    It really does start looking like a mental disorder the more you get to know actual libertarians. I can understand people who don't trust the government, want to live off the land, and haven't really put much thought into what all that deregulation and privatization would actually mean for a society. It's the people who have thought about it and genuinely do not give a fuck how much suffering their belief system would cause if put into practice that worry me.

      Remember that one tweet about a libertarian who only stopped being a libertarian once he got high and realized other people have feelings

      It's holding up everything against "freedom" without ever actually defining what freedom is because that's too much thinking

      It's Petit-Bourgeois ideology. 90% of society is structured to advantage you, but because there's a guy ahead of you who uses that remaining 10% to keep himself ahead of you, you're a victim of the entire system.
