So much for “small government”
Libertarians are just fascists with nonce aesthetics.
Fascism is a bullshit ideology that only cares about the supremacy of the fascists themselves. Outside of that it has no real principles, only whatever ad hoc opinions will further their supremacy at the given moment. When someone is not amplifying their fascinating they will whine about much freeze peach, when protests challenge their grasp on power they will use every coercive measure of the state to repress it.
This is not true though.
Fascism only sounds incoherent if you take it at face value, but it is integral to protecting and preserving the liberal capitalist order during times of crises. Italy and Nazi Germany served the role of crushing left wing and working class movements in post-WWI Europe following the success of the Bolshevik Revolution. Fascism saved “international capital” in Europe from falling into the hands of the “Leninists”, and continued to do so well into the 21st century.
I don’t take fringe ideologies (like national bolshevism, lol) seriously because they fall apart at the slightest scrutiny under materialist thinking, but fascism - fascism is well grounded in reality and should be taken extremely seriously by everyone who considers themselves on the left. There is a reason why fascism as an ideology historically succeeded while many others never even got off the ground.
Clara Mattei’s The Capital Order is essential reading to understanding how liberalism invented fascism to preserve private property ownership and wage relations during the turbulent years following WWI, and provided compelling arguments, using contemporary political and economic records, to show that both liberalism and fascism are two sides of the same coin whose functions synergistically protect the capital order.
The causal mechanism for the libertarian to fascist movement is idealism. Libertarianism is a completely idealist rules based worldview that only bears tangential relation to reality. It somehow creates a peaceful and morally justified hierarchy for a given body politic. Because it is a hierarchical worldview the only people who would willingly adopt it are those who preceive themselves as benefiting from the system, aka being securely on top already or would be on top if the system were adopted. When they gain power and the world doesn’t conform to their idealized view that must mean that someone broke the rules, cheated, and therefore those malefactors fall outside the Civil body politic. Because ypu now have an external enemy you are now justified in using any method necessary to defeat and reestablish the “rules based order.” This is how you can get a cognitive dissonance free genuine movement from libertarian to fascists
I will go to my grave cursing Rothbard for this
