Is AnCap a meme ideology? Has it ever existed in the real world? Because all I see is jokes about "Completely Voluntary" slaves, heroin addicted child prostitutes, McMilitias and launching recreational McNukes at anyone who violates the NAP (which can include someone accidentally trespassing on your property).

Somali is not Ancap. That is ridiculous. It is has religious/tribal structures of government and no Ancap principles.

Icelandic Commonwealth and Gaelic Ireland.

Somalia is a failed socialist state ruled by authoritarian statist warlords.

it's an awesome ideology in the way that it makes people think about politics and economics in a totally different way. i'm more hoppe-libertarian but i never pass up the pleasure of arguing with ancaps.

When? and what about Sweden?

I'm an AnCap and I consider it a meme ideology.
What is your response to other Anarchist schools that say AnCap "isn't REAL anarachism"?
>>137517044
shit, I meant anarchism*

The Icelandic Commonwealth lasted between 930 -1262.
Gaelic Ireland lasted from 650-1650
I wouldn't know anything about Sweden.

The fundamental difference comes down to "can you own property". If you can, ancap is true anarchism. If you can't, ancom is true anarchism. Whether or not you can own property mostly comes down to personal opinion, but since humanity has had property since forever, I'm inclined to say yes, you can.

Somalia had laws... It was just viewed as anarchist because the un did not recognise Al Shabab as the ruling government and therefore technically did not have a government. But in reality it had government

Sweden has never been ancap.

I looked up both of those countries and saw nothing about AnCap. Was that even possible in the middle ages?
>>137517044
ancap is the only actual anarchy and therefore redundant. you can have capitalism without anarchy, but you can't have anarchy without capitalism. other forms of "anarchy" are just angsty teenagers who think anarchy is somehow an edgey counterculture or some shit. if you don't have any rulers, then how will you enforce the anti-capitalist markets? in order to prevent free markets you need authority, and when you gain more authority than others and use it to control their behavior, you become a ruler.

I only ask because in the AnCap wikipedia article, it says the AnCap flag was first used in Colorado in 1963 and then by some AnCap party in Sweden.
