Given how much Koch-affiliated money floods through the Rand pipeline (including pushing her books in college programs over the years), I can say I'm genuinely surprised.
You stated that you have been pushing to "center social liberalism in the libertarian project." That is quite a task given the value system is, for far too many in that sphere, inverted to your goal. I hope you can make some headway.

@VirginiaMurr@mastodon.social @Popehat@mastodon.social Thank you. And I don't want to downplay the fact that there are genuine problems within the libertarian movement, most of them having to do with a—not universal by any means, but still far too prevalent—willingness to cozy up to the right. I wrote this shortly after leaving the DC libertarian scene, and I still think it's a fair assessment of where things are at. https://www.aaronrosspowell.com/p/toward-a-healthier-libertarian-movement
