As has been explained to your limited intellect before, there is a HUGE difference between Libertarian Socialism and those who are active in the Libertarian Party.

If you are too dim witted to see the difference, then there is no hope for you at all. The root of the word "liberal" is that same as in "liberty", but no one would mistake them for anything other than "socialists". Do not do the same here. It only makes you look like an idiot.

A Libertarian Socialist hates our American governments because they initiate societal force to establish and protect systems of private property.

A Libertarian Party members hates our American governments because they initiate societal force to establish and protect systems of public property.

The two differ from each other like Swift's big-endians and little-endians.

"Libertarian socialists oppose all forms of authority and social hierarchy, replacing them with direct democracy and voluntary federation in all aspects of life, including physical communities and economic enterprises. Libertarian socialists believe that productive property should be held communally and controlled democratically and that the only moral private property is personal possesions. They also reject the legitimacy of states. Instead, libertarian socialists organize into voluntary institutions (usually called collectives) which use direct democracy or consensus, with rotating, recallable delegates to higher-level federations?."

This is absolutely illogical from it's foundation. It is impossible to reject all forms of authority and then have a system based on it anyway. This is pure rubbish used to con people that are motivated by emotions generated by long winded, buzz word peppered lists of lies.
