[@tex] "Noam Chomsky is one of the most well-known contemporary libertarian socialist thinkers." https://www.newcriterion.com/issues/2003/5/the-hypocrisy-of-noam-chomsky https://www.conservapedia.com/Noam_Chomsky "Chomsky denied the Cambodian Genocide, claiming that the killing had been inflated "by a factor of 100."[2][25] He further asserted that the (in reality) 2 to 3 million Cambodians slaughtered by the Khmer Rouge from 1975 to 1978 were morally comparable to Nazi collaborators during WW2, and that Pol Pot's Cambodia was "comparable to France after liberation [from the Nazis]."[26]" The association of socialism with libertarianism predates that of capitalism and many anti-authoritarians still decry what they see as a mistaken association of capitalism with libertarianism in the United States.[44] As Noam Chomsky put it, a consistent libertarian [color=fff200]"must oppose private ownership of the means of production [/color]and wage slavery, which is a component of this system, as incompatible with the principle that labor must be freely undertaken and under the control of the producer".[45] Yeah, this seems like a, 'a rose by any other name...' situation. The idea of these two mixing, is a general sense is absurd and impossible. If anyone attacks Libertarian because of it's too optimistic outlook on human behavior. The idea this can happen in any extent, while still somehow completely foregoing all privatization is a crackpot theory at best.
