That's just the tip of the iceberg.

They often help fascists in the doxxing and smear campaign of more libertarian leftists, as an example.

libertarian leftists? That's an oxymoron.

Oh, here comes the "right is small government, left is big government" conservative!🤣

Nope it's purely an ideological conflict. If you're a libertarian then you don't support government, you believe the free market can work without regulation. Which leaves us with Anarcho-Capitalism. And at that point what amount of social justice or equality or anything are we achieving? It's going to be kind of hard to form a union when Shell Motor Corp troops execute anyone found with a vote card.

Oh sorry, you're the "authoritarianism is when self defense, ergo short tempered dictator with frivolous pet project is good" type of "leftist" (sic)!🤣

That doesn't make sense. Are you saying corporations should be allowed to have soldiers on staff?
