Libertarianism original referd to anarchism actually. The modern usage of ultra-capitalist nonsense comes from people intentionally redefining the word cause they were mad that Liberalism no longer referd to what they were doing

They're doing the same thing now with Anarchism, hence Anarcho-Capitalism.

Libertarian still means anarchist pretty much everywhere, the US is the only place I know where it doesn't. Ancaps don't really exist outside of the US too at least not in any numbers to be relevant.

To be fair, AnCaps are irrelevant in the US as well, the GOP and DNC swallow the vast majority of mainstream politics. Everything else meaningful is grassroots.
