Whomever authors all this artwork is similarly ignorant about what libertarianism is.
Apparently it's the standard dogma among the anti-freedom posters here that only libertarians hate taxes and regulations and love guns.
The most notable point of ignorance is that libertarians want no government whatsoever.
Some Libertarians express their beliefs in extremes. It is their expressions which largely form the public image. Surely there must be some way to express being Small Government, Economic Conservative, Social Liberal. The Libertarian party has done a poor job of controlling its message to project a less extreme image. This from Gary Johnson and Bill Weld is a good start -- if people get to see it.

I remember when I was a teenager and I first heard about libertarianism, for whatever reason the impression I got was that it advocated no government and no taxes whatsoever. Essentially confusing it with anarchism, which I came to understand much later in my life was an active philosophy. So yes, the difference does need to be publicized. I agree the confusion is likely still a widespread problem, as evidenced here on LF.

You obviously don't know the difference between an anarchist and a libertarian.
