Unfortunately that’s ironically correct. Neo-libertarians funded and propped up by stolen capitalist trust funds. Have effectively stolen the term from the group it actually represents.
I would never refer to myself as just ”libertarian" for instance. Despite aligning pretty closely with the actual ideology. I tend to prefix it as left libertarian. Or if there’s a right wing dumbass present, true libertarian. Because they truly are all posers. And it’s fun to see their faces contorted.
If you support the libertarian party, you ain’t really a libertarian. That’s like a vegan eating steak for dinner every night. If you spend all your time whining about the government imposing on your “freedoms”. But can’t even offer feint criticism of the ultra wealthy and the much more devastating effect they have on society. You’re not really a libertarian. But sadly for most people, that’s who they associate most with being libertarian.
