"I remember a decade+ ago when every other online neckbeard was a Ron Paul type libertarian and talking about how all they want legal guns, weed, prostitutes and free markets lol. In this election, the libertarian candidate did worse than Jill Stein and nobody knew who he was."
"Ron Paul 2012, also Kony 2012. Big year."
