Don't tread on me unless I'm too chickenshit to make you pay.

That's what it means. It's just that ancaps usually dream of a situation of some widespread ancap ethics and ancap solidarity, so that "making them pay" is possible. While IRL it's not. Solidarity is hard for humans. Building it on the ancap basis is even harder because ancap just doesn't address human herd instincts.

The proper political ideology IMHO is bog standard ancap+Georgism logically, but with socialist aesthetics and dynamics. Something similar to anarcho-syndicalism and Trotskyism, but with the individual part more pronounced. These are not really contradictory to each other, because the right libertarian part here approaches rules and logic and feedbacks, while the socialist part approaches projects. These are different layers of the same system, they are perfectly compatible. Like L3 and L4 in computer networks.
