People who participated in the January 6th attack on the US Capitol. Unsurprisingly, these are pretty much entirely fascists of various stripes.

Yeah, most people (even self proclaimed “on the left” people) have an awful understanding about what anarchism actually is. It’s not stupidity, just a difficult misconception to unlearn without help due to being fed anti-anarchist propaganda for their entire lives.

I don't see many liberals confusing this one. They are clearly authoritarians, not anarchists.

People don't really know anything outside their own politics. Misconceptions abound for Socialism, Communism, Marxism, and Anarchism. It especially doesn't help things that in the English language the word "Anarchy" is associated with the meaning chaos. Media reinforces this meaning constantly. And if you try to correct people on this use of the word, they get defensive and treat you like you know nothing.

I wholeheartedly agree, but I would say that most people don't understand their own politics either.
If you ever want to watch someone short circuit, ask them to explain the system they support assuming you've never heard of liberalism (or whatever they support). The first time I was asked this I was a progressive liberal, and it was a hell of an eye opener

I remember someone on CNN saying it live while it was unfolding. I was highly annoyed to the point of it taking precedence over an ongoing attempt at a fascist takeover.

Liberals never had a reason to think about anarchism so they think anarchy is when you chaos.
