For a libertarian, you sure do white knight your arse off for the lefties
Of course, there is also the fact that I am uniformly accused of lying when I post those of my views which are Right of center.
For some reason, the bulk of the posters on this forum seem to have trouble grasping that libertarians agree with THEM alot of the time and DISAGREE with them almost as often.

No, it's because you bend over backwards to be contrarian on anything Trump-related and are openly hostile to those who support the POTUS. Any 50/50 ball regarding the current administration or what most on the right hold fast to, you're going left on. It's your thing, but it's more than just "standing out from the mob," and you know it.

Some do, based on your usual behavior. I personally am just as vocal when I agree with you as when I disagree, and give props accordingly (not that you seek them, of course, but that's neither here nor there).

This depends greatly on the libertarian in question. I have a pretty dang strong libertarian streak myself, so I understand the dynamic more than most hardcore righties, but the issue here isn't that you're libertarian. You're hardly the only one on this board but you're one of the most hostile towards Trump/Trump supporters. There's a great deal of variance among libertarians. The interesting thing, though, is that in the current sociopolitical climate, more libertarian positions are closer to the center-right than that which leftists espouse.
Yet you tend to gravitate toward the latter more often than not, especially if Trump's name is invoked. That's why you're received how you are on this site.

The dude made a completely valid observation of a popular and effective narrative management tactic of the left. He used the example of trans-rights, which may very well be the looniest position of the modern SJW - a position most libertarians make fun of more than conservatives do.
And you ran here like a moth to a flame to remind us that "both sides do this", which is the level 1 excuse for the left's assholery. Notice you are the only "libertarian" here scolding the OP for daring to criticize the left.
