It's massively hypocritical, even if the people don't realise it right away.

If you take libertarianism to its logical conclusion you wind up with feudalism, which is anything but free.

Whenever libertarians try to take their philosophy through to its logical conclusion in practice they just wind up reinventing government only worse (or reinventing banking only worse in the case of crypto).

Well, yeah, that’s the point of corporate libertarianism.

You can’t grant absolute power to corporations without also implementing feudalism.

Of course, there are voters that think they are voting for individual libertarianism, but are voting for corporate libertarianism instead.

(Similarly, there are progressives and moderates that end up voting for corporatists.)

Do you have any examples of libertarian candidates that did not support individual rights?

		In the United States, the libertarian caucus in power since 2022 has several leaders that could be said to be against individual rights, especially if you look within the Free State movement, oddly enough. However, they narrowly avoided their candidacy in this last election. The whole thing is a mess.
