It's pretty right wing, people claim to be left libertarian, but they're confused at best, dishonest at worst. Usually dishonest. "Left libertarians" want to be able to do whatever they want, and force someone else to pay for any of their bad decisions. That's not libertarian, that's just being an irresponsible child. It's not libertarian unless you would extend the freedoms you want for yourself to the general public as well. And it's sure as hell not libertarian if you want to force people to pay higher taxes so other people can make bad decisions.

@chico9805 how do you figure that? Socialism is the polar opposite of libertarianism.

@goonofhazard2203 I've seen them unironically refer to CNN and MSNBC as "far right".

@Wolfways he's a leftist YouTuber and comedian, he used to work for The Young Turks. He's famously been critical of all the Democrat covid policy, and bashes democrats a lot, so naturally the left calls him a grifter and says he's "not a real leftist", even though he's very much leftist, he's a socialist.

@FazeParticles unfortunately, things don't usually go that way in society. Political trends tend to always go leftward as the nation gains more wealth, until leftism destroys what sensible, conservative policies and attitudes created.

@Dave_Parrott when people complain about media bias though, they mean that it's unfairly biased and dishonest. Think of a sports talk show, if I have a Houston based radio show, I'm obviously going to be biased for the Astros, I'm going to talk about them the most, I'm going to want them to win, because it's the hometown team. But that doesn't mean I have to completely ignore the rest of the league, and it doesn't mean I can't be critical if something isn't going right with the Astros. This is what we would call a fair and honest bias, I'm not trying to hide the fact that I like the Astros, but I'm also not going to bend facts to make it seem like the Astros are better than they actually are, and it doesn't mean I have to bash every other team.

@eliaspanayi3465 no matter what scale you use, whatever you call the modern left is as far away from libertarian as you can get. They're more authoritarian than Nazis and communists.

It's hilarious to ask a leftist what they think far right actually means. I've never gotten a coherent answer. Leftists are defective.

There aren't, anyone who claims the media is unbiased is just a liar. Leftists are stupid, but they're not as stupid as they conveniently claim to be.

@Dave_Parrott I also don't agree with the premise that everything is biased, I understand the concept, and it is true that a person can't completely remove all of their personal biases, even if it's subconscious, but that doesn't mean that it's impossible to give an unbiased analysis or opinion.
