I just checked Reddit to see if this headline was there, and I didn't find it. At least not near the top anywhere. Isn't that strange? /s

I only know because I interned there and it's something they talked about. Maybe it was always preceded with 'civil' I just don't remember that as well. The big issue amongst the workers when I was there was that in principle they supported Citizens United, and most of the employees did not support it in practice.

Just adding my experience to the topic, not sure why I got down voted for it. I'm not trying to push anyone to be libertarian just pointing out other ways the definition can be used.

I would like to throw out there that the ACLU is a libertarian organization that would likely line up with the majority of the beliefs of Lemmy users. With that said I understand most people aren't using libertarian in its 'correct' meaning as the ACLU does.
