“#Libertarianism is being attacked because it does not support just reforming a few #government policies. Instead, it presents a formidable intellectual challenge to the entire welfare-warfare #state. The ultimate goal of those pushing for a crackdown on ‘domestic terrorism’ is to make people unwilling to even consider ‘radical’ ideas — to make people so afraid of certain ideas that they refuse to even give those ideas a fair hearing. Progressives who are tempted to support what is being promoted as a crackdown on right-wing violence should consider the history of government harassment of progressive movements and leaders such as Martin Luther King, Jr. What do they think a future right-wing authoritarian would do if given power to go after ‘ideological extremists’?”

Consider yourself intellectually challenged.
