Many of the things communists agitate for in mixed-economy States would get them shot in their own dictatorships. The current fad in democracies is to infiltrate nascent libertarian organizations and persuade any suckers present that inspected jurisdictional boundaries are baaad. The obvious reductio argument for this is that wholesale importation of foreign terrorists and infected herds of cattle is goood–but this is never the preferred approach. Even birds are smart enough to know there is something wrong with a snake climbing the tree to approach their nest.
Imagine a burglar infiltrating a homeowners’ association and persuading the members to remove their front doors, leaving only the openings. Though difficult to imagine anyone liable to go along with the plan so baldly stated, social pressure can make it happen. Several infiltrators join the association in cahoots, then issue comments like “I sure saved on electricity since removing the front door.” This is reinforced with “me too” rejoinders and appeals to the virtue of gregariousness over “isolationism.” Soon homes can be burgled without so much as a by-your-leave. That is what has happened to the National Libertarian Party more than once.(link) Back then it was Republican infiltrators wrecking the LP in retribution for the 1972 platform having handed the Supreme Court the language that became the 1973 Roe v Wade decision.
By the late 1970s Libertarian publications contained ads offering “Anarchist Pamphlets,” while unemployable cognoscenti poured forth assertions that closing the gate or inspecting border crossings is an act of aggression and a breach of ideological consistency. Shills are swapped in to replace actual libertarians loath to remain in the company of suckers and cretins.(link)
Voters find themselves confronted with platforms that demand “children’s rights” to be used as catamites and uninspected open borders entry of religious terrorists in suicide vests showing no identification. The resulting fake Libertarian party is promptly tarred and feathered, the Kleptocracy lustily resumes its asset-forfeiture looting with both hands in the till, two snouts in the trough and First Responders™ shooting kids with qualified immunity. It has happened here and is happening again now, thanks mainly to communist anarchist infiltrators passing themselves of as “libertarians”.
