    The libertarian flag is yellow and black. The anarchist flag is black and red.

    The implication is that a libertarian only looks like an anarchist by proximity. As soon as they’re left to their own devices, they’re revealed to be Christian Nationalists (the black symbol on white robes is used by the Klan.)

        Very badly rendered swastika flag. You can kinda sorta see the black pixels at the center making up the crooked cross.

      I thought black and gold was the ancap flag, not libertarian.

    Most ancaps/right-libertarians are often just right-authoritarians that like drugs, addicted to loli-hentai (although this one is falling out of fashion due to “nofap” reasons), weirdly “free speech extremists”, etc. Exceptions may apply.

      I think labeling is so fucking stupid. Like I get that it’s easier to shove a label on people and yourself, but we’re seriously assigning an entire fucking socio-political economic identity to this kid from like 2 Goodreads reviews and a few Facebook posts?

      Gimme a fucking break

        They might be referring to anon’s flag in the greentext?

    Yellow/Black is the flag of anarcho-capitalism.

  Base on what I’ve read about this kid: I probably wouldn’t like him as a person. I probably wouldn’t agree with a lot of the things he believes, if not vehemently oppose them. I don’t think he’s a genius – in fact I think he’s probably a similar kind of an edgy, dumb kid I was at that age.

  Sometimes “good” people do bad things, and sometimes “bad” people do good things. It’s almost as if real people aren’t one dimensional caricatures.
