Likely a bunch of Business Majors. Was never very impressed by them at school.

And many of the smart ones still have trouble connecting X and Y together. You would think a person who is being trained as a US History teacher would have the knowledge that Libertarianism won’t work, but nope.

And what is worse, it seems like Libertarianism turns people meaner. She was nicer as a straight-laced social conservative. Now, she starts arguing when I try and get to the logic of why she supports those ideas, and the Republicans still. I outright told her at one point that supporting the Republican party of today means supporting racism and bigotry, including being anti-Muslim. She then gets offended when I make that insinuation saying she has Muslim friends other then myself.

Granted these days I see politics as war, set pieces and all. And now, I am more numb emotionally, so I am harsher against people nowadays, as it has become near impossible to feel anything.

US-style libertarianism comes down to “I’ve got mine, you can FOAD”. Embracing this view naturally makes people meaner.
