There’s a thread of libertarianism that is closer to authoritarianism i.e. freedom for me, but not for thee
And I think that turns people off
Also the problem of negative externalities leaves a bad taste in the mouth
At the end of the day people also have the free will as individuals to coordinate as a collective in a common goal. Seems contradictory as a libertarian to be against people’s freedom to do that
I think for the libertarian movement to be successful they should discard the mountain man fantasy and instead focus on attacking big government in favour of smaller government
Luckily Bitcoin is the perfect tool for this and allows non-libertarians to coalesce around a libertarian goal
