You know those anachists/an-caps are racists and bigots! So many of them hurt their cause and thats why people dont flock to anarcho-capitalism or anarchy! Racists, Homophobes, bigots, and the like are not part of the an-cap community; and if associated with it is done with intent to injury such a community, so far as Ive witnessed. The reason why such groups are not part of the an-cap community or classical liberalism per se is that all of the aforementioned groups that are being connected with an-caps are collectivist ideals/groups. Collectivism doesnt work well with an-cap ideology and its preservation. While an-cap ideology tolerates such intellectual sluggishness it doesnt promote it, let alone espouse it; government and collectivism in general promote those ideologies through regulations and class warfare tactics to divide, distract, and extort. An-cap ideology ultimately works against all collectivist ideas to protect the individual through the individuals merit, the individuals reputation with each and every other individual he/she interacts with directly or indirectly. So to suggest that real an-caps can be found that are plentiful in the collectivist mentality of racism, bigotry, and other similar ideals might be a bit of a stretch; for someone holding those ideas and openly espousing them is self defeating. Is it possible that these people exist? Sure! I doubt I would label them as an-caps in the same way I would not label minarchists as anarchists. But if they are honest with themselves they wont hold these ideals for the world to see openly for long if they want to have the most options for voluntary interactions available. And if they do then they may cling to them and continue to be self limiting; but the moment they call for action against others they dislike without having been the victim of unwarranted actions by those they dislike they cease to be anything remotely close to an an-cap and return immediately to the collectivist dinosaur mentality that perpetuates the destruction of Humanity from within. This isnt meant as an attack on anyone, just an observation and my thoughts about it. -JLD ~~~ https://smashwords/dashboard/stats/375341
