Libertarians over the time I've watched them seem more interested in being a "good ol' boy" clique than a political force wanting to articulate policy that gets them elected and puts butts in chairs to bring that policy in effect. You would have better luck at that herding cats. That's in the best of years.
These haven't been the best of years for the LP. The LP of New Hampshire in particular, but echoed in general have impressed me as the stoner section in the bleachers at a QAnon rally. No crackpot conspiracy theory is too insane to contemplate. And to top it all off, a "peace, amicable National Divorce" seems like the best plan to them. And if it isn't so peaceful after all, most Libertarians smile with a twinkle in their eyes with glee at the thought of finally putting their guns to use in an orgy of civil violence with the fig leaf of, "Well, we didn't initiate it, but by God we can settle it!"
I follow @/josheakle. He is, as best as I can see by my values, the Libertarian I'd vote for. I appreciate @/larrysharpe and @/realspikecohen. But those voices seem lost in a sea of "too crazy to be Republican, scary even for MAGA, QAnon is real folk who are more than happy to burn the entire US to the ground. And they get cranky when I ask what the hell is NAP about giggling at the thought of massive civil unrest just to have former President Clown Shoes dictator over red states again. What the greater part of Libertarians seem to advocate for is a dictatorship of might makes right, and somehow their support of the Leopards Eating Faces Party will work out just fine for them.
I find current Libertarians horribly authoritarian and not too worried about personal liberty, or even seriously concerned about policies worth voting for or getting butts in chairs. They really don't want me participating in their little club. I make too much noise questioning too much.
