Dislikes

Being called an oxymoron

Anarcho-Monarchism, clipped to AnMon, is a theoretical form of government which combines Anarchy with Monarchy.

Anarcho-Monarchism usually leans right-wing in economic and cultural matters (partially because most left-wing anarchists can't stand the concept of Monarchy), but doesn't fundamentally have to be.

Conceptions

There have been quite a few conceptions on how an Anarcho-Monarchist society of which include:

Serious

Anarchy and monarchy as naturally allied - This is one of the simplest notions of Anarcho-Monarchy, this is the belief that the government should fundamentally be the responsibility of as few people as possible as such making an anarchy the ideal form of governance with the system most prefarable to the rule of none being the rule of one of monarchy. This form of anarcho-monarchism has been most famously advocated by the English writer J.R.R. Tolkien and the German-American Austrian-school economist Hans-Hermann Hoppe.

My political opinions lean more and more to Anarchy (philosophically understood, meaning abolition of control not whiskered men with bombs) – or to ‘unconstitutional’ Monarchy.
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien (29 November 1943)

Monarchy maintained through anarchy - Effectively a system in which you have a ceremonial monarchy residing over an anarchy. This form of anarcho-monarchism is very oftenly associated with Emperor Norton who was ~~the rightful leader of the United States of America~~ a self-declared royal in the state of California who was widely respected by the people of San Francisco while not having any legal status as the emperor.
Monarchic government without a state - This the form conception of anarcho-monarchy created by the self-described reactionary libertarian writer, Insula Qui, on her book on the subject. This approach seperates the concepts of government and of the state with the former being a body which sets and enforces rules while the latter being a body which has a territorial monopoly on violence.
In this political order, the state is eliminated, thus creating an anarchy, while governments are generally taken to be monarchical, creating a synthesis of anarchy and monarchy. Typically the monarchy is chosen through an Anarcho-Capitalist system, with the goal that the competitive and voluntary nature of Capitalism would lead to a contractual, meritocratic / aristocratic monarch.

Satirical

Every man a king, every woman a queen - Under this conception the role of absolute leadership is boiled down to the lowest level possible (the individual) creating a society in which quite literally every man is a king and hierarchy is effectively eliminated.
Anarchy maintained through monarchy - This form of Anarcho-Monarchy is effectively a normal anarchist society except there exists a monarch (or monarchs) who maintain the power to use force to stop the state from forming again.

How to Draw

Anarcho-Monarchism's design is based of a flag designed by the reddit user tutwater under the post simply called "Flag of Anarcho-Monarchism".

Draw a ball,
Draw a diagonal bicolor of black (bottom) and purple (top),
In the middle of the ball in white draw the shape of an "A" preferably in Gothic font. You may surround the A in a circle of the same color,
1. A guide on how to draw a gothic A may be found here,
Draw a yellow crown,

And you should be done.
