Yea....and? This isn't what I believe in. Nor is it what Libertarians believe in.
These people aren't Libertarians - they are Anarchists. Libertarians believe that the government has an important role to play in society. A very small role, but a role nonetheless.

Wikipedia says they're libertarians.
So it must be true. ;D

They're Socialist Libertarians, aka Anarchists.
Just because they claim to be part of the group doesn't mean that they are.
Mormons claim to be Christians but clearly aren't....

Just like the NSDAP added the word "socialist" to attract a broader range of supporters and also to compete with the real socialists who, by the mid 1920's, had vast influence in the Reichstag. And just like Vladimir Zherinovsky heads the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia, they're not liberal and his ideals are definitely not democratic. |

Kinda reminds me of my favorite country in the world - the Democratic People's Republic of Congo. A country that is neither democratic, nor of the people nor a republic. |
