    Either you’re talking of libertarians like me. People just shy anarcho-communist (Or at least far cry of capitalist). Or self proclaimed anti-state lassiez-faire capitalism advocating folks. Which don’t even fit the critieria for centre-left or centre even.

          Thanks for the selective reporting.

          If you actually took the time to explore the results openly, you’d find significant libertarian critique of capitalism. Libertarian socialism, for example, is explicitly anti-capitalism; obviously though, as it encroaches on people’s freedoms with wage labour, capital ownership, corporate bailouts, limited liability, etc. All the things that take something from people without their control or consent.

          If you’re seeing a lot of Dave Smith, that could be your algorithm tuned in favour of that content. While he is libertarian with drugs, foreign policy, privacy, etc. he only represents the utmost right flank of libertarianism that expresses individualistic freedoms from things like state rather than economics. Kind of like your Ron Paul kind of character that is pro-capitalism but fights to keep things like corporate control and market monopolies from encroaching on people’s liberties too much, just as with any other undesired authority.
