Oh man, that's insidious stuff. Can you imagine what would happen if the tea party assimilated that 0.5% of the electorate comprised by libertarians? They'd be unstoppable! It's pretty strange that you, as a libertarian, have infinitely more vitriol for people who have some libertarianish values than you do for people who haven't a libertarian bone in their bodies. Even stranger when the latter control all the levers of power and the former control none. |
But yea it is possible I could hate someone who could be a diehard libertarian if I think they are nothing more than a fake and a liar. I have more respect for someone who is a diehard socialist than a two-faced libertarian. At least one of them has respect for themselves. Which is why I don't like the tea party people because personally I don't think they take my political ideologies all that serious.
