Not OP but gonna explain a bit about it nonetheless:
Other than the US use (generally meaning anarcho-capitalist, selfishly ignorant or both), libertarian is just the opposite pole of the “how much do we let people control us” axis from authoritarian.
So basically a left-libertarian (which is a big spectrum of different political philosophies) is broadly speaking someone who doesn’t believe in inherent authority but DOES believe in rules and various degrees of enforcement to defend the powerless from the powerful.
No. Liberalism is a center-right to right wing ideology that’s inherently capitalistic and permissive towards business. If Rupert Murdoch was still in Australia, he’d be supporting the Liberal Party.
Libertarian is liberal right on that compass.
Only the ahistorical and deliberately misleading US definition.
I guess you could say that, in the sense that the government (if any. See below)would be much more of a helper and a support for regular people who aren’t rich and powerful than a ruler and an enforcer working for those that are.
What about roads and utilities?
Paid for and maintained by the people in general, specifics vary wildly across the hundreds of millions of left-libertarians worldwide. Personally, I believe that financing and administrating such thing is quintessential supportive government stuff. An anarchist would disagree with me, opposing all government or at least all except very local government.
What really turns me off of libertarian is the belief that people have to pay for their own roads and fireman. The rich will only survive then, kind of like how our healthcare is right now.
Yeah, right-libertarianism is basically “survival of the already most privileged” dressed up (with varying degrees of success) in misleading rhetoric about self-determination…
if you’re saying that the government is ran more like a co-op, then I get it.
Ideally, all organisations would be co-ops and the government would be an administrative non-profit co-op of sorts run by and for those of the people with the most aptitude and uncorrupt interest in doing such work.
That’s just my personal take, though, there’s hundreds if not thousands of left-libertarian ideologies and I don’t agree with all of the specifics of any one of them…
Yeah, this is the top shelf ABOVE the ones they’re selling. Turns out that an appearance of overabundance of an item makes people more likely to buy stuff and this is making that appearance in a less wasteful way than actually making dozens if not hundreds more towels than they could ever sell.
World was already the biggest by far when I first started lurking back in July, and it’s just getting more dominant. Before, there was quite some diversity in the distribution of generic communities, but nowadays the vast majority of posts that reach the top are from over there....
And because Beehaw is the NIMBYest of NIMBY instances, defederating at the drop of a hat. Come to think of it, didn’t they end up defederating from federation itself?

Well a lot of misinformed people think his existence is a good thing but in reality he’s harmful to (amongst other things) the vaginal health of women so yeah, calling him a douche is fitting.
Other way around: check the memes first, read and watch more in debt about the subject matter that warrants it.
If I had found out about Kissinger from the regular news rather than lemmy, I would have had to slog through a hundred articles by idiots and cowards calling him a genius before I got to the correct take from Rolling Stone: https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/cf9fe779-f6f6-4625-b7b3-12206788a1f2.jpeg
You’re basically describing me, except with the genders flipped and depression in stead of bipolar with most tendency towards hypomania, which goes just SWELL with anxiety and becoming fake extrovert when my social anxiety is bad!
Basically can’t make myself shut up for two seconds around people when the hypomania is at its worst and people are always exhausting and stressful to be around too much, even my favourite ones 😮💨😄
Not true! I gained a very frustrating argument with my mom who’s left wing but also old enough to still trust establishment media representations of history WAY too much! Yay!
Very much cherry picking data points here: nitrous oxide has a higher impact by volume, but the output is infinitesimal compared to CO² and other harmful substances involved in the extraction, processing and combustion of fossil to the point that it’s still a TINY problem in comparison.
