My biggest criticism is idealism and that humans require centuries of social conditioning to achieve a stateless society.

Or at the very least get to the point where people stop thinking libertarianism is "a crazy new idea that might just work" and start seeing it for the noncery that it is.

I mean, fair, but it's the institutions that give those people the power to enact atrocious acts with impunity, there is no genocide without an army supplied by the state and paid by capital. Large scale atrocities where always the domain of states

States represent the structure of a society, and enforce the rules that society agrees upon. Up to now, vast majority of societies have been built around concepts such as feudalism and capitalism, which are the underlying drivers that lead societies to enact atrocities.
