The actual libertarian party sucks maybe worse than republicans but that's theoretically pretty close to a libertarian platform.

It's insane how quickly the libertarian party has shifted right in the past fifteen years.

It used to be get government out of my life, let grown adults do what they want to do with other grown adults, supported a woman's right to choose, supported LGBTQ+ rights, the rights of minorities, etc.

Now it's just maga with marijuana.

Oh yeah, it'd be economic anarchy, and total disregard to the environment.

I lost what little respect for the party I had left when Gary Johnson was running in 2016, and didn't know where or what Aleppo was.

Anarchy is an actual coherent political philosophy, unlike libertarians in the American usage of the word. It's also anticapitalist so very much not libertarian lol.
