Oh good, my right to not get murdered is now tied to my job! If I quit or get fired, I could get shot in the fucking head and nobody would give a shit! That sounds fucking awesome!
If I did not want to get murdered, I would simply contract with the Houthis to shut down the Gulf of Adan until the killing stopped
Even from a capitalist standpoint, who would take the risk and try to start a small business in that context? Hell, who would work for a small business if monopolies are rewarded and Peppino’s Pizza can’t afford to arm its staff with AR-15s?
They’re more naive than the strawman of us “We will legalize crime and suddenly no one will ever do anything bad and we’ll all sing kumbayah now that no one is ever told what to do!”

This dude’s imagined world must have zero unemployment and constant violence because 30% of the population is private cops preventing eachother from doing cop shit. Efficiency
constant violence
zero unemployment!?
Well, the only barrier of going from unemployed to “”“private cop”“” in Ancapistan is owning a gun and having nothing to lose, so that tracks.
Can’t wait to have a toll booth on every street.
Legitimately one of the reasons for the consolidation of state authority.
Yankee libertarians love to imagine their first-principals social experiment, completely oblivious to the fact they’re blatantly reenacting parts of early colonial history in suburban New Hampshire.
I drove through that town pretty recently and yes, there are still bears roaming around
…oh shit, I just assumed they’d have given up by now and conceded to real organizing. What do they expect will happen when the more aggressive sorts of bears and large predators take notice?
I am 100% convinced that this is a high effort bit dunking on ancaps and imo moving performance art as well
can you be convinced that this is so high iq its indistinguishable from the views of Actual For Profit Sovereign Citizens
this was made by someone here making fun of yesterday’s libertarian robbery image, right? …right?
Nope, followup image posted by the same guy
Ask this chucklehead how this is better than what we have now? This sounds actively more inconvenient and convoluted, so clearly the free market in its search for maximum efficiency would dictate the existence of a government.
Ancaps always circle back around to creating the not-government you pay not-taxes to
This is literally just a protection racket.
Still not convinced this isn’t intentionally parodic
So when amerikkka balkanizes which states are going full ancapistan? There are some obvious answers like Texas or Florida, but what are the wildcards? Delaware? Georgia?
Ancapistan can only ever be a temporary thing. A monopoly on violence will always form and whoever has a monopoly on violence becomes a defacto government. Power grows out of the barrel of a gun.
Honestly they’ll probably be some weird incoherent version of state that is christofascist mixed with libertarian. You’ll have laws enforcing their religion but also rent-a-cops on every corner.
I’ve been saying this for a while. Texas would immediately sell its government to the Sinaloas or whatever other cartel wins the auction. The whole libertarian Texas pride thing that the billionaires put on is theater. The exact moment that Texas balkanizes and loses the dollar, everyone with a high enough net worth will instantly leave and then sell the coast to Saudi Arabia, and then everywhere else to cocaine cartels.
It is impossible to tell the difference between parodies of libertarianism and actual libertarianism.
I’m very open-minded, I believe people who want a society like this should be put on an island and allowed to follow their hearts
