Ancaps are not ideologically consistent.

I would hesitate to call this only an inconsistency; it's really more of an example of cognitive dissonance.

I feel like we shouldn’t bully the dead husk of niche ideology. It must feel terrible to have virtually zero support for your politics and frustratingly pace around in the anonymous niche web communities because everyone in real life would just laugh.

It must be hard to have such views and grasp at straws daily reading some same scraps of Wikipedia with examples where for 56 days the system worked as intended.

I'm not gonna feel sorry for a bunch of dudes who fantasize about being the next Kyle Rittenhouse.

Mind you my comment isn’t exclusive to ancaps. There are tons of ppl screaming in the wind their whole life and dying without even realizing how stupid and misguided it all was. This is tragic, extremism is a cult for isolated from society. The last sliver of hope of a tortured mind

Would you mind clarifying exactly what "niche ideology" you are referring to? It's not immediately clear to me.

EDIT (2024-08-10T19:15Z): I think this comment of yours clarifies that you are referring to ancaps?

[–] Emmie@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I refer to all weird online political views. Bloodthirsty leninists, self righteous ancaps, remote and depressed collapsniks and all else not fitting in the society and desperate for some form of hope in the quasi theological salvation of dusty political manifestos.

You would seldom find them irl unless they already took ar15 and are going for it. A natural extension of school shooters except the whole society is the class. If someone starts to lecture you on some maoism or the like better try to get on their good side

I mean ... ancap ideology is not about having support of this kind anyway. Which matches stoic philosophy somewhat.

There are flaws to ancap ideology, even terminal ones, but you are not pointing them out.
