Regardless of how you personally feel about AC for example, do you think so many people around here would have converted if we did nothing but perpetually bitch about the state, and did not propose a positive alternative (i.e. social order based on peace, freedom, voluntary exchange, etc.)?

I think not.

Yeah. Statists bitch about the state all the time, but still believe that it is a "necessary evil." Whether it is or not, nobody is going to change their view of it until a viable alternative is presented to fill it's place. While AC would literally fill it with "nothing," that space nonetheless is filled by the results of the absence of the state--supposedly freedom and peace--and THAT is what convinces statists to reconsider their stance.
