Stephen Miller Caught Lying About Libertarianism!

by | Oct 25, 2022

“The Libertarian party is for hard drugs, unlimited immigration, prostitution, radical secularism, no jail for predators, anarchy on the streets. (IOW, identical to the Democrat Party). So if you like those things vote Libertarian or vote Democrat—because they are one in the same.” – Stephen Miller

Hard drugs? Republicans assisted Big Pharma, the most deadly pushers on planet earth after Trump appointed Fauci, printed trillions, and implemented Operation Warp Speed before telling his followers to get vaccinated. We only oppose caging people for using drugs, which does not mean we are “for” it, any more than supporting free speech means you endorse everything everyone has ever said.

Radical secularism? Libertarians practice Thou Shalt Not Steal and Thou Shalt Not Murder. Republicans support the ft when called taxation and murder when called foreign policy.

No jail for predators? We support jailing all those who initiate fraud or violence, Trump however was friends with child rapist and trafficker Ghislane Maxwell and wished her “well” after her arrest*. Have Republicans called for jailing the Saudis for their mass murder campaign in Yemen? Or the Ukrainian regime’s civilian murders in eastern Ukraine since 2014? How about U.S. politicians who lie under oath or start wars based on lies?

Identical to the Democrats? Do the Democrats support abolishing taxation, regulation, the Federal Reserve, welfare, government schools, corporate subsidies, occupational licensing, civil asset forfeiture, the CIA, FBI, NSA, DEA, and the FDA?

Notice Republicans like Miller support all these things.

Chaos in the streets? Republicans support the government monopolizing police services which guarantee we all get higher prices and worse quality, libertarians support free market security competition (alarms, guns, knives, brick walls, locks, private security guards, etc.). Nothing is more chaotic than the governments which have given us world wars and wars on “terrorism” with tens of millions dead – that’s the system Miller supports. Same police who punished Kyle Rittenhouse and the McCloskey family for defending themselves and had a massive which hunt for January 6th attendees while seldom punishing Antifa or BLM for months of indiscriminate rioting.

To convey such a blatantly false version of reality is to lie.

Private property isn’t about selfishness so much as it’s about creative control. Someone might want to have their own business, not because they’re greedy, but because they have a vision of how they want things to go that won’t be realized if everyone else gets a say...
