Libertarianism is basically a fundamentalist version of liberalism. It's essentially "liberalism has gotten too complicated and the complexity is producing errors; here are the most important bits and they're what Really Matter", which is what fundamentalism is.
- yarrel 13y agoIt's a fundamentalist version of economic liberalism certainly, but not of political liberalism in the sense of vaguely leftist centrism.
- saraid216 13y agoPolitical liberalism is and always has been nonsense. It's a propaganda label and is as meaningful as having a Libertarian Party with a platform half the libertarians in the country disagree (all of whom contend that those who do agree aren't True libertarians).
