anarcho-capitalism is actually corporate fascism

If they didn't blatantly steal ideas from the left and twist it to support rich people, where would they get ideas? Have you stopped and considered how mentally bankrupt they are?

Yes, and I think that’s the joke here.

Back The Blue supporters jamming to Rage against the Machine for decades then suddenly getting upset at the band.

Having "less government" eventually crosses a threshold into having "no functional macro government at all".

What you do after that threshold is entirely open ended.

Anarchism is not owned by one political group, the ideation of what comes next is. (In leftist groups, collectivism via willful participation, focused on meeting the needs of all members of the group. In right groups, what amounts to libertarian bartering and more insular communing.)

That's what I thought. The meme is backwards.

One of the best movies I've seen in a long time! Great acting, music, writing, costumes, concept, locations. Proper cinematic experience!

What movie is that from?

It was insanely good! And no one I know went to see it!

Ancaps are not ideologically consistent.

Why is the Gadsden flag placed alongside a thin blue line flag? Those symbols are mutually exclusive.

You should tell that to the endless sea of car bumpers and flagpoles I see flying both those flags and a Trump flag.

Standard libertarian/ancap combo. Don't tread on me (the Gadsden flag), tread on my enemies (the thin blue line flag). The valknut signals who those enemies are (blacks and immigrants) just in case the thin blue line by itself wasn't explicitly racist enough.

I've seen this in the wild. I always ask myself "who do you think does the treading?"

The yellow and black flag is the ancap (anarcho-capitalist) flag. The rattlesnake is a libertarian icon and says "don't step on me". Bitcoin was built out of a libertarian idea that the government was to blame for the 2008 GFC because they somehow regulated the banks too much, so a decentralized digital currency was the best way to get around that regulation. ETA: the black and white US flag with the blue stripe is the "thin blue line" flag, flown by supporters of the police, typically a symbol used by the right wing of America. The three interlocking triangles form the valknut, a symbol used by ancient Germanic people's, and currently used by people who identify with Germany and the Vikings; white supremacists make up a large group who fit this description.

The red and black flag is an anarchist flag, a combination of two older anarchist flags: the black flag and the red flag. The ancap flag is descended from this one, replacing the red with gold (because gold is a very old and widely used form of currency, and money good, government bad). The purple and black one is the anarcha-feminst flag, and they also use the pink and black flag, but it's primarily seen as the queer anarchist flag. I'm sure I don't need to explain the LGBT+ flag. All Cops Are Bastards (ACAB) is a popular slogan amongst anarchists because cops are the strong arm of the state, and as such Black Lives Matter is a movement that a lot of anarchists strongly identify with and support.

Top panel: Gadsden flag (no step on snek!) with anarcho-capitalist black stripe, Bitcoin logo, "blue lives matter" boot-flavored US flag, "better dead than red" anticommunist Gadsden flag, and a tri-something-or-other that's a Norse symbol co-opted by Nazis who are legally prohibited from using a swastika. Altogether: Ayn Rand's fanclub.

Bottom panel: black power first, feminist... power fist?... "all cops are bastards," self-explanatory BLM, three flavors of anarchism, oddly subdued anarchism circle-A, and a transgender flag with what I think is the same oddly subdued circle-A getting lost in JPG's chroma subsampling. Even though this is a PNG.
