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.)
Leszek KarlikBest summed up by the famous Twitter quote of "During my research I interviewed a guy who said he was a libertarian until he did MDMA and realized that other people have feelings, and that was pretty much the best summary of libertarianism I've ever heard" (by @hilaryagro@twitter )
Simson Garfinkel@Leszek_Karlik @cstross The amazing thing about both The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged is that that science, politics, and economics all align to show the superiority of Libertarianism over all other forms of moral philosophy and economics.
Of course, both of those books are works of fiction.
