> You can be libertarian or centrist, you can not be both.

[I would like to introduce you to the political compass.](https://wiki2.org/en/The_Political_Compass#/media/File:Polit...) It adds an additional dimension to the incorrect belief that libertarians must be left or right wing. Of course even this is a gross oversimplification of how humans think and vote.

> Also developers and geeks are left wing fairly commonly. You write as if all geeks and developers were right or something. They are not.

Developers and geeks are more often libertarians. They are not more often left wing. I suspect you believe this because you are conflating left wing with libertarian. My Polish dev team is very right right, but very libertarian.

> That is direct result of practicing taboo topics like violence and normalizing them. A lot of effort was put into making them more aggressive, so success. Mostly on the right, contrary to what you are trying to imply. The violence aggression and censorship are much more common there.

The violence and censorship on the left is the fault of the right? This is superficial, tribal, and unfounded. Without any kind of substance, it's hard to even engage with this kind of opinion.

No, I said that right is more violent then left. Consistently so. That is result of right trying to make right more violent and aggressive.

One thing libertarians are decisively not is a center. They are not middle of the road group.

Yes, libertarians happily and frequently merge with right including far right. That does not mean geeks and developers are universally on the right or libertarians. Some are and they tend to think they represent everyone.
