That’s like saying being a circle is perfectly compatible with being a square. Liberals are useful idiots at worst.

Any Rand is not considered a philosopher by most scholars. You might as well cite Donald Trump.
Rape isn’t an edge case. 26,000 rape victims have been forced to give birth in Texas in just 2 years (Source).
In total, the study estimates that 519,981 rapes occurred in those 14 states and 64,565 of them resulted in pregnancy. Researchers further estimated that 9% of those pregnancies occurred in states with legal exceptions for rape, while 91% of them occurred in states with no exceptions.
Texas, a state which has no exceptions for rape or incest, was at the top of the list with an estimated 26,313 rape-related pregnancies, over four times more than the next closest state, Missouri, at 5,825.
No. Philosophically, abortion is a litmus test for libertarianism, where bodily autonomy reigns supreme. The idea that a government can force you to give birth is logically incoherent.
Again, even if you believed that a fetus is an actual person, that person cannot live in someone else’s body against their will. Libertarian philosophers would find that utterly preposterous.
Unshockingly, yet another person claiming to be a libertarian is actually the exact opposite. Imagine if when people lied they got struck dead by lightning. Bam, every political problem the world has ever known is fixed almost overnight.
To be fair, genocide is nowhere near as bad as a man wearing a dress or something.

The idea that a bunch of conservative religious nutjobs who regularly kill LGBT people and rape children are “fighting against colonialism” is absolutely comical.

Can you briefly explain why we would have wanted to avoid the civil war? It freed the slaves and killed lots of slavers, didn’t it?

By definition, a citizen is guilty of treason when he gives succor (aid and comfort) to his nation’s enemies. Musk gives a lot of succor to America’s enemies, he succors them real hard, if you know what I mean.
Edit: Brace yourselves everyone, the Putin/Musk apologetics have begun.
Since when is it bad to meddle with your enemies? Authoritarian regimes around the world are my mortal enemies. Why the fuck wouldn’t we undermine them at every opportunity?
Need I remind you that only 8% of countries are considered functional democracies (and that number is dropping). I’m literally open to any idea to stop the spread of authoritarianism.
