What are the Libertarian and Anarcho-Capitalist’s views on the other forms of Free market anarchism, such as; Agorism, Mutualism, Geoanarchism (are there others?)
It seems strange to me that Geoanarchism and in particular Agorism seem to share many qualities of Anarcho-Capitalism, the Agorists describe themselves as strict Rothbardians, yet call themselves members of the Libertarian left, what’s the reason for this?
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agorism:
According to Konkin, it was Murray Rothbard’s idea to call his and Konkin’s radical free-market libertarianism “Left,” the reasons being that they wanted to use a label that was appealing to the New Left to solidify an alliance with them and to distinguish Agorists as those interested in building counter-economic enterprises. As well, the tendency of Agorists to label themselves “leftist” is partially a nod to the old French Assembly, where many of the classical liberals and free-marketeers sat on the left side of the assembly hall.
@Bronco: I don’t have much use for -isms anymore. I have more in common with my fellow man than I have in distinction no matter what -isms he may hold to. You don’t need any -isms to know that it’s wrong for a private citizen to be prosecuted for shooting an attacker breaking into his own home while the State’s police can kill an innocent person sleeping in their own home with no consequences. I don’t know what -ism it is to believe that this is wrong, but whatever -ism it is, I’m that.

Agorism is nothing more than a means to achieving anarcho-capitalism.
I believe that in a stateless society there would be major parts of mutualism incorporated into it, and as far as I know there is nothing strictly seperating anarcho-capitalism and mutualism besides the emphasis on communal vs. private efforts.
I do not understand Geo-Libertarianism.
However my favorite form of anarchism would have to be this.
F*** yea.
Voluntarism.
The libertarian left are obsessed with labels and activism, hence, the inclusion of agorism.
