Libertarianism is insufficient as most people will be led easily. They will not take freedom. Freedom is hard work, freedom is frightening. Neoreaction follows from libertarianism with a more secure possible future. Technology provides wealth and being with your group provides security in society.

Freedom is something regularly demanded by those who don't have it.

Division into mutually suspicious groups is anything but a guarantees of security...its the major source of conflict.
