In my experience, anarcho-capitalists overwhelmingly emphasize capitalism, not anarchism. This is easy to prove: Just put one in charge of a business or project—which seems to be their goal in life—and you will find that the line separating an anarcho-capitalist from becoming a tyrant (aka “murderous pschopathic asshole”) is razor thin. I tend to be skeptical of hyphenated ideologies. For example, Neo-liberalism…which, btw, is based on the illusion that anarcho-capitalism is a form of anarchism.
I disagree somewhat. The overwhelming desire of most of the anarcho-capitalists I have encountered on the Net (going back in USENET days, the 1980s) is not to found a business or make a profit or be an asshole, but to post on social media copying tedious unimaginative pro-capitalist rhetoric.
Eliminate the assholes and rule oneself with anarcho-capitalism!
