Tankies are more dangerous so I'm going with lolbertarians. Authoritarians can't be reasoned with. Lolbertarians I can handle.

it's not hard to talk them into it. but talking a tankie into not being an authoritarian is usually a waste of time because they'd make a shitty anarchist anyway; always making power plays and trying to take control of projects.

are you sure? some libertarians are proto-fash who can't wait to throw us out of helicopters

Fash call themselves all kinds of things to hide in plain sight. I'm talking about actual minarchists.

Yeah but they love capitalism and see any level of socialism as evil and will side with the state to get rid of us.

I looked into minarchy/ libertarianism before Anarchy. They're all ancaps and teapartiers who dream of a gated mansion with guards to keep out the poor and undesirables.

the choice is between two sets of snakes so we're literally being asked to make a strategic decision for survival and I think my chances of making it out alive are stronger with minarchists than tankies.

I think it would be about the same. They have the same tenancy to support certain power structures and party politics; just different kinds.
