It is worse when you're an anarchist. Best case, they say you're a socialist. Worst case, they say you're an extremist rioter.

Both are not true, but the later couldn't be further from it.

Anarchism would be closer to an extreme libertarianism than socialism. Socialism is usually seen as an overreach of government by those who oppose it, unless they are even further left than that and want more government involvement in the economy. If people can't even wrap their head around your political beliefs, how are you supposed have an intelligent conversation with them?
