Nothing anarchic about that gaggle of fascists. Anarchist philosophies, as requisite, reject hierarchic societal organization. "AnCap" is not a thing. These are just your run-of-the-mill racists, fascists, and monarchists.
Fair point—I'll own that. I used "crypto-anarchist" ironically to highlight the absurdity of their self-branding. These people slap "anarchist" onto their ideology like it’s a cool sticker, but what they actually practice is closer to oligarchic tech feudalism.
Real anarchism dismantles hierarchies; these folks just replace them with decentralized scams and call it freedom. If anything, they’re crypto-authoritarians wrapped in libertarian buzzwords, using tech to consolidate power while pretending to oppose it.
