Look into the idea of DROs, which I brought up earlier.

    I still don't get how, in Anarcho-capitalism, people would have any chance against corporations exploiting both environment and population

You do understand that right now it's supposed to be our benevolent slave-masters' job to prevent "corporations" from doing that? How's that working out for us so far? Not that well, and that means we wouldn't be any worse off in that regard without rulers, which means the idea doesn't work as an argument against.. freedom.. :D (see the absurdity?)

So if you want to compare our current societies to what might happen without rulers (i.e. in AnCap), imagine all the differences between enslavement and freedom and try to figure out which would be preferrable to us - the ones that are currently being enslaved.

If people woke up to seeing that they should not have rulers, do you think they'd figure out a way to resist would-be rulers if necessary?
