Is there any flavor of libertarianism that even in theory makes sense? I lump libertarians together which I guess is unfair but I only talk to them online and they always seem to so similar however they define themselves with nuance. I find them to be ridiculous, obnoxious, and selfish.
For example - at Bluesky I just had an argument with a self-described socio-libertarian who was against “disruptive” protests against climate change. The character limit at Bluesky makes an actual discussion pointless in a situation like this. But they were an asshole anyway so that limit did me a favor. And I didn’t need to her some kind of fantastical thinking about the magic of the free market solving climate change.
Here’s what Wikipedia has to say about libertarian socialism…
Libertarian socialism is an anti-authoritarian and anti-capitalist political current that emphasises self-governance and workers’ self-management. It is contrasted from other forms of socialism by its rejection of state ownership and from other forms of libertarianism by its rejection of private property. Broadly defined, it includes schools of both anarchism and Marxism, as well as other tendencies that oppose the state and capitalism.
The concept of right-libertarianism, technically speaking, because this is the self-justifying modern descendant ideology of settler-colonialism, from Amerikkka to Australia, in its infancy…
Think about it, there isn’t much propetarian libertarianism, beyond the New World
Thery are everywhere now due to probably US ideologic hegemony. In fact, i never heard anyone using the term “left-libertarian” outside of anglo internet. All people who would fit that use anarchist or syndycalist or whatever else. And specifically in Poland even in internet anyone who describe themself as “libertarian” you can sure be certain it’s at best austrian cultist and usually just a nazi.
