I think the article makes the point that nobody really cares about Libertarians. We're willing to cooperate with them where they prove useful, and to use them when they prove unhelpful, but at the end of the day they are loud-mouthed far out of proportion to their actual social-political power. Few people get excited about the idea of draining our government to the point that it can't actually do anything. Moderates want safer streets and better schools. Leftists want more welfare. Nationalists want a stronger military.

...that sums up like 85% of the country. Those three voting blocks are often able to reach an agreement without Libertarians, who prattle on about big government.

Seems like more of an attempt to divide. I lean libertarian, and even I can see the need to dominate the world in order to keep the muslims at bay. The democrats have made it clear that they want Muslims to invade the planet and I'll side with Republican Nationalists ......NeoCons may as well be democrats and I think they are. The world is a fucked up place.....I'd even like to send the military to the UK, Sweden and France to bring some liberation freedom bombs to their muslim loving "leadership." Lots of shit needs blown up before we can go back to being less active overseas.

Yeah, but most libertarians don't sound anything like you. Most libertarians are effectively blue-pilled.

Hoppean Libertarians are the future my goats. Civic Nationalism still has a place in the heart of the American libertarian, they just give no quarter to the crony beauraucratic bullshit that modern government has worked itself into. Most Libertarians are borderline minarchists and borderline bootlicker when they finally cut through the edgelording cognitive dissonance.
