      An incomplete list:

      Leftism

      • structural racism/sexism/etc. exists and is a serious problem that needs to be addressed
      • police as a concept needs to be completely rethought
      • we should tax the rich and give to the poor
      • free healthcare, maybe UBI even
      • The U.S. needs to stop interfering in the political systems of other countries

      Libertarianism:

      • Privacy should be a human right
      • The DMCA is a disaster, DRM is evil, and copyright terms are way too long

          Fair enough. So maybe I’m only 4% libertarian :)

          My gut response when those things are challenged is “but muh freedom!” so it certainly feels libertarian.

          Also, the left-of-liberal party in my country (NDP) disagrees with me on these matters.
