Your premise is wrong. The root of Ancap is classical liberalism, that is to say, it is still a rationalist metaphysics. This means sacrificing yourself to serve a system of truth. For Ancap, individual rationality is subordinated to mathematics and capitalist market system. This is its moral nature. So Ancap and classical socialists are essentially the same kind of intellectuals. They see the market as a virtue that can save most people, not as a tool of crime and war. So they are actually some sad people.

The same is true of socialist intellectuals. It is necessary for us to understand that socialism is one of the forms of capitalism. But why can't people understand it? For example, like the propaganda strategies of some socialist countries, they attribute all immoral factors to capitalism. It has a source of Paris Commune, which is the dichotomy of "good" and "bad". If socialists are good people, then capitalists are bad people - they are greedy, selfish and blood sucking, so they must be knocked down. But in fact, the leaders of socialist countries understand very well what this morality means. It means expanding labor production and making the country strong. That's why Puritanism affected socialism as well as capitalism.

But such propaganda actually scares the poor and makes them more compliant. This includes some evil images - such as hell and Vampires - created to scare the poor. It's not true. The capitalist about Satanism is not true, its purpose is to plant booty and political incitement. Americans clearly understand this, but they pretend not to know that capitalism is rooted in Puritan morality and workaholic. They just want to take advantage of the socialist Puritan moral tamed labor force.

As for the crime syndicate you mentioned, it's another thing. The secret association of the poor has no obvious capitalist orientation, but in order to survive, they have to go to the road of crime. And it is clear that it has had an adverse effect on the rule. So for capitalism, this is still a governance problem: buying, using, dividing and striking. However, it is undeniable that in the process of crime syndicate's professionalization, there appeared pure criminals who were obedient to capitalism and threatened the revolution.
