      Depends on what they focus on. Drug legalization, mass incarceration and government overreach into the lives of the population like with the recent banning of porn? That’s a cool libertarian. If they talk economics at all, that’s just a conservative in dummy clothing

        I feel like no anarchist actually calls themselves a basic libertarian, it’s almost always followed up by socialist or communist.

          Fun fact IIRC; the term was coined by anarchists in France after the word “anarchist” got banned in press.

          I use it when I’m trying to ease people into what anarchism actually means. Also gives me an excuse to shit on right “libertarians” lol
