This discussion is just dumb.No, because I'm not identify as something that I'm not.
Why support any political party?I am now Libertarian. That doesn't mean that I won't still vote for Conservatives as I obviously still want DeSantis as our next president, it's just I've always been more of a do whatever you want kind of person just don't try and go taking my rights away,.. so it would be totally hypocritical if I said that I wanted to do away with the rights of the left. As I've been saying for quite some time on here now,.. whatever floats your boat, just don't sink mine. I also want the government to be involved as less as possible.
Changing your pronoun is just a stupid waste of time unless you're in it for the HEY LOOK AT ME IM UNIQUE bullshit
Changing parties is exactly the same as changing your pronoun. It is pointless virtue signaling.Changing a political party isn't like changing your pronoun. I do agree with you about Democrats though.
No political party is going to be omnipotent or get it all right. I am 100% libertarian (small "L" aka classical liberal in that I believe in small, effective NECESSARY government that does what is impossible or impractical for the people to do for themselves and that allows us to function in peace as one nation, indivisible. That means the federal government does ONLY what the Constitution specifically authorizes it to do and leaves the states and the people in them to organize whatever societies they choose to have.I am now Libertarian.

Is it because politicians make the laws, and the two parties want to go in different directions (for the most part)Why support any political party?
I'm not sure where you got the impression that the people I was going to vote for in 2024 would change.
Libertarians were the impetus/origins of the ACLU that has become one of the most subversive/corrupt organizations in the country so far as individual liberty is concerned. But the Libertarians have never denounced that.Foxfyre Why do people seem to have a lot of problems with Libertarians though. It's not like we're Democrats and liberty is literally in the name.
That makes no sense.What?
Not the same thing.
I don't know, all I know is that I have more of Libertarian views than Republican views.
Abortion doesn't count because it's murder and it goes against the as long as you aren't hurting anybody rule that you can feel free to do whatever you want.
well saidThe sad truth is that in the 2024 election either the republican or the democrat will be elected to be the president. That is the reality, and by voting for any other person or by not voting at all, you are leaving that decision for others to make. That president could be making one or more nominations to the Supreme Court during his/her 1st term, so do you care about that? If the democrats gain seats in the Senate enough to end the filibuster and take back the House, are you okay with a democrat that will sign anything they pass? Under such a scenario, they will surely pass legislation to federalize our elections that eliminates voter-id and liberalizes mail-in ballots, so are you okay with that? They might add 4 new justices to the Supreme Court that are more to their liking, are you okay with that too? Do you want a democrat president that will sign all these changes and more? Do you really believe that a republican president would allow these things? Do you really think Trump would be THAT bad?
It seems to me that we have reached the point where clearly the democrats want to make historic, monumental changes that cannot be undone. they would have done so already if it were not for Manchin and Sinema. So, people can sit back and say, well I didn't vote for that. But you also didn't vote against it either.
Both political parties are only interested in maintaining power and not doing what is best for average American citizens.Is it because politicians make the laws, and the two parties want to go in different directions (for the most part)
and it is better to have limited say in the direction than saying - Hey look everybody I want to have no say at all?
Why do people seem to have a lot of problems with Libertarians though. It's not like we're Democrats and liberty is literally in the name.
This alone disqualifies libertarians from EVER getting my support. You want to see the demise of our nation elect libertarians.Foxfyre I thought that Libertarians were all about allowing everybody to live their own lives.
well said
I was saying or attempting to say that
OP probably already knows he will have to vote R... can't see him voting D. But then, I can't figure out anyone voting D

Libertarian perspectives on immigration - Wikipedia
en.m.wikipedia.org
That is what they initially were and to some extent still are. But most Libertarians (capitol L) now would have the government prevent a community from having the traditional creche on the courthouse lawn or disallowing an adult bookstore in the heart of downtown or next to a school or banning alcohol or drugs or prostitution or whatever. In other words many Libertarian views is that liberty means anything goes and nobody should be allowed to restrict that for any reason. And IMO that kind of anarchist mentality is in itself restrictive.Foxfyre I thought that Libertarians were all about allowing everybody to live their own lives.
They approve of open/no borders and ANYONE can come and go as they please.She, but other than that you're one hundred percent correct.
How is illegal immigration not hurting anybody?
So you're just going to ignore the MAJOR damage your newfound party would do to our nation if given the chance?Remodeling Maidiac I asked how it was not hurting anybody not how it was.
