right wing libertarianism is not really anarchy, it is feudalism, the company town, warlords that are defacto governments. An example of left wing libertarianism is most indigenous societies. It is also known as libertarian socialism.
Noam Chomsky is thought to be a left wing libertarian.

Everyone is against irresponsible gun, dog, etc ownership. The bigotry part is the dog whistle in some of your cartoons. Most of them depict rural or working class people in a very negative light. Those people pick up on that and the Republicans play the self loathing elitists.
What you define as excessive, I define as so what.
