    Ok, I had my suspicions, but now I know what has you confused: you’re confusing the ideology liberalism with the libertarianism - authoritarianism axis of the political compass.

    I know it’s confusing, especially since fascists who like drugs have appropriated the label “libertarian” in the US, but come on.

    You had the option to not say anything before you knew enough to back up your enormous confidence with actual knowledge of how to correctly define words and ideologies.

    Instead you just blundered full speed ahead with your eyes closed while tossing grenades all around you like when Trump confuses political asylum with arcane mental institutions and concludes that crazy people are invading the country.
