Rejecting government is not the same as rejecting society at all and the only reason I can imagine you think they are equivalent is the Marxist brainwashing you must have received in what we call our educational system.

That being said, the problem with Libertarianism is that you have to have a society that is actually capable of it, i.e. one that is both sufficiently versed in Austrian economics to reject the temptation of more and more government at the voting booth and sufficiently altruistic to maintain a solid sense of community and (voluntary) charities and committees and so on. America actually checked these boxes for most of the 1800s I believe, but no longer.
