Thinks libertarians are left-wing b/c they don't want to persecute brown people. Could somebody show our AG a map of the political spectrum?pic.twitter.com/GF7JpahH3f

Libertarians have been left wing for some time. They're just more nihilist than the average Leftist.
-

Just because one believe in "open borders" does not necessarily mean one is left leaning and vice verse.
