libertarian socialism

libertarian-A person who advocates liberty, especially in regard to thought or conduct.

socialism-The belief that all property should be held by the state or in common. Since most libertarian socialists are anarchists they believe in property being held in common, meaning anyone can use what ever they want whenever they feel like it.

Basically, while libertarian capitalists believe all force and coercion is wrong unless used to defend one's person or property libertarian socialists believe all force and coercion is wrong unless used to defend one's person, but not one's property since all property was originally founded on theft and relies on state coercion. Without state coercion capitalists would have to create private organizations (basically, miniature states) to enforce property 'rights'. Libertarian capitalists ignore the fact that companies would monopolize land and exclude certain companies, eventually leading to vast tracts of private property that function like modern states do.

Social Chaperone

This is identified as an adult who essentially baby sits another adult to keep them from embarassing themself, their family, and their friends, in public settings. This person might be in charge of limiting drinks, drugs, and flirtatious activity. This person should not be confused with a HATER as they are doing it for the benefit of said person!
Person 1: Man, Tishsa got straight WASTED for her party and doesn't remember a THING about what happened. Person 2: Well, clearly she needed a Social Chaperone but since the rest of her friends were wasted, too, she was on her own!!!

Patrick: Where's Paige?

Cara: I think she is out for a walk. She has been cooped up inside for so long, I think she needed to get out for some social instancing to be close to a few folks she has not seen for the past 3 weeks.

Patrick: I sure hope she is not doing that and she is COVIDgilent on her walk such that she wins the COVID-19 chicken all day. She's also got to watch out for that rando pedo neighbor, as he is celebrating No Pants Month.
