The far-left isn't just content with potentially unjustly categorizing Republicans as violent, Libertarians are also in the crosshairs...
John Brennan issues list of ideologies Biden intel community should go after-

I've always generally thought of Libertarians as republicans who wanted to smoke pot and get laid.
The milder ones often are, but there's a more consistently principled group too. I'm certainly not into pot (hell, I drink caffeine an average of under once a week and alcohol less than once per month). I don't use nicotine at all, though my fiance likes to vape enough that I easily could and still get laid. And of course I'm an atheist which most Republicans aren't. And trans. And against speed limits. And not exactly pro cop. And into metal music. And against military intervention.
@SpikeTalon The line is what I thought was a pretty well known old joke. My impression of libertarians were that they were conservatives who didn't buy into the religious aspects of the republican party.
John Brennan is free to make any suggestions he likes. He's a private citizen, who used to work for the government. Just because he has his opinions doesn't mean anyone in government is going to act on them now.
Btw, to use as source material an article by "Tyler Durdin", doesn't really lend a whole lot of credibility.
@SpikeTalon The post was in my feed.
I wonder if they will be looking into the Anarcho-Libertarians as well as the Far Right Libertarians?
I know many people who describe themselves as Libertarian, including myself. I never heard any of them suggest violence.
Posted by SpikeTalonI kneel before no one. No gods, no masters, no control freaks. Screw the tyrants from both political extremes, and their agendas.
Posted by SpikeTalonNeither one of the extremes, and yet the best of both worlds...
Posted by SpikeTalonSubstitute the word liberals for progressives, and that would describe me as well. As for the conservative part, the socially/theocratic (aka, bible thumpers, mostly) ones in particular.
Posted by SpikeTalonIndividuality is a dirty word to the authoritarians (both left and right) in the world.

Posted by MagnetarRocksI don't know about you, but I've been doing Libertarian victory laps over the last few weeks.
