What strikes me, beyond the insensitivity to rape, is that the anarcho-capitalists there (and elsewhere too):
- don't seem to know about libertarian socialism or communism and argue as if anarcho-capitalism is the only anarchism in town (where I would argue anarcho-capitalism can't be very anarcho at all)
- haven't bothered to read the arguments by their own side. All too often I see people arguing for the "natural rights approach" without seeming to know of e.g. Friedman's thousand megawatt laser argument (basically a Sorites against that natural rights approach). And Friedman is an anarcho-capitalist himself - it's not like his argument is hidden in Das Kapital or something.
