weird set of priorities. these bastards should have been a bit more concerned about the terror hawley's family went through last night. but, no, they had to fuck with a proud boys leader on trumped up charges. if trump fails, there will be civil war.

No. That's a word to distract from what it truly is. It's not anarchy.
It's the same old shit: Marxism, Socialism, Communism.
The selective application of rules is a basic trait of tyrannies. Rules for thee, but not for me. Even in the Soviet Union and China the roaming Bolshevik pillagers were allowed to steal, rape, murder, beat up whoever they wanted, which were primarily peasants. The powers that be allowed it to happen.
It was not Anarchy. The government has picked its side. Just as it did now.
Not gonna lie, I read that as "basic trait of trannies" at first.
Anarchy has different meanings in different contexts.
What OP describes is absolutely anarcho-tyranny, which means selectively enforcing the law. It's not a distraction to point that out.
It is absolutely not anarchy-tyranny because that is as contradictory as anarcho-communism. If it's an anarchy, then where does the tyranny come from? If it's a tyranny, then how can there be anarchy?
The government is clearly existent. It is active in persecuting people defending themselves. It is siding with a certain group of violent brown shirts. If anything, it is financing them via various means, via welfare or government employment - directly or indirectly.
There are 1000 things SHOUTING COMMUNISM yet you guys somehow come to the conclusion that the selective application of rules turns it all into something else than communism, and is therefore rebranded anarcho-tyranny. But the selective application of rules is literally part of tyranny AND communism. And NOT part of anarchy (as there would be no government to apply rules selectively).
My issue is that 1. it has nothing to do with anarchy, 2. it's an attempt to avoid calling the beast by its proper name, 3. and you hand the left so many euphemisms (including "liberal") and covers for the various things they do, which ultimately are all the same in essence. It does not help you. It confuses your own people. Thus it helps THEM.
AND NOBODY IS HISSING THE BANNER OF ANARCHO-TYRANNY BECAUSE THAT IS NOT A THING ANYONE SUBSCRIBES TO.
