The difference might not mean much to an Irishman, since I don't think libertarianism is a thing there, but it makes more sense in America.
We have a share of them. For example the now defunct Desocrats went that way for about ten years. But the system is very good at weeding out political notions actively dangerous to society over here. Hence why fascism never got going in the 30s despite some decently good prospects (Eoin O'Duffy being an idiot helped too).
Well, outside of becoming a haven for the RCC, anyway. Also, Desocrats? I spent a couple minutes on Google and Wikipedia before figuring out: is he talking about the Progressive Democrats who were apparently run by a guy named Desmond O'Malley? If you were, I must say: realising your party completely shit the bed on that whole economic boom and choosing to disband is honestly a level of integrity that's almost unheard of in American politics. Round here, you just keep peddling the same failed ideas and hope nobody notices they completely fucked them over the last time around. Also, did they have the same sort of throbbing hard-on Biker has for guns?
