Reporting in,
 also do any of you have any ideas on defense in a stateless society? The only convincing thing Ive heard is that people to be part of the society's law they have to subscribe to a PMC/PMF and that could solve the free rider problem for the most part.

See, I'm an anarchist in some sense, or at least anti-statist. However you're arguing that nothing need be in place to prevent statism and theism. Your argument relies on a magical 100% perfect education to your way of thinking with not one single dissenter who will exist at any point in time. It relies on no religion as a given, to prevent the rise of homicidal sectarian militias; it relies on no disputes over land or resources which might lead to war and then to conquest and enslavement and coercion; it relies on no hereditary wealth building up into inherited kingdoms.

Anarcho Capitalism is only the biggest mental diarrhea of anarchism. It's far from the only massive ideological failure. The communists tried to (and are STILL trying to in China) create a society of 'perfectly educated' citizens who will 'allow a transition to a socialist society,' and predictably they failed because even attempting to educate anyone to any idea, even if it is purely and completely benign in all senses, would require a malignant and statist entity to deprive people of their freedom in the process of educating.

Anarchism and socialism are completely impossible if they rely on education and good will to keep them from collapsing in on themselves, because then it just takes one troll to topple the whole mess. It seems that only the wicked machinations of corporatism and statism are stable enough to hold true to their ideologies. That doesn't make them right; wicked usually prevails in a world populated by wicked people, but I have yet to see a system proposed for either socialism or anti-statism that isn't completely lacking in reality.
