The only Person who finds this desirable is a Person who thinks wealth will Transfer over from our current system to that one and they will Just be their own little Duke in their area because they own the protection Agency.
Honestly I suspect most AnCaps are knowingly doing a bit. They know AnCapism is bullcrap, what they really want is to regress back to feudalism so they can be an Earl who gets to have Prima Nocta with the peasant girls but they know that looks bad so they just advocate for an ideology that would essentially lead to that. They’re just doing feudalism with extra steps.
The patron saint of ancaps, Murray Rothbard, was 100% doing a bit. He was being a complete contrarian and trying to make other academics mad. Like one time another professor asked him to name a few historically anarcho-capitalist societies and Rothbard answered exclusively with societies that used slavery, like medieval Iceland. He wasn’t being serious. He didn’t believe it would become a real society either, he was just an asshole.
Modern ancaps seem to be mostly deep level internet obsessives, so I do believe they buy into the ideology. I don’t think they consider the full implications, but there is a massive overlap with ancaps and pedophiles. Or like those weirdos who move to Panama or Chile to do their stupid little projects where someone gets shot.

definitely the “dark enlightenment” weirdos who basically just advocate for neofeudal technocracy somehow layered over libertarianism. ex Peter Thiel
