First mistake is believing Democrats are leftist. They're also right of moderate, but not quite as right as Republicans. Libertarians are also not really on the spectrum as we know it either. We have no liberal parties that are capable of making a difference.

"Libertarians" are absolutely on a simple right/left scale, and it's the right.

They're economically right but socially left.

No, they aren't, and they never will be while their philosophy is based on the thoughts of billionaire simps, race theorists, modern slavers, and pedophiles like Mises and Rothbard.

A socially left libertarian is called an anarchist.
