    A libertarian is just a conservative that likes weed. You can ask their girlfriends after they pick them up from middle school.

      I wouldn’t say that actual libertarians are conservatives (I know some in europe), but a lot of conservatives in the us larp as libertarians because that was the original vision of the us freedom fighters and they also on some level think they are libertarians because they think libertarians are smart (because the avrg libertarian is way smarter than the avrg conservative) but your joke still works because conservatives and libertarians are both pedos

        Bro, the moment that “abolishing the age of consent” is brought up, you need to know that they aren’t acting in good faith. Every argument they bring forth should be tainted by that shit!

          yeah, but I know some libertarians and the reason most of them don’t like the age of consent is, that a child is basically the parents property in our current system, and I (especially with trans rights in mind) can see their point, parents shouldn’t be able to ruin a child’s life just because they fucked without condom

          that being said a lot of libertarians are pedos

            You have a greater community of people who (theoretically) look out for one another beyond strict family association.

            In my experience, the kids who successfully come out and find their way into the broader LGBTQ community are the ones who have family or friends in that community to guide them.

            But in practice, your parents make a lot of decisions because you lack the information, the resources, or the social contentions to do them on your own.

            Fucking without a condom isn’t what gives parents dominion over their kids.
