    This is not quite genuine.

    Anarcho-capitalists generally don’t like corporations, either, they just believe that the state plays a crucial role in keeping them afloat, through patents, bailouts, and corruption. They commonly believe that without the state, the markets will generally revert to many small individual actors.

    This is unlikely to be true, however, as the economies of scale by themselves heavily reward massive corporations, and private police and military will likely allow them to stronghand their opponents.

    If we are serious about promoting left-wing ideas, we should take our opponents as they are, and not build strawmen for ourselves to ridicule.
