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.
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?
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.
Left libertarianism was first… But nowadays it only exists to “well actually” people with, at least in the US.
