"They used the FRAUDULENTLY raised money by lying to their donor network—THOUSANDS of Americans—to go ahead and actually PAY the leadership of these supposed violent extremist groups.

"Furthermore, our investigation revealed that the Southern Poverty Law Center—on TOP of perpetuating this widespread decade-long multimillion dollar fraud—conducted more criminal activity.

They attempted to HIDE their criminal activity from our financial banking network.

They set up shell companies and entities around America so that the financial institutions that we rely on as everyday Americans were DECEIVED in believing that money was NOT coming from the Southern Poverty Law Center in the perpetration of this scheme and fraud, but rather fictitious entities they stood up to perpetuate this ongoing fraud."

Paying the KKK to act up because the supply of racism doesn’t actually meet your demand for it is possibly the most libtarded move of all time

Banning guns doesn't stop gun violence because people will acquire them illegally. And most of the anti-gun propaganda comes from commies, yet commies use guns to commit terrorism. Apparently this guy was also a radical indigenist who hated gentrification, and that's he did what he did resulting in the death of a Canadian woman and other tourists injured, including 2 minors.

Reminder that the World Cup will be in Mexico in just 2 months, yet the president claims everything is well.

This is not to berate someone. I don’t know if I’d turn AnCap if I lived in a truly Libertarian or Minarchist state. You are certainly not a threat to AnCaps today, and you are the only friends and allies in current state of affairs.

But this is literally the argument you guys are making. See any similarities with proponents of another ideology that’s been tried a couple of dozen times already?

I came up with this one after spending a few days arguing with a few people here and in another sub about the political compass quadrant. Some of you can’t seem to understand that **less coercion**≠**no coercion**, and that while AnCaps, Libertarians, and Minarchists, look similar on the surface in many aspects, the underlying idea of AnCapism is fundamentally different.

Pro State of any size is polar opposite of Anti State.

From AnCaps view - you’re not different from any statist in your core belief when it comes to imposed authority.

In a nutshell, here’s what you sound like:

- We’ll build our own electric chair and run it on 5 volts - safe and fully voluntary.

It’s like you don’t want to admit that someone always shows up trying to hook it up on three-phase 480V, and sooner or later, they always manage to get it done, usually by gradually increasing the pressure overtime.

“But we need to be able to organize to deter foreign threats”

Today, serious foreign threats only exist because people living on other territories also have governments that promised them to keep the chair connected to a 5V battery. Nuking a massive portion of North American continent to pacify freedom loving people that have no government that sticks its nose everywhere it can makes zero sense - it will result in a global climate and environmental catastrophe, plus it will destroy everything that has value here. And there’s very little true hate for the Americans, we’re not in the Cold War of the last century when people didn’t have access to information. Most people know well that overwhelming majority of Americans disapprove today’s wars, and in hindsight, many disapprove of all prior wars.

My argument needs to be more convincing, and one day I’ll make a post on this matter. For now, instead of arguing with me, a stranger from Reddit, I highly recommend you to read or to listen to some of the Robert Higgs’ work on the topic of war and state. A great place to start would be Crisis and Leviathan.

In closing, I want to say that I’ll support libertarians and minarchists both in real life and online. But this is **our house**, and you guys are blurring the lines too often. We are fundamentally different. We don’t engage in mental gymnastics when it comes to coercion. State is a criminal organization. Period.

That’s why it’s necessary to call out inconsistencies in libertarian arguments when it comes to limiting state power and to point out how similar your premise to the delusional socialists’ argument of “it hasn’t been tried before”.

Cheers.

Normie lurkers who lurk just to do this shit are also responsible for mazziep and fastseamen getting hundreds of upvotes compared to real ancap shit btw

I know Milei is Jewish, and he has every right to follow his religion, however, how is it Anarchocapitalist to use tax money from his citizens to pay trips to Israel? And his friend Netanyahu is not very pro-free speech when someone criticizes Israel, and he starts wars to benefit himself. How is supporting wars Ancap? What is Milei achieving by visiting that wall with Argentinian tax money?
