Well, then argue with the opening post. You haven't made a single comment that addressed why I question the cognitive ability of libertarians if the support DeSantis's policies.Not told. Mainly what I've read... and I'm merely responding to the question in your forum topic..
Does this mean that you have no argument against the apparent fact that Republicans and libertarians are both seeking totalitarian control, actively and visibly, of social values and opinions?There's no argument man.
and have you now, or ever in the past, condoned, supported, or in any way aided the communist party?Does this mean that you have no argument against the apparent fact that Republicans and libertarians are both seeking totalitarian control, actively and visibly, of social values and opinions?
Me: why do libertarians support republicans?There's no argument man.
because they share a lot of disturbing, repulsive, just down right fucking evil goals...Me: why do libertarians support republicans?
You: I've always understood their commonality is in doing away with government involvement in big business and trimming down social security.
Me: You haven't made a single comment that addressed why I question the cognitive ability of libertarians if they support DeSantis's policies.
You: There's no argument man.
Yes there is. DeSantis is expanding government control and expanding Florida State's control of what can or can not be said in schools, not just public schools but private ones too. DeSantis is moving hard toward more regulations, larger government and attacking the LGBTQ community. Republicans are strongly supporting DeSantis.
Which is why I question the cognitive ability of any libertarian that supports Republicans. Why would they?

You misunderstood me. I think. I stated that I have no argument with you. If I'm understanding correctly.Me: why do libertarians support republicans?

Yes there is. DeSantis is expanding government by taking control of the Reedy Creek Improvement District*, expanding Florida State's control of what can or can not be said in schools, not just public schools but private ones too. DeSantis is moving hard toward more regulations, larger government and attacking the LGBTQ community. Republicans are strongly supporting DeSantis.
*The governing jurisdiction and special taxing district for the land of Walt Disney World Resort

I guess we aren't on the same antidote. It isn't that i misunderstood you. It's that I don't understand.You misunderstood me. I think. I stated that I have no argument with you. If I'm understanding correctly.
Well then I have a completely different understanding. I was stating that both republicans and libertarians want the government out of their business, and have an agenda to kill social security. I also know that the creators of south park are libertarians, that's about as much as I get into politics. I am certain republicans want govt out of big business and if that isn't true then I've been reading a lot of horseshit for the past 20 years, which I don't believe is the truth. Not enough to even argue it.I guess we aren't on the same antidote. It isn't that i misunderstood you. It's that I don't understand.
My bad. I don't understand where you are coming from when you said this:
I've always understood their commonality is in doing away with government involvement in big business and trimming down social security.
When clearly that isn't what Republicans are doing.
???
You've been reading a whole lot of horse shit,.Well then I have a completely different understanding. I was tstating tha both republicans and libertarians want the government out of their business, and have an agenda to kill social security.

I could be reading it wrong. If not, he seems to be saying (let’s stick with Republicans) seek to minimize government interference in the way businesses operate, which includes taxation, employing domestically, worker and product safety standards, antipollution regulations including carbon control, putting the brakes on ecocide e. g. fisheries, et cetera.…
Lobbyists from big corporations WRITE some of the bills that Republican Congressmen submit. When they aren't writing it, they are suggesting changes to benefit their big corporate clients. Who do you think is behind Republican efforts to fight bills addressing climate change? Ever hear of Exxon?
I'm not so sure Disney deserves much sympathy. They've been making some pretty confusing campaign contributions for a few years now.I could be reading it wrong.

If that is so, I don’t think it is all that divergent. It would help to see response to my question a few posts back. (He has posted rightie alt-sense before.)
Where it gets interesting is that this small-government principle disappears when the megacorporation, here Disney, blasphemes against Republican Morality. Then it’s take over, divide et impera.
What that says to me is that the “libertarian” ethos Republicans like to use in campaigns is completely subordinate to advancing the party’s agenda of cultural demonization and demolition. Which means that under the libertarian glove we once again find the iron fist of authoritarianism.
Let’s see if he speaks to my question that Roger so neatly put into perspective.
I did not intend sympathy. My main point is that the libertarian veneer flakes right off today’s GQP when a corporation commits cultural heresy.I'm not so sure Disney deserves much sympathy. They've been making some pretty confusing campaign contributions for a few years now.

they donate to both parties, but it seems like they make more, and larger donations to republicans than they do to democrats.
after learning this, i feel less like desantis is persecuting them for not agreeing with him, and more like he's treating a bought dog like a dog...
i didn't realize they had a veneer...they seem pretty transparently fascist, and have for quite a while. does it matter what color you paint a scorpion? they're still going to sting you every time they get a chance.I did not intend sympathy.
