An anarchist can identify as a libertarian if he/she supports the free market (and then there's anarcho-capitalists) - This isn't about me agreeing or not - Liberalism is pro-capitalism and socialism is anti-capitalist, so identifying as a liberal and a socialist is as coherent as identifying as a non-racist neo-nazi.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you

In most cases, these people have nothing whatsoever to say about capitalism, they're only concerned with social issues.
In that case I would call them ignorants because you can't care about social issues without being concerned about the economy, simply because
everything depends on the economic system.

That just shows that you have no direct experience with these people or how they operate.
Oh trust me I have experience and I have no intention of associating myself with them - Why would any white male want to do it anyway?

We're not all liberal. Some just don't turn out right.
