I would say that an ideology based on non-violence, choice and responsibility, with those being impossible to delegate, is exactly about having a heart and a brain at least potentially, unlike the rest.
In any case people who, I think, could be interested in dating me (maybe they were so strongly hinting at something else, but being autistic and very shy and lacking willpower, I'll never know) were of all kinds of political views. Some of those were even glad to hear about the libertarian kind of opinions. But importantly that wasn't the subject of our interactions.
So don't mix that American normalized intolerance with how women feel generally, please. Women are, ahem, as diverse as men.
Lol what. That's not what libertarianism means in practice. In the real world it's always "I don't want to pay for other people, even if that means defunding the fire department so my house burns down".
No, in the real world nothing is always what you'd want to claim.
...what?
Also have you read "a libertarian walks into a bear"?
Rephrasing for the slower types - you're not an authority on what libertarianism is in the real world. I have my own experience to judge by.
No, I don't even know what it is and I suspect nothing of value was lost.
It's a book describing a real life attempt at libertarianism.
Ah. I've read of a legal process describing a real life attempt at anarcho-communism, ended with a few murders and the bosses of the settlement doing drugs trade.
So maybe it's not at all about political ideologies, just about lacking people of proper qualifications in their experiment.
