This is a gross mischaracterization.

Pretty much everybody I've met who's espoused libertarian principles ends up being this shitty.

Perhaps you should consider widening your contacts, then? You clearly have a broad-brush and aren't afraid to use it.

Plenty wide set of contacts as is. And based on what I've studied of libertarianism (I used be quite right wing before I grew up) and libertarians I know and interacted with, I am pretty confident that my portrayal of the ideology and most adherents is accurate.

Libertarianism is the strange belief that rich motherfuckers  will be nice if they think that no one is watching them.

Drumpf ain't going to like this.

The Drumpfster doesn't handle it well when brown people nail his ass.

Perhaps in Ireland. You're wrong about its expression here in America, and I personally don't appreciate you slurring me based on your own limited experience.

You can cling to your notions all you wish, but that doesn't make them correct.
