We are a libertarian sub, about libertarianism.

We do not owe you a platform to push anti-libertarian ideologies. You can comment but not post articles, because there are bad-faith posters who want to post horrible content just to get people in trouble.

Rule 0: Serial downvoters who downvote out of hate and don't interact with the community will be banned.

πŸƒπŸŒ» Rule 1: Kindly be empathetic and kind to others. Trolling and spamming will not be tolerated. Making the community a friendly & supportive place is our goal.

All of us are here for a short lifetime. Let’s have a nice time here and avoid negativity. :)

Ah.

Painfully obviously, some significant part of DOGE's actions were intended to hamstring investigators and agencies that were troublesome for Musk's shady business dealings, so now they've extended that out to include other shady businesses that will also presumably now be spared the expense of actually ensuring that their products and practices are safe or effective or legal, and counted the expense they'll be spared as if it'll be an actual benefit to anyone other than the c-suite and maybe the stockholders (and in spite of the likelihood that dealing with the conseqiences of their perfidy will actually entail greater costs for the rest of society).

And at this point I'm too cynical to even be mildly surprised.
