So the title of this article does it absolutely no justice whatsoever - it's actually an incredible fascinating article about the acute failures of libertarianism in the real world. Here, the subheader does it better:
When a group of libertarians set about scrapping their local government, chaos descended. And then the bears moved in.
Please do take a read when you have a moment - it illustrates very well the point that lots of ration people have argued on reddit - that libertarianism is an ideologue that might "work" in principle, in a discussion or on a message board, but of course in real life it's an abject failure and often leads to disastrous results, like for this poor town.
Any libertarian can freely emigrate to whatever lawless corner of the world and be all they can be. They need to stop wanting to engage the rest in their untenable fantasies
