Skeptic first, leftist second, libertarian third.

Confused because he's paying attention.

It's "just a picture. Trump conducted himself courageously, and Vucci got the angle. Admirable, but it has no tendency to show that Trump is divine, the Chosen One, or whatever Jonathan Jones and Ross Douthat now take him to be" reason.com/2024/07/16/t...
The defiant Trump image that made critics join the cultreason.com A single photo of Donald Trump leaving the stage after being shot during an assassination attempt has turned critics into cult-like admirers.

Self-described libertarians have been explaining to me on Facebook how my criticism of a Supreme Court ruling that puts the most powerful government official in the world above the law is proof that I'm no longer a libertarian.

I come to libertarianism from the left of the '60s - and '70s: Free speech, sex positive, legalize drugs, don't be racist, be tolerant of alternate sexualities, etc. plus economic freedom. So folks like the "I'm a libertarian but we have to stop groomers" people just seem deranged.
End of feed.
