When she’s not busy fantasizing about libertarian crypto-based UBI schemes or propping up the patriarchy, she’s writing wearying odes to transhumanism and longtermism. Truly the voice of a generation.

@swlabr If by ‘recent’ you mean ‘since the foundation of the Libertarian Party’. Libertarians were all-in for Reagan, their poster boy Ron Paul caucused with the GOP, etc etc etc.
Yes that’s more or less what I meant. I am not a pro historian or anything but libertarianism pre-dates the libertarian party. My understanding is that the origins of libertarianism only bear a passing resemblance to the modern formulation.
(If it is sounding like I am defending libertarianism just fucking kill me)
Rothbard deliberately and consciously stole the term from anarchists for his new right-wing version, anarchocapitalism.
