Somewhere about 20 years ago, my Left/Libertarian self recognized that Libertarians, when they grow up, become Fascists — or, when they have thoughts, Socialists.
Because if you want to prove that you deserve everything and the cheaters stole it from you, you’re a Fascist.
And if you want to make sure that everyone has the institutional-scale equality that Libertarianism espouses, it means redistributing all power proportionately toward those with the fewest resources.
