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.
