I mean, their use of ‘THEN’ rather than ‘THAN’ indicates that they’ll soon adopt the socialist agenda, so there’s still hope!
That fellow clearly just wants to become a heavily radical leftist, so he wants to maximize the jump he makes on the spectrum! Good on him!

Exactly! They’ve got it all planned out!

The core values of libertarianism: (god I wish I saved the original reddit comment, oh well I’ll paraphrase)
“Yes it’s fascist pseudoscience with no basis in reality, however it’s still a useful theory so I’m going to continue to believe it”
Tbh I was confused for a second and then thought. “Oh… Right-wing libertarianism!”
Where do you live that after reading “libertarianism” first thing you think about is left?
Left libertarianism was first… But nowadays it only exists to “well actually” people with, at least in the US.
Yeah. In Poland libertatrianism started around 1980 with a pretty fun episode when Janusz Korwin-Mikke went to the famous opening strike of solidarność in the Gdańsk Shipyard and preached to them the virtues of capitalism and free market. Shocked workers listened to the nonsense, concluded he has to be a militia provocateur (he really wasn’t) and locked him in the shed.
Currently, polish libertarians have such overlap with monarchists and neonazis they are even for years in a single political party - Konfederacja.
it took me a long time to realise that just because it has the word liberty (almost) in it, doesn’t mean it’s a left-wing idea.
This has to be satire, right?
Poe’s law: on the internet, it’s nearly impossible to tell.
This but unironically
I really doubt it. Have you seen reality? I wish the whole thing was satire.
even if this specific example were, the law of large numbers means there’s a very high likelihood that at least one person really holds this attitude.
It says then not than, the person wants to be enlightened
I think you said the unspoken part out loud.

Unless you meant that all conservatists gladly convert to socialist views once confronted with true information.
That one word changes the meaning of the meme drastically. ;)
