Dear ANTIFA: This is not an alt-right flag. This is an An-Cap/Voluntaryist flag. This flag is not an "alt-right-lite" flag, either.

The "Alt-Right," or "Alt-Reich," as it is often referred to these days, is an emerging movement of--speaking in general terms--"conservative," "white" nationalists fighting a self-described "culture war" against the left.

---

I put conservative in quotations above because the movement, accurately examined, is not really conservative at all. Many individuals in the alt-right wish to increase government spending via taxation, in order to pay for things such as extensive military defense and multi-billion-dollar border walls. Indeed, many individuals identifying as "alt-right" are also completely pro-police and pro-Drug War, two of the biggest WELFARE programs the state has to offer. For some reason, the irony here seems to be lost on most of these individuals.

Socially speaking, the movement could, by mental gymnastics, be argued to be conservative, but this would also be a misnomer, and incorrect in almost every sense of the word.

Though the alt-right tends to be pro-border security, anti-immigration, pro-family, and pro-monagamous pair-bonded relationships, they are also PRO-SOCIALIST (with state borders, not private property lines, defining legitimate property in "alt-right" think), ANTI-FAMILY (breaking up monogamous, pair-bonded relationships and loving families is perfectly okay if done by "the police" over illegal plants, for example, or by acts of war such as drone-bombing little kids in the Middle East), and finally, PRO-STATE (the majority of alt-right individuals, in my experience, believe in the necessity of a state to protect "Western Culture").

Sad I need to say this, but...NOT ANCAP FLAGS! source.

Just for clarity's sake, let's look over that list again:

• PRO-SOCIALIST
• ANTI-FAMILY
• PRO-STATE

Hardly a movement reconcilable with Anarchy-Capitalism, which is:

• ANTI-SOCIALISM
• PRO-INDIVIDUALLY CHOSEN VOLUNTARY RELATIONSHIPS
• ANTI-STATE

source.

So why does "ANTIFA" get it wrong about AnCaps?

---

Recently, some many members of the ANTIFA ("Anti-Fascist") movement have been equating anyone who identifies as an "Anarcho-Capitalist" with being a part of the Alt-Right movement. As demonstrated above, this is by definition, incorrect. The two movements remain necessarily, and by definition, diametrically opposed on major political and social issues. So why does ANTIFA conflate the two?

Just two total losers being "pragmatic." source.

Well, enter the "PRAGMATISTS."

There is a new breed of "Alt-Right-Lite" trolling around in both the meat and cyberspaces of our world, essentially claiming--absurd as it may sound--that one can indeed both be Alt-Right and AnCap at the same time.

Thanks to the likes of these unsavory characters, the internet is now chock-full of profile pictures with the traditional AnCap black and yellow, juxtaposed with bright red MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN hats. While these new "alt-right-lite" call for the "police to be unleashed" and for Jews to be "physically removed," the rest of us AnCaps stand by and scratch our heads, still too baffled by the absurdity of it all to be too angry about it. A philosophically-cluster-fucked clown show of this magnitude only comes around once so every often, and when it does, it always means something big is about to happen.

Like the Alt-right, this new, "AnCap-Alt-Right-Lite" movement is not something to be brushed aside without a second thought. Forget the fact that many of these individuals advocate blanket violence and blanket state force against ANYONE they deem to be "the left," regardless of infractions against private property or lack thereof, the new "AnCap-Alt-Right-Lite" team also enjoys talking about "racial biodiversity," and essential genetic differences between races which render some "superior" to others.

Dafuq is this retardation? God help us all.

This is nothing more than a bastardized version of epigentics, misconstrued so as to appear to support the legtimacy of a eugenics-based application of blanket state force/violence. To put it in simpler terms: state-legitimized racism. Now, I loathe ANTIFA as much as the next guy. I have no respect for the movement or its philosophy. It is a laughable, puerile, dangerous, violent, and completely irrational approach to the achievement of peace and liberty. That said, these folks over at ANTIFA are not that far off when characterizing some of these aforementioned "Alt-Right-Lite" types as "Nazis."

Two sides of the same, shitty, ANTI-LIBERTY coin.

My hope in writing this article is to set things straight: "AnCap" does not equal "Alt-Right." It never has, and it never will. No matter how many KEK-frog-donning profile pictures emerge sporting the black and yellow, resting above content declaring the perceived inferiority of "Jews," the necessity of border security (even for land not homesteaded or legitimately owned) [TO CLARIFY, I DO NOT SUPPORT OPEN OR CLOSED STATE BORDERS], or the virtues of gassing entire groups of millions and millions of individuals (No, I am not joking, message me and I will try to dig up the quote for you, spoken by a leader of the "Alt-Right-Light"), this stuff remains irreconcilable with AnCap principle. Namely, the axiomatic, immutable and objective reality of individual self-ownership. The individual self-ownership axiom dictates that it is always OBJECTIVELY unnatural and illegitimate (if the value/goal is minimal violent conflict) to initiate force against another individual. Screaming that "all Democrats should be gassed!" is a violation of this principle, clearly.

So, there you have it, ANTIFA. Please attack the real enemy, and not a group of people (Voluntaryists/AnCaps) who really just want to leave you alone, and, more importantly, to be be left alone by you. (If you think I should be killed for wanting to leave you alone, then you are an idiot).

Still the same OG. source.

Communism and Fascism are two sides of the same coin. As an Anarcho-Capitalist, I recognize the philosophical and objective illegitimacy of the fiat coin and toss it in the trash.

As usual, the Voluntaryists/An-Caps remain individualist aliens amongst their robotic bandwagon-bastardized "counterparts," who seem to be ever-frothing at the mouth to be part of this or that "movement," and ever-terrified to be an independent, self-responsible, self-thinking, individual.

To both the ANTIFA "left" and the "Alternative right," I say, "No thanks."
