Remember when Elon claimed to be a libertarian before literally joining the establishment Republicans? Libertarianism isn’t real. “Libertarians” bend the knee to conservatives and fascists so quickly it doesn’t matter what the ideology supposedly says. It doesn’t matter that you didn’t “say” anything about fascism. If you can’t connect these two things, that is simply a failure in critical thinking.
I’m the one saying Libertarianism has been sold to Americans under the brand of Conservatism.
… and it’s important to point out (particularly to young people) that these two philosophies don’t mesh.
You’re free to say “No! All you conservative voters are actually fascists and you’re evil and stupid and need to stay away from men!” - and continue to see whether that shaming moralism of young men starts winning them over. You’re free to persist with declaring everything right wing fascist.
After the last election some might suggest it’s not winning votes.
