Winning in the free marketplace of ideas, which is 100% for sure free and not in any way rigged, it's right there in the name, why does everyone keep asking that
They don't, that's why they push the "anti-authoritarian" part while actively ignoring the fact they've pictured militias with guns that kill people.
What liberals are doing, and have been doing for a while, is taking Lenin's quote which applies to individuals and trying to make a collective version of it:
During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it.
They are coopting entire collectives of people, the CNT, EZLN, etc. Real revolutionaries that exerted real violent authority, instead blunting and robbing them of their revolutionary character.

Libertarian Socialists: But what if the reactionary consents?!? (to being shot)
It's just horseshit theory. The "different aesthetics" line is basically alluding to the "fascism with red paint" line that dipshits use.
