    For real There is seriously the ability for a libertarian to leftist pipeline, thanks to Americans purposely lacking any political education it’s very easy for someone with no real ideology but is actively disenfranchised by capitalism to see “wow our government is deeply corrupt and does not serve our interests” and think okay well obviously the solution is to dissolve or minimize it and some may also believe that corporations must be broken up too. But because the left has little presence on mainstream political discourse libertarians/conservatives fill that whole perfectly with their deep anti-government complaining, occasionally co-opting of leftist language and “corpratism” bs but those who don’t subscribe very deeply to the unfettered capitalism and reactionary parts of libertarianism can easily be educated on how capitalism can actively encourages everything that is disenfranchising them, and class dynamics etc… that is if they are willing to engage in good faith and all that but it’s at least worth a shot.

      Even if you don't see any immediate change, even showing them the non-propaganda version of communism and communists might plant some seeds. I can trace my leftward trajectory all the way back to a single moment over 20 years ago so who knows?
