I'm an anarchist(which used to be called libertarians) and hate to see ancaps assosciated with anarchists. State actors co-opted a subset of the movement(and the entire libertarian movement) and you didn't mention that. Imagine i just talked about socialism while referencing nazis over and over.. because that's how you sounded to me.
No-one has thought of Anarchists when they hear the word "Libertarian" for over 20 years and no amount of complaining on the internet about how the word was stolen will bring it back.
Communists are exactly as conservatives call you? We need to raise awareness that language is being distorted and not just go with it.
