Who brought them up? Did I miss something?
The common ground between libts and the left is significant, as long as the US Gov pursues Empire and resorts to repression at home in support of its imperial machinations. There is also the traditional agreement on civil liberties and personal freedom, including - for some libertarians – reproductive rights. I suspect the libt’s anti-war arguments work a lot better on the average person than the left’s turgid discourse on imperialism.
Yup, and we could do worse than to steal their line that imperialism abroad means the end of democracy at home. It has appeal, and it’s true.
