I think something we need to periodically remind ourselves of, as activists for , , , , , and otherwise ideas is that we all share the single most important difference with the movement: we are all against , , , and .

While we have our disagreements, that alone should be enough for against the looming threat: when wins, EVERYONE loses.

Yes, likely a , though I wouldn't rule out "fossil fuel lobbyist."

In theory, extreme adherence to the libertarian ideal "live and let live" wouldn't allow pollution that would have a significant deleterious effect on others' lives -- even in aggregate.

But given many libertarians just use its "philosophy" as an incoherent excuse for their selfish behaviors that do in fact harm others, or to justify a system rigged in their favor, I shouldn't set my expectations too high

Thanks to this article and its description of Rio Verde Foothills, AZ, I have a new way to describe libertarians: people who'd rather die of thirst than pay taxes.

(Although Grafton, NH gives us "people who'd rather be mauled by bears than pay taxes", which also has a nice ring to it.)

@echanda @Leszek_Karlik @HeavenlyPossum I consider IP to be the first type of property to be abolished, not an afterthought. It can't even be justified by the idealized just-so stories that capitalists like to use to justify absentee property ownership -- that's why many US Libertarians and AnCaps oppose IP. It is purely a state-designed industrial policy, implemented without good empirical or theoretical justification, and easily abused by special interests (as evident by the retroactive copyright extension from the Sonny Bono/Mickey Mouse protection act).
We could abolish it tomorrow with minimal disruption to the real economy. We could reduce copyright term to 30 years and change hardly anything at all except for the profits of some plutocrats.

'Libertarian' is shorthand for 'selfish asshole who thinks he did everything on his own his whole life, like no one built the roads he drives on or the schools he barely got by in.'

Totally understandable they'd wanna shorten that.

Not sure how he is if he wants to make the FRN legal tender and the American sources claim he admires Trump.

But probably better than what Argentina has had. @ftl @realcaseyrollins
