What the left gets WRONG about Anarcho-Capitalism: We do NOT believe that altruism is ethically wrong, nor even that it is sub-optimal.
We have no quarrel with VOLUNTARY altruism. We do not believe that we have any right to forbid or regulate it.
What we oppose is altruism that is coerced, that operates for the benefit of those who mandate involuntary altruism by others. Such forced "altruism" [sic] is often performative and/or operates as a bribe that buys political support...at the cost of the autonomy and self-determination of those enslaved in order to satisfy the needs and goals of others.
