I posted something in GD yesterday
I hadn't had a chance to check back (generally nobody replies to my posts)

When I checked, I have already been told several times that I do not know what I am talking about, that I am authoritarian, am calling for concentration and education camps, and more.

Isn't there some kind of award that I qualify for???

:rofl:

2. I am not compalining about it, just
amused that my threads usually die a rapid death no matter how contraversial.

I realize that there are people here who don't know how interpret metaphors or satire.

6. I just looked at that thread
Most people don't think of Libertarianism as a left wing ideology. I think "Neil Boortz" when I think "Libertarian." I know about Libertarian Socialism aka Left Libertarianism, but it's a very uncommon world view here in the states, so when someone says, "Libertarian," I automatically think of it as a right wing ideology unless they specify some other definition. I think some people jumped the gun in that thread by not asking you what form of Libertarianism you were refering to, and instead took offense.

10. Unfortunately, it is all too prevelant
just go to the CATO Inst., et al.

My concern is that they are pulling in people from the "left" with the idea that they are for liberty, blah, blah, blah. They are for Liberty as long as it works for them - everything else is secondary.

Teabaggers are a perfect example: no taxes, not now, mot ever.
