Anarchocapitalist vs. Anarchocommunist.
Both want no government, ultimately.
Anarchocapitalists believe that the natural order of things would result in a free market economy.
Anarchcommunists believe that the natural order of things would result in a true communal society where everybody owns everything together.
After all, Marx' actual claim was that socialism would be a TEMPORARY thing, where the state owns and controls the economy UNTIL the people would see how great it was, and then the state would "wither away." Of course, that is a load of crap, but that is what they think would happen.
Both sides are skeptical that the psychopathic tyrant types would be able to push their way into controlling a no-government society.
That is where they are both likely wrong.
Clearly, the psychopathic tyrants have been doing exactly that for centuries, or longer.
But the true libertarians think that such a thing would not be possible if a large majority of the population had a philosophical libertarian mindset.
And therein lies the problem. Most people are not philosophically minded, in the way that the libertarians are.
Dunning-Kruger Effect: We all tend to think that other people are more like ourselves than they actually are.
But we are quickly devolving into Idiocracy, not Greco-Roman philosophical enlightenment.
Most people may never become philosophically minded, and the psychopathic tyrant types want to ensure that such a thing never happens.
