This is entirely correct if you define "white supremacist" to be "not Rooseveltist-DeLongist-Steinbaumist". Which was always the point, really. If you don't support a particular all-encompassing authoritarian project to destroy the moon, you're a filthy moon-supremacist.https://twitter.com/glenweyl/status/1079847465715679234 …

also tbf many, perhaps even most, US "libertarians" ... aren't, much. people like Nozick who endorsed reparations and took heat for it or the many who didn't do the convenient 180 on gun rights when it was the Black Panthers asserting theirs aren't quite the same category

The Rooseveltist-fascist wing of the prog movement is really heavily invested in the Nancy Maclean fanfic where libertarians are slavish followers of Buchanan (most never heard of him) who was a huge racist (he wasn't).

The immediate goal is to marginalize libertarians, the longer-term goal is to marginalize public choice theory. It's demented, malicious and fact-free.

The Rooseveltists are locked into a rhetorical position where every single policy they prefer is needed to address racism, and every policy they oppose is both objectively and ideologically racist. Again, demented and hilariously counterhistorical.
