Ancaps aren't anarchists any more than buffalo have wings. Anarchism is the rejection of hierarchy, and capitalism is inherently hierarchical.
I don't necessarily disagree, but I need clarification how capitalism is inherently hierarchical. I know that for example starting from a state where everybody has the same "capital" things tend be be distributed unequally because more capital grows at a larger rate than less capital. But this is more something that emerges from capitalism rather than an inherent property.
Humanity is inherently hierarchical.
That's a huge claim. Do you by any chance have a review paper on that? I'd guess that if that's the case there should be plenty of anthropological evidence that early hunter gatherer tribes were hierarchical.
capitalism is a system of production in which the means of production are held as private property by a capitalist class. with the abolition of the state will necessarily come abolition of private property, so capitalism cannot exist in anarchy.
Well if it naturally gravitates to inequality, l would call it an inherent property.
