I was referring to the modern day social media "anarchists", yeah. I am a survivor of r/politicalcompassmemes.

I think most real world anarchists aren't arguing on corporate social media for obvious reasons. Therefore it gets co-opted by the libertarian/ancap community, the misrepresentation of the philosophy perpetuates, and then we have comments like the one I was replying to calling it authoritarian.

Yeah, that whole wing of politics doesn’t count as anarchism because it doesn’t challenge capitalism which is extremely hierarchical.
