Polish libertraians are mostly libertarian-christo-nazi-monarchist mix, and before you ask, i don't see much sense in this either, but they manage somehow.

Well that's a definitely a new branch of the libertarian ideological family for me. I much prefer geoism lockhism and minarchism.

It's such a great example of libertarianism in action that I ask every libertarian I see what their solution is. Surprisingly, nobody has answered yet.

My favorite thing is basically every libertarian is their own flavor, and every other person isn't a "real libertarian." They're even less unified that Christianity as a whole, and that's saying something.

My second favorite thing about libertarianism is this shitpost article turned copypasta https://www.newyorker.com/humor/daily-shouts/l-p-d-libertarian-police-department

Shitting in the town well is an act of aggression against the entire town. So is wanton neglect that causes a mauling. So the normal case of operation in a libertarian based societt would be to charge the responsible party with the crime against the injured party. Find evidence to support that claim and then convict them in a court of their peers.

Most people don't understand that libertarianism is a double-edged sword or rather that it should be applied as such. You're free to do what you want, but you're not free of the consequences of your actions.

You're getting shat on pretty hard. Geoism is at least trying to critic and solve economic problems.

Still most libertarians will get in line with harmful ancap ideas out of the naive all regulations are bad. Its also always the laughable privatization of roads or getting rid of OSHA. Bonus points if they have a Melei shaped dildo.

I'm empathic to the leave me alone vibe of some libertarian, but if you still identify as them please do some self reflection that your party only seriously promotes harmful stuff associated withthem.

I always think less of people when I see them jerking themselves off over isms and sects.

Truly missing the forest for the trees.
