Let's be clear, the ideology I support is, force shall never be used except in defense of self or others, and, the property of others shall be respected absolutely. That's it, as long as people abide by those two simple rules they can do what they wish, they can build ball stadiums, or hobbit holes, or just sleep on the beach, work or not work. Just don't steal and don't initiate violence
Pretty simple don't you think.
Could you summarize your ideology for comparison so we can understand precisely what it is?
I'm fine with the status quo with a few changes universal healthcare better social programs etc. I am not naive enough to think somehow we will all get along if only everyone agreed with one ideology.

What's that ideology, describe it in simple (as possible) statements. Just so we see who's ideologies are more complex and understandable, I'll give you a hint though, there are 53 titles of the US Code, divided up into sections, and paragraphs, chances are the total count of specific paragraphs runs into the millions. Then there are the department regulations based on the USC that expand and clarify. Yet someone understands that (or claims to), but cannot parse do not initiate violence, and don't steal.
Yea, I already admitted to a strong personal bias in favor of myself, not sure what your point is. Same thing as everyone everywhere pretty much, with very few exceptions - most people are just afraid to admit it. Assuming you still live in the US, why haven't you left? You have blood on your hands. Put your money where your mouth is and immigrate somewhere that never drops bombs.
But then how could they accuse everyday American citizens of being murders?
No fun in that.

We've been over this a million times. YOU MUST PAY PROPERTY TAXES.
Also, my compliance with the tenets of your agenda are being made under duress. Consent can never be rightfully given under duress.
If I don't do certain things like paying taxes you (actually your henchmen because like all statists I assume you are too cowardly to commit violence on your own) will fine, cage or kill me.
Human nature is to survive, no?
EDIT: My financial contributions are involuntary. You have a gun to my head.
Yes. I MUST PAY PROPERTY TAXES. Unless, of course, I don't own property.
Everything you accuse others of - you are guilty of the same.
What violence are you committing in the name of your beliefs? Too cowardly?
Guess what? I don't want to pay taxes either; I have to. There is a gun to my head.
Go live off the grid and follow your beliefs and quit blaming everyone else for YOUR failings.

You are not alone. It's like a perverse fairy tale to which not many subscribe. Look at the libertarian vote.
While this doesn't account for political syndicalism, Mondragon repersents how a co-workers federation that runs a certain facility may not have high revenue growth but has incredible stability and produces more than enough to provide for everyone who participates.

This I see why I became an AnCap: 2 tenets. The end.

That's putting a band-aid on the systemic problem (capitalism).
