Libertarian in America just means a Republican who smokes dope and skips church.
I’m not a conspiracy guy, but if a billionaire invented a political philosophy that benefited himself, it’d look a whole lot like American libertarianism.
That describes what the Koch brothers did to the Libertarian party.
There are at least a few of us that hold to the old meaning
Which is?
Left anarchist
Honestly there are so few examples of this being the case in the current day that you’re probably better off just forgetting this fact to avoid confusion. It’s kinda similar to how the Nazis labeled themselves as “Social Democrats” but by the time 1940 rolled around, if you so much as mentioned socialism or democracy around a Nazi official then the Gestapo would be at your doorstep within hours
The Libertarian National Committee expelled the LPNH earlier this year. They probably should have done it earlier, as the LPNH has a long history of outrageous public statements.
The establishment Dems have indisputably aligned with Libertarian values better than the GOP ever has.
Libertarians support the GOP more because, at least in America, they aren’t actually fucking Libertarians. They’re fascists + marijuana and gay marriage
NH libertarians have good track record of governing,

Hey Lemmy.world TOS, when are we going to be allowed to say what needs to be done in response?
LPNH are nuts and a lot more fashy leaning than your typical libertarian. Iirc they encouraged beating BLM protestors while the national party supported BLM 100%
GOP looks scared
libertarians hate government
Not when a fascist is in government
Libertarians are just conservatives + weed - religion.
So much for Live and Let Live.
