I don't think the right libertarian to left libertarian / anarchist pipeline actually works. Because I think most right libertarians aren't really bothered by hierarchy and structure. They only don't like "big government" as it relates to restricting business owners and entrepreneurs. The don't really care about the government abusing the rights of individual people. They don't care really all that much about human freedom, even defining freedom how they do. If right libertarians have to choose between a tax cut or slashing of some regulations versus say more rights for transgendered persons, you know which one they'll pick every time.
Where's the greentext that explains that right libertarianism is just American fascism rebranded that way because of America's founding history in liberal revolution
I'm someone who was vaguely right libertarian and became a Marxist. Became sort of kinda vaguely libertarian through interest in copyright, Free Software and buying the framing of problems as mostly lack of free markets.
Became Marxist as I thought through my beliefs and implications in support of e.g. GPL, which required me to repudiate "maximum freedom for individual regardless of the consequences to everyone else", working out contradiction of corporate interest in open source/Free Software to reduce labour and production costs vs trying to promote general social good of Free Software, MPAA and RIAA being shitty, Google/Microsoft/Apple being shitty, a little bit of personal experience and reading Marx.

There is no right-lib to left-lib pipeline. There are only libertarians turning 18 and therefore growing out of their childish ideology
