If you're so well versed, perhaps you could provide a summary as to what is so wrong about the comment?
For point 1, I would call that the use of white space rather than negative space.
Libertarian is a broad term. You have anarcho-capitalists, minarchists, libertarian socialists, etc. The least authoritarian, an-caps, do wish that everything was voluntarily. Then there those in America who I'll call…
