@eunews if you try saying the US should be abolished so each state would be autonomous he'd call you an anti-american radical leftist

Actually I don't think so. That's literally what the r right wing libertarians more or less want, a completely castrated federal government. What is exactly what project 2025 is about.
What DOGE was about.
Because again dealing with the individual states, especially if they have to compete against each other, it's way easier.

If memory serves, at least for some libertarians the end game are city states governed by corporations. With that pesky democracy thing gone for good, replaced by the rule of money, or as they like to put it, genius.
Ignoring that being rich is in our system seldom correlated with even being clever.

It's a mix of them.
Call it an unholy coalition. That can agree on a small intersection set, and sometimes that can lead to odd meetings when an anti-Semite supporter meets a Jewish supporter and they start to discuss if Jews should be exterminated.
But yes the current breed of (US) fascists carry a number of libertarian ideas with them, even if their whole program was such might be incompatible.
@reiddragon
Let me be more precise, the libertarians would probably prefer to do away with the whole federal government at least in practical means.
The Trump regime is delivering the dismantling of the administrative state while at the same time even building up the repressive state power (his whole personal hooligans, well funded ICE).
