In the US, with it's myriad constraints and systemic flaws, I am far more pragmatic.

I always have a good laugh when I see people think that all libertarian thought is a priori RW.

Rand, Rothbard, and the rest of the anarcho capitalist crackpots and cranks on the Right have done a good gaslight job on trying to claim universal ownership of the term and defininitions of its philosophy.

Civil Axis Libertarian 78.2% Societal Axis Very Progressive 77.7% So I am a social, internationalist, libertarian, progressive. I think, if they were still alive, 2 good friends of ours, a higher up in the American Communist Party and his ex-wife would be proud of me. His wife worked for Herbert Philbrick not knowing he worked for the FBI. I don't care whose test this is or who will be reading my scores. I answer to no one.
