I just watched the video. Those are some powerful, yet instinctual ideas being discussed. They go against the grain of everything I've ever known (or been indoctrinated into) about governments, and how and why free people institute them in the first place.
A lot of what the new Anarchists are preaching, harkens back to the most fundamental precepts that guided the Framers in their construction of our system of government. Ideas that came out of the Enlightenment, and then made their way into our founding documents and central agreements as a people.
Viewing our grand experiment through the eyes of the Anarchists, it would appear that the Framers only made it halfway to realizing a truly free society composed of sovereign individuals. Despite their best efforts, they still gave us a framework that could (and would) be subverted to the will of the evil, and used to subjugate the very people it was meant to serve.

Windflier,
I just wanted to thank you for posting your thoughtful response to this video. Where you state it goes “against the grain of everything I’ve ever known (or been indoctrinated into) about governments”, etc., that was exactly my initial response as well. Sure does make you think!
