despite the term’s appropriation by the US far right, “libertarianism” was originally a left wing, anarchist, and communist movement. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarianism

real libertarians sometimes call US far right guys “propertarians” - their philosophy has very little to do with freedom (& tends to be a gateway into authoritarian / fascist sympathies). Anyway, that said, I couldn’t personally care less about reclaiming the term - but it’s sort of a funny chain of ideological custody.
