 Decentralized Capitalism > anarchocapitalism 
 Why? 
 Decentralization is a state of anarchy, no?  
 At least we have to pay for the state always. 
 What differentiates these two? 
 Marketing & branding.  
 individualism >>> 
 That is better branding, for sure. 🤙 
 Evil takes the route called "compromise"

Its anarcho capitalism for me, and I don't care what corrupted compromisers think. 
 decentralized = no leaders 

anarcho- = no leaders

we could just agree to just call it decentralization, then our critics can't use bad associations against us

just like they do with anti-fascism

decentralization is also a motte and bailey

you can't attack it for its virtue, centralization is a widely understood danger, just like fascism is a widely understood danger

 Okay fine, but I'm not calling it that. I want the absolute maximum decentralization. 
 same as antifags want maximum not fascism

i'm just saying, if you want to attract normies they like this decentralization meme

Maximum Decentralization works too 
 fren is plural          amirite?
