Libertarian socialism is not an oxymoron if you look at their separate meanings. Libertarianism actually originates as a leftist idea instead of the free-market small government idea that it's associated with now. Socialism is worker's control over the means of production, too, instead of social democracy/welfare capitalism with high taxes like most people associate the term with in the United States.

I'm a libertarian socialist, but I'm not really what people would consider a progressive, because that usually refers to Bernie-style policies.

Worker control of production would only happen through government efforts though in todays society which is not libtertarian lol

It wouldn't happen through government efforts, politicans get massive amounts of money from corporations and they use the police force to suppress revolt.
