I tend to agree, the state fills the void created by abdication, that's why libertarians and squeemish conservatives are much worse than socialists... even communists. Socialists and communists and ineffective by themselves, they require good people convince themselves to do nothing.

It's this abdication that creates horrors, quintessential weak men = hard times.

The surest path to a tyrannical government is pearl clutching over the sausage making of law and order, and the sidelining of moral people from governance by their own virtue signals.

The irony is amusing when you really think about it.

What you are describing doesn't make sense to me. I don't think the cause is libertarian ideas. It's passive men. Yeah, there are MANY that are libertarians but there are many moderates, conservatives, and leftists that are also passive and abdicate their agency to political systems.

But maybe I am misunderstanding you.
