I am beyond sick and tired of both left and right wing people using “Libertarian” to refer to lunatics from the American GOP who decided to co-op and abuse the term.

Libertarianism per se has nothing to do with capitalism per se. You can have libertarianism with or without capitalism and vice-versa, at least in principle (in practice, of course, some implementations are going to be more challenging than others to design and/or implement).

Bad faith appropriation and inversion of leftist terms is a core tenet of the right.

“War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.”

Anarchism

Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules:

  1. Be respectful
  2. Don’t be a nazi
  3. Argue about the point and not the person
  4. This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.
