Don't even go there. Bernie Sanders isn't the leader for some cooly fringe ideology, he is the leader of an ideology that is the most effective and best working in the world right now and that every developed country has adopted. It's the best ideology humanity has right now. The most practical and the most humane. Libertarianism is next to impossible to even implement, democratic Socialism and social democracy are the ideologies of the greatest nations on Earth right now. In times of crises, even Americans are beginning to understand that. Capitalism is old and outdated and didn't work for most humans. Bernie cares about humanity, not profits for a few, which is what capitalism is about. I'd even say capitalism as in the US is a dying ideology while Bernie's ideology is becoming the mainstream in every nation as the best ideology. Comparing libertarianism to democratic socialism is like comparing scientology to Islam in terms of popularity.

Yep. Sure does feel like a bizarro libertarian response from 2008.

Except it doesn't. Go travel the world and learn what fringe means. Your explanation of libertarianism was decent until you mentioned Bernie and democratic socialism. Then it turned to random nonsense. Go ask the developed world how fringe democratic socialism or social democracy are. The US is the fringe one in wealthy countries with it's chrony capitalism.
