Many whales call themselves anarcho-capitalists which is a complete paradox. You cannot be both. They are pretty much capitalists who do not want to pay taxes, want to keep hoarding their property and wealth for themselves and be left without any state inervention.

Since the word anarchy literally just means "without rulers" you can easily be both... but I don't find it to be a very useful label so I don't use it myself. It just comes with too much baggage and introduces confusion where it need not be. Easier to just say that I'm a capitalist and leave it at that. If someone wants more detail, I can go on about how I'm the sort that has no interest in having the state rob anyone on my behalf... but over the years, I found these little debates to largely be a waste of time unless it's between two people that care about one another and are genuinely interested in exploring their differences of opinion together... always best to do it in person too, if at all possible.
