    Sigh, I guess it’s time to provide a Wikipedia link: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-libertarianism … Right libertarian and left libertarian are entirely different things. “Libertarian” is used, usually in a derogatory manner (and rightly so) to mean “right libertarian.” Cato Institute are fuckers.https://twitter.com/CamiloGuezRodri/status/979359416016351233 …

    As much as I agree with you on Mozilla & the rest of the Google/fb/Uber/airbnb/Microsoft, etc., funded privacy advocates like access now & those attending RightsCon for their piece of the pie, I'd like to see you walk in to the Cato Institute and look for your fellow "leftists".

        2. ..left, whether in the form of the state or the political practice of the collective instituting itself as such. Competition as a result of the individual qua main figure, and as social logic, is as far as you can move from left, and as close as you can get to neo-liberalism.

        1. Still agree with you on the obvious - "Cato Institute are fuckers" -, but as philosophy graduate, I have read some of the "left-wing" libertarians and only found an exacerbation of free market capitalism with a human face. The collective is always the main protagonist of the..
