Why Cypherpunks Shouldn't Vote for the system of their own oppression

The issue I'm having reading this thread about the US Erections is this
list is ostensibly Anarchist and I don't understand why it's infested
almost exclusively by Libertarians. Libertarians CANNOT be Anarchist ...
because they believe in government. Small, but they BELIEVE that the US
political system actually works in the interest of the people, or it can
be made so.

Not exactly, There are "anarchist libertarians" and "minarchist libertarians".  I was one of the latter, before 1995 when I discovered/invented my AP system.   Afterwards, I realized not only that having no government was possible, it was essentially inevitable.
Note:  It is, strictly speaking, incorrect to say:  "Libertarians CANNOT be Anarchist ...because they believe in government."Libertarians believe in a certain set of limits to people's relationships and interactions with other people.  A Libertarian may believe that a small government is tolerable, and maybe still necessary; other libertarians may believe that a stable anarchy is possible.  (As I now do.)
