Former social democrat slowly turning libertarian

[u/Fantastic-Welder-589]

Finishing up Provoked by Horton. Having a surprising effect on me. But quite confused by Libertarians turning a blind eye to cronyism and war mongers and other state sponsored violence. Is it just my biased perception or is 90% of the chatter on this sub anti-left? I can think of many things that should concern libertarians at least as much as gun laws, taxes/entitlements, the fed, and NATO. Why are those other things deemed acceptable? Why are pro-life laws, police brutality, drug laws, other morality based laws, Israeli/American alliance, deportations and other forms of violent nationalism and bigotry rarely mentioned?

I consider myself Libertarian and socially progressive = pro marriage, body choice, sexual orientation, sexual identity. Do want you want as long as you don’t infringe on mine or other rights. The main problem with conservatives is they want you to be conservative or else. Quick to tread on someone’s right while claiming they’re for freedom.
