Ancap/Ancom

AnCap: slang shorthand for “anarcho-capitalist.” Essentially, the most radical wing of libertarianism. Ancaps are anarchists, so they believe in a lack of social planning and leadership, BUT they still want capitalism. They believe that this would lead to the best citizens having the best life. Pretty much everyone other than AnCaps believe that it would lead to society working like organized crime, i.e. brutal, violent, and benefiting the few over the many even more than capitalism currently does. AnCaps use a flag that is half yellow and half black, generally divided diagonally.

AnCom: slang shorthand for “anarcho-communist.” AnComs believe that any state power is inherently oppressive, and that all ownership should be public. Unless you dig into theory and such, it can be difficult to distinguish AnComs from regular communists. Like Antifa, they use red and black flags and symbols.
