We know that that LP has a history of shooting itself in it's own 2A supporting foot. Our messaging gets convoluted by the liberty-flexing and anarcho-capitalism mentality, but it is because we are always seeking liberty.

Help us figure out where we should be engaging with other people who do the same. People who are seeking liberty, where do you people go? Festivals, gun shows, parking lots, hunting blinds, whatever it could be we want to find more people like you.

Have any suggestions for upcoming events where to find liberty lovers here in south central Maine?

Arrived a touch late after a town meeting this morning. Just in time for lunch break.

A reminder to all the #libertarians and #liberty minded people in #Maine: The LP Party of Maine 2023 State Convention is this coming June 10, 2023 10:30 am – 4:30 pm

Seems like things have been awfully quiet.

Hoping to get things revitalized here, any ideas/help/input is very welcomed.

Thanks everyone.

The Maine LP website does not appear to be updated, who are the candidates running in state legislative elections this year?

Hi there, everyone. I'm a radio & podcasting student at The Salt Institute for Documentary Studies in Portland, and I'm currently doing an audio piece on the original 1901 Maine flag, which was recently the subject of a bill to have it reinstated as the official state flag (the current flag, the Maine coat of arms on a blue field, replaced it in 1909).

One thing I'm interested in is that the 1901 flag seems to have popular support right across the political spectrum, from left to right. I've heard that Libertarians are also in support of it – as you probably already know, Eric Brakey has used the logo for his Free Maine organization.

I'd love to interview a Maine Libertarian about the 1901 flag and find out more about how you feel about it and why you support it. I'm interviewing some of the politicians involved and some left-leaning folks, so I'd like to also get some conservative and Libertarian views on the matter.

If you'd be up for this, please let me hear from you! You can drop me a line at alemer@meca.edu. Thanks.

So quiet

We need some lifeblood in here. I have no candidates to vote for. Come on!

Hello, fellow Defenders of Liberty!

I created this thread to tell you about another Liberty minded political community here on reddit: the Model Libertarian Party of /r/ModelUSGov. The Model Libertarian party is a big-tent libertarian organization within the larger Model US Government composed of some of reddit's finest activists and debaters. We are united under the cause of liberty and creating common-sense solutions to political issues. Our party is one of many within the model government, including but not limited to: the Socialist Party, the Republican Party, the Democratic Party, the Green-Left Party, and the Distributist party What exactly is /r/ModelUSGov ?

To explain, /r/ModelUSGov is a simulation of the US Government filled with redditors. We are congressmen, senators, governors, assemblymen, cabinet members, reporters, pundits, and justices. We debate, cut deals, pass bills, and stand on principle.

Our party has opened up a lot of new opportunities for new members to pursue. Joining our party now would mean you’d have the chance to shape the future of not just Model Libertarian Party but potentially the entire model nation. Why should I join the Model Libertarians?

• It is a great way to meet like-minded individuals, build great friendships, and grow the libertarian community.
• It gives libertarians the chance to discuss ideas and help each other out with political issues.
• It allows libertarians to challenge their positions and solidify their views with facts and evidence.
• It helps libertarians have a greater understanding of the political system, in order to better participate within the framework of real world politics.
• It gives Libertarians a chance to test their skills in political advocacy by writing bills and debating those proposed by others.
• Members can run for political office, become chiefs of staff, join the recruiting team, become part of the party leadership, or be casual commenters on the model government's politics.
• It gives libertarians a platform to spread sensible ideas on government reform.

This Sounds Great! How do I join?

To join, all you have to do is visit this Join a Party thread on /r/modelusgov and ask to join the Libertarians. All libertarians and liberty-minded individuals are accepted and warmly welcomed!

We look forward to defending Liberty with you!
