OK. So, the answer is "No". Those non-violent anarchists are NOT willing to take responsibility for the actions of others who call themselves "anarchists". Nor, it seems, are they willing to take responsibility for the damage their rhetoric might cause. So it is with Islam, libertarians, Trump, etc. Same effect, different demagoguery. We elite sophists can preen and pick at the language all day. But unless it "boils down", intact, to the language and actions of the laity, it's just as culpable as every other well-paved road to hell.
To be clear, I'm not trying to "shame" anyone. I just want to be clear about the self-contradictory nature of such things.
