Patreon seems like a very libertarian environment to me. I'm not sure how I could see it any differently.

  A lot of the original libertarians were...socialists. The term today has been rebranded to mean strictly anarcho-capitalists but it originally included anarcho-communists and libertarian socialists.

    Well, I'm using the word as it is used today. That doesn't really address my confusion. Patreon is a world were value produced is both determined and rewarded by a free market of consumers choosing where to spend their money. I do find it ironic that a socialists are at the top of the Patreon food chain and yet the comment: > it's not ironic if you really understand socialism. says I shouldn't. I'm looking for someone to explain to me why.
