It's amazing how libertarians have declined. I am in the same circles with some self described small government libertarians and inevitably when I try to use their supposed commitments to point out, say, censorship through banning social media platforms or beating up people for expressing their views on campus, they never agree that the governent is too big or going too far.

It is completely personal, government should let me be a tyrant over my kids because they're mine, my speech is important because it's mine. That sort of thing. Genuinely depressing to try arguing with.
