I'm not really an anarchist, but I do think it's important to distinguish between living breathing human beings, as opposed to the social and cultural structures we impose upon each other. I am not my property. You cannot 'violate' me by stealing or destroying the things I 'own'.


Theft and property damage aren't inherently violating individuals.

To answer your question, clearly some HNers are anarchists.
