- aj7 6y agoSo libertarians support laws making legal subtle force and fraud, ca. carried interest, private prisons, private ownership of everything, with no commons.
- vidarh 6y agoLibertarianism started on the far left, explicitly opposed to private property, largely overlapping with anarchism. Modern US-style right-wing libertarianism basically cribbed most of it but added a property right fetish. (Dejaque, the founder of libertarianism called Proudhon, the founder of anarchism, a "moderate anarchist, liberal, but not libertarian")
