Good luck. I sometimes wonder if these people come from another planet.

While both libertarians and anarchists are opposed to governments, libertarianism tends to encompass right wing capitalist values whereas anarchists to encompass left wing socialist values. It's much more than semantics.
I have posted this quote elsewhere but it is perfect here:
"Liberty without socialism is privilege and injustice; socialism without liberty is slavery and brutality."-Mikhail Bakunin

"Anarchism stands for the liberation of the human mind from the dominion of religion and liberation of the human body from the coercion of property; liberation from the shackles and restraint of government. It stands for a social order based on the free grouping of individuals...." Emma Goldman

But, in the real world...

@phxbillcee . . .but in the real world anarchism is a challenge to authority and hierarchy. More of a work in progress or a moving target than an end goal of "anarchy" as a state of societal order. I think one of the things anarchists are best at, is calling out abuses of power.

Nailed it!

Hmmm. Not quite. I'd say Milton Freedman and Peter Kropotkin have differing ideas of the world. Granted, mush time has elapsed. Freedman is a libertarians capitalist and Kropotkin, was a leftist anarchist.
