    What does that term mean, I've never heard anything of the sort. Also kinda took capitalism as a synonym for right wing so that take was s***

    it's a way for right wingers to co opt anarchist aesthetics just like how they co opted the term libertarian

    hate these snakes that are the reason "politics" is so f***ing confusing

    anarchism and capitalism are two ideologies that are diametrically opposed

    i don't see how the term means anything without a misunderstanding of one or both terms

    anarcho-capitalism or american libertarianism is really just a rebranding of classical liberalism. the idea that markets are the most efficient form of organization and that the market must be as free as possible with as little regulation as possible. classic liberalism pushes for deregulation of markets and is founded on the belief that the effort of an individual to better his own material conditions creates natural corrections to improve society as a whole.

    anarchism as a whole demands the dismantling of hierarchies and democratization of government.

    allowing the accumulation of private capital and organizing society around capital means creating a hierarchy where the few people with capital would have dictatorial control over the conditions of the masses without.

    forcing people to compete in markets for necessities such as food water healthcare and shelter means the market can not be truly "free" as the value of basic human necessities will never be able to have a "true value" to find.

    deregulation of industry means that the protections people have to receive the aid they need in order to participate in society can and will be stripped away in the effort of accumulating capital. putting individuals in charge of industry without any incentives to ensure the freedom of the people means guaranteeing "anarchy" for the rich and dictatorship over the poor, which is the exact opposite of the concept of anarchism.

    again i don't see how the two ideologies are compatible in any way other than including the word "anarchy" in the name. but who knows maybe you can prove me wrong

    "anarcho-capitalism or american libertarianism is really just a rebranding of classical liberalism"

    Ima stop you right here libertarianism ≠ anarcho-capitalism. Anarcho capitalism is a very extreme form of libertarianism where there is very very minimal government. literally anything goes in anarcho capitalism besides going against non aggression principle

    "anarchism as a whole demands the dismantling of hierarchies and democratization of government"

    anarchism is abolition of the state not democratization of government

    allowing the accumulation of private capital and organizing society around capital means creating a hierarchy where the few people with capital would have dictatorial control

    how would u prevent this from happening 🤔 a government maybe?

    also wouldnt there still be hierarchys based on things like strength, endurance, brains 🤔

    "I don't see how the two ideologies are compatible in any way other than including the word "anarchy" in the name"

    Seems like u proved anarchism isn't possible tbh. You always will need a government to enforce leftist policy

    anarcho-capitalism is "anarcho" in the sense that it wants as minimal govt possible

    okay to get really semantic, anarchism is defined by an ideology opposed to unjust hierarchies. classic liberalism as based on the work of authors such as Adam Smith is defined by the literal definition you gave of anarcho capitalism.

    you would need some form of organization in order to ensure everybody has an equal and unsuppressed voice in society and agency in the way they get to live their life. it's impossible to remove any semblance of government as any organization of society means agreeing to a form of governance and if that form of governance is truly democratic and can guarantee true democracy then it would not be an unjust hierarchy.

    kinda weird semantic argument but i still don't see how the two ideologies are compatible ?

    if you would need some form of government how is that anarchism?
    anarchism is a stateless society

    anarchism means dismantling unjust hierarchies.

    if you just strip the state government and get ruled by some weird private-feudal government it doesn't dismantle any unjust hierarchies.

    and yea i don't really care what it's called i just care about the material conditions of people and how to make them better

    A state is a polity under a system of governance with a monopoly on force. There is no undisputed definition of a state.1 A widely used definition from the German sociologist Max Weber is that a "state" is a polity that maintains a monopoly on the legitimate use of violence, although other definitions are not uncommon.3 A state is not synonymous with a government as stateless governments like the Iroquois Confederacy exist.

    "The Iroquois Confederacy or Haudenosaunee is believed to have been founded by the Great Peacemaker at an unknown date, estimated to have been sometime between 1450 and 1660, bringing together five distinct nations in the southern Great Lakes area into "The Great League of Peace"."

    iroquois confederacy seems like smaller states that work together similar to the UK
