re: #205 WhatEVs

I voted Libertarian instead of Bush 1. I read and liked the platform. 5 years later I had a blind date with a Libertarian who was completely insufferable. I spent an hour and a half wishing I was home washing my hair. I begged off the movie and left. I lost any concept that I could be a lib after that.

I actually know a good amount of them due to my alma mater. They kind of fascinate me. Some of them are just conservatives in denial but some really do believe in the social liberal stuff but are frankly bonkers on economics. I’m sure they’d say the same about me I guess but I guess what I’m getting at is I find Libertarians amusing because they’re really some of the most overly idealistic people you’ll ever meet. They like to say socialists are the ones who are overly idealistic but IMO the Libers are just like em but except on the other end of the economic coin. They can be insufferable though.
