There is no such thing as true. Libertarianism. Just many diverging branches of opinion. With common concepts. I hate to have to use a religion example but kind of like how there is no one true Christianity. Just a bunch of Christian sects. It's kind of like how every shade of gray from black to white is not a color. Just shades and variations. If you would have any questions for me I would be happy to answer them from my perspective as a minarchist.

Thank you for the offer. I don't have questions for you. Just wanted to point out that I think it's understandable that people, including me, tend to be hesitant to believe that a Libertarian or Centrist doesn't turn out to be far right on the political spectrum.
But for me, the political US as a whole seems to be skewed right. Both parties are right-wing to my European eyes so even a 'true' centrist, in between those two, ends up far right.
