How do we feel about libertarians?
They're just Republicans with a bong.
Who have an issue with age of consent laws
That's all Republicans.
Not quite. Republicans require the child's parents consent prior to the rape occurring.
Not from what I've seen. They're not so big on consent in general.
I see it as, they're willing to consent for others.
Dressing provactively? They consent to you being raped.
Your body, my choice. I shall consent for you m'lady.
I suppose another way of looking at is they see women as property. Probably why the trans thing gets them all upset, their worldview means a trans female becomes their property and in their twisted minds, that's them being forced to take possession of something. Their imagined agency is being attacked.

Love this.
They're at best misled on the subject of capitalism and at worst just another band of toadies for the fascists
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
Libertarian as in anarchist or libertarian as in "the age of consent should be lower"?
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.
its because they're not, anarchists are the grown up version of libertarians.
Libertarians discovered anarchism and were like "we have that at home!" and they really didn't.
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
