the fucking difference between fascists and libertarians?

First as a tragedy, then as a farce (for all the libs, libertarians included, that have come since). They've been kicking a dead horse for almost a century now tbh, though I suppose there's a sort of (deeply tired and terrible) humor to it, as they can always discover new pathetic lows for humanity.

Uh no, don't disrespect children like that. They're smarter than this. But one thing I know for sure, libertarians sure do like children... :libertarian-approaching:

Well why else do you need to secure the children?

Is there any difference at all between nazis and American libertarians at this point, except maybe some vague economic policy or lack thereof?

I mean capitalism is authoritarian but most American "libertarians" support it

Since when did American Libertarians have ideological consistency at all? They go wherever "ME ME ME MINE MINE MINE" winds are blowing.
