I asked you why libertarians are opposed to conservatism

Assumes facts not in evidence.

Plenty of threads where libertarians castigate traditional conservatives as nanny-state socialists on FR.

Look at the article that is the thread topic, it is in opposition to conservatism.

A goal that rinos and libertarians share is to defeat social conservatism.

I'd have to see those threads myself. But in the meantime I'll note that the very existence of the phrase "traditional conservatives" implies that there are other kinds of conservatives - so to oppose the former is not necessarily to oppose conservatism.
