yep

2018-09-13 01:31:16 UTC  

I would call myself a libertarian, just not a party libertarian

2018-09-13 01:31:28 UTC  

They *had* a chance for a breakout in NM this cycle. But the Republicans are too arrogant to let them take the chance.

2018-09-13 01:31:37 UTC  

It's a real disappointment.

2018-09-13 01:31:39 UTC  

when Tim says big L he means the party

2018-09-13 01:31:46 UTC  

Yup

2018-09-13 01:32:04 UTC  

I often have to explain to people that not all Libertarians are libertarian

2018-09-13 01:32:11 UTC  

yep

2018-09-13 01:32:12 UTC  

Kinda like how you have RINOs

2018-09-13 01:32:24 UTC  

I was personally hoping the Libertarians took a senate seat under Johnson. But it looks like their splitting the vote with the REpublicans.

lol

2018-09-13 01:32:43 UTC  

Lago seems to have become a bit of a prankster.

2018-09-13 01:32:48 UTC  

>Johnson
I wish they had found a candidate who wasn't a stoner

2018-09-13 01:32:55 UTC  

dogass got mad

2018-09-13 01:32:56 UTC  

lel

2018-09-13 01:33:03 UTC  

He was a popular Republican governor.

2018-09-13 01:33:06 UTC  

dont @ everyone

I wouldn't knock him.

2018-09-13 01:33:13 UTC  

"What's an Aleppo?" killed the Libertarian Party.

2018-09-13 01:33:18 UTC  

/\

2018-09-13 01:33:31 UTC  

Open Borders killed the Libertarian Party for me.

2018-09-13 01:33:35 UTC  

Bake the gay cake said the "libertarian"

2018-09-13 01:33:38 UTC  

I don't know. I think "Trump versus Clinton" killed the Libertarian party.

2018-09-13 01:33:55 UTC  

That, and watching one Libertarian, the chairman of one district, berating other libertarians for being christian.

2018-09-13 01:33:59 UTC  

The real issue with the Libertarians is that they are stuck in a perpetual purity spiral to see how extreme a position they can take.

2018-09-13 01:34:12 UTC  

It's the dumbest group I've ever seen

2018-09-13 01:34:21 UTC  

Libertarians tend to fucking suck on foreign policy in general. I'm watching Rubin's interview with Peter Thiel right now and he brings that up as why he voted for Trump over Rand in the primaries, and over Johnson in the general.

2018-09-13 01:34:22 UTC  

yea

2018-09-13 01:34:23 UTC  

I could see that.

2018-09-13 01:34:28 UTC  

And precisely the issue I have with all these "classical liberals" and "libertarians" around here.

2018-09-13 01:34:38 UTC  

the AnCaps man

2018-09-13 01:34:42 UTC  

Libertarianism should be about principle, not ideology.

2018-09-13 01:34:54 UTC  

It's less "to be more extreme" and more being incapable of setting a limit to the principle

2018-09-13 01:34:55 UTC  

I don't think it matters if you can't organize.

2018-09-13 01:35:01 UTC  

Libertarian is best described as a direction instead of a destination.

2018-09-13 01:35:24 UTC  

It's like this social media thing. If you simply stand on principle as you get progressively silenced, does it really matter?

2018-09-13 01:35:35 UTC  

Because if you take the idea to the extreme you get ridiculous scenarios like recreational McNukes.

2018-09-13 01:35:36 UTC  

they would do great if not for the purity spiraling

2018-09-13 01:35:37 UTC  

You never get to push your ideals.
