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.

The Spanish anarchist revolution in the '30s and the Zapatista Revolution today are examples of people trying to achieve libertarian socialism.

Social Lounge

A small, yet rather plan area at a college dorm. It is emtpy from morning until 10:00 p.m. Then, procrastinators all arrive with laptops to type papers. Also, ghetto students hook up their Xbox to play video games on the 50 inch TV. This room is usually equipped with vending machines and comfy chairs.

Let's go play 2k12 in the social lounge home slice!

Socially Disabled

Someone who is clinically unable to socialize, thrives in loneliness and solitude, typically very awkward in a social setting or in a general social interaction, and keeps very few or even no friends at all.

Did you see what quarantining alone for 11 months did to that guy? It made him socially disabled.

social curmudgeon

A person, usually of an older generation, who complains on Facebook and through comments on blogs, about the youth of today being lazy and reliant on technology. This person may also make comments about past difficulties and how "easy" younger people have it.

In other words, someone who complains about youth and technology while using the same technology to beleaguer their intended target.

"My boss routinely acts as a social curmudgeon on blogs and Facebook, by posting comments about how lazy my generation is and how we 'probably don't even know how to use a pen'"
