You know that Libertarians DIFFER greatly from the republican party. We’re pro-gay rights, pro-choice, anti-war, we want to decriminalize marijuana, and we want to eliminate programs like the Patriot Act and the TSA that violate our civil liberties.
But you wouldn’t know that since all you buy into are false stereotypes.
The scientist says that the Republican Party has become unwieldy and inefficient — that is, it’s not focused on the small government/pro-corporate message he wants to promote. He sees libertarianism as more focused (i.e., without the social agenda & militarism). So, let me make this clear: libertarianism is being presented as a small-government ALTERNATIVE to the GOP.
I know you’ll find this shocking, but I actually know a lot about libertarianism. It’s quite possible to know a lot about it and still disagree with it.
Unfortunately it just wants to center the dictatorship on the state level. Why? Because too many religious fanatics in the Libertarians. I found them too cold and insulated. Me, my,mine is a terrible Daffy Duck philosophy to the point of self destruction of society. Thatcher’s dismissal of society was for me a fine summation of the aberrant unworkable philosophy and economics.

The whole point of the comic is that libertarians differ from the GOP.
Really? Because I’ve read though this story 3 times and I am not picking up that message.
