Yeah, I know a lot of anarchists in real life, and the majority were pretty chill. I've met some awful anarchist LARPers too, although I think one was a cop - he started showing up to meetings out of nowhere and loudly advocating that we do a bunch of illegal shit, so he was either a cop or a dumbass with no concept of security culture. I've only met a couple MLs in real life, one was super chill and smart (and cute tbh), and the other was, well, not the best representation lol. He showed up to some iraq war protest stuff and basically told us we needed to listen to him because "he was the vanguard", lol.
