In this video I debunk "Libertarian Socialism" and go over why it is a self contradictory and nonsensical ideology that relies on flawed and outdated understanding of theory to pass muster.

Libertarian Socialism comes in many forms, but they are all flawed in the same way - they do not actually respect property rights, and gladly give those rights to the state under the misguided belief that they are actually giving it to some "Collective".
