    They come to some of the libertarian/ancap subreddits for more than just trolling. I’m not really a propertarian. I don’t believe In retributive justice. When it comes down to it, I’d choose to live in a leftist community. I help friends and family and strangers when I can and I believe we have an ethical obligation to do so. We should end corporate liability protections and destroy our corporate structures that make top heavy multinationals a thing, much less a profitable thing. Also, IP is theft.

    I’m not willing to force you, or anyone else, to do what I want with violence and that’s why I’m an ancap, not a leftist.

      It sounds like you really are against capitalism as we know it. Capitalisms main trait is that it’ll force any reformed system back into a capitalist ran false-democracy. We already have the libertarian/ancap system but with an illusory democracy and a barely meaningful state. You could say as the system gets worse, we get closer to a true ancap/libertarian system. If you think things are getting worse as capitalists weaken the government, then you disagree with ancap ideology.

      Liberal ideology is about reforming capitalist systems so that they don’t end up controlling the government and ruining the ecosystems. Socialist ideology is about democracy in the workplace, which i think would correct many problems and reduce dependence on NEEDING govt regulation as the workers would rarely vote to pollute their own community.

      I don’t really know why you call yourself an ancap. The freedom parts of ancap ideology are stolen by the capitalist part, which is why anarchists like myself reject capitalism as mutually exclusive with any form of freedom at the individual level. Remember that standard capitalism is about totalitarian work structures, literal wage-slavery.

      I think your views on this subject are good, but the ideology you call yourself by doesn’t match most of your actual views.

      And without a doubt, IP law is some of the most fucked up law to exist. ugh
