I should have added this to my reply to you, but the fact that you are even asking these questions shows that you never really "got" libertarianism. It's why you no longer are a libertarian. You still think that libertarianism is a third path -- as in, there's the way Democrats want to govern, there's the way Republicans want to govern, and then there's the way Libertarians want to govern. And they all have their systems and only one is the best!

But libertarianism isn't a "system". It never was, but you're still caught in the statist mindset.

You're still trying to debate me. As I said, I'm not trying to educate you. You were a libertarian for years? Congrats. You obviously didn't understand basic moral principles, basic economic principles, nor how communities enforce rules in the absence of government. You seem to believe that libertarians think that we could solve all our problems through free markets. But we aren't utopians. Shitty people will be shitty people, whether you have a government or not. But when you do have a government, you create a power structure that allows shitty people to commit heinous, generations-long atrocities.

You still seem to believe that laws prevent bad behavior, and that we need a government to keep kids from being brainwashed into taking puberty blockers. News flash, kiddo -- we have a government now, and they aren't exactly working for our children's best interest.

I'm not going to address every single circumstance of how a free society might deal with any particular issue. Libertarians don't propose a one-size-fits-all solution. That's kinda the point. We just get the government out of the way so that we can try multiple solutions and see which one works best.

If you can't imagine how a free society would limit child abuse, then that is a failure of your imagination and your creativity, not a failure of libertarianism.
