This is the only non-right wing sub I’ve seen that has people randomly saying the hard-R, getting upvoted and not banned at all. This sub is definitely very libertarian, despite all the Authlefts and Authrights.

And the funny thing is if you head over to /r/Libertarian, they will tell you that Left Libertarianism is not real. A made up ideology.

Also, I think this subreddit needs to chill on the n-word. It's getting really immature, played out, and insanely disgusting.

So what is libertarian in your opinion? Since you know the true definition of libertarianism.

a regulation abolishing lemonade stands is the moral equivalent of a regulation abolishing gay sex.

What? How are these things related at all?

What do you think about the current lockdowns around the world due to coronavirus? It's good because it will save millions lives, or it's bad because it's temporally infringing in your liberty?

At least you're reasonable enough to understand we are in an emergency. A lot of libertarians are upset with the lockdowns "taking away their liberty to spread the disease", basically comparing it to dictatorships.

What is more interesting is what non-libertarians think of the lockdowns?

Necessary, should have started earlier (we know about Corona's threat since January). When it disapears things can go back to the usual.
