The spectacular implosion of the Libertarian Party
The spectacular implosion of the Libertarian Party
Eight years ago, America’s third-largest party had its best-ever showing. Then came the fallout.
How can something implode if it never had cohesion to begin with? Or coherence for that matter.
The only real thing they agree on is that the government shouldn't tax anyone and there shouldn't be any regulations on anything. At least according to the self-proclaimed libertarian I used to work with. Which is an asinine and immature view of how modern societies need to operate.
They never have an answer for how roads are supposed to be built or how fire and policeman are supposed to be funded. I guess they don't realize that privatizing everything would cost the individual exorbitantly more than if they just paid taxes.
Libertarians are just Republicans who don't want to openly call themselves Republicans. They vote along Republican lines, support Republicans and are the Republican's useful idiots. I really don't see a difference in the actions between Republicans and libertarians, only in the b.s they spew
Plus they want to smoke weed while also believing heinous shit.
If you put three libertarians in a room, the only thing on which they'll all agree is that there is only one libertarian in the room.
Didn't they all just go off into the mountains on their horses to live off the land and not bother anybody?
The bears routed them
Libertarians I know are the dumbest fucking people.
They're like house cats. They like to think they are autonomous and in charge, but they have no fucking clue as to all of the logistics that go into making their existence possible.
I was wondering the other day why I hadn't really seen them this cycle.
Because the GOP and extremist took over the party...so many "libertarians" today are just gop because they don't want to be labeled a repub. The NH project is a perfect example of that.
So an organization based on the founding principle of, "I've got mine, fuck you" couldn't find a way for its members to work together?
Their whole platform was only liked by people who used it to excuse their racism and pedophilia, with the modern political landscape, they've become redundant.
I love the libertarian idea, as long as you don't harm someone else or their property go for it. However the libertarian party is such a fucking joke.
