A certain Belarusian libertarian, known in narrow circles and who changes nicknames frequently enough that there is no point in remembering them, recently posted a solid article on the subject on Telegraph.
A brief list of the article’s key takes from the author himself (what a clever boy, he took care of everything):
1) There are ethical libertarians and “sausage” libertarians
2) Sausage libertarians are useless or harmful to libertarianism and are prone to drifting toward other political views
3) The opposite of a sausage libertarian is an ethical libertarian
4) An ethical libertarian differs from a sausage one by possessing a libertarian mindset and a libertarian framework
5) Most libertarian activity in attracting new members is focused on attracting sausage libertarians and building a libertarian framework, as well as transferring it to ethical libertarians
6) A libertarian mindset is determined at a young age, and to increase the number of ethical libertarians, one should create it in other people’s children through specific practices.
7) Our enemies deal with the mindsets of other people’s children, while libertarians do not
8) And they should
In other words, the author suggests that we stop denying the insinuations that libertarians supposedly love children and, moreover, have a huge interest specifically in other people’s children—and instead, start confirming these insinuations, but in their own libertarian way. Like: everyone thought that “teaching” was a euphemism for “fucking,” but he actually makes children libertarians.
If, after reading the article, you share its conclusions, I await an influx of libertarians into children’s sports sections and creative studios (well, not state schools, for heaven’s sake), the organization of children’s libertarian hiking trips, the hiring of children for part-time jobs, and other useful practices.
