    Should also add that a lot of libertarians in reality tend to be more of the “I want the freedom to repress others” people, eg wanting homeschooling (which can increase abuse), opposing measures that would improve every person’s quality of life (such as universal healthcare) etc.

    Anarchists on the other hand, tend to be more often on the socialist or communist kind, in where they favour the abolition of hierarchy and thus favour an egalitarian society, by abolition of private (but not personal) property.

      Yeah there is a weird contingent of libertarians who are very close to just fascists who hate taxes. It’s very weird but I attribute it to the political magnetism of Trump and similar fascist leaders.

      They aren’t all like that though.
