The state, then, is the very institution that puts socialism into action; and as socialism rests on aggressive violence directed against innocent victims, aggressive violence is the nature of any state.","author":"Hans-Hermann Hoppe","tags":["aggression","anarcho-capitalism","anarchy","ancap","austrian-school-of-economics","coercion","collectivism","communism","evil","free-markets","free-trade","freedom","government","individualism","initiation-of-force","laissez-faire","libertarian","liberty","nap","non-aggression-principle","politics","self-ownership","statism","voluntaryism","voluntaryist"],"id":14755,"author_id":"Hans-Hermann+Hoppe"},{"text":"Dear Anarcho-Communist,If you and I ever find ourselves in a stateless society, have no fear.

If you are not an anarchist, it means you either condone aggression, or think the state does not necessarily commit aggression. As you say you are not an anarchist, can you please tell us which one describes you? Are you in favor of aggression (like socialists and criminals are)? Or, do you think the state does not commit aggression (like children brainwashed by government schools think)?","author":"N.

Now some of them do, obviously, and I’m against that. I’m in favor of reason over whim. As far as I’m concerned, and I think the rest of the movement, too, we are anarcho-capitalists. In other words, we believe that capitalism is the fullest expression of anarchism, and anarchism is the fullest expression of capitalism. Not only are they compatible, but you can’t really have one without the other. True anarchism will be capitalism, and true capitalism will be anarchism.","author":"Murray N.
