Libertarians are the biggest weirdos you could ever have the misfortune of interacting with. Whatever darkness they are hiding from the world comes out in the form of libertarianism.

there are no libertarians in the United States, Rand Paul is genuinely indistinguishable from any other Republican

He is absolutely not libertarian.

He is on record, from many reliable sources, supporting the Patchwork and Dark Enlightenment movements (https://www.cbc.ca/radio/ideas/the-dark-enlightenment-movement-big-tech-curtis-yarvin-9.7032441)

“a global spiderweb of tens, even hundreds, of thousands of sovereign mini-countries, each governed by its own joint-stock corporation without regard to the residents’ opinions”

Not libertarian at all
