Conservative misconceptions about libertarianism
1. Anarchy and anti-Police and Military.
Libertarianism is not a synonym for anarchy. Under libertarianism, you can still have Courts,Law Enforcement, Military, and more. Larry Elder is a notable pro-police libertarian.
Libertarianism is not anarchy: Being an Anarcho-capitalist sympathizer/Ancap Sympathizer, or My love-hate relationship with Anarcho-capitalists.
This article is an update to my old list Top 16 food for thought articles for Anarcho-Capitalists, with the addition of more commentary, with me talking about things that no other commentator has talked about, at least to my knowledge.
On the same token, being a libertarian doesn’t mean you can’t be tough on crime, for example, preferring Nayib Bukele over MS-13 and Barrio 18.
It’s possible to be a nationalist as a libertarian. Listen to N of 1, “the nationalist case for libertarianism“, and “the libertarian case for nationalism“.

2. Absolute Individualism and Libertinism/Lack of Social Standards.
Freedom of association doesn’t mean that you can’t associate and work with other people, it simply means that you’re free to whose who to associate and work with.
Libertarianism is not Libertinism. It’s totally possible to be Socially Conservative within your own personal life and community. You, your family, friends, and community can pledge to stay away from vices without getting daddy government involved. And it’s also possible to criticize and shame people.
Hans-Hermann Hoppe, who has a cult following among libertarians and is certainly extremely socially conservative himself, has talked exactly about this kind of thing.
Clarifying the "Physical Removal" Concept

I’d actually argue that a market economy would benefit low-time-preference conservative cultures, such as Mormons and Asians (which Thomas Sowell talked about). So the problem of the degenerates breeding will eventually solve itself.

Continued, just because one supports a market economy doesn’t mean that they agree with every decision a corporation or business makes. For example, one can be a libertarian and support right to repair.
Similarly, being a libertarian doesn’t mean that one can’t support good urbanism (or at least walkable cities). For example, Freedom Alternative/Lucian Valsan supports walkable cities and called North American (actually Anglophone) car-dependent cities dystopian, which you know is bad, considering how he survived Ceaușescu’s Romania.
(I mentioned this last part since I’ve been hearing younger right-wingers complain about car dependency. Black Pigeon Speaks has been talking about this since 2016.)

3. Accepting Pedophilia/Hebephilia, Abortion, and Transitioning children.
This one is just fucking absurd. Of course libertarians are against having sex (and pornography) with children and young teens, and against allowing minors to undergo sex changes.
Ryan Dawson has done a better job than literally anyone else when it comes to exposing Jeffrey Epstein and child and human sex trafficking in general.

Dawson has also made a video called "Is Transgender sexist?", along with other videos. Freedom Alternative/Lucian Valsan, Styxhexenhammer666 & Yaron Brook, all atheist libertarians, has criticized transgenderism or things related to transgenderism.
Joe Rogan, an agnostic, has criticized biological men in women’s sports, along with classical liberal ShortFatOtaku & libertarian John Stossel.

Open Borders and Unlimited Immigration.
It’s possible to be a libertarian and oppose open borders and unlimited immigration. A few notable examples are Freedom Alternative/Lucian Valsan, Ryan Dawson, and Styxhexenhammer666.
In 2023/2024, even libertarian New Hampshire supported Texas border security activities (Operation Lone Star), sending 15 New Hampshire National Guard Soldiers and Airmen to Texas.

Nihilism.
Meaning doesn’t come pre-packaged in libertarianism. You’re supposed to bring your own meaning.
Critics Say, "You Libertarians Are Soulless Materialists"
It’s like the job of your doctor is to keep you healthy, which is a different from from finding happiness.
Alternately, this is like buying a flattop AR-pattern rifle and then complaining that it doesn’t have sights.
Do the RINO’s in the Republican Party Represent you? Do Woke Churches Represent Christianity?
Do Republican politicians who vote against raising or creating a minmum age of marriage represent you?
Exactly.

Are you straw-manning because you don’t know your opponents positions?
Or are you trying to justify your sense of superiority over your opponents? Which is the worst sin, as that Pride is the worst sin (and wishing to crush your opponents is Wrath, also a sin).

Very good points, my friend, and I would just like to add the People's Party of Canada, led by Maxime Bernier, a dissident of the Conservative Party. The PPC is relatively libertarian but is strongly against mass migration.
The last issue is that the term "pedophilia" gets thrown around so much these days, much like the term "fascist" to the point where it covers anyone under 25, basically.
Basically, any man these days who wants a lady under age 25 is treated like as such, as if anyone under 25 is just an immature child.
Actual pedophiles are extremely rare and almost unheard of.
