    So when amerikkka balkanizes inshallah which states are going full ancapistan? There are some obvious answers like Texas or Florida, but what are the wildcards? Delaware? Georgia?

      Ancapistan can only ever be a temporary thing. A monopoly on violence will always form and whoever has a monopoly on violence becomes a defacto government. Power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

        Texas ancapistan : everything instantly get bought by Chinese billionaires, the CPC nationalizes their capital, Texas becomes part of communist China

      I've been saying this for a while. Texas would immediately sell its government to the Sinaloas or whatever other cartel wins the auction. The whole libertarian Texas pride thing that the billionaires put on is theater. The exact moment that Texas balkanizes and loses the dollar, everyone with a high enough net worth will instantly leave and then sell the coast to Saudi Arabia, and then everywhere else to cocaine cartels.

      Honestly they'll probably be some weird incoherent version of state that is christofascist mixed with libertarian. You'll have laws enforcing their religion but also rent-a-cops on every corner.
