    Of course it’s satire. Do you think a driver found parking, got out of their car, and took that photo? Of course not. They have places to be! Urgently! Like sitting at the next red light.

        You aren’t kidding.

        In April 2021, Kauffman was given access to Libertarian Party of New Hampshire (LPNH)'s official Twitter account soon after the state party was taken over by the Mises Caucus. Kauffman later made tweets on the LPNH account that received controversy, such as by calling for child labor to be legalized, for the Civil Rights Act to be repealed, and for the Guantanamo Bay detention camp to be reopened “so that Anthony Fauci and every governor that locked their state down can be sent there, never again to be allowed inside of the United States”. The pro-child labor tweet specifically received pushback from 2012 and 2016 Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson, saying “This isn’t what libertarianism means to millions of Americans”. The tweets later partly resulted in the resignation of the national Libertarian Party leader Joe-Bishop Henchman. Kauffman defended his actions by saying the tweets were good for libertarians, and accused national party leadership of being “woke neoliberal globalists”.

        Wow. You know you’re wild when even the Libertarian Party is like “Whoa, chief. Pump your breaks.”

        Oh god, I took a peek and… Not surprised to see he’s a raging racist and a cryptobro, who wants “less democracy”.
        What a train wreck of a person
