    My understanding was that libertarian socialism was a larger set encompassing anarchism as well as other ideologies such as democratic confederalism

      Ive read this before, it’s really good.

      . In order for us to make concrete change in our social and political struggles, we cannot limit ourselves by adhering to a singular ideology. Our political and military body encompasses a wide range of belief systems from a wide range of cultures that cannot be defined under a narrow ideological microscope. There are anarchists in our midst, just as there are Catholics

      This bit is honestly why I find this conversation tedious. I’m not particularly concerned about the etymology of these terms, I just know socdem is, as it’s popularly used now, at the very least useful for drawing a line between people committed to moving away from capitalism and those that aren’t

      Also mostly what I was responding to from op was the weird assertion that it’s common that people think libsocs are pedophiles or whatever lol
