Reminds me of the old joke “what’s the difference between libertarians and republicans? Libertarians know the legal age of consent in all 50 states”
This trope and this meme are lame and wrong. You people have a ridiculous idea about Libertarians that is nothing but plain prejudice.
I encourage anyone to prove me wrong by reading this Libertarian Party Platform document. Please point out anything about age of consent that is included in the Libertarian platform.
Additionally, prove me wrong by showing any example of a Libertarian party member stating support for adults abusing children in the manner alluded to in this prejudiced meme / trope.
EDIT: Downvotes don’t prove anything folks. I issued a challenge here - is nobody going to prove me wrong?
Heh. Somebody got offended by a joke
No I am offended by the prejudice behind the joke. It’s as bad as Trumptards and Qanon morons calling Democrats pedos.
Probably not a great idea to alienate the Independent type voters ahead of important elections as well. Democrats / Leftists / whatever you are should be courting the votes of those who are not-Republicans rather than driving more division.
I can’t imagine willingly telling people I was a libertarian in the internet.
Can you imagine being content in life and not caring what Internet nerds think about anything? No? Too bad for you. That’s my reality.
Liberty is the most important value/concept to uphold in society and politics, therefore the Libertarian party is the best overall choice to support. Anyone who proposes to reduce liberty for the citizens of America automatically loses my support.
My ethics are clear and I’m proud of my voting record, no matter what you or anyone else thinks. Proudly supporting freedom should be applauded rather than mocked. So it’s actually you who should be ashamed for attempting to suppress our freedom with your prejudiced garbage.
I brought this up yesterday, and I’m not even a libertarian. I just have working eyes and those muscles between them run decent enough too. The ideology of libertarianism is so harmful to the corporations that run this country that it had to be astroturfed into the thought terminator cliche of “libertarian = pedo” amongst an entire new generation. They destroyed Occupy WallSt in a different but similar way, by infiltrating all the influential OWS groups and making identity politics a core tenant (if you’re white, shut up because your opinions are worthless - thought terminator cliche so ‘in your face obvious’ that they’re promoting exactly what they’re supposedly fighting against, but most were taken in anyway) - here’s a video of it in action from 2011.

The corporations that run this country love youth internet addiction. There’s never been an easier time in history to spread or destroy a movement simply by spending money. You don’t even need a puppet. It’s the ultimate power.
Wow I didn’t realize that happened with OWS. I just remember being disappointed that the movement fizzled out.
Divide and conquer is a well-known strategy, used endlessly by the brainwashers
WHOOOOOOOOSH
Buddy, the definition of libertarian differs greatly from what your ilk discusses online.
Absolute bullshit. You are making up your own prejudiced definition, even after I provided a link to the party platform that LITERALLY defines the political stance.
In other words, you can’t prove me wrong, so you move the goalposts.
There’s one more group that would make this argument……
Liberals in a worker shortage
What fantasy world are you living in? So dumb…
Red states. What part of that isn’t clear?
You’re replying to a hexbear user. When they use the label “Liberals” it includes the folks you immediately think of but it also includes conservatives., as in economic liberalism.
no, I mean mean US democrat liberals and the link I provided shows that child labor restrictions are being loosened in both red and blue states
Yes they’re all liberals. That’s what I said. The guy was like ‘where blue states I thought you said libral’ and so I had to clarify that in this context the word applies to both not just blue.

~This dude don’t know bout liberals~
Ah yes, red states like Minnesota and New Jersey. 🤡
Any legislator can introduce a bill, so “blue” and “red” don’t really indicate much. You have to look at who is sponsoring the bill. In Minnesota, that is Republicans and it’s going nowhere. In New Jersey, that’s Democrats and it got into law.
Libertarians are like liberty to cherry pick lucrative bits of capitalism but same level of kick the ladder fuck you I got mine as regular Republicans.
What libertarian said what to make you think that?
I think government only works when it has the power to militarily dominate any competing force.
I’ll take Yikes! for 100, Alex
Like Hasan said “It’s all liberalism at the end of the day”
Who actually hates themselves enough to watch Hasan Piker? Not only is he an idiot, but he’s also cringe beyond hope
Not that I’m outright disagreeing with you, but in what way is he an idiot? He went to Rutgers and has been a pundit for a decade. He knows his shit when it comes to history as well.
He’s been essentially lying and scamming young gullible people for personal gain. He rants and supports a failed murderous ideology that he doesn’t even believe in while also being a hotspot for misinformation. His hypocrisy and lack of ethics make him a vile person.
Well there’s also Hasan Minhaj but I don’t think he said that.
Much like Obomba taught us, that part in the middle of the meme that looks like says 12 year old is pronounced “Military age male”.
Ah yes, the Drone King, first liberal saint of Genocide.
first liberal saint of Genocide.
Thought that was Churchill
Nah, that’s their first pope
Fuck, marry, kill: Degen edition
Libertarians
Fascists
The IDF
…“Someone shot an RPG at us from the upper top window of the building across the road, requesting air support, over…” …“They’re setting up another RPG, over…” …“Ah never mind, it’s a minor. We’ll just hope he continues to miss us”
Some of you guys have really warped definitions of libertarianism…
Yeah, libertarians acknowledge that 12 year olds are children, they just also want to fuck children.
Can you link to a libertarian saying that?
Nathan Larson was a libertarian- no need to spin up narratives when it sets itself up, nice try though.
Found the libertarian.
I mean, if libertarians didn’t openly discuss the age of consent and the differences between pedophilia and ephebephilia, maybe people wouldn’t think they’re all a bunch of pedos.
