anyone who claims to be "a libertarian" should be forced to watch the libertarian convention which YOU KNOW none of them have ever seen in their lives.

check out the ideas your "party" pushes. real big brain stuff.

there's nothing wrong with freedom, but regulation is necessary. to say otherwise is either ignorance, stupidity, or malice.

I'm a libertarian because the only thing I hate worse than Democrats are MAGA Republicans - And at least unlike Democrats and Republicans, I'm well aware that my party is a joke.

And before you criticize me, I voted Democrat against that orange wannabe dictator THREE FUCKING TIMES, grinding my teeth and swearing as I did so every time, but I still fucking did so, so spare me the lectures.

People like you should work on splitting the republican party.

And after that establish a more fair voting system that isn’t primed to stall at a two party state from the beginning.

Oh trust me, I've been trying to convince any Trump voter who's willing to listen that Trump is a con-man and a wannabe dictator for the last eight years.

It definitely helps that I speak their language - I'm a construction worker and a vet with a mouth that would probably offend many who consider themselves "woke" - but the most common problem I run in to is that even if I can get them to "see the light" and consider that Trump might be a con-man and a wannabe dictator, inevitably they go back to their own right-wing MAGA echo chambers and much of what I say goes out the damn window.
