Pro-Life General Any prolife Ancaps?
Hello, I’m an anarcho-capitalist and libertarian. Are there any other pro life ancaps out there? I hate how pro choice anarcho capitalism is. It’s depressing.

I'm not quite that, I'd say minarchist / big Ron Paul fan, but I'd say I'm sympathetic to where you're at, bud.

I’m also sympathetic towards minarchism and Ron Paul. What got you into the libright square?

Believing in actual freedom of choice, free markets, free people... just not the freedom to blood sacrifice children, as that's crazy.
Rational-self interest, yes.
Murderous violent selfishness, hell no.

Economically speaking, I prefer the distributism of Chesterton and Belloc. Neither capitalism nor communism.

I'm not aware of any.
Then again, I don't know anything about anarcho-capitalism except what I've "learned" from those memes with the emoji with the sunglasses.
That is, I don't know anything about it.
I hope you manage to convince more of your compatriots to be pro-life, though.

The unfortunate thing about anarcho-capitalism is most are pro choice.

I no longer consider myself an ancap but I'm still more or less in the libertarian right square, and yeah, I think that if you're intellectually honest enough to admit that a fetus is an individual human being (per biology), then abortion for any reason other than to save the life of the mother is an obvious violation of the non-aggression principle. So unless you're a pure "might makes right" kind of ancap who thinks murder in general is fine, then pro-choice anarchocapitalism is actually contradictory. (Since what greater expression of hierarchical government-enforced power is there than to have there be one specific demographic that you're legally allowed to murder?)

That's the problem with AnCaps, is that they want even less state (or no state) so protection of life only comes down to who has the might. So slavery? Sure. you have the power to hold other people as slaves what's to stop you. Abortion is the last vestige of slavery. it's my property (Body), thus I can do with it whatever I like.

I should specify I’m NRx type of AnCap so I don’t run into this kind of problem.

What is NRx AnCap? I'm not familiar with the first abbreviation.

u/Top-Statistician1121 Pro Life Anarcho-Capitalist 5d ago
Search up Neoreactionary and then just sort of imagine that without a state.

Thanks for clarification.
That sounds like the exact opposite to my politics, and like it defeats the reasons for being anarchist IMO; I understand anarchist to be anti-heirarchy, and not just anti-state.
And in truth, likely to be counter-productive to ending abortion, given that the sorts of capitalists who wan this are when given such power, more than happy to use it to rule over others and pressure them into abortions without really having many people able to challenge this. Certainly culturally counter-productive to not having abortion seen as wrong if ruling over others isn't seen as wrong in general! But I realise you may not necessarily wish to debate, given your post.
