Libertarian presidential nominee says major parties treat voters like dupes - Radio Iowa
The deficit is actually down $100 billion since last year, but I guess it's totally cool to just lie about shit to make yourself seem like the fiscally responsible candidate.
"...he then talked for 35 minutes about how 9/11 and Jan 6th were inside jobs, vaccines cause invisible brain tumors in 100% of people, and how chemtrails made his children Trans."
“…he then talked for 35 minutes about how 9/11 and Jan 6th were inside jobs, vaccines cause invisible brain tumors in 100% of people, and how chemtrails made his children Trans.”
I didn't see that in the article. References or links?
Sure gimme a few minutes. I'll be right back.
Just a reminder that a cornerstone of American libertarianism is the privatization of waterways.
Libertarianism is nestles wet dream.
I recommend you all tag this person so you can see just how much they spam in an attempt to dillute the vote
If you actually see their post history, they look like a normal human and not a MAGA chud or tankie in disguise.
Don’t be a jerk.

I don't spam at all.
And I didn't write the article. And also, do you realize with party Libertarian votes would take away from? Think about that.
And again, I didn't write the article. So if you are mad that things like this make the news, feel free to write the publishers of the news articles. This community is for posting of political news articles.

"The Libertarian Party’s platform calls for significantly reducing the scope of the federal government by getting rid of regulations and cutting spending."
I'm open... which regulations? Which spending?
How do Libertarians do again?

Edit Yes, you read that right. In 2004, one faithless elector cast an electoral college ballot for John Edwards. It's commonly believed this was an error, but it counted anyway. Meaning a mistaken EC vote has counted more than all Libertarian and Green candidates combined in the past 1/4 century.
Because what we all need is our food and water to be even more poisonous. To burn to death cuz we couldn't afford our subscription to firefighters service this month. Or to die of sepsis because of no medical regs at the hospital.
Right-Libertarians aren't serious people. At least not any more serious than a 14 year old ancap.
Hillary didn't and it cost her the election. Any reasonable, well-informed person should have voted against Trump, and she acted as if that applied to most voters.
If voters were well informed, the GOP wouldn't exist. The two parties would be progressives and liberals. Treating voters as a rational group is, in itself, irrational.
This Lemmy community explores and respects diverse viewpoints. I wouldn't advocate that the GOP shouldn't exist. Just as I wouldn't advocate that the DNC shouldn't exist.
And I believe 3rd parties are good for a healthy society.
The counterpoint to progressive action is moderation. The GOP do not represent useful ideas to a happy populous. They rely on lies and a skewed perception of reality. I don't respect a party whose core values are harming others, and I live in a red state so I live through that every day.
I accept and respect various diverse viewpoints on how to best serve the country, including actual libertarian values. I would be more than happy if Joe Manchin was a typical opposing argument to progressive ideals.
