    After clicking some random pages I'm pretty sure I saw more people with more "Social Libertarian points" than you have. But you are probably the most right-wing anarchist around here yes.

    Hate to break it to you bro, but you can't be an anarchists and a capitalist at the same time. Anarchism is on the left by default.

    Only if you consider anarchism to be opposition to hierarchy, which is not the literal meaning. Anarchism is just abolition of the state. No state needs to exist in a capitalist economy.

    Capitalism needs the state in order to maintain privet property rights.
    Think of it as something like this: The pig needs the master and his dogs to keep the wolves away.

    I think a well armed farmer could keep the rights to his farm.

    Come now you can't just make some rights disappear with the state. Just as you can have an anarchist militia to provide for your defense.

    Anarcho-Capitalists don't advocate militias, the advocate "Depute Resolution Organizations". Which is basically another state.

    Sounds more like occupancy rights.

    Obviously the views of some anarcho-capitalists aren't going to invalidate the concept.

    I really haven't seen any Anarcho-Capitalists advocate a militia, those guys want to privatize everything.
    And they really don't fall into line with most anarchist when it comes to the use of violence. They still have that ruthless and aggressive mindset of the egoist anarchist movement. (After all, Anarcho-Capitalism is basically egoism without the mild socialism.)

    The concept of anarcho-capitalism is just as unlikely and non-viable as any other brand. The integrity of the concept is equally as solid, as well, however.

    I would attribute that to your personal bias against particular anarcho-capitalist people (Rand, and I don't blame you) and certain viewpoints within that community. But anarchism is defined simply by abolition of the state. And anarcho-capitalism can certainly fit that definition.

    Almost every single anarchist will tell you that anarchy does not allow capitalism. Groups are defined by themselves.
