Libertarian socialism is an oxy moron.

No. Libertarian = freedom and autonomy (and no state) socialism = worker ownership of the means of production.

The only way to coordinate workers owning the means of production is through central planning. It’ll happen naturally in some places, but 99% of businesses start with one to a few people coming together with an idea and investing in building a company by hiring people willing to sell their labor.

Every company/producer being owned by all the workers equally is laughably unrealistic under a free market. Leaders and followers are completely different people.

who needs markets and businesses and all of that contrived whatever when everyone could just make what they need because they need it?
