Then you don't understand it
maybe that just needs re-labelling to 'alt-libertarian', unless we can now take the extreme left positions and call those 'liberal'
disclaimer I'm 'soft' libertarian I guess, with a dash of Classic Liberal. Much like all political parties, I agree with some positions, disagree with others, and certain aspects stop me from ever actually voting for any of them.
'Curb gov't overreach' is the main reason if I had a gun to my head I'd vote libertarian above any of the others.
