This is what has happened with feminism, libertarianism, and they are trying it with anarchism too (anarcho capitalism and national anarchists). Some people evidently have this mentality of "fairness" which says that one must allow anyone who calls themselves a feminist, or an anarchist, to have a right to that label. I think this is part of the plans of the status quo: they wish to trick us into using our own feelings about equality and fairness against us, so we will alow a fox into the henhouse (i.e. an anarcho capitalist or a capitalist feminist into the anarchist or feminist movements). Dont be suckered, folks. - JH
