Agorism

Agorism is the practice of counter-economics and the ideas associated with that practice. Agorist ideas assert that Libertarian philosophy occurs in practice, in the real world, as Counter-Economics. It was first proposed by libertarian philosopher Samuel Edward Konkin III in 1975.

Agorism (based on the principle of counter-economics) promotes withdrawing from the state and using counter-economic activities to minimize what a person contributes to the state in the form of taxes, license fees, and so forth.

Hmm... I'm anti the conflating of anarchism and libertarianism, but I agree that forming "pockets of freedom" amidst the fascism is the only viable strategy for building a better world. I'm curious enough to read a bit of this and see where it goes.

To me, Anarchists, Libertarians, Ancaps and Cypherpunks are natural allies. Methods and ideologies differ but the goals are similar. I am willing to cooperate with anyone from "left-wing" to "right-wing" as long as we fight against the state and for decentralization.
