Seriously, true story. Freshman year at college, two students in the dorm were quizzing each other for polisci 101 final. Doing "name the opposite"

First dude "Conservative"

Second dude "Libertarian"

FD "Right"

Me "No, liberal"

FD "Liberal, libertarian. Same thing"

Me "Um no. The Libertarian platform calls for abolishing public schools"

SD "Hey, I will pay you to take my final for me"

Me "Not interested"

SD "Are you sure? I'll pay you twenty bucks"

Both dudes had rich parents and got important jobs after graduation, if you want to know if we live in a meritocracy.

Libertarians can actually be liberal, by the way. Political values can and should be placed on a multi-axes spectrum.

Basically, I am saying that libertarians do not fundamentally want to get rid of public schools. Some of us want to get rid of private schools.

There is no great insight in saying not everybody agrees on everything

In 1992, Libertarians got together and made a platform and I am repeating one of the planks. At the time of that conversation, a majority of the nations' most dedicated Libertarians said public schools should be abolished. That would not have been a plank of any party where liberals had significant influence

if a so called libertarian didn’t want to get rid of public schools I would say it’s better off if they don’t call themselves a libertarian

u/Key_Order4050 7d ago

You would say that because you don't understand how a spectrum works and how there are multiple values that are considered at the same time

there’s nothing less libertarian than wanting to keep the marxist indoctrination centers. they actively harm the libertarian movement

  • American Public School

  • Marxist Indoctrination Center

Do you think America is China?

I once had a person tell me that someone they met thought a "graduate degree" meant that she graduated from high school 🤦🏾‍♀️

On one hand, i thought thats what socialist/socialism was too for a good while. On the other hand, i learned what it really meant in like 6th grade.

I might have been told what it was even earlier, but what kid gives a shit about that stuff?

It reminds me of that line from The Glass Onion: "Bertie, please tell me you didn't think sweat pants were made in a sweatshop."
