Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

Is there another kind?
Yes, and we call ourselves Anarchists or left libertarians because the right specifically and intentionally stole that term
Exactly this. And even when I do use the term libertarian. I make sure to express little l versus Big L Libertarianism explicitly. Big L Libertarianism is simply a noun randomly applied to something. And doesn't mean anything more than the people in charge want it to mean. Like big C Communism versus little c communism. Totally different things.
Hell the man who coined the term and defined libertarianism. Explicitly fought against most of the type who profess to be big L Libertarians today.
and we support not voting and the system collapses, so republicans get elected
Wait.
That's simply not true. I'm not a large, and therefore don't pretend to live in a system I don't. This is the system that I live in, and I have to do everything possible to reduce harm to others, which includes voting. Maybe try educating yourself?
Used to be. Now the only halfway decent libertarians label themselves anarchists.
Yeah. All jokes aside but USian Libertarians are different to, for example, European Libertarians.
Being “socially liberal” has different parameters outside the US.
