    libertarians have neither

    I would say that an ideology based on non-violence, choice and responsibility, with those being impossible to delegate, is exactly about having a heart and a brain at least potentially, unlike the rest

    Lol what. That’s not what libertarianism means in practice. In the real world it’s always “I don’t want to pay for other people, even if that means defunding the fire department so my house burns down”.

      No, in the real world nothing is always what you’d want to claim.

          …what?

          Rephrasing for the slower types - you’re not an authority on what libertarianism is in the real world. I have my own experience to judge by.

          Also have you read “a libertarian walks into a bear”?

          No, I don’t even know what it is and I suspect nothing of value was lost.

              Ah. I’ve read of a legal process describing a real life attempt at anarcho-communism, ended with a few murders and the bosses of the settlement doing drugs trade.

              So maybe it’s not at all about political ideologies, just about lacking people of proper qualifications in their experiment.
