      That’s because libertarianism, by and large, supports privilege and white supremacy. It’s always all about MY freedoms, which lockdowns impact but police violence does not. Scratch a libertarian, and all too often you will find a fascist underneath the veneer.https://twitter.com/B1Coyle/status/1332942452840402947 …

      Libertarians are so vocal about the lockdowns to the point where people think we are COVID denialists. Yet that same energy was not given by libertarians for the largest anti police movement in modern American history. Too many libertarians have ass backwards priorities as it is.

      And male supremacy. I'm not seeing libertarians get on a soapbox to defend women's bodily autonomy.

      That’s actually an excellent point. Libertarians give lip service to reproductive freedom (e.g., the Libertarian Party platform is strongly pro-choice), but in practice libertarians either do nothing on that front to promote it or even side with the anti-abortion movement.

          You’re painting with an awfully wide brush there. ALL Libertarians either “do nothing” or are pro-life themselves? Also, apparently it’s not ok to just be pro choice. You have to promote it, or you’re really not. Perhaps you’re missing our stance on force?

          Kinda like Democrats give lip service to any kind of freedom at all.🙄

          1/ That's because a)there are even bigger abuses of liberty that demand our attention-the empire, the drug war, domestic spying, etc. and b)and I say this as a vehemently pro-choice libertarian-abortion is complicated. A philosophy built on the sanctity of the individual

          2/ breaks down where the individual begins. I and many others in my camp decided that the mother's right to control her actual life outweighs the fetus' right to potential for life, but given that (as far as I know-feel free to correct me) we don't have a clear answer on where

          3/ life begins, erring on the side of caution is a good faith belief. I'll fight someone on it in terms of law and policy, but I can't be mad at them with the same level of venom that gets thrown around on all sides of that debate.
