The flip side to being a libertarian is that you still support legislation to e.g. breakup monopolies and protect 'basic' rights, as needed. A sibling comment mentions Trump - he went so far in the opposite direction there is a considerable backlash to seeing what a truly regulated and unprotected environment looks like... Trump it can be argued went so far to break basic things like US mail, and encourage corporate monopoly, the course correction in the other direction is not only reasonable but expected...turns out divisive (fascist) wannabe dictators are not a good recipe for freedom either...
