This is the single most ridiculous post I’ve read on the Internet today.
“Anarchist figurehead Milei”. What are you smoking? It sounds like you think “anarchist” is synonymous with right wing “libertarian” or you think “anarcho-capitalists” are somehow anarchists, even though it’s an oxymoron.
Please 🙏🏻 I implore you, read any basic anarchist literature like Mutual Aid: A factor in evolution, the conquest of bread, Anarchy by Malatesta, Are you an anarchist? by Graeber, Anarchy Works by Gelderloos.
you think “anarcho-capitalists” are somehow anarchists
The AnCaps bill themselves as Anarchists, adopt anarchist rhetoric and policy as it suits them, and fill mass media with their propaganda. They’re the only anarchists Western countries actually recognize.

I physically can’t find them under the waterfall of Ayn Rand, Murray Rothbard, and Peter Theil books crowding out the shelf space in my local book store.

*You should stop shopping at Libertarians R Us *
I don’t need to look hard to find books by Anarchists. Most of Graeber’s work is very easy to find, and with the genocide in Palestine going on, you might be able to find a book called On Palestine by Ilan Pappe and Noam Chomsky, the latter being an anarchist.
I found both of those books, and more, at my local big box store. I can find plenty at other smaller book stores, especially co-ops or left wing shops.

Graeber’s a brilliant paleontologist and an easy read. The world is worse for his passing. But he’s not remotely as influential as your average Silicon Valley anti-government billionaire.
Pappe clearly isn’t being listened to on Gaza. And Chompsky was the fucking “Vote Joe Biden for harm reduction” guy. Not exactly a revolutionary.

I have a hard time finding a B&N still open. Nevermind the boutique leftist libraries.
Difficult when they’re [Libertarians R Us] on every corner.
I totally understand if you don’t want to give any information related to where you could be located, but can you actually provide an example? I’m genuinely curious because other than the christian book stores I’ve been to in the midwest and deep south, when visiting family or on vacation, I’ve never actually seen a conservative bookstore, much less a libertarian one, granted that was a joke. I mean, other than leftist shops, I usually see neoliberal “4 hour workweek” drivel, but beyond that I’ve rarely come across libertarian books except for Rand’s or the collective works of Adam Smith, who was more of a Liberal. Nothing like “For a New Liberty” by Rothbard.
And Chompsky [sic] was the fucking “Vote Joe Biden for harm reduction” guy. Not exactly a revolutionary.
I mean, I don’t disagree that he is too liberal, and less revolutionary that I’d like, I mentioned him because of the relevance of “On Palestine,” and the fact he and Graeber are influential to me in how I got to Anarchism.

I have the opposite experience, but I guess that’s just geographic positioning.

You are severely misguided.
Argentina’s New ‘Anarcho-Capitalist’ President Starts Slashing: Javier Milei has railed against Argentina’s government for years. In his first week in charge, he’s begun cutting it down.
