I'm unclear on your definitions for conservative and libertarian. I believe you are giving republican v.s. democrat ire more credibility than any other tribal feud is due. Your second link appears to conflate equality with freedom and anarchy, while these might be considered opposites. It also conflates criticism and differing views with oppression, which is to deny freedom of expression. Freedom of expression necessitates freedom to offend and hurl insults. It seems nobody remembers that to spew insults and ignorance defiles the person expressing hatred and the recipient might reconsider internalizing this sort of person's feelings
