    What s load of fucking nonsense. It wasn’t extraterritorial, it was Croatian land. They evicted a bunch of anarchist squatters. A bunch of sovereign citizens who thought they were above the law got spanked.

            Most of the libertarians I know, and I know a bunch, are right wing extremist anarchists. Libertarianism aligns far more closely with socialism than it does with either capitalism or communism but it’s been co-opted by extreme right plutocrats to disrupt society for their own authoritarian ends.

              Right-wing Anarchy is an oxymoron. They claim to be anarchists because Anarchy is cool, but they’re just liberal LARPers.

              One gratifying aspect of our rise to some prominence is that, for the first time in my memory, we, ‘our side,’ had captured a crucial word from the enemy . . . ‘Libertarians’ . . . had long been simply a polite word for left-wing anarchists, that is for anti-private property anarchists, either of the communist or syndicalist variety. But now we had taken it over…

              The fight over “libertarian” is probably lost at this point (at least in public discourse), but it’ll be a cold day in Hell before I accept their claim on Anarchy.

                Do you think the Koch brothers are closeted liberals? Rand Paul? They’re just pretending to want to pay no taxes, take away all employees rights, implement healthcare and education only for those who can pay for it? Allow the poor to die from easily treatable ailments or from hunger?

                If you think that modern libertarians are closeted liberals you are very out of touch with modern libertarians. Either that or you’re make bad faith arguments to try to derail legitimate criticism.
