And Thalycine, you're right, I jumped to conclusions about your friend. I figured that that statement was at best ignorant, at worst dishonest. I guess I hadn't considered he could be making a lighthearted condemnation. But although I want to, I'm not going to make a simelar lighthearted condemnation of, say, catholics, to illustrate my point on how this is not helpful to the public discourse.

Maybe I'm getting too uptight here. I think the point you were trying to make is that there are many definitions of anarchy and that some people ignore some definitions while hi-lighting others. To be fair though, you might have to know the folks at circleA before judging them as cynically marketing to idealists and trustfund bike punks.
