I’m really confused that the libertarian seems to be differing from the Democrats in the meme when Mamdani won the primary and is endorsed by the Democrats. I’m not doubting there are people who typically vote blue who wouldn’t like him (and some might not even vote because of it, or prefer Cuomo), but they certainly don’t fit the stereotypes of the characters on the left in this meme.
This is just “It’s too late democrats, I’ve depicted you as the foolish soyjak and the libertarians as the noble chad.”
libertarianism is about how the government should f off (appealing if you’re already rich)
fascism is about how all power should be vested in a single person who leads everyone towards the will of the nation (appealing if you’re stupid and a bit of a romantic)
admittedly today’s “libertarians” are often in name only
I don’t have to agree with everything Mamdani says to realize that the establishment Democrat party is incapable of standing up to this administration. Hence the whole political pluralism thing.
The Swastika predates Nazi Germany as a symbol for many years, but if you post a flag with a Swastika on it, people are going to assume you mean a Nazi. Once a symbol gets adopted and popularized with a group, it gets associated with that group, regardless of prior meaning.
You use (and say you like) the symbols of a specific political party but then defend yourself saying that you mean the ideology as a whole (and a huge “no true Scotsman”) while criticizing a different specific political party. Maybe don’t use those symbols if you wanna make your point better.
It tries to communicate that libertarians aren’t fascists. Which is incorrect.

Today I learned that voting for a democratic socialist is fascist.
But how is that in any way compatible with libertarianism?
I presume not “libertarian” in the old sense of anarchism. Even that doesn’t particularly like electoral politics at all.

Libertarians are overwhelmingly siding with republicans. Doesn’t that mean anything?
Uh no. Does the USSR mean anything when talking to an anarchist?
Trans rights are human rights Free Palestine. Abolish ICE.
That any clearer for you?
I’m really confused how someone who values human rights would vote libertarian.
libertarians literally don’t want social support to be a thing, how are they even close to a demsoc
Americans don’t know what words mean that’s why
No, but it’s also not American Libertarian
Correct. I’m an actual libertarian. Not a classical liberal.
then you probably shouldn’t use the American Libertarian flag for your meme
That flag predates American libertarians and even America itself

Nobody but the truly ignorant are going to think you’re a Nazi for flying this, and it’s borderline racist to suggest otherwise
Nah. I like it.

Nah. I like it.
You sound like people that fly confederate flags but say “It’s heritage, not hate.”
