Sorry, pede, the days of libertarian relevance have ended. I say this as a former libertarian myself, who still carries the values but realized the tactics are outdated. It simply doesn’t work when you share a society with groups that will not agree to grant you the same freedoms you grant them.

You end up disagreeing with people while you defend to the death their right to free speech, only to have them turn around and censor you. And now they’re the only ones with free speech, and they use it to make the world less free.

As strange as it sounds, we have to be less libertarian in order to have a freer world.
