Charlie StrossRight-libertarians are all sociopaths. No exceptions.
(It's taken me decades to settle on this opinion—I dislike generalizing about groups of people—but there's nothing tentative about it any more.)
toolbear#🪧@cstross former left-libertarian here, can confirm this is essentially correct. Would be fair to describe left-libertarians as having sociopathic lapses if I'm honest.

tl;dr — centrism is bad rn, m'kay
> Can I just be a little left of centre
The way I've come to see it, No.
Graph on the right is what I personally believe to be a more accurate mental model for thinking about the political center's continuing drift rightward.
Ah, yes. There's centrist as in sitting near the centre of the traditional Left-Right, Authoritarian-Libertarian matrix. And then there's Centrist as a political position that floats with the Overton window. And is a term of abuse.
