Agorism and Ancap arenβt mutually exclusive.
Discussion
Please explain
To my understanding, Agorism is simply not involving the state in the market. Not seeking their approval or informing them of what you do, ideally including not using their currency. Itβs a strategy to minimize state involvement in your life and a way to strengthen a parallel branch of the market, which strengthens communities and weakens the state.
Anarcho-capitalism is a worldview that benefits from the agorist strategy; anti-aggression that embraces capitalism as a straightforward human relational system that respects property rights and facilitates human fluorishing.
Capitalism is a dirty word to all leftist ideologies including Agorism because capitalism facilitates the emergence of hierarchies through manipulation and regulatory capture. Agorist use words like "entrepreneur" and "innovator" instead.
The tactics you speak of is called "counters economics"
"Counter-economics"
Iβve never thought of Agorism as a leftist ideology π€ can you give your definition of Agorism?
Regulatory capture is not an inherent part of capitalism. It is a feature of state capitalism and incompatible with Anarcho-capitalism.
As to hierarchies, I suppose that depends on what you mean. Aggression-based hierarchies are incompatible with Ancap.
Having a hierarchical structure like βboss and employeeβ within a business, on the other hand, is likely, as contracts like βif you do x work for this company you will be paid y amount by z dateβ is completely voluntary and acceptable.

Agorism (based on my study of things) is just the recognition that we are a trading species. That the heart of society is rooted in trade & in social interactions (as opposed to anti-social interactions). Social interactions meaning those that are voluntary & mutually beneficial. Govt being predicated on anti-social interactions (initiatory violence, coercion, & theft) are destructive to society & to human flourishing. So the idea is to "be the change you wish to see" & engage in peaceful & productive social interactions (trade) that undermine(s) the anti-social influence of the State.
There is nothing more complicated than anti -government. It's a legitimizing of government by diagnosing each and every machination against natural law. As Confucius stated in his Art of Governing. There is written law and unwritten law. Unwritten law is virtue.
My eye skipped over βmanipulation.β Iβm not sure what you mean by that.
