MODERATORS
I elaborated on that in the other branch and why, even historically, "libertarian" is MUCH closer to the modern libertarian than the modern socialist. But if the entire argument is "that sounds cooler and we should take it back"... that is a really stupid point.
Americans like to vote Republican. Let's just call the Democrats "Republicans" and be done with it (bonus points for people who get the historical irony of that).
This is factually incorrect.
