Libertarians are political cowards, that hide behind a meaningless word to avoid taking a stance on any pollical issue.

So yesterday I was working at a guy's Mansion in Boca Raton, he was in the process of moving and downsizing. I noticed his study had a computer screen with stock tickers. So as we were leaving after the job, I asked him what's a good stock tip? He said right now he would go with NVIDIA, he said that their AI chips are going to revolutionize automation and video capabilities. I said you know, that's where AI shines. It can pick a rotten strawberry out of thousands of strawberries tumbling down a conveyor belt. But it does not do a good job at doing human practical thinking, for that I call it "Another Idiot". He laughed and said he hadn't heard that one before. I said AI chat is really just a series of weighted responses, there's no real cognitive abilities there. They have to go in and periodically adjust the data and fudge the weights on the responses to mitigate wrong speak to keep it on a Left tilted message.
He then says, "Oh you're one of those" I asked "you don't think or know they are transparently intentionally coddling AI to stay on a Left message?"
"I'm one of those? that has critical thinking skills, then yes."

He said "Well I'm a Libertarian!" before going back inside, and leaving us to make our exit.

I have noticed every Libertarian, that I talked to, throws out that their a Libertarian when cornered into a political argument that they know they can't win on their pollical knowledge alone. They wield it like some immunity potion, that shields them from having to go outside of their comfort zone or avoid having to be red pilled.

I mean they are on the Left and they are the Right, these are people who never take a stand. I still don't know what in the fuck "Libertarian" is. Other than the idea that the Government should be functioning or not quite so much so, according to their ideal quota of Government control. It's a broad brush, while saying nothing.

Bullcrap! Go to Wiki and read the definition. It's so convoluted and all encompassing, it's like Woke. They say they are the superior political moral highroad, therefore they are and everyone else is wrong. Both Democrat and Conservative Libertarian philosophy easily blend into Socialist and Woke mentality.
But like with most political ideals, the people who subscribe to those beliefs don't realize that those beliefs don't mean what they think they mean.

It's a huge blanket to throw up in political discussion when they are in over their heads, they just cop out by saying they are Libertarian, while trying to skirt away from taking a stance on the Right vs Left debate. The media has everyone convinced that admitting you're Conservative or a Republican, is somehow bad, and an embarrassment to admit. So they think Libertarian sounds safe, without actually taking a stance on anything.
And now that many Democrats feel they have been duped by the Wokesters, they will just rebrand themselves as Libertarians, without having to reflect too hard on the error of their ways. They will vote for Joe Biden, while calling themselves Libertarian.

"I believe in smaller government." Well guess what? I don't know one single Republican that wouldn't be for cutting every Agency and 90% of the Social service government sector. So it's not unique to "Libertarian".

The DC Gulag is full of Patriots, who believe the same thing, they don't call themselves Libertarians.

Libertarianism is a defined ideology. Just that most of its self-identifying proponents don't know it and just use bits and parts to justify their own bullshit.

Well that's not what the Libertarian.org says at all. .

Here's some highlights.

1)Libertarians envision a pluralist, cosmopolitan society united by commerce and travel, not divided by nationalistic antagonisms.
(hmmm Orange man Bad!)

2) They envision a world where people are free to experiment with different ways of living, free to try new ideas that might just be crazy enough to work. A world driven by the entrepreneurial spirit that is always asking questions like “How could this be better?” and “Can I make something entirely new?” Such a society may have a patchwork messiness about it, but it would also be vibrant and humane.
(Sounds like all of the makings of a SJW, "The way you're living is shit, my way is much better. Let me fix your centuries old institutions for you!
Or better yet we want electric cars but we can't have them as long as you are enjoying your cheap affordable transportation, eat the fucking EV Dick motherfucker!)

3)Then they go on to trash Governments around the world and confusing people's bad choices in elections for "Government". Do they mean to say that it would be impossible to elect a lying scumbag Libertarian? They represent the whole RINO wing of the Republican party.

Then they finish with this jewel. " When people cooperate with one another peacefully, with respect for each other’s rights and liberties, we are capable of incredible things. "

They are bitching about other people's political leanings and beliefs as the major tenant of Liberalism, but then go on claim moral high ground, and talk about respect and cooperation with your fellow man. Libertarians are anything but Cooperative. They take their but hurt marbles and burn the mother fucker down when they don't get their way. All of the other bubble gum words in the description, is exactly what every party thrives to be.

Furthermore any Republican that does not advocate minimal state intervention and free markets, and the private lives of citizens, is a God Damn RINO bitchass fuckboy. The GOP is full of them. At least 150 of them just voted to extend FISA they all call themselves "Libertarians".

They do not need you to vote for a third party. Dominion, et al, will transfer enough votes from Trump to a third party to lower Trump totals enough for a Biden steal.
