straw-man alert. It was funny though.

"If we wish to preserve a free society, it is essential that we recognize that the desirability of a particular object is not sufficient justification for the use of coercion."

To be fair, there is some truth to it.

You have to admit, it was funny.  The people who made the video obviously do not understand liberty and what libertarians are talking about.  They don't understand the free market.  They probably have never heard of Mises, Hayek and Rothbard.  I would like to see them in a debate with Lew Rockwell, Ron Paul, et al.  Your quote was well choosen.

"The market is a process." - Ludwig von Mises, as related by Israel Kirzner.   "Capital formation is a beautiful thing" - Chloe732.
