Can you elaborate on your reasoning for both of the points you raise?
I don't understand why circular economies of consenting individuals participating in trade using magic internet money are not ancap.
Also, what does oppressing the plebs mean?
The end state of large scale (whole of society) anarchocapitalism is neofeudalism. Wealthy monopolists can extract wealth far more efficiently, and simply reform as Kings. You see this manifesting as 21st century oligarchies today. “The Rent is due pleb…”.
Without protection from either the state, or smaller voluntary groups that of aligned interests; there is nothing to prevent coercive actions from the economically powerful. The selfishness of the human will always result in oppression.

There won’t be monopolies in an ancap world, so your arguments are founded on a weak base.
So, what’s your solution- shift to communism?

When monopolies on resources manifest in all layers of life in the universe, I really don’t believe “ancap utopia” would be any different.
I’m not offering any solution, let alone communism, ew. There is no solution, we are cooked.
