The reason the left had infuence for years was because the right was dominated by both tradcons and the corrupt dipshits who catered to them, effectively disenfranchising libertarian right leaning individuals, and unless those with culturally libertarian values can reassert themselves over these people including the tradcon leaning paleocons, legitimate opposition to the regressive left will die out.
While I agree we should ban and restrict media that's legitimately questionable, we need to take measures to preserve artistic and media freedom to stop the regressive left from poaching ideological allies and persuading them to join a terrorist ideology just so they can consume media that's merely offensive and not legitimately questionable, which fyi is a known lie regressive leftists are likely using to luer people.
Yes, I support soically conservative policies like restricting abortion and extramarital relations, but I just want apolitical media to be fully protected while persecuting regressive leftist bullshit.
As long as we give people a low barrier and wide access to weapons, preserve free speech, and not restrict media because it's offensive rather than legitimately questionable, we can do whatever the fuck we want to our enemies.
I am just trying to get my point across in an accurate manner that we can all agree upon.
No, I said it IS.
I'm gonna spell this out for you again:
Libertarianism as an ideology gives ZERO FUCKS about the community. It is an ideology that is 100% focused on the individual's exercise of liberty, in accord with John Stuart Mill's harm principle:
"The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others."
-John Stuart Mill
The community is a non-entity. Mill only cares about harm against one individual by another individual, either through will or negligence. It is an ideology that inherently ACCEPTS the tragedy of the commons. The distributed, theoretical harm to many through the commons is NOT harm.
Abortion is a thorny issue in a Mill framework because harm could go both ways. But pretty much everything else social conservatives get irritated about (gay marriage particularly) is perfectly kosher under Mill's harm principle.
Precisely why it's not a viable ideology. Because it refuses to address the fact that moral decay and normalized depravity is actively harmful not merely to society but to individuals as well.
