Thanks for your reply. You enfuriated me whilst also giving me a chuckle. Well done on that.

The anarchist tradition has unilaterally pertained to a socialist position. The 'classic' writers I mentioned are echoed by all serious modern anarchists including ACists (yes I have read from ACist sources too).

If I dig up 5 names of Anarcho-Capitalists then have I rebutted you?

[/ QUOTE ]

No. But you would struggle to name a single anarchist thinker whom proposes capitalism and free markets who has gained the notoriety and respect of the forementioned anarchists.

If you'd like to explain *why* these writings should make us question AC, feel free.

I should hope they would challenge your opinion. It is the purpose of much of their work afterall. I have certainly found some of the more coherent and thought out responses on this forum to have challenged my view in instances.

Some of us actually evaluate what is being said, and do not just assume that since someone stated the position that zasterguava approves of that it must be worthwhile.

So allow the OP to evaluate and not restrict his/her learning to ACist ideas by dismissing the forefathers of anarchism as teenage angst victims?

[ QUOTE ]
Well first of all this is wrong; or at least, grossly exaggerated.

[/ QUOTE ]

It is not wrong or grossly exaggerated... It's fact and it would be no depriment to any ACist to acknowledge that.

[ QUOTE ]
For starters, OP specifically asked about AC. The only one being close-minded here is you, who is aimlessly attacking positions that someone specifically asked about and others attempted to explain.

[/ QUOTE ]
It is evident that the OP is extremely ignorant of anarchism as demonstrated by his/her blurring between distinctions between ACism and actual anarchism. One can suppose a thread with the title "Can someone educate me on anarchism?" would yield some responses about its forefathers, traditions and history and not only revisionist opinion dismissing everything else.

It's pretty amazing that you actually think that; let alone say it out loud.

I don't suppose you have gone through all my posts but I have shown a lot of interest in ACism and if anyone asked me about anarchism I would be sure not to be completely dismissive or censory concerning ACism (as you all have demonstrated towards the main branches of anarchism).
