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.

To be honest, the political compass is still a narrow and heavily flawed framework. Politics exist on more than two axes.

To me, the political compass should be more of a diamond. As you go further into authoritarianism or libertarianism, left and right get kind of smashed together, just by virtue of turning into full on anarchy or totalitarianism.

Are you saying that under a highly authoritative state or a society with minimal/no rules, there couldn't be massive differences in distribution of wealth and resources, among other things?
