    Default The limits of libertarianism

    https://www.spiked-online.com/2022/0...ibertarianism/

    "Libertarians tend to enjoy theory, but flounder when it comes to addressing the actual needs of people."
    "Yet rather than defend grassroots capitalism, libertarians have been prominent in defending monopoly power, opposing any effort to employ anti-trust laws on companies with market shares of 80 to 90 per cent, all in the name of defending ‘free enterprise’."

    Yes precisely. This is why right-wing libertarianism is at best utopian and unrealistic, at worst downright malicious and destructive.

    Libertarianism/an-capism is a Reddit ideology which doesn’t have much applicability in the real world, they often mirror communists on the left with their Utopianism (no true capitalism) etc. Though I sympathise with some libertarian policies
