Ancap ideology, not ancap world.

Most ideologies require you only to bunch together and yell louder. Ancap is not suited for that, which is why it’s cool.

I would formulate this as “hard to achieve, so requires clearly understood principles”. Same as space travel. Or GNU/Hurd. Sigh.

Then why the fuck do I constantly see Ancaps doing this?

I’ve literally never actually seen an ancap successfully practice their ideas. I’ve only ever seen them desperately fail trying, or loudly exclaiming that they’re the smartest and bestest and all their ideas are golden (ignore the fact they’ve never even tried to put them In place, just loudly yelled complaining about the world they exist in like cats).

There is a community in Montenegro I know of trying to do that. It hasn’t yet desperately failed. It’s Russian, so may not fit you.

I also fuzzily remember a group of people planning of another such place like 10 years ago, but I stopped following them.

How is this different from any kind of leftists except tankies?

Also “never tried” is a simplification.

A group near me completely failed after their town was overrun by bears because the abolished the trash/recycling rules and the animal control department.

Literally every single leftie has a larger history of putting their ideology into practice, seen or heard of a welfare state? Democratic Socialists and Social Democrats probably built it. Every nation on earth has a Dem Soc or Soc Dem major party.

Hell even the other anarchists have spent the past century building communes literally everywhere, and they’re the second most ineffective political group after Ancaps.
