Judging by movies, TV shows, video games, and other forms of entertainment, humans crave conflict and excitement. Even war.
I also see a lot of people who create drama and conflict in their personal lives even though it takes effort to do so. Things going well must bore them.
I realize the reality of day-to-day getting on with life doesn't make good entertainment, but why do people confuse "good entertainment" for "good life"?
Maybe that's why they don't want to believe a voluntary society is possible- they think it sounds boring. The conflict created by politics is much more exciting, even though it is unnecessary and ultimately harmful.
The same old, same old has been done to death. It's time for a new chapter. Or, even a new book. Not a reboot or "re-imagining", but something truly new.
Personally, I can see many opportunities for new thrills in a free society, not including the inevitable conflict with those broken individuals who will continue to want to take the lazy, evil way out. I really wish more people would join me for this adventure.
Those who want you to doubt that anarchy (self-ownership and individual responsibility) is the best, most moral, and ethical way to live among others are asking you to accept that theft, aggression, superstition, and slavery are better.

The evil, lazy way to get what you want
Archation works. It often gets you what you want-- at least in the short term.
It gives you power, dominance, or unearned property. I would be an idiot to not see that it works.
You still have no right to commit it. Not if you are freelance and not if you are working for a gang (government).
Archation includes theft, trespassing, rape, murder, fraud, trying to control other people's private property, prohibition... basically anything that a common thug or government employee would do.
Because it works, you aren't going to stop evil, lazy people from doing it. The best you can do is to refuse to lower yourself to their level, and to defend yourself from them.
