(11,481 posts)on any issue. I know what I mean by opposition and that's what counts. And I have so little in common with libertarians, most of whom are anarcho-capitalists, that I couldn't conceive of a situation where I'd actually support any sort of libertarian candidate for any office. I personally have seen (and have said this before) their agenda as a fraud. They claim freedom for people in personal issues and for capitalism in the big issues. But just like any libertarian that gets elected to anything, they support the capitalists NOW in their oppression, while claiming that the personal libertarian issues are "next". And that "next" never comes.
However, if a libertarian claims to be in favor of legalization of marijuana or claims to be against foreign adventurism, or claims to be against the NSA, I'm NOT going to stand up and say he or she is wrong on those issues just because they are being brought up by a libertarian. IOW, I'm NOT going to change MY positions because some moron of a libertarian is like some stopped clock and is right those two times a day.
