You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
I can never tell what level of seriousness Tumblr libertarians are operating at
A libertarian is a person who believes that no one has the right, under any circumstances, to initiate force against another human being, or to advocate or delegate its initiation. Those who act consistently with this principle are libertarians, whether they realize it or not. Those who fail to act consistently with it are not libertarians, regardless of what they may claim.
There is little to me more amusing than the idea that there is entire, multi-act play, that essentially consists of those two people standing around and talking like that the entire time.
French Restoration-era sex comedies. Angela Carter's take on "Puss-in-Boots" is an homage to them.

On the one hand it's hilarious they actually exist.
On the other hand, part of what made The Lusty Argonian Maid so funny was the implication that the author thought it was actually hot.

The problem is that most people who call themselves "libertarians" are either right-wing libertarians or, more often than not, just economic conservatives who want to sound more enlightened, when really the first self-identified libertarians were socialists.

I mean, those plays do have people emerging from bedrooms with ruffled clothes and various other intrigues, but yes, most of the dialogue is innuendo or double entendre. Hell, think what language that last expression is from!
I don't understand why libertarians try to make themselves seem so cool and hip when it's such an old white dude party.
I mean look at this guy
look at him
The ironic thing is that most of the founders of the Libertarian Party started out as energetic, idealistic young intellectuals. But it seems that they were the first and the last great influx of young blood.
i get the impression that at this point the actual meaning of 'libertarian' (and similarly 'liberal') is entirely contextually-dependent and doesn't denote any specific ideology
the difficult thing here is the whole "suit that fits" bit
it should fit fairly close to perfectly when you buy it, and then you take it in for tailoring, the cost for which you should keep in mind when buying the suit.

Well, if someone explicitly refers to themselves as a "left-libertarian" or "libertarian socialist," it does tend to mean something specific, but that's partly because it's not as commonly used as an appellation; the same goes for talking about "classical liberalism," which is itself the precursor to right-libertarianism. A "civil libertarian" also has a fairly obvious definition, but that definition is tied only to one aspect of a person's politics. "Libertarian" itself, on the other hand, really does have an extremely diffuse set of connotations and denotations.
like a "I really would like to punch this individual" type of way.
Is he a reference to Thank You, Masked Man?
Also, I'm not 100% sure that you can make claims to absolute punchability without having read the last third of Homestuck. I mean, Cronus Ampora. My gods.
