I started using nostr today, and the first thing I search after typing libertarian is this, lol. But this hits deep, it's totally true, even as a self critique and critique of the "movement" is that it's funny how the movement centered around individuality doesn't seem to have individuality or originality at all.

And the thing about it is that the ideological passion doesn't seem to be great enough that we actually see people breaking through their respective fields, atleast the marxists actually want to make the revolution and end up actually occupying all these fields, I'm leaving out a lot of variables like the fact that leftism isn't an organic movement, but still, libertarian types in theory should produce passionate people focused on their own thing that turn out to be libertarian after you look into them.

And it's very different from how leftists act, since they have mainstream pillars, when they say stuff like "capitalism bad", they're just repeating what a good chunk of the population already accepts. But when a libertarian says his view, it turns into a chore since it's so obviously anti mainstream, so now you turn into a proselytist, the time you spend explaining theory after saying "capitalism is not bad" the marxist/leftist just mutes the post after saying "capitalism is bad" and goes make his art or whatever the fuck that actually wins a culture war.
