There are far more peaceful people trying to have a needed societal conversation demonstrating than agitators/rioters taking advantage to get free stuff or wage their class war. Don’t let the latter silence the former cause you can’t appreciate nuance. #amliberty

Asking one institution to guarantee too much will only guarantee that when that institution fails you will be without too much. #amliberty https://t.co/DExg1BUHr5

When the day comes that big government rolls back not cause it wants but because it must, the well off that remain will survive while everyone else is left holding the bag when no alternatives exist cause there was no market to offer them one. #amliberty #libertarian

Government largess in the long run doesn’t hurt the rich but the poor. When the time comes that government buckles under its own weight, the poor will suffer when they realize being dependent on one institution in so many ways exposed them to so much risk. #amliberty

In 2020 governments spent what they had left, whether you think it was wise or unwise, it was done. Going forward we’ll need solutions and thinking that can exist within these new constraints, only Libertarians are offering this, vote wisely. #amliberty #libertarian

Acknowledging the flaws in society shouldn’t be a call to controlling others but bettering ourselves to inspire others and improve our individual spheres of society. If we all can choose to be better for our own sake, we will all by virtue be collectively better. #amliberty

You want Justice you need to remove the barriers to opportunity that prevent those who need it most to rise up. Monetary Policy, Regulations, Taxes, overcriminalization all hurt the powerless the most cause they have the least resources to overcome these barriers. #amliberty

I’m starting to feel that people think if someone is intolerant of their opinion they’re intolerant of them as a person. Try changing the subject to music, movies, tv, the stuff we actually all do to enjoy our lives and you’ll find that is often not the case. #amliberty https://t.co/QvYzjWKNT0

Free Markets, Free Travel, Free Minds all matter greatly to me. Although, I’m convinced that to fix how we treat each other at a societal level (violence, theft, compulsion) we need to fix how we treat each other on the individual level (empathy). #amliberty #libertarian

I want you to love who you want, be who you want, buy what you want, sell what you want, use the medium of exchange of your choosing, travel where you choose, and just live your life. I just ask you do it without hurting others or taking their stuff. #Libertarian #amliberty

Some may say I’m too idealistic in my expectation of people voluntarily being more kind, forgiving, tolerant, peaceful and empathetic despite their differences. I’m not asking for perfection, just continued improvement. #amliberty

What Libertarians are saying is “We all have a diverse set of societal critiques how about we each try to test solutions in our communities and see what people choose as the best solutions, and learn from those that don’t succeed” #libertarian #amliberty

Reason why Libertarians feel like everyone sounds the same sometimes is because what many people are saying is “I have a reasonable social critique, that is enough for me to demand imposing my desired solutions on everyone”. #Libertarian #amliberty
