Libertarian Chic[edit]

I'm not sure this section belongs in the Radical chic article and I propose that we either remove it, or move it to its own page or a subsection of the "libertarianism" page. Yes, it's a term that's been used in a handful of articles, but not in relation to "radical chic." In fact, when I googled "libertarian chic" and "radical chic" (in the same search), the only hits were from blogs and chatrooms, not from any reputable articles.

A key component of radical chic is that it's embraced by "celebrities, socialites, and high society." Nothing in the two articles cited in the libertarian chic section suggests that it's similarly "fashionable." — Preceding unsigned comment added by VirgilGilmour (talkcontribs) 00:15, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Generally, I'm opposed to removing information from wikipedia, and I think the idea of libertarian chic is interesting, so my first thought would be to give it its own page and include a link to it on the Radical Chic page under "see also." At the same time, however, I'm not sure that the concept deserves its own page - a search for "libertarian chic" returns fewer hits than "conservative chic", "green party chic", "liberal chic", and/or "muslim chic".

In the meantime, there's a lot of irrelevant background information (e.g. who Piers Morgan used to work for) that I'm going to remove, but please revert if you disagree. Thanks! --VirgilGilmour (talk) 00:02, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

==Radical vs Terrorist I see these as two different terms. Radical seems like a precursor to political correctness. Terrorist is really appropriating things for pop culture reasons. I would like to see these two turned into two different articles that reference one another as needed. Jaldous1 (talk) 00:11, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am going to remove the section on "Libertarian chic" as it is out of place and there is no evidence it is in widespread use.--Jack Upland (talk) 18:13, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
