Libertarians are just conservatives + weed - religion.
Libertarianism is the ideology of those with various conditions and states of mind, where empathetic and emotional reasoning is “divergent” from the norm.
I was libertarian for a minute, because weed and hookers sounded nice at the time, until it dawned on me, “Wait, you trust corporations in a consumeristic society to make ethical decisions without guardrails?”
So much for Live and Let Live.
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
Listen, they’re willing to compromise on the gay marriage thing just as long as you get the fascism.
The dirty little secret is Libertarians have always been a small pebble kick from fascism.
Their whole ideology is based in Social Darwinism
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
Smokes dope, skips church, and ignores age-of-consent.
The latter was picked up by the mainstream party.
That’s some high quality snark. Excellent work.
The people who want small government wants the government to kill the opposition… Which doesn’t sound very small government.
Hey that’s not fair, they want some rando to kill the opposition and the government to do nothing about it.
They literally never wanted a small government. It was always just the excuse they used to attack a liberal government.
They wanted “small governement”*.
*government that doesn’t restrict them from doing whatever they want.
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.
They were basically copy/pasting Russian state propaganda for several years before that. It was wild.
The Libertarians in New Hampshire are not dumb. We win all the time. We have a strategy that works. We know how to be team players.
Hey Lemmy.world TOS, when are we going to be allowed to say what needs to be done in response?
NH libertarians have good track record of governing,

Oh, they’re a classy bunch
New Hampshire Libertarians tweet image of Zelensky with Hitler mustache
Also :
In another tweet from Aug. 26, which has since been deleted, the party wrote: “6 million dollar minimum wage or you’re antisemitic.”
To be fair, a libertarian would probably support the assassination of anything government related.
They’re Libertarians, not libertarians.
The “Libertarians of NH” com is run by Republicans, which is why they’re advocating votes for Republicans rather than Libertarians.
If they were a real libertarian party New Hampshire might be a pretty good state to actually compete with the Republicans.
New Hampshire has more Dems than GOP at this point. Harris beat Trump by 3-pts in 2024, when she was underwater in every other battleground state. The only reason Sununu has a chance at the Senate in 2026 is his last name (same reason Manchin was impervious to Republicans in West Virginia).
The Free State Project has been a joke since the Obama Era. Not only did Libertarians fail to flip the state, but Masshole Liberals have fully swamped whatever base of Libertarian support the state once had.
Sure. I’m saying the Libertarians could match the state sentiment and social environment better than the Republicans. Libertarianism is an easy philosophy to adopt if you hate taxes and believe in “personal responsibility” but don’t want to be socially ostracized for the Republican’s culture war/many state.
I’m saying the Libertarians could match the state sentiment and social environment better than the Republicans.
I think that’s been empirically disproven
libertarians hate government
Not when a fascist is in government
The only support they need is free money. It’s interesting how people with no balls interpret this information.
GOP looks scared
